Flowers of Heaven 2: LiliS + Heart Soldier Senshi + WILD CITY

There’s a chirruping and giggling from around you; a peeping and chattering overhead; a clattering of hooves on the flagstones.

Gathering around you all are strange creatures. Materializing around LiliS are tiny people that have the look of being grown from plants and flowers: petal-colored faces, with leaf dresses and tunics that look as if they grew onto them, and blossom or dandelion-fluff hair. Another flock—a number of small and colorful creatures—almost like fanciful stuffed animals, except definitely fully alive and somehow capable of flight despite most of them not being winged, not unlike Aibous—gather around Heart Soldier Senshi. Then, approaching WILD CITY is… one extremely tired-looking definitely-human man who is definitely riding a horse and who is absolutely not actually a disguised centaur. The Definitely Human Man curtly introduces himself as Sheriff Pferd, and gives a stiff "welcome back," but any further questions just make him shake his head and give a long-suffering sigh.
Apart from him, none of the creatures speak, but they chitter and nudge at you like they're greeting old friends, and usher you towards a gap that's opened in the thick curtain of kudzu vines and onto a winding path beyond.

Once you cross through, the vines grow rapidly to cover the open space behind you, and the voices of your fellow idols fade from your ears. It seems as if you’re on your own, now.

❀ ❀ ❀

Here, the vines that surround your path are dotted with bright-blooming flowers, and some of the leaves seem to be brightly-colored plastic instead; the air echoes with occasional birdsong and the growls and yips of animals, though no other living creatures are anywhere to be seen.

The little creatures are carrying some things for you—the flower fairies carry a wreath of wild oats, chamomile, and hollyhock flowers, the colorful cute creatures a wreath of clematis, chamomile, and oak, and the man who is definitely not a centaur a wreath of clematis, wild oats, and mimulus. As they approach you, the air shifts in a strange way, and suddenly they have one wreath between them—all those flowers woven together into one, which they offer to you. They also have for you a collection of sixteen different flowers, and a small lantern of blue flame.

... [ he's quiet for some time, perhaps long enough for things to get a bit awkward. eventually he reaches for his hand, lacing their fingers together and gives a weak squeeze. ] ...share some of it with you, or... try to. [ he's trying. kind of. he's obviously not very good at this, because he still kept his mouth shut about a couple of stupid flowers, but... that's really only because there were some lilis in the room. had it just been wild city and heart solider, then he wouldn't have minded so much, but... ] Is that not what boyfriends do? I just, don't want to do it with... everybody. Just you. I'm sorry I made things more difficult, but this isn't for their ears, their eyes, their anything... only yours.

You do not have to apologize for being who you are. Nor do you have to share things that you do not want to, though I wish to hear every thought and every word.

[ He pulls Childe closer to him, tucking him even farther away from the rest of the crowd ]

That is what partners do.

And you are my partner and equal before anything else.

...and you can do the same, alright. I'll help ease your burdens too. [ digs his nails into his front, clinging. ] I don't want to change here, Xiansheng. Or at all, if I can help it. [ that's part of what he's worried about. ]

Then I will speak of them when this game is far behind us.

For now, we will use what you have given us to protect everyone as best we can. And if you do change, I made you a promise. I will not allow you to hurt anyone.

[ nods. ] I can share some more too.

[ another nod. ] Thank you. I think I can avoid it... [ assuming nobody triggers him, but we'll have to see if that sticks. he gives zhongli's cheek a quick peck and then takes a step back. ]
