Hey. Any particular reason we're in self-defense class competition? My money's on Belmont asking you to set your classes at the same time as mine to make a point.
After getting out some of his grief over the whole situation, anger had taken its place. It's just not fair. He's finally got Xiao Xingchen back, and now he's going to lose him again! And this time he won't even have anything left of him. No body in a coffin, no spirit-trapping pouch tucked in his robes. He doesn't even have Xiao Xingchen's sword anymore.
Despite it all, he still doesn't want to hurt Xiao Xingchen, so his rage switches targets. Song Lan is here too, and he's the one to blame for Xiao Xingchen finding out his identity back in Yi City. If he had just stayed away...! The problem is that Xue Yang doesn't know where Song Lan is staying, but the other man has been insisting on visiting him semi-frequently so maybe all he has to do is wait...
He's too angry to sit still though, and ends up throwing and kicking things in his cabin.
The sound alerts him to a problem and it doesn't take much for him to guess the cause. By now, word has spread of Xiao Xingchen's graduation and Zichen is sad yet...hopeful. For the sake of Xingchen. As easy as it would be for him to be selfish, he knows he can't. The other man deserves better.
Xue Yang isn't as selfless, it seems, and Zichen sighs a little. Without waiting for an answer, he lets himself in - Xue Yang can thank himself for Zichen's ridiculous strength. How could a door ever compete?
He stands in the doorway and watches for a moment before striding inside and grabbing Xue Yang's shoulder. His grip is tight, but not painfully so.
Xue Yang doesn't even realize he's not alone in his cabin anymore, too caught up in destroying everything in sight. So when someone grabs him by the shoulder he snarls and spins around to find the man he'd really like to punch.
His eyes are red-rimmed from crying, and still a little wet like he's going to start again anytime. He pounds a fist into Song Lan's chest, a sound like a wounded animal escaping him. "Fuck you!" he rasps out.
After this disastrous encounter, Xue Yang makes his way to Song Lan's cabin (well, it's technically theirs now that he's moved what little stuff he has into it), trying not to have a breakdown on the way there. Once he's inside, he throws himself onto the bed and just lets the tears flow. The pain is just too much, to the point where he struggles to breathe properly through the tears.
Edited 2023-11-05 21:43 (UTC)
what happened to gremlin? The link just directs to this post.
Yes, it is their cabin. Zichen isn't long, finishing his rounds and making his way...home. The idea appeals to him as he thinks of Xue Yang waiting for him. Opening the door, his smile fades and he hurries to the bed, kneeling down beside it. Laying a hand on Xue Yang's back, he frowns:
Xue Yang looks up when Song Lan enters, eyes red-rimmed and swollen from all the crying. He doesn't know where to start so he just crawls off the bed so that he can wrap his arms around Song Lan's neck and cry into it. He can't help but to immediately seek comfort from the older man.
Your new inmate was in my care when he committed those three murders.
In response, I asked the Admiral to make him and any weapon he wields go insubstantial if he initiates an attack. He's still allowed to defend himself.
I also placed a spell on him, to throw off his pitch. He loves music, so it seemed like a penalty that would matter, even if it didn't balance the scales. I can remove it at his warden's request, although I would be inclined to leave it a little longer in your shoes. It's only been a week and a half.
And despite my efforts to protect him, he was murdered in revenge by Johann. Please look after him, as much as he'll let you.
He'd gone to bed a petulant teenager the other night, laying in bed with his back to the wall as he'd always done back when he was an actual teen. Not wanting to be faced with Song Lan again, he'd opted to sleep in his old cabin.
When he wakes in the morning though, he's back to normal, but of course, he remembers everything that happened during the flood. Including the confrontation he'd had with Song Lan... oh no.
"Fuck," he mutters to himself, face in his hands. With a sigh, he gets up and after a moment's hesitation, he decides to go back to their cabin to see if Song Lan is there. They should probably talk, as much as he dreads it.
He knocks at the door to their cabin, worrying his bottom lip between his teeth out of anxiety.
Going to bed alone had been a confusing experience and Zichen hadn't fully understood why until he woke up as...himself...again. He immediately rises and worries about Xue Yang - where had he slept? His old cabin? But the conversation they had had still weighs heavy in his mind.
Is that really how Xue Yang had seen his Master? Old, weak...useless? His stomach clenches and he reminds himself that the little boy had likely been lashing out to seem tougher. And now said little boy is probably a fully grown man again and alone.
He strides to the door the moment he hears a knock, hoping...
Opening the barrier, he feels his heart skip a beat and then settle into a more comfortable pace.
[ Xue Yang is sitting on their bed, looking nervously excited as he holds up a note that says Congratulations on your graduation, the Admiral on it. Next to him is a plate of cookies, which is what had had the note attached. ]
I did it. [ He says, as a cupcake manifests by his lips, but he barely notices - too excited by what's happened. ]
[He drops what he is carrying, staring at his communicator as if it has sprouted legs. Or horns. Both could be possible around Xue Yang! But...no. What his lover has to share with him is better. So much better. Leaving what he dropped behind, he runs to their cabin and throws open the door.
His lips quiver and he rushes to the bed, dragging Xue Yang into a hard embrace.]
His body responds immediately and he forgets the ache in his shoulder. Gently lifting and turning Xue Yang on his lap, he takes hold of his cock and strokes him slowly.
Once Song Lan leaves their cabin in the morning, Xue Yang begins preparing. Song Lan had told him about his birthday, but then the breach had had happened and he hadn't had the chance to prepare much. Still, being graduated and working in the kitchens means that he's able to gain access to the stuff needed to make a nice meal for them both, with tangyuan and tanghulu for dessert. It's all set up in their kitchen.
As for himself... well, he takes a bath and does his hair up in a more elaborate hairstyle than usual. He found some lingerie in the Barge's wardrobe that he's put on under his robe. He's not wearing an under robe and keeps the robe open enough in the front to give his lover a glimpse of black lace underneath.
And now he just waits for Song Lan to return, feeling both excited and a little nervous.
Telling Xue Yang of his birthday had been his shy way of getting closer to his lover. Zichen truly didn't expect anything special on said day and so he went about his duties as normally as possible. The Breach had been wonderful and it had opened his eyes to just how good a marriage with Xue Yang could be. Even so, he misses their Daemons and hopes that, somehow, they will meet them again.
He cleans up before he comes into the cabin - a habit to keep his quarters clean - his eyes widening when he is met with delicious scents and his...
His beautiful husband-to-be.
"A-Yang, you didn't have to..." he starts, a little overcome by the thoughtfulness, "I'm not even sure how old I am."
Xue Yang chews his bottom lip as he nervously paces around their cabin, waiting for Song Lan to accept the video call. Once he does, he will be greeted by an awkward, slightly panicked Xue Yang.
"The Admiral temporarily paired me with someone called John Silver? I don't know what to do..."

