So we shall. [ haha. well! he will. he will try. maybe finding inspiration will be a little easier, nowadays. ] Typically, I would write about nature, or balance and harmony if I could observe it. Like many things, it's about how observant you can be of the world around you.
[ he takes a sip of his tea, thoughtfully. ] Is there something in particular you would like to write about, Lady Flayn?
I had not really thought that far ahead, if I am being honest...
[she was more excited about the concept of writing poems with yin yu than she was about coming up with a subject. but now that they're on the topic... hm.]
I suppose... I would want to find something beautiful to write about. It is the quiet, simple things that bring people strength in situations like this, even if they can be hard to find.
[ ah, good. he ends up smiling a little, encouraging. ]
I agree. [ the quiet things in life do make things a little nicer, don't they? there are things to appreciate. even yin yu, who has been more or less an emotional void for the past few hundred years, has felt the same. he may not be writing poetry, but that doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy the small things that he can. a food stall where the owners greet him raucously. the taste of hot pot in the winter. the way the moon reflects off of the water when he's out scouting.
it's the small things you wouldn't notice, unless you really looked for them. ] ...There are many things people don't notice, because they don't take the time to observe them. If you look hard enough, you can find beauty in almost anything. I think it can be quite inspiring, even if takes some practice to notice.
I am sure you must have noticed many things like that.
[yin yu is, after all, an observant person. she's not sure there's anything he won't notice, eventually.
...it's comforting to think about it that way. whatever may come during their time here - she's sure that with yin yu's help, they can get to the bottom of it.
(let me tell you, that's a wild sentence to write knowing that he's going to wind up dead in a few ic weeks.)]
Not so recently, perhaps. [ it would be nice, if being observant would make any of this simpler... solving these crimes would be much easier. then again, it's not as if many of the 'abilities' and roles and such around make it all that easy...
well. that's something to think about later, and not ruin this nice pleasant moment with. ] We can take a walk through the camp and see if anything feels inspiring, if that might help...? I find the fresh air helps me relax, too.
[ he doesn't even bat an eye, as he takes it--in fact, it just sort of feels natural. yin yu glances over at flayn, and then gives her a smile as he does.
flayn's the kind of person that makes it hard to be unhappy. a light, that brightens every room, even someone as dark as himself. ] Let's.
[and so they go for a walk! this would have been a good point to end the thread, probably, but flayn has still not been allowed the sweet embrace of death, so i'm dragging this out so i can continue invading your inbox.]

Perhaps we could visit the gardens?
