Hello, I hope you are all doing well. My name is Hu Tao and I was curious.

Is there anyone here who might be interested in learning how to do a burial? Or perhaps might know a thing or two about it?

Please do let me know, I want to see how many people might help me restart my business! I promise that if you join, you'll be a discount on whatever coffin you choose!

[And there she goes.]

Well, I don't actually care what she did all that time ago. And nobody is here who can get on my ass about it. But it's a concern?

Eh. We're mostly hashing out the rivalries for fun? At least that's what I think. Maybe I should ask her?

[localweirdo]

I don't see why not! It never hurts to ask and especially when feelings are as complex as they are.

If worse comes to worse, I could always ask her if she loves you.

[swordofhisou]

[OH SWEET KAMI?!? Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Tenshi was freaking out something seriously at Hu Tao's suggestion. It was really sweet, but she was just imagining the 10,000 ways that'd go wrong and oh god her face was read.]

Don't worry! I can ask her I can ask her!

[localweirdo]

Are you sure? It'll take the stress off your shoulders if you ask me.

[Meanwhile here Hu Tao was, trolling away.]

[swordofhisou]

[Fuuuuuck, she's gonna have a heart attack at this right, ya little gremlin!]

I have no idea how she'd react to someone else even trying to talk to her about 'us!' I don't even know if she thinks of there as being an 'us' to talk about!

Nope, so much less stressful for me to talk to her.

Maybe after we do things. That's a great time isn't it?

[She was awful at this.]

[localweirdo]

[It's what she does best!]

All the more reason why I should ask! It'll be less pressure on you as I can tell you her reaction.

Although, I will admit, the sooner you delay this? The more problems it might cause!

[swordofhisou]

[Freaking out intensifies.]

If I promise not to delay this more than a week, will you please not talk to her before I do? Pretty please?!? I'll figure out a way to get her attention and take time to talk to her!

(OOC: What's hilarious is that this totally fits with her being crazy enough to suggest a hookup later this month.)

[localweirdo]

Of course! I'll fully expect for you to keep your promise! Otherwise, I might have to use my detective skills and track down this mysterious not lover of yours.

We wouldn't want that now, would we?

[She is having the time of her life right now]

[swordofhisou]

Totally not necessary, I promise. We definitely don't want that!

[It wasn't like Ibaraki was going to be hard to find, but she was good with her promise! Within a few days of the Tanabata festival she definitely sent the oni a call. That was going to go soooo well.]

[localweirdo]

Good because you know what the consequences are. I shall be preparing for any protentional love confessions in the near future.

[swordofhisou]

Right, nice chatting with you. I'll, uh, keep you in the loop?

[because gossiping clearly was the only way to keep the gremlin at bay? Oh fuck her life. Hu Tao might be waiting on confessions for a bit given how those two were, but well, something might happen soon. Or at least a night of somethings might happen?]
