"Yingzi." The crow whispered and reached over, shaking the other woman, "Yingzi! Wake up, it's a nightmare, dear... Please, wake up..."

001

Wisteria sighed and moved to slowly kneel by the general's bed, unsure of what to do. People like Yingzi are prone to having a habit of raising their walls when waking them up but the crow can risk getting punched... Seeing her suffer hurt a little more than the thought of being hit.

The thing with the Crow Mother is that she is made neither good nor bad but people theorized that the human mind inherently chooses to do good. Too bad that the beast is not fully human and within her, a hatred rages for those that cage this creature. ... Sike.

But they weren't and it quietly slid open as the Crow Mother stared at Yingzi's anguished and vulnerable form. Those blue eyes seemed to glow in the darkness and they watched, clawed fingers slowly pulling the paper thin doors shut behind her as she stepped into the dark room.

"A guest, huh?" Wisteria chuckled to herself, soon finishing up the cleanup and putting all the chocolate breads in one container, "What host let's their guest cook and clean? Hmph." The night went on and Wisteria initially went to her own room to nap until she paused, hearing something...

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

...but Wisteria sighed, knowing that Yingzi might not actually be joking. There might be more problems that would arise if she ran off. Besides, their little domestic roleplay is getting to her and she's...well, she's having fun if she isn't thinking of being a prisoner.

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 10/09/2026

And Wisteria watched her, her smile fading as her hand moved to touch the spot around her neck. The crow had noticed it—that flitter of hesitation and the fact that the magic wavered... She might just be able to get out of here.

"As for healing supplies, please save them for yourself next time. I don't need such things." This time, her tone grew a little more serious, "It would just be a waste if used on an old woman like me."

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

Getting off the counter, Wisteria finished off her bread and began to clean up everything else, "I'll handle the rest now, Yingzi, I apologize for making such a fuss." Her eyes glanced back at her own hand, still feeling that tingle of the potion from before...

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

"Aww, too bad~" Without thinking, the crow reached up and gently wiped the chocolate with her thumb, almost cupping the general's cheek. She smiled and put her thumb to her own lips, licking the chocolate off, "Then I'll make some every now and then. I'll be sure not to add anything dairy to it.

100

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

Feeding the general... The idea brought a playful little smile on the crow's face as she thought she'd see that look again—the one where Yingzi just gets so red and stumbles over her words. "Here now, be sure not to burn yourself or else I'll have to heal your lips if you do."

000

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

In fact, she decided to tease and maybe even ease the tension by... "Here." Wisteria held up the bitten chocolate bread in her hands towards the general, smiling up at her as she sat, relaxed, on the kitchen counter, "Have a bite. It's still hot, especially the melted chocolate."

100

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

And that didn't escape Wisteria's senses. Her hand almost grabbed at her own neck, eyes staring downwards as if she was searching for remnants of the spell... But the crow tried to look casually instead at the chocolate bread. No need to be hasty now after all.

She's dropping more secrets of hers: a past and skills useful for the benefit of the kingdom. Not to mention... "Mm! So proud. This chocolate bread is crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside. I stuff it with melted chocolate as well~" ...Wisteria just really loves digging her grave deeper.

000

"Don't get me wrong, potion making is a pain. Even my ex-husband struggled since he didn't have the nose that I have." She chuckled, biting on the sweet, "But of course, it took me nearly forty years to craft the perfect concoction. Though, I doubt today's quality can make such a miracle now."

100

Here is Yingzi, cleaning up the floor, on her knees, vulnerable. She has every chance now and all that will weigh her down is the spell put on her. 𝔹𝕖𝕔𝕒𝕦𝕤𝕖 𝕙𝕠𝕨 𝕕𝕒𝕣𝕖 𝕥𝕙𝕖𝕪 𝕔𝕒𝕘𝕖 𝕦𝕡 𝕒 𝕘𝕠𝕕? ... "Eugh." Her own thoughts brought disgust and Wisteria moved to retrieve a still-hot chocolate bread.

