[X] You have not spent enough time with your family. The new help should be settled in, so spend some time with your mother and sister. In the wake of your growing insights, you need to think about what family truly means.

I wanted the 'family' option at the start of this turn; that much hasn't changed.
 
[X] The situation between Zeqing and Hanyi is deteriorating. You have mastered her lessons and her art. The time for a tribulation is here, and perhaps it can solve the terrible situation forming before your eyes.

I feel like this could go in either order narratively. Visit LQ's family, mend some damage that her absence might've caused, and just generally relax. Or, confront Zeqing and possibly save Hanyi, then go to her family and have that work as a reminder of its importance.

We had been getting it pointed out we need to spend more time doing this.

And it's a good final insight I think.

Might as well

It can only help

We can go see our family next month for sure, but there's a possibility (not guaranteed, but still) Hanyi is gonna be nommed by snow!mom by then. Let's deal with the obviously on-fire SL first, then introduce our family to their new adopted snow-sister.

Man, this guy is a badass.

I really like the fight, I think it's incredibly well paced. There is some measure of planning ahead, but there is no "I planned this whole fight 15 steps ahead". The entire match lasted like 30 seconds at most and was an impressive mix of snap second decisions and reflexes.
 
Mmm, there are pros and cons either way I think.

Doing Zeqing first could illustrate us trusting our family to be alright and not being overly clinging, and that could be the right idea for the upcoming trial.

Otoh, us taking time to spend time with our family might help us appreciate the issues more, and/or center us.

Ultimately, the big thing that's deciding this for me at the moment is that we don't know when we'll get to do Zeqing if we don't do it now. I feel that if we did family then we should go immediately into Zeqing right after, but we don't know if that's what yrs will do next turn. Sooo...

i dont see how LQ's family can help with the Zeqing event? The problems of them arent even remotely the same. 'Understanding family more' is all fine but it wont help, because loving her child makes Zeqing want to eat her more and in her attempt to prevent this, Zeqing shows her less affection. This is intentional and cannot be fixed by helping her 'understand family more'

Well, that was awesome. Really cool tech demos abounded. The parry was particularly interesting, as was his ability to cut through our mist somehow... (though I'm not sure how much that helped here, since we were mostly using it to buff ourselves, and that would probably serve more to protect from Elegy/Dissonance?)

We also had some fairly successful dodges there, despite his hit advantage... possibly an illustration of how good GCD can be in darkness? Hard to say.

The moving around of our art plan was... interesting. I assume that Mist was moved to the start because we could get it out faster than Aria + Echoes? And that we attacked directly with Aria + HR instead of doing Aria + Echoes in order to show us the effect Echoes has @yrsillar? Or is there something about how fast we can play certain songs in sequence that we're missing here?

I admit I'm kinda still mentally modelling everything under the old attack + instant + reaction system, so if there are nuances here that we're misreading it would be helpful to have them explained.

It looks like I actually misread the plan a little at the start, but I think it ended up flowing better as written. Might cut back on moment to moment details for fight plans in the future
