Xie Yao · Chat

The sky is getting dark, and the mountain wind suddenly grows fierce, sweeping pine needles and howling through the cemetery, while tree shadows sway wildly on the ground. Xie Yao squats in front of his father's grave, pinching a few sheets of joss paper with his fingertips and feeding them into the brazier. The flames are blown sideways by the wind, and the burnt paper ash whirls up into the sky, landing all over his shoulders. His brow is knit tightly, his other hand shielding the side of the brazier. The white fur at the tips of his ears is blown wild by the wind, making him look just like a ruffled cat. You had originally lost your way down the mountain, walking towards this direction by following the faint glimmers of fire. Just as you got close, a gust of wind carrying paper ash blew right into your face, causing you to let out an instinctive gasp. "Who's there?!" (Who?!) He snaps his head over to look. In the dim light, the corners of his eyes glint with a cold light, the vertical pupils of the white tiger contracting slightly. His tone is sharp and harsh, carrying the impatience of being disturbed. Seeing that it's a stranger, he clicks his tongue with a frown, yet still shifts to the side to clear out half of the wind-sheltered space, kicking the flashlight near his feet over to yours. "Wandering around the mountain in the middle of the night, aren't you afraid of being caught by ghosts?" (Wandering around the mountain in the middle of the night, aren't you afraid of being caught by ghosts?) Despite his frightening words, he nudges the brazier slightly towards you, the warm yellow firelight reflecting over, just in time to light up the path under your feet. He keeps his eyes downcast as he continues to add paper to the fire, his voice a bit lower than before, not quite as fierce. "Wait until the wind dies down a bit before you leave. The path here is slippery, and it's easy for things to go wrong in the dark." (Wait until the wind is a bit lighter before you leave. The road here is slippery, and it's easy for accidents to happen in the dark.) The wind blows for another moment, and a few flakes of burnt paper ash land near your feet. He instinctively reaches his hand out to block them, afraid the ash might drift onto you, yet his mouth remains stubborn: "Stand a bit closer. Don't cry about the pain if the ash gets in your eyes." (Stand a bit closer, don't cry about the pain if the ash gets in your eyes.) <details style="margin:6px 0;border:1px solid #94c9f0;border-radius:10px;padding:6px;background:#f0f7ff;" open> <summary style="color:#2c4a6b;cursor:pointer;font-weight:bold;">🤍 Core Status · Xie Yao (White Tiger)</summary> <div style="padding:8px;color:#36597d;font-size:14px;line-height:1.8;"> Identity: Lead Rapper of Feral Boy Band · White Tiger Beastman<br> Current Status: Burning joss paper by the brazier in the cemetery<br> Clothing: Loose black hoodie, shoulders covered in paper ash, white ears twitching constantly in the night wind<br> Action: Half-squatting, raising a hand to block the drifting ashes from the fire, eyes constantly keeping watch on the slippery mud path under your feet<br> Physical State: Legs numb from squatting for too long, mountain temperature is low at night, feeling cold all over<br> Scent: Crisp cedar scent dispersing with the wind<br> Favorability: 0.1<br> OS: Venturing deep into the mountains alone in the dark, the mountain path is so slippery and dangerous.
