The Endless River
On the morning of day twenty one of the month of Kazoo there is a message on the ICP screens around the train. Their SCA's will light up the colour of the Void and show the following information.
On-board
The dressing carriage is open, filled with clothing best suited to a pleasant spring day. Light, airy and in a rainbow of joyful colours and florals. One closet is entirely filled with wide-brimmed hats bedecked with ribbons, feathers and ornaments. A stack of picnic baskets and containers filled with an alarming variety of passenger-suitable foodstuffs and flasked drinks sits in one corner, next to rolls of thick, weatherproof blankets in the four team colours.
The large box marked Do Not Use Yet, filled with small, empty jute bags, is hopefully still sat in the Luggage carriage, ready for passengers to grab handfuls of its contents as directed by the announcement.
Upon landing (after an appropriate countdown), the train remains on the surface, its carriages partially curved to form a gathering site for the day. Welcome to Tshering, the eighth void nexus!

A Day for Picnics
Tshering, system #398050, is a strange place, only habitable by grace of the passengers' SCAs. The sky is shot through with colours, a cascade of sunsets, and through it, the void shimmering through it in seams like a child's painting of the milky way. Still, there's a beauty to the chaotic mash of colours that soaks through its landscape, and in the shelter of the forests of towering funghi that dot its surface, the Void can go unseen by its visitors.
The temperature seems mild, suitable for the provided clothing, and if there are weather patterns around the world they've taken the day off. The funghi are sturdy enough that what air flow there is doesn't disturb their stalks, and carved grooves and holds in some of the larger examples indicate that climbing them to sit atop their glowing crowns is eminently possible, and, in fact, encouraged.
the Endless River
The Endless River is a font of pure chaos, flowing from a multitude of small rivulets across the area to a central reservoir, from which it pours directly upwards, away from Tshering's surface and out of sight, beyond the world's atmosphere.
Anything bagged and placed within the Endless River will also flow upwards and soon be out of sight, passing, presumably, into the Void. Scattered across the surface of Tshering are small, glittering pebbles, as described in the announcement.
The stones are pleasantly cool to the touch, and all passengers need to do is feel. Messages can be in any form that the Voidtreckers wish. Perhaps words, perhaps feelings, perhaps an image from their mind into the stone. Perhaps a mixture. Once they begin their message the stone will glow slightly and continue to glow as they secure it in the bag and cast it into the river. They will feel, almost instinctively, that they need to focus as they do so, thinking of the person they wish to reach all the while.
There are plenty of bags and many more stones; passengers will not be limited in their sendings.
World #398050 is a void nexus known locally as Tshering. As a void nexus this world has strong links with the void and the connection through worlds. World #398050 is home to the Endless River. Legends speak of this river being powerful enough to send thoughts from one heart to another across any distance. All that is needed is for you to know who it is you wish to reach.