100

"Mmm... When you say expensive, I hope you mean better quality ingredients..." Wisteria whispered, watching as the potion did its work and the burns began to heal and dry. She turned to look at the general, eyes staring as her pupils turned into cat-like slits—

100

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

"Oh." Wisteria stared in surprise, pausing, "Shouldn't...Shouldn't you have used it on yourself or someone more in need???" The crow was inspecting the liquid, eyeing it quietly before taking in a deep whiff of the potion. Her mind raced to understand what ingredients were used, brows furrowed.

100

Looking at Yingzi's face, Wisteria decided to stay silent and nod, "Apologies. I knocked off the stone bowl while trying to move the chocolate bread." Which was still steaming on the tray, which she moved onto another counter. "I'll be more careful next time." Though, she did stare at the potion.

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

For a moment, Wisteria had a second sense of pushing the general away, not expecting the other woman react so quickly. Hell, she was about to explain herself, maybe even wait for the burns to heal on their own in the next few minutes but... Well, she was beaten to it and the speed threw her off.

100

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

"Fuck..." Wiping her hands, she hurriedly went and tried to clean up the mess, ignoring the sting of the burns on her palms. "Never been this clumsy before... What happened?"

000

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

Around nearly an hour, a loud sound echoed, followed by a chorus of small exclamations of pain— "Ow, fuck!" Wisteria went to wash her hands immediately, hissing from the burns on her hands, "Shit..." Then her eyes trained to the broken, heavy bowl on the floor, spilling grinded, powder-like sugar.

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

Perhaps cooking was a way to distract herself as she pondered the recipe in mind, already readying the bread and chopping up the chocolate. She made sure the sleeves were pinned back securely, not wanting to stain the dress that the general lent her.

000

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

"Mm." Wisteria nodded and sported a smile, looking ahead and walking on. Once back at the house, the crow practically grabbed all the ingredients and headed straight for the kitchen. She put everything where it needs to be and opted to create dessert first— Aka, the chocolate bread.

100

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 04/08/2026

They're all pretty normal reactions—one submissive than the other two... But the other two is either spelled death or world war. She has no doubt that Jiaying will be fearsome foe but knowing how her home is like— "I'd rather just die-" She muttered, "-than have another war."

000

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 04/08/2026

"It won't be." Wisteria beamed at the general, looking ahead as they walked back for the house. Sure, they can keep playing housewives but what can she do? Bore herself to death just making amulets? Fight the general for her freedom? Plan a terrorist attack?

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

—I'll add melted chocolate in it so when you bite, it'll fill your mouth." She grinned, "Of course, I'll be mindful of its taste. I wouldn't want it too sweet... Will you want me to make extras for you to bring for work?"

000

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

And Wisteria is the opposite, clearly excited to get started on baking, cooking, and just generally making new dishes. "Okay then. I'll take over the kitchen and you'll have your snacks ready to feast on." The crow smiled and thought long and hard, "Perhaps, I'll make that chocolate bread but then—

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

But while she worked, if Denji looked closer, her nondominant hand seemed strangely marked up with what seemed to be burn scars.

000

Ｗｉｓｔｅｒｉａ @upon-crow-tears.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

"Crow thing? She into crows? If that's the case, I'm sure we'll get along well." Wisteria smiled and got to work on doing simple clean up around their apartment. She was glad to see that Denji is doing well, living semi-freely and enjoying himself. Atleast there's not many limits like before too.

Choosing them was easy—she went straight for milk chocolates and dark chocolates too. She can always make her own crackers in the future for crunchier textures when she makes more sweets. "And you, general? You prefer sweets yourself?" The crow asked, eyeing some licorice.

000

—was something deeper behind it. Perhaps she'll try to get the emperor to eat something she makes in the future... No, wait, that would be treated as a crime if it is something like an allergy. "I think I can make something like that." The crow mumbled and began to look for the chocolates.

100

Wisteria didn't expect the general to actually know but at the same time, it seems like she's close to the emperor. Then again, it's important to know what kinds of foods your master prefers anyways. "Delicate tastes? Like something mild? Nothing overly sweet or salty..." She wondered if there—
