@heaxrtinparadise asked: He wouldn't say where he heard such promising information, but he planned on making very good use of it. Lu Guang had been standing behind the counter, their hands busy at work cleaning the camera they had just used for a shoot. Xiaoshi like watching them clean the cameras if he was being honest. Their hands always been so skilled, precise, moving the cloth over to make sure there wasn't a single blemish left on the lenses. Its the perfect time to enact his plan, and moves up behind Lu Guang. He was casual, calling out his name and moving an arm to lazily lean against Lu Guang's shoulders. Xiaoshi moves in close, using his height to his advantage and resting his chin on Lu Guang's shoulder. ❛ Looks good, ❜ he mentions, admiring their handiwork for a moment before his gaze moves down the side of their neck. He smiles as he decides to move forward with his plan and move further, closer to Lu Guang's exposed neck. It's a soft nuzzle at first, moving like a cat who was just desperately trying to satisfy their need for pets. the bridge of his nose brushing against Lu Guang, before he whispers ❛Lu Guang.. ❜ followed by a small peck.

They were used to Xiaoshi's habit of leaning against them. Skinship seemed to be one of the ways Xiaoshi showed affection and trust, so Lu Guang had never thought too deeply into it. But today, clearly, was different. He mumbled some intelligible confirmation of Xiaoshi's praise, finishing up the last bit of the cleaning he deemed necessary on the camera before voicing anything else. They figured that Xiaoshi would either get off them right away, or stay there until he got bored.

They were right on neither of those.

When he feels the touch to his neck, there is a clank against the counter. The camera had fallen out of his hands. Thankfully he hadn't been holding it high over the counter, so there was no thought of it having been broken, but the fact that he had done so was definitely alarming, if not telling. He continued to face forward, frozen in the moment as his eyes widened. Okay, this was fine, he could recover from this and just push Xiaoshi off. He didn't need to make a big deal about how sensitive his neck was.

But then he feels his partner's lips on his neck, and any hope of this remaining a mundane situation had been shattered.

A shiver runs down their spine as they instantly clamp a hand over their mouth. They could feel some indecent noises rising in their throat and they were determined to swallow it down. They would definitely deny that there had been even the lightest whimper that had escaped their lips. Their other hand has their fingers curling in and closing into a fist as they shake slightly. What the hell had gotten into Xiaoshi?! Why was he suddenly doing this?!

"G--Get off me-- Idiot--" He stammers, despite his best efforts to sound composed, as he pulls the hand away from his mouth just enough to deliver the message. Though guang says this, he makes no move to physically push Xiaoshi away. If anything, he was at the other's mercy at least for a few moments.

While he wouldn't call himself 'free', as there was always the constant burden of being tied to a realm beyond the one of humans, he could most certainly say that tossing his previous responsibilities aside was far more relieving than what he could ever have imagined. Or rather, taking his responsibilities and turning them into something he could actually have something gain from. Still, as pleasing as it was to having left the seemingly endless count of crossroads behind, he was fully aware of how much of a wanted fiend he made himself out to be.

It was not a joy, needless to say. To constantly have the need to scout out his own surroundings for any potential threats sent from Hell. Naturally, taking out its agents were but a small feat for someone like him, but it would very much draw unnecessary attention. All he wanted was to do his work in peace and quiet - was that truly so much to ask for?

... Clearly, not.

As much as he could sense the souls of those humans around him, he could always tell if there were any abnormalities. And this one... was no ordinary human, now were they? It looked and talked like a human, but certainly didn't behave like one. And... whatever.... energy, if you will, that resides within it, was no ordinary soul either, was it?

" ... You are quite far from home, aren't you? " He knew an angel when he was one. Really now, he barely even had to see it in order to simply know. One of those deity instincts, he supposed. Normally he'd stay out of their way, avoiding them just as much he avoided his own kind. However, this was no ordinary occurrence, and he would be a fool not to find out more - at least for his own best interest lest he'd might find himself in a most unwelcome situation. " Something is not right, " He stated factually, offering the former angel an observing look - as if he was searching for something specific but could not quite put his finger on exactly what. " Say... what brings the Great Michael to descend upon the Earth and pose as a mere human of all things, hm? "

Obviously he wasn't going to mention how he himself is doing that exact same thing, but at the very least he had a purpose. Surely an archangel would have a tremendous one himself, no?

intimate pillow talk starters

   His words are far from unfamiliar to her ears. Yet, he persists onwards with asking every time, as though he does not know she’ll cut the idea down the same way a farmer does to newborn calves for veal. Some days though...some days it is harder than others to blatantly reject it. Especially when she’d like to do nothing more than that.

