Xue Yang's cheeks color a faint hue of pink when he's brought out of his thoughts. "Ah... I was just wondering, have you told anyone about... well, us?" It feels incredibly strange to talk about the two of them as us, but also... right.
"Mmhm I have." Zichen washes off the soap and cups Xue Yang's face between his hands, "They worry about me and tell me to not get too close to you. I've ignored them." his lips twitch, "I appreciate their concern, but I've watched you for years and this...what we have...is new. I treasure it."
Zichen chuckles deeply and brushes a soft kiss against Xue Yang's lips.
"They don't bother me." he strokes his thumbs over his lover's cheeks, "I understand their caution - they know some of our story - but I'm not under a spell or dim-witted. We both know how this ends if you were tricking me. But you're not."
Xue Yang's pout melts from his lips like magic when Song Lan kisses him, and the pink in his cheeks returns.
He leans and gently headbutts Song Lan's cheek. "I don't want to do that anymore, but I also don't care what they think about me. Most of the people on the Barge aren't worth a damn anyway." The fact that he's saying "most" and not "all" is some kind of progress!
He likes that color and he nuzzles his lips against it, enjoying the soft warmth.
The headbutt makes him laugh again and he gathers Xue Yang against him, embracing him tightly.
"I know." and Xue Yang doesn't have to say anything else on the matter, "Zack is a good man and, oddly, I think I am developing a friendship with Dennis Collins."
The butcher who is quite proud of his murderous deeds.
"He was so angry with me when I was his Warden, but he has opened up more and told me about his interest in music."
Xue Yang frowns a little. "Dennis Collins? Isn't he the guy who killed a bunch of people here? Be careful around someone like that!" Probably a little ironic coming from Xue Yang, but...
"Zack is okay I guess..." he concedes, somewhat reluctantly before asking, "Have you ever talked to Xie Lian? You'd like him. He's... he's kinda like Xiao Xingchen."
Zichen traces over that frown with his finger. "He is proud of his murders. We have argued extensively about it and, strangely, he has never threatened me." he frowns himself and gives a little sigh, "I'm not here to judge anyone. I'm here to help." he softens, "Of course that was more difficult where you are concerned. Until you reached out for me...and needed me."
He smiles at the concession and kisses Xue Yang's brow.
"Is he? I..." his heart clenches, "I'm not sure I'm ready."
"Yeah. He's one of the first people I met here. I... thought he was Xiao Xingchen at first. They dress the same." White Daoist robes. He remembers the way his heart had jumped in his chest until he had realized that the face was different. "He's... nice. Sincere. He knows the shit I've done, but he's never been judgemental about it." A nice change of pace.
He leans up and gives Song Lan a soft kiss. "Mm. I get it." Trying to lighten the mood a little, he playfully adds, "And don't get jealous either. He apparently has a husband back home."
"Mmm..." Xue Yang hums into the kiss and slides his arms around Song Lan's neck, snuggling against him.
"Mm, it's just, he's similar to Xiao Xingchen, but I only like him as a friend." It feels strange to say that, that he has a friend, but Xie Lian is the one who had called him that first.
Xue Yang laughs a little. "He's pretty, but no." He slides his fingers into Song Lan's hair. "I like Zichen the best," he says with a small, playful smile, though the words are completely sincere.
Oh, is that insecurity he hears? Xue Yang won't have none of that! "Zichen is extremely handsome. I thought so the first time I laid eyes on you. You looked so fierce when you came flying in to put Fuxue against my throat." He grins and nips at Song Lan's lips.
So maybe he had found it hot to be chased down by two incredibly attractive cultivators, okay!! So sue him!!
"I didn't realize. I thought you were just trying to anger me." Zichen mutters, a bit shy, smiling a little at the thought of Xue Yang flirting with him.
Now that thought is pleasant! Back then, it wouldn't have been.
The clinging ensures Xue Yang is tucked on his lap and Zichen playfully tries to kiss the laughter away~
"I was trying to do that too," he easily admits with a laugh. He then lowers his voice into a more sensual tone, "But ah... if you wanted to tie me up again, I wouldn't mind." Far from it! The thought of being at Song Lan's mercy is a very arousing one.
Every sweet kiss just makes him giggle more, and he returns each and every one!
"You would be very pretty bound in ribbon." Zichen rubs along Xue Yang's arms, drawing each hand to his lips. He kisses each finger - including that poor half-missing pinky.
The laughter is contagious and Zichen soon has to break the kisses to chuckle, his eyes warm and bright.
Xue Yang shivers at the thought of Song Lan meticulously and thoroughly tying him up in ribbons. "Yes..." he murmurs as he runs a finger down his lover's chest. He really can't seem to get enough of him, and today has been a particularly horny day.
Desire and mischief are both in his eyes as he responds with a cheeky, "Tie me up?"
"First we need to get clean." Zichen reminds him before getting back to scrubbing them both. He is eager to tie his lover up too! A small smirk tugs at his lips as he works.
"I think I'm going to tie a ribbon around the base of your cock." he murmurs, ducking his head slightly at the final word.
A sharp rush of pleasure barrels down his spine, making him harden all at once, so fast it makes him feel dizzy for a moment. He's never heard Song Lan say things like that before!
"Holy fuck," is all he manages to say before a shaky little grin forms on his lips. "Yes."
His eyes widen at the reaction and he can't hide his delight. So, his A-Yang likes when he says cock? Or was it his idea? He admires the hard arousal with a few strokes.
