You need just the right level of punniness to make people groan but not enough to make them reach for the torches and pitchforks. My punny suggestion was on the wrong side of that line.

Turn 12: Arc 3-1 Friends and Acquaintances
Near the ceiling of the archive, the quintet of silvery wisps danced, orbiting and circling one another in complex pattern. As the strains of her music rose to a crescendo, their movements sped up, until the flashing lights seemed like one strobing sphere, then in time with the descending tone, the orb shrank and the light inverted leaving a tiny two dimensional circle of wispy shadow hovering near the rafters. It darted upward then, passing straight through the warded ceiling of the archives first floor.
Ling Qi opened her eyes as a faint applause echoed in the study room. She smiled as she opened her eyes to see the other members of her little 'music club'. On the wide couch across from her Ruan Shen and Bian Ya sat beside each other. Yu Nuan sat backwards on a wooden chair, resting her arms on its backrest.
"An interesting twist on a common technique junior sister," Bian Ya said politely, letting her applause fade. "Though I think you might need further polish to the transformation, given your intentions."
Ling Qi smiled sheepishly. "Yes, I'll need to make it more subtle for field use, but I think I like this more for performances."
"Nothing wrong learning to play with your lightning," Ruan Shen chuckled, his fingers dancing across the strings of his lute, plucking silently and adjusting their tension. "Stage presence is more than just your songs."
"How'd you tear out the regular qi projection and replace it with music?" Yu Nuan grunted. "I've tried that with a few things but it usually just makes the technique collapse."
Ling Qi leaned back in her own heavily cushioned seat, luxuriating in the comfort of the plush armchair.
"I helped a lot," Sixiang chuckled, manifesting as a child sized figure perched on the back of her chair. "Heh, when your whole being is composed of song and expression that kind of thing comes natural, she just copied some of my patterns."
"There's a bit reductive," Ling Qi said, glancing up at the smirking muse. "Copying some of Sixiang's manifestations helped but it's mostly trial and error. You have to observe the original effect, and compose new lines until you hit on one that makes the qi react in the same way as the base qi pattern."
"There are methods which you can use to be more systemic about it, but that is the gist of it," Bian Ya agreed cheerfully.
"Oh, can you share those later?" Ling Qi asked.
"I don't see why not," Bian Ya agreed. Yu Nuan glanced over to her and nodded in thanks.
"Well, that is my project, what have you all been up too this past month?" Ling Qi asked.
"I haven't had much time to work on anything serious," Ruan Shen admitted. "I'm getting close to preparing for my first personal art, so when I'm not deployed, I've been doing research on places to journey too."
"The Ruan family has plenty of resources and sites on hand," Bian Ya huffed.
Ruan Shen looked away, plucking out a low note one his lute. "And I told you if you want me to do this, I'm gonna do it right."
There was a moments silence as Bian Ya pursed her lips unhappily, leaning away from his side. "Well, junior sister, I have been deployed too often to come up with anything new, but I have refined a few of my songs. I do not mind showing you while we discuss theory."
"Same for me, too much time on the front line," Yu Nuan said. "Mostly been working on teamwork and my movement arts."
"I was meaning to ask about that, what exactly happened to…" Ling Qi trailed off as she looked down into the shadow under Yu Nuan's chair. Glinting azure eyes looked back at her. She realized that she had never learned the spirit's name.
"He goes by Qiu," Yu Nuan said.
"Borf," agreed the shrunken thunder hound. He did not look much like the gigantic herding dog made of lightning and clouds she had seen last. He was actually rather tiny, and looked more like a limbless loaf of fluffy blue and white fur with a grinning canine face while lying down.
"Yeah, he figured out he can get more treats and pets looking like that," Yu Nuan said dryly. "He's a total attention hog, don't indulge him too much okay?"
Qiu panted happily, looking back at Ling Qi with a certain performative innocence that she was all too familiar with via her dealings with Hanyi.
"Aw c'mon don't be suspicious of the little cutie. He just wants hugs and love," Sixiang chuckled in her head.
"I'll keep that in mind," Ling Qi said, sharing a chuckle with the others. "But I should probably ask, how are things. What has been the new over the past month?
The mood in the room dimmed a bit.
"The Sect has been victorious in all clashes with the Cloud Tribes," Bian Ya said. "But… Sect Head Yuan pressed us to a hard pace, it is good that we stopped, many were becoming exhausted."