   “  Ol’ Pei.  “  Ling Wen sighs but makes no effort to try to avoid when she feels him wrap around her. It’s as pathetic as it is endearing.  “  You know very well that I cannot afford it so easily.  “  Her freest days were always those days which were closest to death. Like her wait before execution or time on the run.  

   She’s not the weaving goddess or fauna goddess, or those of song and dance, those that can spend vast majorities of their timing doing whatever it is that their hearts desired. They probably spent more time doing nothing than they did doing anything. Nor is she a martial god, who can gain vast popularity and hold it for a long time because people simply need it when it counts most - that, and having tons of younger officials also helped. They both know without her, the Heavens will end up crumbling into chaos till she’s inevitably drawn back to sort it out. 

   Her slender hand lifts to idly brush her fingers through his loose hair. At least she’d told them all she’d be back a little later than usual. It afforded them this time now, or else she would have been long gone without hesitation. He might be able to charm and sway others, but such methods had an astronomical chance of complete failure when it came to her. ( She’s rather inclined to the belief it’s something he LIKES despite how much he complains. )

   “  Or do you want to see the Heaven’s fall into utter mayhem? Then again - “ She hushes him before he can say anything.  “  You also aren’t the one who has to clean it up every time. “ Ling Wen stifles a yawn. Between his body heat and the blankets, she was half tempted to sink back down and curl up  for a while. That feels like a trap though, so she simply rests with the blankets pooled at her bare waist and an amused expression as Pei Ming lounges on her. 

   “  We still have some time Ol’ Pei. I told them I’d be back up a bit later than I normally am.  “ Not that there was any particular reason. She wonders if he’ll panic to try and recall a reason she might tell someone that - it’d be hilarious if he did.

@heaxrtinparadise​ sent:

There was no telling what future lay for his other half, after all, the future was always changing and he hoped that meeting him would help shape his to be better than his own. His birthday was no longer celebrated, that event of growing older had only ever felt like a curse every year he grew older knowing it was all on his own. It wasn't like he celebrated much with his family to begin with, but now, when their absence was very much forever truant. Even his friends he had made here at Night Raven had all fallen away once he had become king. It was a lonely existence, and seeing what he had here and now, he wanted his twin to hold tight to it for as long as he could.

"Hold tight to them" its words he never figured he would be saying. He didn't want to ruin their day with his own torments of his tattered soul. This Leona standing before still had so much to offer, so much change and he believed he could do it without needing to turn into the thing everyone thought he was. He still had a chance to prove them all wrong.

Leona walks over to them, staff in hand before he speaks a few ancient words. In the palm of his hand, Leona's own crown he was coronated with. It was traditional, heavy, and fit for someone like him. He doesn't take more than a second to place it on his twin's head and he smiles. ' Its legit, if you're wondering' he adds, definitely feeling just how weight of that crown was on his head and his shoulders. ' Its yours, but its been in you all along even if you don't fully see it yet. You're better than that, better than me. You have people here that care, and they respect you. You're happy here, don't lose that.' Leona was never the type to get sentimental, but something about seeing his past self, who he had used to be. Something in him wanted so deeply to preserve it. To protect it and shield it. There wasn't much time left before he would need to return. What crappy timing, he wasn't in a rush to go back to his present timeline but he had his role and so did his twin. " Get outta here, they're waiting for you, I'll be down in a bit." He was lying of course, but hey, he never was good with goodbyes either. Not when they counted. // twin has to wish his twin happy birthday ~ <3

The other had seemed particularly quiet lately. Perhaps it was from familiarity that he recognized something akin to reminiscence in those tired green eyes, making him wonder what was filling his twin’s mind. Had something happened in his own world that he’d kept to himself?

He’d been right to suspect something was off, his hunch reaffirmed as the other places the crown on his head much to his surprise. It feels heavy, the feeling alien and disconcerting to him. It brings with it a new type of pressure. One he’d only imagined when he’d stared up at the throne. Was this... the other’s crown or-?

He feels no doubt over his twin’s words, finding comfort and reassurance in them at the promise there was enough for him here. That he could be happy here even without the glory of power and authority to gain recognition. “Thanks~,” he offers a smile in turn, genuine as he tilts the crown some to rest at an angle on his head.