Xue Yang | The Untamed
Xue Yang stares at the clothing options with a quirked eyebrow. The last thing he wants to do is wear anything in that closet. He is perfectly content in his all black robes. He can handle whatever the weather is on the planet just fine without having to be wearing something so...floral.
He turns away from the closet and picks up a picnic basket instead and a blanket. "I'm not touching anything in that closet." He can always take off layers. He isn't shy.
Picnic
The picnic basket has been abandoned below him as he lays stretched out on the top of one of the funghi. His hands are behind his head and his eyes are closed as he enjoys the warmth of the sun on his face.
He isn't sleeping and he can hear all the people wandering around below him, but he decided that a little pre-lunch nap might be good to have. He wanted to be able to enjoy all the time outside that he can.
He cracks his eye open when he hears someone approach and rolls over onto his side to stare down at them. "Don't be stealing my picnic basket. I'm saving it."
Endless River
He has nothing he wants to say to anyone on their world. Instead he has his arms crossed and is leaning against one of the funghi as he watches everyone else sending wishes down the river. He didn't care for anyone and anyone he actually would want to talk to is already there. So he has no reason to play such a stupid game. That probably isn't even going to work anyway...
no subject
Once they had it laid out to enjoy the scenery of the forest, he joins him as he naps. "This place is beautiful." For once, he is so happy and joyful to able to see what the world looks like. From the cascade of sunsets and the colorful milky way, it's beautiful in a cosmic way, and enjoying the nature of the forests and fresh air.
After the picnic, he went to the Endless river to sit by the shore and meditate by the stones to send his messages. There's only a few people he sends his message to. His nephews, Wei Wuxian, Lan Wangji, A-Qings, Song Lan, and finally, Xue Yang...he send in thoughts, emotions, and feelings. He truly believes they will receive it.
Once the message is sent, the stones glowing, he secured it in a bag, and cast it in the river. He watches as the river takes his message away into the void, carrying his stones and messages across the multiverse.
Not true, the stones do work. Xue Yang will be struck with his emotions. Because he's too physically close to him and he's a passenger on the train, he might feel the intensity of Xingchen's message and emotions. There's sadness, regret, grief, love, especially love, unconditional love, and not to mention, followed by a good solid headache.
no subject
He stumbles a little and brings a hand up to his head as he tries to keep himself from being completely bowled over by them. "What the hell..."
He curses under his breath even as the warmer emotions hit him. There is too much negative emotion at first for him to truly understand. When the love hits he starts to slowly understand what is going on. It's pretty damned surprising that this river actually works.
He sits down on the ground and then falls backwards to lay down instead. Now that the emotions have started to dull all he has left is a headache. "Daozhang, You didn't need to send me one..."
no subject
"You received it? I wouldn't think it actually works. I thought they're like lanterns, you put confessions and wishes into them to release them." He looks pleased, knowing there's a possibility that Song Lan may receive the message in their homeworld somewhere, so the guilt in his heart has lighten a lot more, lighter much, and freerer.
"I don't need to, but I want to. You didn't know that I truly loved you?" He smiles and bends down to kiss him on the cheek in apology. "I'm sorry, are you all right?"
no subject
It is rather impressive that it does work like it was described. He figured it was just a bunch of dumb emotional stuff that doesn't actually do anything real. That doesn't change anything. He doesn't really feel the need to send any off. He'll leave that to Xingchen.
"I figure you wouldn't marry me unless you loved me."
no subject
"Xue Yang, people marry for love, and I do love you."
no subject
It's public knowledge that they are getting married but that doesn't mean he knows how to be so obvious with his affections.
"I love you too, daozhang."
no subject
His heart feels warm hearing the words and feeling it, so he holds him in his arms. This is a nice break, and having a picnic, it's romantic. He gives him a gentle kiss.
"Let's go back to our picnic spot."
no subject
He actually is much better now but that doesn't mean he can't give Xingchen a hard time.
no subject
Besides, it's a nice day out and the milky way that painted the sky rainbow is beautiful. Not to mention he has his handsome fiance in his arms, so it's picture perfect.
no subject
"You better not let anyone else know or experience your most powerful technique."
no subject
His arms around him loosen, "Anyway, I did send messages to people I know...that we used to know. I think you know who they are. Usually members of our family from our past in that house we shared back in Yi City. I just wanted to say my final good-byes and a hope that I'll meet them again in the next life. If you believe in reincarnation."

Alright she was absolutely going to steal his picnic basket but now she just flopped down on the mushroom and wrinkled her nose at him.
"You do be looking happy."
no subject
"Do I? And what makes you say that?"
no subject
She turned her head to raise an eyebrow at him. "I did almost be getting to your side before you did be growling at me. You do be relaxing."
no subject
no subject
It didn't seem so anyways. She grinned at him. "I did be hearing that you will be getting married."
no subject
He did not expect Xingchen to be making that such public knowledge but there is not much he can do about it since he broadcasted it all over the train before Xue Yang could stop him.
"That does appear to be in my future." Not something he ever expected.
no subject
"Do you be wanting to?"
Because the way Xiao Xingchen had explained it, it seemed he wanted to change a lot about Xue Yang.
no subject
"I want him to be happy. This is what will make him happy."
no subject
She tilted her head, "Even if he do be telling you what to be doing and do be wanting you to no even be..."
She paused for a moment as she tried to find words to explain what she was trying to say.
"He do no be wanting you do be being you. He do be wanting you to be behaving and to be being a good husband and to be doing what he do be thinking do be being right. Do you be wanting him to be being happy so much that you will be accepting that?"
no subject
"He just doesn't want me to hurt anyone. I'm not going to suddenly become a good person just to be by his side. He's agreed to accept who I am as long as I agree not to kill anyone."
And he has done well enough to do that since being on the train. There was only one mishap. Xingchen isn't so disillusioned to think he will suddenly be kind and caring to everyone. The only person who gets to see his kinder side is the daozhang.
no subject
Xiao Xingchen had sounded like he could change him, so perhaps he was doing it subtly, trying to manipulate him into turning to the side of good.
"You should be remembering that." She told him with a nose wrinkle. "Do no be letting go of who you do be being."
no subject
Just because he has agreed to behave himself on the train, doesn't mean he is going to become good. He simply won't be stirring up any needless trouble. He still gets to let loose on the battlefields.
