He hums and smiles at the immediate extra kiss. He'd never really realized how nice affection is before Xue Yang. Now he can hardly picture a day he won't reach out for him.

That dark bruise over his lover's pale back startles a little breath from him, but he only drapes his robes beside Xue Yang's before stepping up to rest gentle hands over the darkening skin. He presses more healing energy into his love's bruised body, coaxing it to heal a little faster. And strokes lovingly over that poor back before helping him into the shower, turning the warm water on before looping his arms around Xue Yang's waist. Just to hold him a moment and let the water wash over them.

The conviction in that answer makes him smile, and he presses a tender kiss to Xue Yang's shoulder. "Then there is no problem. I'm with you."

Xiu lets herself drift off as well, content her silly charge is safe for the moment.
