The most worthy and unlucky thing in my life is that I become friends with you...and Xiaoge.

I feel so normal about how people will have entire conversations at them, but Xiao Hua is just staring at Hei Xiazi like there's no one else on the fucking planet

devastating. whenever hei xiazi smiles at him I feel like I got hit in the solar plexus. many layers to unpack. much to dissect. also extremely fucking funny how there are very much other people in this scene trying to accomplish something and xiao hua has exactly One (1) focus.

The second half/arc of Sound of Providence S2 is so entertaining by just the fact that Wu Xie is literally always sitting at 1 HP from that point on, like the low health warning sound is constantly beeping-

-and of course the plot does anything and everything to basically make him roll death saving throws/really test those lungs that are the fragilest of glass by that point 😂

Oooo whump ask! How about hypothermia for Xiaoge?

...I really wanted this to be whump for you, @fixaidea, but somehow it turned into fluff? Oops? XD

[if anyone else would like to spin the wheel and send me a prompt, here's the post!]

"Xiaoge! Xiaoge, your hands! What happened?"

Zhang Qiling let himself be led into the house, Wu Xie's worried tones following him into that badly needed warmth. It was far from normal to have snow this late in the spring, but it wasn't unheard of. He would have been fine on his own, would have known what to do to keep himself warm through the night and make his way back in the morning. But he couldn't take that chance. He could have survived... but they couldn't.

Zhang Qiling slowly shifted his arms out away from his body as it began to shiver, then just as slowly pointed towards his midsection. From inside his jacket, wrapped in his mittens, his scarf, and every spare article of clothing he could wrap around them, came several tiny, high pitched mewls.

Pangzi guided Zhang Qiling to sit on the couch, wrapped him in layers of blankets warm from the drier and a warm wool cap, then placed a cup of warm tea in his hands and ordered him to drink. Wu Xie fished through the layers at his waist, and with each layer he pealed away, the mews turned more and more strident, but strong for all their unhappiness. As he pealed away the last later, two VERY vocal kittens tumbled out into Xiaoge's lap and immediately began exploring.

Wu Xie put a hand over his face as Pangzi began laughing above them.

"You... you risked hypothermia to save a pair of kittens? Xiaoge... don't we have enough?"

One of the kittens had wormed its way back into Zhang Qiling's jacket as Wu Xie spoke, and the other now climbed up to curl up in the crook of his neck. He simply stared back at Wu Xie, a soft smile drifting across his face as the kittens began to purr. As expected, Wu Xie's face relaxed into a matching smile barely a few seconds later. "All right, all right, what's two more, I guess?"

Zhang Qiling let himself be tucked in on the couch after that, more warm blankets piled up over him and the kittens purring away, as his body temperature rose back to a more normal range.

It was a strange thing, to have a home, to have people who cared not only that he was physically able to do his job, but that he was comfortable... that he was happy. Some days it still felt like a dream. But Wu Xie was sitting by his head now, gently stroking it as he dozed, and Pangzi was tucking little warming packets in various places around the pile of blankets, and there were kitten purrs in his ear, and if this was a dream, then it was one he never wanted to wake up from.

I, uh, completely lost track of whatever theme I started.

(when in doubt, big leather coat!)

Literally who needs themes when this costuming choice exists. Like GOD the gay leather tomb outfits fuck SO hard. Like if I were to be in the club I would be yelling over the music to a stranger letting them know just how sexy these outfits are and how they should be idolized forever and also how they don’t really make sense for the time period but who gives any shits they’re so fucking hot

[ofteasandinks]

Because I'm curious...

[sharkbeneaththelotus]

Pangzi wears Xiaoge as a backpack I HAVE TOO MANY FEELINGS ONLY PANGYE CAN CONTAIN THEM ALL:

He first does it on the way out of the desert, the sun scorching their combined backs and the air bitterly cold. Xiaoge keeps his back shaded, and Pangzi keeps Xiaoge's front warm. He's too light; his wrists dangle down like driftwood wind chimes, but he's warm and breathing.

Pangzi puts his emptied pack back on over Xiaoge, and pulls the straps tight. Ahead of them, Wu Xie slogs doggedly along the path picked out by his compass, and Pangzi puts his head down and walks.

Xiaoge breathes cool air over his sweaty neck and the fabric trapped between them grows sodden with their combined body heat. At the edges, where sweat wicks into exposed cotton, the wind chills it instantly to ice. Pangzi can't tell if that's a relief from the burning heat, or the worst shit he's ever felt. He spends way too long thinking about it, one foot in front of the other, trudging onwards towards the camp Wu Xie insists exists.

He hopes Xiaoge doesn't mind having Pangzi's sweat on him; there's no way the Great Zhang Qiling is sweating. Hah!

---

The second time is soon enough after the first that Pangzi wonders whether Xiaoge was awake enough to remember that journey, because Xiaoge fits himself onto Pangzi's back like he is a backpack.

He's exhausted, mildly feverish, and only got off the tubes and monitors a day ago. Pangzi should not have brought him out to the gardens without a wheelchair to haul him back after. But he'd needed to see Xiaoge amongst green and growing things, and he was right; Xiaoge had come alive with plants to molest with his Zhang fingers. He'd even taken his slippers off before walking on the grass, so now Pangzi has to deal with pale green stains on his trousers, where Xiaoge's feet brush against the white fabric.

"Hup we go..." He warns, and Xiaoge curls tighter over his shoulders, bony elbows jabbing his collarbones as though Xiaoge's joints are just suggestions rather than actual rules. Bony and boneless, please make your mind up, Xiaoge.

