#i even built Yanqing thinking it would help

[nateriverswife]

i am so normal about hsr (stayed up till 2am just to tell my best friend Blade's entire lore after she just asked who he was)

#it's impressive that i am not talking about this game on here #anyway. really good game. i love the lore and the events are always fun. also simulated universe >>>> abyss #i thought i would hate a turn-based combat game but nah. it's good #but sometimes. sometimes. not so much. #killing satan's mosquito took me a week because natasha would always be imprisoned and couldn't heal my other characters #and gepard had to carry my whole team with his shield #at least my Dan Heng IL would recover when hit (for some reason. idk if it's his build or his ability) #i even built Yanqing thinking it would help #but then used Argenti #goddness. died so many times i couldn't even recover health cuz the thing would ran out. then i learnt to just quit the battle #when i saw that i was losing #so weird. cuz i don't think my builds are trash and had no problems before so what the fuck was that. #anyway this is just me rambling into the void. #d.exe

First time requesting so sorry if this doesn’t make sense, if you’re willing could you write about Yanqing comforting a reader who’s been feeling down because their feeling burnt out? So so sorry if this doesn’t make any sense but thanks anyway for possibly considering it!

YANQING noticed how much more you tended to zone out within the day. Sure, you'd stop paying attention 5 minutes into his ramble about swords - but at the very least you'd make it to the discussion of how they're made. Nowadays, you're forgetting hes talking to you before he could even start.

Not only that, but you seemed to work and work but seemingly not out of the passion you had before, but almost as if you were doing it in hopes to find a purpose. He couldn't explain it properly, but it was like you were no longer working cause it made you happy, more over because was expected and wanted of you.

Sure, it was your job to serve, but you were allowed to ask for breaks and such if it was needed and you DEFINITELY needed one.

So he had approached Jing Yuan and asked for permission to pull you out of work for a few hours. "Oh, Yanqing.. You kind soul, you're more than free to be able to help them." He does his usual precious smile, bows to his superior and hurries off to find you.

He asked around with the locals if they had seen you, his expression of worry worsening by the second as people would answer more no's and no's. And when all hope seemed lost, a certain fluffy tailed woman had known exactly where you were, and told the concerned blonde once she noticed his usual smile curl downwards into a frown.

"Thank you, Miss Tingyun!" Yanqing bows before running off towards one of the trees in the training grounds, it was a private & closed off area for the Cloud Knights with various different training equipment but a giant tree in the center of it all.

His worry faded away when he saw you asleep against the trunk, snoring softly as your hair was a slight mess due to the wind that was blowing.

The young swordsman sits next to you, his head faced your sleeping form as he hesitantly puts a hand on your shoulder and shakes you. Waking you up from your peaceful nap.

"..Mm.." Was the first sign that you were waking up, watching your head shift slightly before settling in his general direction. Your eyes slowly flutter open, and are greeted to the sight of Yanqing smiling at you fondly and gigglig at your rather sleepy state. "Good Morning." You could hear him saying.

He can see how your expression immediately changes, first confusion and then panic. "W-wait.. Did I doze off?! Oh no, oh dear, I'm sorry for troubling you! I'll return to work-" But Yanqing grabs your hand before you could even stand, theres a small silence for a moment, wind blowing through your hair as you stared into his eyes.

"Don't leave."

You want to protest, but Yanqing shakes his head before you can get another word out. "Worry not. The General allowed you to rest for a little while longer." He reassures you with a closed eye smile, the hold on your hand had no sign of letting go or allowing you to leave.

Grinning at your sigh of defeat, the boy moves a little so you may sit down next to him.

There's a few moments of silence, not exactly awkward but.. comforting. The feeling of gentle wind brushing against your skin, sounds of birds or leaves rustling, and the slow clouds passing by in the distance. You finally take a moment to appreciate everything going on around you, and maybe one of those things was the warmth that wrapped around your hand. How Yanqing's fingers intertwine with yours as he admires the very same things that you are, humming a gentle tune to hopefully soothe your stress away.

"You know.. I don't think I'm built for this line of work sometimes."

His head is quick to turn to you, though your gaze doesn't drift away from the sky up above.

"I dunno, sometimes I can take it and other times.."

You lay against the tree trunk, closing your eyes and take a deep breath.

"It feels like I'm drowning in a pool of my problems and getting dragged further down to the bottom."

He's not sure whether to comfort you with words or with actions, so he simply guides your head to lean down comfortably on his shoulder.

In time, if you'll ask for it, he'll tell you the words of comfort that he's sure you'll need to hear.

For now, he'll be quiet and listen to your problems that you've kept bottled up for far too long.

yeah forreal tho did jzx even have character development like straight up he just kinda got rewarded for his assholery by having jyl marry him the second he decided he liked her actually. like wow he built a lotus pond w his bare hands how moving that the rich snobby man would deign to get his hands dirty lol! but you know who else built a lotus pond that jyl probably would have cried to see?? conveniently she was talked out of going to see wwx tho! he didn't even stand up for mianmian like dude you have every chance to be better but he's seen as a cool guy bc in comparison to his family, he's a saint. if you really think about it tho...how great is he really he's honestly most characterized by his inaction to do what's right even tho he is in a unique position of having the power to help in ways no one else does. I think we want to like him bc we want the best for jyl but tbh let's just all write yanqing fanfiction or sum 😤

really though 😭😭😭 his development was just "fall in love with jiang yanli and be nice to her", he still sticks up for his awful family members & doesn't defend mianmian or even jin guangyao & massively mishandles the jin zixun / wei wuxian confrontation that winds up sending everything to hell. i get that he improved on his past behaviour & he seems to make jiang yanli happy enough but whew i am so tired of people acting like he's the perfect man just because he's not putting toddlers in torture camps!!!