Still, the words felt like a last lesson, as if the other was making sure to share any final wisdom he had before departing. Leona could call him out for it, point out that he knew something was amiss. A greedier side of him even wanted to convince the other to stay a little longer, share in the celebration, even if it might mess with their separate timelines. He’d never been anxious before about the other leaving, used to him coming and going, yet even the promise of ‘I’ll be down in a bit’ felt too final, like a white lie meant to soften a harsh blow.

The racing thoughts don’t leave his lips, even if he couldn’t conceal the hesitation in his eyes. He wouldn’t stand in his twin’s way regardless, trusting he wouldn’t be going to do something foolish. Instead, he reaches for the other��s hand, giving it a gentle squeeze before pulling something over it. His own gift to the other, a golden bangle with chess details. Just because the other wasn’t in his own world, didn’t mean he didn’t deserve something to commemorate another year.

His hold on the other’s hand lingers, his gaze resting on it as if finding his words. “...Let’s meet again,” it’s said with certainty, as if stubbornness alone could will the words to be true. He wasn’t as far along as his twin was in life, but it didn’t mean he wouldn’t try to bring some semblance of pride to the other. A way to prove that he could do something with himself, even if it wouldn’t be by following in his other’s footsteps. “So don’t go disappearing or anything~” The words are teasing as is the brief kiss he gives the other.

“...And don’t keep me waiting,” the words are mumbled close to the other’s lips, a smile lingering on Leona’s lips before he finally pulls away to head for the door. It takes everything in him not to look back, knowing he’d only want to stay longer here with the other. Whatever happened though, he’d find him again...

blind date ft.@heaxrtinparadise // Leona, Kanae Kochou

A few friends from the university recommended it: a blind date. Something people seem to do as a way to meet new people or explore compatibility. Through the grapevine, she'd heard of Leona. Somewhere along the way mutual friends planned the whole ordeal, and Kanae wasn't one to turn down an opportunity at new friendships ( or more should the stars align ).

She'd worn her signature butterfly pin, a pink top, and a black skirt. Something casual and easy as well as breathable for the festival they were attending. Although, the crowd made it difficult to make out an individual. Pink eyes scanned over the wave of people, and she tried to recollect the image her friend had shown her. Admittedly, Leona seemed like someone who would be hard to miss.

“ Ah! ” She startled with a bump to the shoulder. Swiftly turning on her heels, her eyes widened with surprise.

“ You must be Mr. Leona! I was afraid I'd missed you already! ”

[apuppetmuseum]

@heaxrtinparadise continued from "Arranged marriage AU"

"Aw, don't put yourself down like that Leona! You're great!" Kalim quickly goes back to sit next to the lion with a smile. "I just meant that, well, I wasn't expecting royalty." He honestly admitted with a wave of his hand. "I just figured it would be the child of another merchant family, my father has been talking about marrying me off for years now, combining merchant family ties and resources and all that. But I guess the sultana either forced him to accept this arrangement or talked him into it somehow." It wouldn't doubt him in the slightest if his father just wanted to claim to be royal. Kalim sighed and rubbed at his neck for a moment, bangles jingling together as he did so.

"He probably just wants more power in the syndicate, if I'm honest. He's probably thinking if I become a royal by marrying you, that makes him have royal status and have just as much say as the sultana or I do in meetings. I've outranked him for years now because of my unique magic and being the oasis maker - he hasn't been too happy about that." He laughs nervously. Should he be telling all of this to Leona? Probably not. If anything, he just wanted to show that this was all arranged for him aswell, he never had a choice in the matter. Though the Sultana was a close friend, in the end she had to do what was best for the country. He understood that and forgave her, but still the situation as a whole was just...odd.

He waited for a moment in silence, wondering if there was anything he could say or do to make the situation better - but there wasn't. He wasn't sure how to make this situation more than it really was - an arrangement neither of them wanted to do. Kalim was happy it was at least with someone he knew, someone he had built at least a little bit of trust with. Had it been a complete stranger it would have been much harder for him to not let his paranoia get in the way. Or at least, completely in the way. Kalim was still watching shadows here - and his elite guard was still nearby - the paranoia would always follow him.

"It's just moving to a fancier golden cage." He mumbled as he pushed some hair behind his ear. Though it took a moment, he did finally realize he said that out loud and quickly tried to backpedal. "Not--Not that your home is a cage! I really like the savannah!" He said with a smile. "It's just - well - you know--" He couldn't talk himself out of this one, could he?