"So much winnin' that you just don't want anymore, like wolfing down too many sweets," Ruan Shen said lightly. Ling Qi didn't miss the slightly bitter twist to his lips.
"It's all pretty ugly," Yu Nuan said quietly. "Can't say I'm much of a fan. Especially once the quakes started."
Ling Qi looked at each of them in turn, and eventually it was Ruan Shen who answered.
"The things underground started ramping up their presence toward the end of the month. Nothing that could stop us, but a lot of traps. Sudden ambushes from swarms of nasty things from below. Weird explosive formation devices that everyone's perception arts missed, sudden releases of plague spirits. The Sect didn't take a lot of losses, but it did bog us down."
"We're not the only ones getting hit, bunch of mines in the Wang land's got collapsed. Heard there was a military outpost that went dark in Luo lands too," Yu Nuan said idly.
"But every time they have brought force, we have met it," Bian Ya said. "And come out superior. Once we discern the function of their tricks, the leaders of the Emerald Seas will stamp down on it."
"Of course we will, doesn't make it any less nerve wracking to be marching and wondering if the ground is gonna blow up and cover you in toxic gunk," Ruan Shen said with a chuckle.
"Yeah, I'm not a fan," Yu Nuan said rubbing the side of her neck, as if recalling an old wound. "I made it out okay thanks to Qiu, but my squad wandered into a plague trap and it wasn't pretty, we lost most of the lower realms and the other officer is in the Medicine Hall's isolation rooms."
Beneath her chair, there came a low growl, deeper than the tiny frame of the dog below it should have been able of emitting..
"Ah, but those caught in the caldera events have recovered for the most part," Bian Ya cut in, her cheer sounding a little forced. "Elder Yongrui is still not in combat ready condition, but he is awake."
"Well that is something at least," Ling Qi said, thinking of her Senior Brother Liao Zhu.
"What of you Junior Sis," Ruan Shen asked, leaning forward. "There are already quite a lot of rumors circulating, care to share the truth?"
Ling Qi chuckled. "I'm afraid to ask what people are saying. The truth is the meeting went very well, the people from the other side of the wall are friendly and not inclined to war, Lady Cai and I negotiated for further peaceful meetings at a neutral ground in the mountains. They are strange but definitely not barbarians."
"Well, that is welcome news," Bian Ya said thoughtfully. Ruan Shen strummed and agreeing chord on his lute. Yu Nuan merely grunted in acknowledgement.
"Lady Cai has requested that the Duchess leave us at the center of negotiations, due to our success," Ling Qi added quietly.
That brought silence to the room, as all three of them stared at her. Eventually, it was Ruan Shen who broke the silence.
"That's… ambitious," he said carefully. "What does that mean for you exactly?"
"It means we'll be leaving the Sect a little sooner than intended," Ling Qi said, idly willing her wisp back down to circle her chair. "It looks like I don't have to worry about the tournament after all."
"Well, I will have to wish you good luck. Ah, perhaps that is why I heard that the Duchess was enquiring with the Clan Head about communications specialists," Bian Ya murmured, rubbing her chin.
Yu Nuan looked at her with a frown. "Am I missing something or is that not really risky for a heiress? Aren't you supposed to use your youth to build up reputations with folks around the courts?"
"You're not wrong," Ruan Shen said, looking to Ling Qi.
"Lady Cai is aware that this is a risk, but all the same, she thinks this is the best place she can be for the good of the province… and I agree with her. It's hard to explain but I'm really the best suited to dealings with these foreigners at least until there is some trust built up."
"It is not all risk I think," Bian Ya said. "If this whole matter succeeded… It will be quite an accomplishment, even if there are some in the province who will not value it."
"That's what I thought as well," Ling Qi sighed. "But for now, how about those lessons? I want to finish my Silent Songseeker's Regard modifications."
"Your slipping Junior Sis, not a bit of wordplay in your art?" Ruan Shen laughed.
"Quiet you, there is nothing wrong with being dignified," Bian Ya huffed. "But yes, it is really just a twist on the application of common Qi Harmonics, but…"
Ling Qi leaned back in her chair, listening to the older girl's words. She still had time to learn yet.
"So you're really diving in head first huh," Yu Nuan said to her as they left the archive sometime later. The other girl held her hands behind her head, looking up at the evening sky. Qiu trotted along at her side, his short legs working furiously to keep up with their longer stride.
