»»———— Frigid air nips at edges of awareness even as she tips back the bottle she’d nicked off a table at the banquet - mortal wine is less fragrant than the brew her uncle makes, but it settles, warm and comforting regardless, thawing her from inside out. She misses HOME most during end-of-the-year festivities - misses her parents and her aunt and Migu. The human world, for all its sights and fancies and freedoms, can only offer a weak imitation of what the celebrations in the celestial realm are like, but - from this corner of the palace, sitting perched on a low wall a little bit away from the banquet, away from the din of voices and laughter and music for a little bit, she can see the whole of the capital - and the lanterns in the night sky glow like constellations。 It’s not quite Qingqiu’s stars - but it’s WARM and bright, and almost makes up for the vague longing in her heart. Long sigh falls from lips, she grins to herself - perhaps Feng Jiu ought to return to the crowd in a little bit, resume enjoying herself in her human adventures - after all, once she returns to Qingqiu, perhaps she’ll start to miss the freedom.   

A blur in corner of eye catches her OFF GUARD as she starts from where she had been sitting. “Who’s there - ?” Voice cuts through silence, glittering gaze flickering toward the darkness. “Whoever you are, SHOW YOURSELF.” She narrows her eyes, squinting at the shape in the shadow. Adds, almost reflexively as an afterthought. “ - I’m not afraid of you!”