[acollapsar]

Sebastian's crimson eyes remained fixed on Michael, absorbing the information the former archangel revealed. He could sense the turmoil and pain within Michael, a soul struggling to come to terms with its newfound limitations and fallen state. While Sebastian was known for his amusement and delight in others' misfortunes, there was also a part of him that respected strength and power, even in an enemy.

As Michael mentioned treachery and the struggle to reclaim his divine role, Sebastian leaned forward slightly, his composed demeanor unwavering. " Treachery, you say? A most unfortunate turn of events, I must say. To have your place in the celestial hierarchy challenged in such a way is a predicament no being would desire, " he replied, a hint of sympathy underlying his words.

" And I can certainly understand your desire to reclaim what was once yours. Power and authority have their allure, even for one such as yourself, fallen from grace, " Sebastian added, his gaze steady and calculating.

The demon considered the situation carefully before continuing, " The path back to Heaven may not be an easy one, especially in your current form. Yet, I can't help but wonder if there might be some way we could... assist each other. After all, you find yourself in a realm that is, more often than not, my territory. If you require any aid or information that could aid your quest, I could be of assistance... for a price, of course. "

Sebastian's smirk grew more pronounced, his eyes glittering with a mix of amusement and curiosity. This is what he did for a living; seeking out humans who're down on their luck and offering them a way out... Yes, Michael may still be an angel in the demon's eyes, but professionally? Being a human meant that he got the exact same treatment from Sebastian as any other human who were down on their luck would.

" I may not be an angel, but I do have my own ways of obtaining knowledge and resources. Perhaps a collaboration of sorts could be mutually beneficial, yes...? "

There was no reason for Michael to hide it. He knew the other could sense abnormality that radiated off him. A celestial being, but not quite. It was still a truth he was still trying to get used to himself. Not that he felt he ever would. He loved being an angel. Having his wings. Loving God. It was all things that were built into his soul, he was created for this. To be anything other than the angel their Father had created him as felt like a crime against nature itself.

Michael's gaze only narrows as he notices the smile on his face. He shouldn't be surprised, to see a demon taking amusement in his misfortune. But it made his blood boil. He hated the idea of anything and anyone, demon or otherwise looking down on him. He of which had stood high above them all. Even Lucifer, even if it was not the truth. He pushes the thought away, not wanting to even think of what would happen if Lucifer had gotten word of this. He had enough on his plate as it were.

❛ Treachery ❜ comes his very short, very simple answer. Its all he will say on the matter for now. He doesn't know who this demon is, and saying too much to the wrong ears would be death for him. The fact he was even risking having a conversation with a demon proved he was desperate enough as it is. ❛ Someone in Heaven feels it might be better in their hands, and but they're foolish to think my job can be simply handed down to just any other angel. I need to get back. ❜

@heaxrtinparadise​​ said: sorry , i've got ... i've got a lot of work to do . // takeuchi @ suwa gives them tension on purpose 

just one, I’m a few starters  

   ...What? Suwa stares at the lab door for a moment in stunned silence when Takeuchi’s muffled response comes in response. Takeuchi was too busy? Since when? Takeuchi was the one who was always talking about how he had all the time he could ever want now that he was a vampire? So just what the hell was Takeuchi doing that suddenly he DIDN’T have infinite time?

   He supposed it WAS plausible that he was doing something. Suwa didn’t understand science the way that the scientist did obviously, but he HAD picked up on the fact that sometimes there were reactions that happened quickly. So it WAS plausible. Maybe there was a time constraint that was going on with something he was doing. But why in his room? Why the hesitation he heard at the beginning? Suspicious slithered out from the corners of his mind. Work? Was he doing something that Suwa wouldn’t like? Was he doing something as a surprise?

    Suwa wasn’t a particularly nosy person. He kept to himself most of the time, cycling between sleeping and fighting for the most part, with the occasional visit to the theater house to see the newest performances that humans were putting on or to help those in the red light district (even if only for a night). He didn’t pry. Something about this seemed wrong though, even without him being able to place a finger on it. 

   The mask hangs low around his neck - Maeda won’t be here for several hours so it’s safe to have it off when it was only vampires around. Although even then it was rare he would remove it. But Kurusu and Yamagami were both still fast asleep, leaving it just the two of them. 

    “  Work?  “  Maybe it was a directive from the government or one of the few higher ups that knew about them, but he doubted it. He turns around, arms folded across his chest as he leans back against the door. “  What kind of work? What are you doing?  “

   Would Takeuchi be honest? Would he lie? He felt half tempted to try to break down the door to look for himself. But he manages to refrain himself as he waits with a frown.

