"Maybe we can think up of our own story for them? It's not official or anything, but that's what some fans do with stories they really like!"
Chiyo isn't going to introduce Li-Na to fanfic unless she asks, but it's the concept that she wants to bring up. The possibility to create head canon for these ballet characters.

To be betrayed to the point of dying.... She hopes all the Wilis find peace someday. Betrayal and dancing men to death won't help anyone in the end.

"Have you done this with other stories before?"
Tell her about your fanfic, Chiyo.

Drawing comes to Chiyo a lot easier than writing does, so she defaults to fanart more than not.
"When my nails are completely dry, I can show you some of the stuff I post online!"
