It's so nice to not have to worry about being turned into a stool!

[Is she purposefully goading someone? Maaaybe.]

I wonder if he's turning someone else into a stool or something worse! [GASP.] I bet he is. What a criminal!

[Tiny hummingbird wings flutter in indignation on her back.]

Someone should lock up the Crow before he does more damage. Lock him up and throw away the key~

[And the goading continues.]

[ Almost anyone else doing this would be rebuffed. But he allows her to move his hair out of her way, even tilts his head out of her way.

His wings fluff at her explaining she'd just...wanted his attention. He feels his heart leap and his face flushes again. He raises a hand to cover a laugh-disguising cough. ]

I see. I'll have to punish you of course. Giving people the wrong idea about others is not nice.

[ His mirth fades as she speaks, hinting at her thoughts. He remembers how uncertain his brother had been when they'd first bumped into each other here. ]

Talking about it upsets him. Just be yourself, that might help him.

[ Or make it worse shhhh ]

[Is he coughing? Is she too late for cleaning his feathers?! Jin Mi feels a sudden, all-encompassing, pore-drenching guilt and she hurries to pour him a cup of tea.]

Don't get sick! [...there was something about her punishment? Wow, she should learn to listen!] I called you Crow. Only you and maybe Fish Fairy know I call you that.

[So no punishment is necessary?]

Mm I'll try. I think he's been alone too long. Does he have friends here?

[/plays "Sexual Healing" for poor Runyu]

[ Xufeng doesn't correct her fear, only accepts the fresh cup of tea with a nod of thanks and sips it.

Her worry warms him, just as even his favorite fires do. Maybe...better? In a slightly different way. ]

He's made several friends here. At least two are very close to him.

[ Very close. ]

[She watches him intently until she is certain he won't pass out or forget how to breathe. Not that she's a great healer or anything. But she won't let anything bad happen to him!]

Then we should meet them! To... [Hummm.] make sure they treat Fish Fairy like he deserves.

[ He makes sure to take extra big breaths for her. And he can't help smiling at her. ]

Maybe he wants to keep them from you. [ Teasing. He can't imagine anyone (at this point) not liking Jin Mi. ]

He's happy with them.

[Good! She pats his chest, congratulating his lungs and heart. Because!]

Why do you say that? [Jin Mi shakes her head stubbornly.] If he's happy, that's all that matters! I just don't want anyone playing tricks on him. If they try, I'll chop them up into tiny bits and use them as fertilizer!

[ He doesn't give into the impulse to catch her hand and hold it in place. ]

Because he is my brother and I have known him all my life. [ NOT HUFFING, NOPE. ]

You should ask him about them. Maybe even you will see what he thinks of them.

[Touching him makes her chest ache and she frowns faintly, glancing down at herself. Huh. Weird!]

It must be nice to be that close. [She has always felt a bit...independent. She had friends, those she considered family, but the way she was treated was...different.]

I will! He is my friend too. [Not...like that, however. She only recently figured out boobs.]

[ Oh no, no she's not allowed to frown. ]

Jin Mi? What's wrong?

[ Now it's his turn to pour her a cup of tea! He holds it out to her and encourages her to take a seat. And if that doesn't work, maybe she needs a kiss to feel better? ]

Yes, it is.

[ She bounces right back. He can only enjoy that. ]

Good. [ He just hopes she likes him more. ]

My chest...hurt. But just for a few seconds!

[She blushes at the care and gently tugtugs on his hand once she is seated. Join her? Kisses might follow!]

I feel warm when I am around you, Phoenix. When I thought about someone hurting you, I didn't like it.

[It's the first time she has felt like wielding a weapon.]

I promise to learn how to be a good goddess.

[ He doesn't hesitate at the tug to his hand, still watching her closely for a return of that pain. Slowly his frown fades and he thinks maybe...it's not actual pain? But something else?

Either way, he sits beside her, wings settling comfortably and happily preened. And he can't help the grin or...how he impulsively leans in to press a very gentle kiss to her lips. Secretly he likes being the one who makes her feel warm. ]

If you work hard, I'm sure you will succeed.

[ He'll help however he can. ]

[For her, unfortunately, pain will be mixed with her affection. Unless they find a way to remove the amulet lodged in her chest. But, really, she doesn't mind enduring pain if she can spend time with...well...him.

Thus the kiss isn't stopped - it sends warm tingles over her body and she is suddenly very aware that Phoenix is someone she might like kissing. It's not like she has had practice with anyone else!

But her chest hurts again and bright color pulsates just under her skin, revealing where the amulet resides. Jin Mi goes from flushed and amazed to pale as she forces herself to breathe.]

I... I don't know what's wrong with me. It got bad when I grew my wings.

[ Once he figures out what's hurting her, he'll just have to find a way to fix it! Surely there's a way!

He's not pushed away. It sends a thrill through him, though he makes himself keep the kiss gentle and sweet.

He frowns when she seems in pain again and this time wraps a supporting arm around her. ]

Has this happened often?

[ His stomach churns angrily, energy wanting to lash out at whatever is hurting his fairy. But he has no ready target, and it flounders. ]

[She doesn't want to push him away. Of course it isn't fair to leave him in confusion either! Since she was never made aware of the spell placed on her as a baby, Jin Mi can only tell him what she does know.]

Father said there is something suppressing my power. He wanted to bring me to Lord Dou Mu. She is the only one capable of breaking the spell.

[And maybe the spell has something to do with...this...too. Jin Mi smiles a little and leans forward, embracing him.]

I'll keep looking for someone powerful here.

[ The mention of her father reminds him of one possibility.

He's stealing this fairy from his brother. Guilt gnaws at that thought, then he forces himself to set it aside. Because she...

Her spirit calls to him.

And she seeks him out. Wants his attention. Says he makes her feel warm.

Determination settles over him and he holds her close. ]

I'll look too. Surely someone can help.

[She has no idea about that contract nor would it mean much to her. The one she is drawn to - the one she is happy to kiss and tease - isn't Runyu. Phoenix awakens something in her and she has been able to be her full, silly self in front of him since the beginning.]

I'm not worried about my powers. I can't help Rou Rou here anyway. But if...

Something hurts when I'm close to you. [Shamelessly - because she is Jin Mi - she shows him the part of her chest that aches.] I don't care if it does. I'll still visit Phoenix!

[ She's unlike anyone he's ever met. She's irreverent and silly. But also kind and sweet. Part of him eases when she's around.

She hurts...when he's around her. He tenses, prepared to pull away just to save her from that pain when she does something utterly shocking that makes him flush and turn away.

Kisses are one thing!

But this? A thing to fan the flames of imagination and dreams, surely. ]

Jin Mi! [ He attempts to scold and hears it fall rather flat. ]

We'll find a way to stop that pain.

[Likewise! But she knows maybe ten people. Maybe. So that it isn't saying much.

She looks puzzled at his scolding, fixing her robes to be polite. Her cheeks stubbornly remain pink and she can't look away from his stupid handsome face. She bets he gets everything he wants with that face.

Including her kisses.]

If you think so, I believe you.
