[ Xue Yang lets out another little laugh and snuggles happily against his husband when he's dried off. Then he follows Song Lan's example and gets dressed as well. He stays close though and once dressed, he grabs Song Lan's hand. ]
I know the feeling. [Zichen keeps Xue Yang tucked safely against his side, his attention half on their surroundings and anyone they might pass by.] I will keep you safe.
I'll keep you safe too! [ Xue Yang, on the other hand, pays absolutely no mind to their surroundings and just keeps himself snuggled up to his husband's side. ]
I don't know if he's that bright, love. [Zichen chuckles and closes the door to the owl finch's cage.] He is happy and that is all that matters. It's down to us to protect him.
[He smiles softly at Muyang and Xiuying.]
Muyang has been protecting her since the beginning.
[ Xue Yang makes his way up to Song Lan so he can drape his arms around his middle and snuggle up to his side. ] Just like it's my job to protect you. [ He grins and rubs his face against his husband's arm. ]
[ Xue Yang nuzzles into him, only to them let out a surprised little squeak when he's lifted so effortlessly. Fuck, he can never get over how hot it is that his husband can just do that!
He drapes his arms around Song Lan's neck and his legs hook around his hips. ]
[He grins at the sound and snuggles the other man against him. Holding Xue Yang is one of his favorite indulgences. He loves how he relaxes against him, trusting him.]
[ Xue Yang loves to be held too. He craves feeling safe, even feeling small sometimes. Small in a way that invites comfort and protection, rather than cruelty and abuse. With his Song Lan he now feels safe being vulnerable. Nothing can compare to that kind of trust.
He grins and leans up to kiss Song Lan's lips. ] You'd fight a god for me?
[Xue Yang is smaller than him, so this works out perfectly. Zichen returns the pressure of the kiss and sits down on the edge of their bed. This way Xue Yang can perch on his thighs - something else he enjoys. For obvious reasons.]
I would. [He doesn't flinch or blink.] I would fight ten.
[ Xue Yang is more than happy to straddle Song Lan's lap and lean into his arms. This is where he likes being the most. He laughs warmly and presses another kiss to his husband's lips. ]