"That is one way to put it," Ling Qi said, chuckling.
"I don't know how you can do that. Even with everything going on, I'm still kinda glad I have service ahead. Someone like me doesn;t have any business running a pig farm let alone a town," Yu Nuan mused.
"I think that's being overly harsh. Administration is a skill to polish like any other. You have time to learn it," Ling Qi said encouragingly. It wasn't an enjoyable subject, but that was responsibility for you.
"I wonder about that," Yu Nuan said. "I think you need the right temperament for it too. Besides, what am I supposed to do with a 'Yu clan' that's just me?"
"Ling Qi slowed her walk a touch glancing over at the other girl, with her wild blue hair and glinting piercings. "No other family members?"
"Had a grandfather once, and some aunts and uncles now. Don't really feel like inviting folks who didn't want anything to do with me until they scented gold on the air though," Yu Nuan laughed. "Nah, it's just me."
Silence fell between them for a time, as Ling Qi couldn't think of anything useful to say, and Yu Nuan seemed content with it for a time.
"Hey, the land your likely to get, it'll be in the hills or mountains right?" Yu Nuan asked.
"Most likely," Ling Qi said. "Before we probably would have started with a small settlement, but we'll probably have to build from scratch now."
"You'll probably have to run off herding, land up there is shit for farms," Yu Nuan said idly.
"You have some experience?" Ling Qi asked, cocking her head.
"My grandfather's pastures were on the edge of Luo territory. Just first realm sheep and cows," Yu Nuan said. "Feh, bet you never thought I was a farm girl."
"You don't give that impression," Ling Qi admitted.
"Good, I tried hard at that," Yu Nuan said quietly. "Still, I remember the ropes you know?"
Ling Qi shot her a sidelong look. "You're not usually so indirect. What is on your mind?"
They stopped, and Yu Nuan looked at her for a long moment. "Yu clan's never gonna go anywhere, and I can't say I like the idea of selling it off in a marriage either. Guess I'm asking, what's the Ling clan's adoption policy?"
Ling Qi stared at her blankly. The Ling clan in her mind was really just her family, not a noble clan. She knew intellectually that one of the ways for a young clan to grow was by merging with others, but she'd never really considered the idea. "You have your debts to the Sect still. I can't easily erase those."
"Sure but assuming I don't get melted, those'll be paid off eventually," Yu Nuan said.
It had been a reflexive excuse, in reality Ling Qi strongly suspected that after the auction she would be able to pay a tuition fee or two. Ling Qi found the thought that had been drifting through her mind as she completed the cultivation of the Roaming Moon's Eye Art drifting through her mind.
The future changes with every step, never be certain you know what is coming.
So much had changed in the last two years. So much continued to change every month and every day. The idea that someone would seek adoption into her near nonexistent clan would have seemed absurd, just a couple months ago.
AN: In both acceptance and delay scenarios, Ling Qi will discuss the matter with the relevant parties before giving the final answer
[] Yu Nuan is not as skilled as you but she is driven and trustworthy, you think. Tentative acceptance, assuming conditions allow
[] You are not comfortable with your family being anything but family. You can't accept this.
[] Your situation is still too much in flux, you aren't fully against this, but you can't decide now. [Puts off decision until turn 15]

I only vaguely remember this person tbh. I'm not necessarily opposed, but it's not impossible that she's being used to infiltrate us.

I want to say no, but I'm willing to kick the choice down the road. I think that Ling Qi shouldn't put too much on her plate to start with. Things will be difficult enough with just her immediate family. Adding a whole other cultivator (who she honestly doesn't know all that well) into the mix sounds dicey. Also, maybe it's just me, but I would rather she go for quality or quantity. Accepting Yu Nuan feels like jumping at the first offer because it's the first time it's happened. Remember, first girl is worst girl.

Best to ask mom what she thinks, and Cai about how these things are usually done.

A girl we challenged to a music contest a long while ago. Then Ling Qi's ice sister did something to annoy her, and we decided to help her bind a spirit as restitution. She was looking for something relatively normal at first, but we decided "fuck that" and rolled dice to get her a better spirit.
Rolled 100, got her A Good Dog, and so she became a recurring character. For some meaning of "recurring" anyway.
