My Self-Summary

I am nothing more than a humble literature enthusiast who has now become another guest of this resort. While I lack any exceptional skills or noteworthy talents, I am nevertheless willing to assist anyone in need. Additionally, I would like to request some book recommendations. That's all I am using this thing for.

My Future Plans

I've elected to attempt to read as many normal books found in Swan Lake (if they catch my interest). Otherwise, I'll plan to make visits to The Conservatory. Admittedly I found the giant rabbits to be rather charming.

My Talents

I have no noteworthy talents.

Favorite Books, Movies, Music, and Food

Mr. Nine is a highly acclaimed and popular author, many years were spent searching for the last volume of Legend of the Shattered Halberd. It did not disappoint. I would rank that novel among my favorites. The truth is I enjoy all types of martial arts novels. As for music, I favor Ms. Yun performances and her talents extend beyond song.

When it comes to food I prefer pastries and Yue-style cuisine. During my stay in Inazuma, I also came to enjoy the foods that nation had to offer. Mild seafood-based dishes with minimal seasoning and lighter flavors are definitely to my liking.

My Ideal Partner

Perhaps I will be fortuitous enough to cross paths with a sentient book; then the book and I can go on all sorts of adventures and get into all kinds of hijinks.

And what dynamic would that be? Anyway, I'll meet you later.

[demawn]

… Yeah, I haven’t been here all that long. I’m not used to places like this. The fun here isn’t the kind I like.

What’s wrong with it at night? You must have seen something to say that.

Yeah, if you’re okay with that. I’m Genya.

[nullificates]

or, instead of assumptions, you may think of it like this - it's a hypothesis, and we must prove it or refute it. doesn't that bring out a much more interesting topic?

i'd say i like guides more than stories! what are your tastes, what is it you found?

ah, is it a... once in never?!

[senku]

One where you think highly of him but don't want him to know it. Whether you're shy or he's the type to get a big head about it, it's none of my business.

[rainswords]

A shared experience and a shared sentiment. It's not entirely avoidable, even in places where one should find solace and serenity. If you visit the library at night it will be easier to understand what I mean. What I have seen some people may view as a coincidence, but it doesn't feel that way to me.

Pleased to make your acquaintance, my name is Xingqiu. As for the books, it would be no trouble at all, I would be happy to assist anyone who wants to enjoy a good book.

[rainswords]

A good point. There is always much to learn through further investigation if a person takes that approach. I quite like that. As for guides, well, I am sure you can guess the most popular subject to be found in the library. Not to imply it is any different when it comes to novels. So I am treasuring this particular book.

As for the books I favor, I enjoy valiant tales of adventure, of martial heroes coming together to overcome all odds.

For drinks, it is more in line with as often as required within reason, maintaining proper etiquette whilst being cautious not to offend anyone whether my role is that of a guest or a host. However, I'm free of the laws that govern those types of social functions now. Considering that perhaps you're more correct now than you would have been some weeks past.

[demawn]

Is it something dangerous? It doesn’t sound like it, but … can’t be too sure with some of what’s around here. Maybe dangerous isn’t the right word.

Yeah. It’s nice to meet someone normal.

[rainswords]

How about uncanny? At the onset of sunset, as the twilight hour begins, an uncanny atmosphere settles in with the night.

Again, I think it is better understood with experience. Perhaps I may not be so normal if I am willing to continue my nightly visits.

[rainswords]

That's a concise yet accurate and precise description of something. Well, since you aren't the type to meddle in other people's affairs there is no need to clear things up then.

[senku]

[He really is going to let it go without being nosy about it.]

By the way, what's your name? I don't see it on your profile anywhere, unless it's your username. I should probably know it if we're meeting up.

[demawn]

Uncanny, got it. There have been a few uncanny places here that I’ve noticed. That does make sense. Have you noticed the strange activity in the casino?

You’re talking about books and not kinks so you’re normal enough for me.

[nullificates]

ah, those are guides i definitely don't need!

(some of us have lived a very lively life.)

i'll keep my eyes peeled for you! i'm sure the themes will come back to the flavor of this place, but, you know! maybe you find heroes in the meantime!

ah, so shall we celebrate your freedom?!

