at the crocus festival
( ... )
ㅤㅤbeing with yuna was one of the few things that truly made xiaolin happy. she always was there to lift her mood -- to be the person she leaned on when she needed it most. there was a comfort, almost that of her older sister, that no one but yuna could exude. it made xiaolin comfortable. to be fair, yuna made her more comfortable than she would like to admit. there wasn't anything that yuna didn't know about her -- and xiaolin could say the same the other way. in some sense of the word, they were platonic soulmates. xiaolin was sure about that.
so, it wasn't hard for xiaolin to agree with the older girl in record speed with the softest of smiles on her face. "i would love to. i am dying to try them!" xiaolin almost cheered, jumping up and down lightly despite the cold weather. sweetbriar was a place that she often frequented with yuna -- it was where they would catch up and chat about random things. "did you hear about the gala? are you attending? i am so anxious about it! i've never been to one before .. i don't even know if my dress is approporiate."

ㅤㅤxiaolin couldn't help but find dasom entertaining. though, the word that suited her was more like silly. it wasn't necessarily in a bad way either -- the mugunghwa girl had exceeded her expectations of just being a spoiled princess. which, to be fair, she was -- but she was also somewhat like xiaolin, which she hated to admit, even if it was inside of her head.
although xiaolin was not a reporter, and she never tried to be one, she noticed the way dasom was so quick to evade the question. obviously she was engaged -- everyone in beonhwa knew that, but it was still fun to occasionally poke questions. "it is my first crocus festival." xiaolin mentioned with a hum, peeking out of the carriage to see the scenery. "i'm usually back home with my family at this time, so i've always missed them. but it's nice. i've never really talked to so many people before outside of this."
it was hard to mention her family. and, honestly, xiaolin isn't sure why she mentions them while talking to dasom, of all people. perhaps, being with someone who was somewhat similar to xiaolin allowed a bit of honesty to leave her mouth. "but, anyway, i'm not seeing anyone." xiaolin said with a smile. there was an opportunity to tease her, so, naturally, xiaolin took it. "why? are you interested? unfortunately, mugunghwa girls are just not my type."

at the orchid opera house
ㅤㅤthere weren't many times in xiaolin's life where she had devoted fans. at least, there weren't any that could count. admirers? sure. occasional complimenters? oh, all the time. but devoted fans? as a singer, it was a dream she had not yet reached. and yet, for some reason, she had noticed something. something in particular -- a someone who never failed to miss a show. whenever xiaolin was performing, it was almost guaranteed to see him as well. she had noticed him on more than one occasion.
in fact, she had started talking to him after her shows before he would get ushered out by whatever knights had happened to follow him. they were never really deep talks, but they usually consisted of slight teasing from xiaolin's end. but now, once again, xiaolin had noticed something.
it was the night of her show, and yujin was no where to be found. it was slightly upsetting, to be honest. as she took the stage, her eyes scanned the room. a few regulars? check. new faces? check. staff? check. yujin? no where to be found. had he gotten tired of her performances? was she losing her edge? was he cheating on her by going to see another performer?!
xiaolin didn't ponder on the last possibility too much. she was a pretty possessive person, after all.
instead, she used her head. she performed, and then found the knights that usually chased after her. this time, however, they were also confused as to where he was. now this was mildly concerning. was he just missing? xiaolin thought back to their conversations -- running through his quickly mentioned favourites when she settled on the forest. he had mentioned it being a safe space. so, she had decided to quickly sneak out and see if he was there. and if he was, she would surely nag him about missing her performance.
as xiaolin walked through the forest, she mentally cursed yujin out. it was dark and creepy, and there were surely spiders somewhere, and she really didn't want to find out where. "yujin?" she called out, a sigh following the call of his name. "yujin, are you out here? please say something if you are, i think i just ran into a spiderweb!"

( ... )
ㅤㅤ"is it obvious?" xiaolin wondered out loud, smiling a bit as they began to dance to the music. it was obvious -- her eyes shiny as they soaked in every bit of decoration, hands on every hors-d'œuvre that she could find, and never getting tired of being asked to dance. it was obvious that it was her first one, but she planned to make the most of it. and, due to yeonsu's attendance, it was already going better than she could've imagined.
they swayed and danced -- xiaolin occasionally taking the lead and twirling or dipping him whenever the music seemed fit. "i remember when we were little and you were absolutely helpless on the dance floor! though .. we never really had anywhere formal to dance anyway." she chuckled, reminiscing on their shared childhood in which yeonsu had simply shown up one day. even if he had been friends with her sister, xiaolin never failed to tag along to what they were doing, so there had always been fond memories between them.
"have you been back home recently? last time i heard, everyone missed you."

ㅤㅤ"have you never heard me sing before?" xiaolin asked, feigning a bit of a shocked gasp and frown. naturally, the orchid opera house was almost a second home to xiaolin, so she had heard of juyeon's genius on a few occasions, and had seen it in person just once. as much as she didn't want to admit it, he was talented. "i can't believe this .. we've been working together for ... well-- the timing doesn't matter, but i'll try to be impressive."
"that is one of my favorite songs, after all." she added with a small smile -- essentially to let him know that she was just kidding. would the joke land? xiaolin wasn't sure yet. instead, she decided to stop talking before she said anything too embarrassing, and warmed up for their song. "do you know how to play the piano, too?"

