Your gateway to endless inspiration
TMA brought my silly line drawing obsession backkkkkk
the store had been adorned with plenty of different chocolates, arranged by colors or by price. blue is the color that suits Xia Fei most - it makes him think of the sea, its unpredictability, its whims and beauty. Liu Xiao picks a blue box, golden ribbon. He hands the box to Xia Fei as he rings the coffee he's ordered. No words exchanged besides thank you, bye. He doesn't really wait to confirm whether the gift is tossed to the garbage or accepted. In a sense, it's better that way.
unprompted. ╱ @einshi.
there’s an effort to temper his impatience, holding back his frown from pulling any lower. with his arms crossed and burning golden eyes, he stares intensely at liu xiao. of course, he takes his sweet time, browsing chocolates in a high-end cafe that doubles as a chocolatier. a roll of his eyes. rich people. soft conversations and rows of confectionaries add to the calm atmosphere. but his voice certainly did not. “ couldn’t you have done this after? i have other places to be, ” a blatant lie, meeting with him was the last task on his agenda for the day, “ if you’re gonna keep me waiting, you can’t tell him i wasn’t playing nice with you. ” there’s a glimpse at the hand that chooses the sweets, but xia fei lets a sigh drag from his lips to make a point that he was on borrowed time. his time. time meant to be spent with himself after an exhausting day.
gradually, his eyes wander, passively taking in his surroundings. the shop itself was far beyond maintained. despite playful decor to fit the valentine’s theme, the design echoed bridon’s aristocratic roots. a few portraits depicting these streets from centuries past, a plaque honouring the founder. nothing flashy, but there’s a tasteful touch of historic flare. perhaps he’ll stop by again on his own in the coming weeks.
“ —eh!? ” his distracted self is the receiver of a gift box. one he never asked for, or necessarily needed - or cared to get, for that matter. “ what is this?! ” he blurted the words without hesitation, causing a few curious glances his way. liu xiao briskly takes his leave from there, but xia fei isn’t done yet. “ hey! you can’t leave me here with this! ” the click of a phone camera drains his complexion pale. he turns, noting a few heads retreating and thumbs tapping away on phones. did they recognize him? oh no… “ liu xiao!! get back here! ” the entrance bell softly chimes as xia fei pushes past, hurrying after his troublesome client…