[morarchon]

[ Well, that certainly is a noticeable pause. Zhongli silently puts a mental asterisk next to that description, then moves on.

Indeed, he doesn't elaborate further than he already has on the other people from Teyvat. Maybe another time, or with more time passed since meeting them. As for comparisons to Xiao's displeasure... ]

I don't imagine any of the Adepti being pleased by the situation, though I agree he seems that he might be the most upset.

[ Zhongli is handling about as well the most steady of them would, he thinks, though there are some others he can imagine being delighted by the change. ]

The Qixing's secretary, Ganyu—I imagine she'd be rather unhappy as well, if much more reserved.

[rainswords]

Not at all, although admittedly that has less to do with what may be found in the gambling parlor and more so that I've found no need to make many visits to that location. However, if you want to investigate the casino further, then like most I do have plenty of time to spare.

Oh. Well, that's a low bar. Most people... that's right, I have to take into consideration where we are.

[rainswords]

Given that I made the conscious decision not to include my name within my profile, then no, it won't be found there. I suppose I've delayed introducing myself long enough. My name is Xingqiu.

You know considering that you provided your full name perhaps I should have suggested calling you Mr. Ishigami.

[senku]

Mr. Ishigami is even worse than Mr. Senku.

[demawn]

If you're interested in looking into the supernatural. I'm pretty sure I noticed something strange during that masquerade but it was too crowded to tell. I'd like to look back into it, and that's at least something I know about. If you want to come that's okay with me.

Yeah. I know. Low bar but it hasn't been easy to reach.

[rainswords]

I believe I understand. Until later, Mr. Senku.

[rainswords]

Your sentiments mirror my own.

[ Although not for the same reason... ]

Even so, one book out of a thousand is worth the search. I'll do the same we'll cross paths soon, but I suppose it is obvious where I'm most likely to be found. This is my way of celebrating all the leisure time I've gained.

[senku]

[He'll work on getting rid of that Mr.]

[OOC: And I'll post a starter for their meeting on my open log.]

[rainswords]

If that's an invitation then I accept, so count on me to be there. Anytime, anywhere. Well, perhaps my availability isn't that broad, nor am I truly willing to visit every location here. How about you set a time and date, then we can reconvene?

Do you suppose there is something about this resort?

[rainswords]

[ It's indisputable that Liyue has produced plenty of willful individuals who would dispute becoming guests at the resort and would do little to hide their displeasure. Given the direction their conversation has taken, he can't help but recall Miss Shenhe and the menacing look in her eyes. Perhaps — as blasphemous as it may be to consider — even Adeptus Xiao is better suited to life at this resort compared to some people.

However, what he meant is he hasn't crossed paths with anyone expressing extreme displeasure, indignation, or on par with an Adeptus here at the resort; it's all been muted reluctance. Admittedly it's much the same for him as he diverts his focus to his preferred hobbies. ]

Perhaps not the most upset among the people of Liyue, the truth is not many people would be content finding themselves here. Isn't it the same for you and me? Even if it's just a matter of acclimating to the situation as well as having a higher level of tolerance.

[ Just how high a level? He doesn't find himself inclined to indulge as some people have, although it's becoming evident that it's not completely avoidable. He'll make the best of the resources he has... ]

[demawn]

Fine. Tomorrow night. Activity is always stronger at night… or whatever counts as night inside. We don’t know what time it really is. You ever get the chance to look out?

Yeah. Couldn’t tell you what, though.

[nullificates]

ah, i also see this as a little vacation! i'll come to you soon enough.

[rainswords]

That seems to be the common theme with the library, suppose if we were to visit more locations then perhaps this might be true of all places. There is only one way to know for sure. As for getting a glimpse of the outdoors, well, my room doesn't have windows.

[ Unfortunately he lives in a box! Maybe that's an exaggeration but compared to home it may as well be. ]

The view outside from other locations, it's static, it may as well be a portrait of a landscape.

About this resort, recall I mentioned what it caters to. Have you noticed some guests' unabashed enthusiasm? What would you say if I told you that people are somehow enticed to participate? That in some way or another all their interest turns towards that direction? Or they seem to vanish, well, there is something that suggests as much anyway.