He feels Xiaoge's sigh against the back of his neck, then the press of a sharp nose against the muscles between neck and shoulder; it was too much input, Pangzi should have known it would be. Back to the quiet room in the stroke ward he goes, Xiaoge's slippers dangling from his fingers and the man himself doing half the work of holding on to Pangzi's back.

Experimentally, Pangzi lightens his grip on Xiaoge's thighs, and the grip only gets firmer.

He lets go completely, and Xiaoge hold himself in place without problem.

"Hah! I'm one big mamma, and you're a baby monkey, ah?" He jokes, putting his hands back under Xiaoge's knees so the poor man can rest a bit. Xiaoge sighs heavily and goes limp as a sand bag.

"Alright, alright, this way..."

He gets a few strange looks, and is challenged by a security guard, but the band on Xiaoge's wrist is as good as a passport, and back they go.

---

The third time, Xiaoge isn't even ill.

As far as Pangzi can tell, and he's getting good at this hazy-eyed version of their Xiaoge, he's just grumpy. Their walk through the old streets of the antiques district had been peppered with quiet announcements about fake goods, and Pangzi had had to stop Xiaoge telling the whole market about it. They couldn't take that kind of heat! And Xiaoge didn't have a sword!

He'd been able to tell at a glance, in most cases, and occasionally with a touch, and apparently he had been restraining himself for their entire acquaintance, because the twist of his lip at the worst of the forgeries is hilarious. And going to get them both beaten straight out of the market.

He gets mulish about leaving, and Pangzi off-handedly threatens to carry him back to his shop and put him up in the window for sale, at which point Xiaoge climbs onto his back and hunkers there like a barnacle.

His hood brushes against Pangzi's freshly clipped undercut, and he feels the brush of eyelashes against the skin of the back of his neck, and Xiaoge goes tense all over in a shiver, then lax again.

Pangzi grabs him under his knees, hefts him up a little, and accepts that technically he did offer.

Title: Pending Retirement

Fandoms:  盗墓笔记 - 南派三叔 | The Grave Robbers' Chronicles - Xu Lei, 盗墓笔记重启 | The Lost Tomb Reboot (TV)

Relationships: Gen (with some vaguely implied Pangsang and Pingxie)

Summary:  

Who is it then? There shouldn’t be anyone else in here, or at least that's what Pangzi said when they were preparing for this trip. It’s supposed to be long since stripped bare and abandoned. That’s why they’ve come. Now that Wu Xie and Pangzi are retired, and Liu Sang has scaled back his work to jobs where there’s less risk of explosions or bugs in his ears, coming here was supposed to be as close to a vacation as they could get.

“Are you sure he came this way, Xiaoge?”

His sword drawn and ever vigilant, Xiaoge simply offers him a curt nod and they carry on walking. Beside him Wu Xie has his kukri drawn, his mouth thin in grim determination. This tomb was supposed to be safe. They’d promised Liu Sang it was safe. That was the only reason Pangzi suggested they bring him along. The kid deserves a break from dangerous tombs, not to be dragged into another one while he’s visiting them.

He’d better be okay. Pangzi will never forgive himself if he’s not. Despite all the barbs and snark that they throw at each other he’s actually pretty fond of Liu Sang, and although neither of them would ever admit it out loud he hopes the feeling is mutual. Not just towards him, but all three of them.

Liu Sang has made his feelings about Xiaoge clear since the beginning. Since before the beginning really, given how he’d brazenly walked up to Pangzi after one of their Mahjong games and asked Pangzi to get Xiaoge’s autograph for him. The kid has balls, there’s no denying that.

Then Wu Xie had saved Liu Sang’s life and after that Liu Sang was like a baby duck who had imprinted on him. He’s given up so much for Wu Xie, risking his hearing and his life during their trip to Thunder City. Pangzi doesn’t want Liu Sang to ever have to make a choice like that again.

It’s taken a lot of work to get Liu Sang to the point where he feels comfortable enough to voluntarily spend time with them rather than Pangzi dispatching Wu Xie or Xiaoge to guilt him into visiting for a meal. Now he’ll sometimes stay with them for a week, and doesn’t feel self conscious at all about having breakfast with them in his pyjamas before he’s straightened his hair.

He’s part of their extended family now, and they protect their family with everything they have.

“Is it much further?” He doesn’t mean to snap, but the words come out harsher than he’d intended. He knows Xiaoge will understand that it’s because he’s worried.

“Just up ahead,” Xiaoge replies and it takes everything Pangzi has not to charge ahead. If Liu Sang is in any sort of danger Xiaoge needs to be the one at the front.

The path they’re following opens out into a chamber, and there’s a light in the far corner of the room which Pangzi quickly realises is the beam of a flashlight. He shines his own flashlight in the same direction and he soon spots Liu Sang’s red hair standing out in the darkness.

He’s lying on the ground and there’s someone on top of him, kissing him deeply. For one brief moment he thinks maybe they’ve interrupted an intimate moment. Then he realises Liu Sang isn’t moving.

heiping or xieping and bruises?

Thanks @laireshi!

If anyone else wants to send ships/characters and prompts for the three sentence meme, feel free! ^_^

Yaba stared upwards, lips moving in patterns that only barely resembled words, more often resembled the first syllable of Xiazi's name, and Xiazi was not going to think about that, he wasn't, because Yaba was going to be fine; there were no other options.

But the bruises beneath his skin were spreading, dark and ominous and whispering of internal bleeding that Xiazi didn't have the tools to stop, and Yaba was shit at clotting besides; they'd talked about that, about how important it was for Yaba to be more careful now that he had a life he wanted to keep living.

And they were miles away from civilized help, but his erstwhile apprentice had a sixth sense for this, for Yaba being in trouble, and if Xiazi could just keep Yaba awake, keep him going until help arrived, then they'd all be laughing about this in a month's time... right?