ㅤㅤignorance is bliss. surely, they knew of each other -- xiaolin had seen dasom quite a few times at the opera house. they had never interacted, as such an influential member of the mugunghwa house was not the type of company that she preferred to keep. however, if dasom wanted to keep things neutral, then xiaolin was fine playing none the wiser. after all, a carriage ride in the middle of crocus was not the best place to spark up a debate.
"and you're the fourth born of mugunghwa, right? you're hard to miss." xiaolin's smile was rather forced, but she would've blamed any awkwardness on the cold that surrounded them. "is this your first crocus festival? have you done anything else tonight? i hear the baking contest seems fun." she mumbled the last sentence, not exactly sure what she should talk about. surely they had things in common -- they were both young women, but what would they talk about? did she even want to get in to deep conversations in the middle of a carriage ride with the 4th born mugunghwa daughter?
well, obviously. "are you seeing anyone?"

ㅤㅤgalas, for the most part was something that was unfamiliar for xiaolin. the word gala, deriving from the old french word 'gale' meant to rejoice, and was later turned to the word gala, which meant showy dress in old italian. now, the definition of gala means a 'social occasion with special entertainments or performances. growing up poor, xiaolin had never attended a gala before. she never had the pleasure of being invited, and getting dressed up in fine dresses and jewelry to socialize.
this time, however, she had the chance. she drank expensive champagne which left her slightly tipsy, danced and chatted with random strangers, and eventually, ended up finding one person to truly make her feel comfortable. dohwan, who had grown up just a few streets down from her. it had been a shock to see him at beonhwa at first, but they had caught up like no time had passed.
so, when she saw him, there was no thought in leaving the few people she was conversing with to run over, a smile prominent on her face. "dohwan! i didn't know you were coming. you should've told me." xiaolin said, handing him a spare glass of champagne. "want to dance? i'm sure you know how to. if not, i'll teach you!"

tw: mention of attempted murder (in a joking way!)
ㅤㅤthe yelp of the woman who slipped didn't catch xiaolin's attention. after all, everybody was ice skating -- and a majority of the people on the ice were falling: including xiaolin. what had caught her attention however, was that same woman, and a man who she presumed to be her husband, yelling at the guy who helped her up. as xiaolin slowly and rather wobbly made her way around the commotion, she saw something that she would've never imagined ever seeing.
the husband had spit in the guy's face.
the shock from everyone was apparent, as the deep gasps that left everyone's throat was louder than xiaolin's shock. had she just seen that right? if it was her-- which she was glad it wasn't-- xiaolin would surely be thrown in jail for attempted murder.
and, being honest, that is probably why with a now expert precision, xiaolin skated over to the guy who had just been spat on. the couple was leaving, and it seemed like the guy was going to let it go. however, how could he just excuse spitting?!
"hey!" xiaolin yelled, throwing her shoe at the back of the couple, almost in disbelief as she skated in front of them -- her stop wobbly and slightly uncoordinated, but it got the job done. now, she proceeded to scold them -- surely gaining more attention than the actual offense. "are you insane? you can't just spit on someone! he helped your wife! where were you when she fell on her ass?"

ㅤㅤxiaolin didn't think of herself as a rude person. she was sweet to everyone she knew -- minus those god-forsaken children of the mugunghwa, magnolia and gladiolus houses. she never outwardly said anything rude, especially to people she didn't know. xiaolin did not view herself as a rude person, mainly because she kept her rude thoughts to herself. as of now, her most recent rude thought occurred somewhat like this.
this is the guy everyone is obsessed with? he seems a bit boring to me.
and, since xiaolin wasn't a rude person, she didn't say that. she simply put a smile on her face. she had made a bad first impression already, so censoring herself was probably the best option going forward. "oh ... anything is fine! i like a little bit of everything .. though, maybe we should aim for holiday songs? it is that time of year after all." she mentioned, thinking over all of the holiday songs she knew as she tapped her chin in deep thought.
"i wonder .. what's your favorite holiday song? i'll sing that one."

ㅤㅤwell this was certainly awkward. it wasn't like xiaolin lacked people skills. in fact, she was exceptionally talented a talking to people (and driving them away), but being forced into a carriage with dasom, of all people, made things a bit awkward.
first and foremost, dasom just happened to be the youngest daughter of mugunghwa -- one of the influential houses that xiaolin very much despised. but, for whatever reason, they were both alone and wanting to take a carriage ride. was she just supposed to say no? she wasn't that mean, but that left things awkward. what were they even supposed to talk about?
"this sure is some cold weather we're having .." xiaolin said with an awkward smile accompanying her words. "you're dasom, right? i'm xiaolin -- not sure if we've ever met."

ㅤㅤjoint performances was something that xiaolin was used to. in most cases, she would sing with a band, or have dancers accompany her on stage at the orchid opera house. so, when she was asked to perform at the crocus festival in order to raise money for charities, she wasn't exactly surprised when she was told that it would be a performance with someone else. the who, however, is what had surprised her.
his name was kang juyeon, a master of instruments which had been the talk of the orchid opera house for quite a while. apparently, attending his performances was viewed as an honor, and he rarely, if ever, performed with someone else. so, of course, it was a bit of a shock to hear that he had agreed to it. perhaps it was because they were giving money to charity. for whatever the reason was, xiaolin just hoped that he wasn't mean. she couldn't deal with a rude man tonight. well, she could -- she just didn't feel like it.
so, once xiaolin had received the news, her curiosity (and general nosiness) caused her to go up to him for the first time. "so .. i didn't know you performed with other people." is all xiaolin should've said, but she always had a way of not being able to stop talking. "thought you were kind of like .. y'know, a lone-wolf type of guy. which is kind of a cliché -- not that you're a cliché, but, you just don't talk much- or maybe it's because we've just never talked-." xiaolin cut herself off at that point, taking a breath and putting a warm smile on her face.
"anyway, i'm xiaolin. i'll be singing with you tonight."