I would rather the spell stay in place. I trust your advice. [It's a good punishment. A man like Dennis needs something he values taken from him.]
He will not be murdered under my watch. I can set wards on his door if I must.
Dated to the end of the flood
When he wakes in the morning though, he's back to normal, but of course, he remembers everything that happened during the flood. Including the confrontation he'd had with Song Lan... oh no.
"Fuck," he mutters to himself, face in his hands. With a sigh, he gets up and after a moment's hesitation, he decides to go back to their cabin to see if Song Lan is there. They should probably talk, as much as he dreads it.

/stumbles back into game
Is that really how Xue Yang had seen his Master? Old, weak...useless? His stomach clenches and he reminds himself that the little boy had likely been lashing out to seem tougher. And now said little boy is probably a fully grown man again and alone.

Happy birthday, Zichen!
As for himself... well, he takes a bath and does his hair up in a more elaborate hairstyle than usual. He found some lingerie in the Barge's wardrobe that he's put on under his robe. He's not wearing an under robe and keeps the robe open enough in the front to give his lover a glimpse of black lace underneath.
And now he just waits for Song Lan to return, feeling both excited and a little nervous.
Awww ;u;
He cleans up before he comes into the cabin - a habit to keep his quarters clean - his eyes widening when he is met with delicious scents and his...
His beautiful husband-to-be.
"A-Yang, you didn't have to..." he starts, a little overcome by the thoughtfulness, "I'm not even sure how old I am."
