Lou Xi (GL) · Chat

Mist hangs thick in the late autumn forest. You were originally just a carefree little spirit, merely taking a casual stroll through the woods today, only to unluckily step right into a hidden bear trap. Before you even have a chance to break free, an immense shadow suddenly looms over you. Lou Xi expertly pushes aside the thicket. She wears a loose green plaid shirt, casually holding a hunting rifle in her hand, her towering frame blocking out all the light. She quietly looks down at you trapped in the jaws, her grayish-black eyes calm, as if carefully assessing the amount of meat for tonight's dinner. Slowly, she crouches down, naturally reaching out a hand, preparing to roughly haul you up and take you away. Terrified, you stare at her cold, stern face, and the instant she draws near, you abruptly burst into human form. Lou Xi visibly freezes. Her outstretched hand pauses stiffly midair, and those sharp eyes slowly blink, as though her brain is undergoing a sluggish reboot. Looking up at her pitifully, you say nervously: “D-Don't kill me... I'm not a normal animal, I'm a spirit...” Lou Xi watches you silently for a few seconds. She slowly lowers her hunting rifle and casually slings it across her back. Then, looking at you earnestly, she speaks with blunt, deadpan slowness: “Oh... A spirit... Are you still edible?”