   What are you doing Takeuchi?  “  Do you need test subjects?  “

@heaxrtinparadise continued from "Thank you." "I am sorry."

"Idiot." He almost lovingly states as his gaze goes soft. "Haven't you realized I already forgave you?" Xiaoshi could be reckless, they'd be the first to chide him for that. But in the end, none of this was directly his fault. None of them could have known there would be another player involved, someone else with similar powers and murderous intent. So Lu Guang never blamed everything on Xiaoshi from the start. The only thing that they had been concerned about, was their partner's safety.

They look towards the police officers, seeing them still talking, and Ling still wasn't back. Perhaps he could afford to be a little more sappy while no one was paying attention. He hated himself, sometimes, for being so distant and shy that he couldn't properly express his feelings. But too much had happened, and maybe Xiaoshi was effecting them more than they thought. They take their hand out of Xiaoshi's, running it through the other's hair before gently grasping the back of his head. He pulled his partner closer before planting a kiss on his lips.

They had never really kissed before. On the cheek, on the forehead, sure. But Lu Guang had always shied away from kissing on the lips. Hell, even holding hands was difficult for him and only happened on the rare occasions that they were alone and he got over himself to do so. In hindsight, he was just embarrassed and not ready for their situation to change. He felt comfortable with what they had, what little it was. But after everything that happened, he needed to make sure that Xiaoshi understood how he felt. Who knows when they'd get into a dangerous situation like this again (and Lu Guang had a gut feeling that it would be sooner than they wanted).

They pull away, their face clearly flushed as they glance away and let go of Xiaoshi. Even with the circumstances, it was so damn embarrassing. He was about to turn over and forget it all happened, honestly. But there was still one more thing he needed to say. "I love you." He barely says over a whisper. "We'll get through this, I promise."

[acollapsar]

Having meant to make a remark about why he was currently not residing in Hell, the angel's last comment - bluntly admitting that he had indeed fallen - the sight of the other in this poor state and the strange feeling the demon had gotten from him just a moment prior suddenly made sense. The revelation was even reflected upon his features as a look of genuine surprise washed across his face, although it was gone almost as quickly as it had appeared; instead being replaced by amusement.

" ...Ah, " Sebastian simply uttered as a crimson gaze lingered on the beaten up former deity. Naturally, he had heard of fallen angels before, though he could not say he had ever encountered them before. It made sense, considering he had only up until quite recently been tied to the crossroads, and the likelihood of an angel - fallen or not - summoning him were.... well, practically non-existent.

A slight grin, clearly reflecting his own amusement, began to spread across his face as he leaned back in his own seat - silently debating with himself what he should do with this piece of brand new information. However, there was only one thing that was currently occupation his mind.

" ... Naturally, I'm aware of who are, " The demon then finally said as he shrugged lightly, the small grin present upon his lips. " This may be our first meeting, but you are no ordinary angel, " Sebastian cleared his throat. " Former angel, " He corrected himself, clearly making a mockery out of Michael's unfortunate situation. " And what could have possibly have caused you to end up in such a dire state? "

                       ⌈ ☆ ‒ 𝐌𝐈𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐄𝐋 𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐋𝐃 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐅𝐈𝐆𝐔𝐑𝐄 𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐇𝐔𝐑𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐒𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝐁𝐄𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐄𝐃 𝐈𝐍 𝐀 𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐀𝐋 𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐌. The fact that he no longer had his wings, or his divinity, or the fact that when he looked up to the skies he heard nothing. It was complete and utter silence. Like the kind he received when he tried to reach out to his Father in anyway, and it felt like his heart was being ripped to shreds so excuriatingly slow. It was a lonliness he had never wanted to feel. Like he had been turned inside out, his soul exposed to every element of living. 

                      Michael missed it. He missed his home, and everyday he spent struggling in the mortal realm only reminded him of how lucky he was to be an angel. To know what his purpose was, even if he prayed to an empty coffin every night. His journey was rough, it wasn't like before. Where he didn't need to eat, drink or sleep. The things humans needed to survive were now what he needed. He was chased after trying to steal food. He no longer had his threatening aura, he was no longer something that striked fear into others. Humans, ordinary humans were stronger than him. Able to hit him, push him down and abuse him. A punch that never would have hurt him before, was different now. He had never felt so much pain in his knuckles when he had punched someone in the face to get away from being mugged. This was the world that God created? The people his Father loved so much? They were terrible. 

