week two | match ceremony

Tonight, we're back in the courtyard. It looks similar to last week with the slight exception, there is now a plush couch near the stage, and a single lantern already lit above the stage. There's still food, drinks, all sorts of things available for the contestants to snack on and enjoy.

On the stage is Wei Wuxian, looking presentable in his hanfu for today. He's busy twirling his flute in hand as he waits for the contestants to show up and find their places, and when they do he'll extend both arms out, welcoming the cast.

"Second match ceremony! You're exempt from a black out tonight because you've already found one of the matches."

He'll gesture to that couch from earlier, which seems to be The Special Seat for Ringo and Furina to sit at if they'd like.

"Now, we know how this goes so let's not delay anymore! Team Wangji, it's your turn to announce your matches!"

[Edamura turns to face him, jabbing a finger into his companion's chest]

You know what someone said to me earlier this week?

[it was good advice, he thinks. something he has been carrying with him since the day of that conversation. he thinks Rom could stand to hear it]

They told me to be more confident in what I have to offer. Not as someone trying to be something else, but as myself. With everything that haunts me attached.

[POKE]

You're not unsuited for this. You've just got some baggage, yeah? You think there wouldn't be a single person in the world out there willing to help you carry it? I'd bet that there is.
