[cherry-colored-petals]

Just to clarify (as I'm writing the day 7 and final update of Rin's EBG week of lore)

EBG! 🌸🍒 is a different alternate of the original anon sona :)

the soft patter of rain starts.

coupled with streams of sunlight, peeking in, and it ties itself into a picture of tranquility; the rain touches you, draping all of its colors on your clothing. it’s not the first time you’d stand in the middle of it all, soaked, and it won’t be the last either. (you’re also feeling as if there’s another reason… but you don’t know. well, rather, you don’t exactly recall.)

“it’s pretty, no?” a voice asks from your side. you soak yourself in their voice too. (a bit weird to think about.) “once in a while. it’s something a bit too rare for me to miss it.”

you turn your head, and lo and behold, a familiar figure. (so you say but you don’t exactly remember anything about him well.)

a thin, translucent umbrella unfurls atop of him - it coats around, covering him from the coldness. it does little to hide him, though, as his eye stares at you like you’re all he could see in the first place. eye of a night sways slightly as it, too, stares at you, brushing along your features. slowly, as the seconds dissolve, you feel your skin heat up. (he’s staring at you, that’s why. nothing else, right?)

he closes your hand in yours. all the time you spent in the eye of the storm, as kind as it had been to you, and the heat that you thought you’d lost to it had come rushing back in with that touch alone - the former all but smiles. “cute.”

his fingers stroke the back of your hand lightly, if not, a bit sensually, and that only serves to fluster you further.

the warmth in your chest ceases not, stirring. it’s a nice feeling, you’ll admit, that almost makes you yearn more for it - a feeling you don’t want to let go anytime soon. it’s sweet, in a way, sickeningly sweet. you don't know how else you can describe it, the one time words dissolve on the tip of your tongue is when you needed it most. (the effect that he’s having on you is almost too much, you’ll admit.)

it makes you happy, is all. simple. (again, why though?)

and there’s the feeling again. this time, a bit stronger, a soft haze of fog, bit by bit, dizzying your senses; it heightened the heat that seeped into your skin from his hand.

“see?” his fingertips tap your cheek. “you do these little things and you ask why i tease you a lot.”

“what am i doing right now?”

“you’re looking at me like that.”

“like… what?”

silk softens his voice, “are you sure you want to know?”

(“i do.”)

“i… i think i’m alright.”

for @aimynx!

(i’m sure you saw this at least during the ebg you were participating in; back then i was just so nervous turning off anon (as worried in a few other things) to send this in so in the end i didn’t,, heh)

I obtained Dragon Quest XI Echoes of an Elusive Age badge set! Its exclusive preorder bonus from EBG. That stuff was supposed come with the game on launch day. Boom it didn't come with the game on launch week due error stock something as I pre-ordered months ago. EBG was nice enough to send me via mail from their head office. - I don't know when I will start playing DQ XI. Same goes for other big JRPG; Persona 5, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Octopath Traveler, & many more! I'm finishing off the backlog short games lately. Best way to reduce my backlog games is gotta complete the games begin with shortest length what I know of. - #dragonquest #dragonquestxi #dragonquestxiechoesofanelusiveage #rpg #jrpg #squareenix https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo6VbszjMGf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17mq8lx9cksbv