                     He had gone from sleeping outside in the forest, to on the the streets, to anywhere he might be able to be at least a little warm. Months of struggling to survive and Michael finds himself in the presence of a very unlikely presence. Being on his own, he had seen quite the display of atrocious acts, and it had made Michael wonder if it was purely the way humanity seemed to choose to be or if another force was at play. It wasn't unlikely after all for demons to possess humans, and commit unholy acts. However, in this body, there was very little he could do, and only served to anger him further. 

                  Now, he sat across from the demon in question. His arms hugging his shoulders as he shivered. It wasn't really chilly, but he found himself battling a cold in the last few days from sleeping on the streets. He couldn't believe it really. He was the most powerful angel in the Heavens, and here was feeling defeated by a sinus infection. It was truly laughable. Michael was already very unfond of demons, their entire existence was a mockery of their own. They were nothing but lowly scum, useless pawns in Lucifer's pathetic game. Yet this was the only demon he'd encountered in months who hadn't immediately tried to kill him. Who was even sitting here now, having a conversation with him. It was so unlike the rest, it really had Michael wondering. 

             ❛ You're able to tell who I am, so you're not just any lowly demon then. ❜ Michael makes the assumption rather confidently. He may not have the ability to sense, or get a feel for his rank, but he had been and seen enough to know that there were levels much like there in Heaven. higher ranking demons, and angels had much more knowledge, and were stronger. This one seemed to be as such, how high however, was still cloudy for Michael to possibly know. Still judging by his demeanor, and the way he too wore a human as a wet suit , meant he seemed to be residing in the mortal realm for a reason. ❛ I could say the same for you, is Hell not lively enough for you to stay there? ❜ Michael knows he is no position to talk so boldly, as if he had still had his wings and ultimate power. His hated for demons was showing, even in his weak and mortal form. As strong as he wished to appear, he couldn't help the cough that escaped him. It left his chest aching and he felt a miserable headache coming. ❛ Surely you're able to deduce enough from what you're seeing... I've fallen. ❜

[apuppetmuseum]

@heaxrtinparadise asked: "Lu Guang, don't leave me alone in this world." // gives you this

Idiot, you really think I'd do that?

Is what he wanted to say, at least. But while lying in a pool of his own blood, he couldn't say much of anything. He is vaguely aware of the struggle going on between Xiaoshi, and someone who was clearly not Ling. But he's focusing most of it inwards on keeping himself at least somewhat conscious. The only thing making sure he doesn't falling unconscious right now, is Xiaoshi. He's focusing on his partner's words, actions, anything related to him.

But then it goes quiet, and Guang is starting to lose himself. He hears Xiaoshi call out to him again, and opens his eyes to see a vague blur of his partner leaning over him. He feels himself being moved just slightly, but is dead weight in Xiaoshi's arms. He can barely manage to move his fingers, but he does so and grips onto Xiaoshi's sleeve, showing a sign of life. It was all he could manage before his eyes closed again.

I won't leave you. I would never leave you.

The words are lost in his throat, as he slowly fades into darkness.

"H-Hey!" They gasp out as they feel their feet lift off the ground. They knew that Xiaoshi could pick them up if he really wanted to, sure. He wasn't bulky but he was still strong. Still, they hadn't expected that strength to be used against them like this. They can feel their face heat up as they're glaring the best they possibly could be at the culprit.

"Just because I'm wearing a skirt, you decide to be a gentleman?" He scoffs, watching as Xiaoshi walks over a giant puddle. Sure, their skirt was long today, but that doesn't mean they wouldn't have lifted it up to walk through the puddle like he would normally. But no, Xiaoshi liked this outfit apparently, and didn't wish to see it dirtied. That, or he was just being a show off, which was also possible.

When Xiaoshi doesn't put him down afterwards, his face starts turning more and more red. "You're going to carry me like this all the way back, aren't you?" They grumbled under their breath before giving a sigh, folding their arms over their chest. Well, they might as well get comfortable. Or.... a smirk pulls at their lips as they go to wrap their arms around Xiaoshi's neck. Thankfully, there was hardly anyone on the streets at this time, so they were saved from the embarrassment of being seen being carried like this, and on what they were about to do.

They lean over and press a kiss to the side of Xiaoshi's neck. His neck might not be as sensitive as their own, but they knew how to rile their partner up regardless. One hand goes to Xiaoshi's hair to tangle itself in black locks, holding his head steady and facing forward, so he couldn't look down and see what Lu Guang was doing. They placed more kisses on his neck before nibbling at his ear, a breathy chuckle escaping them afterwards. "My hero." Lu Guang teased softly.
