[Sashimi Slayer]

It's silly, really, the ordeal Pescario has gotten himself into, but Xue Yang can't resist the possibility of a fight. Armed with his sword, his beloved Jiangzai, and his magic, he races off to help the poor soul. Needless to say, because of who is participating, the ensuing battle is ugly and, at times, completely unfair. Xue Yang uses Dark Magic to make it quite difficult to find him, disappearing from one place and reappearing in another. Just when the monstrous creature thinks it has stabbed him, it finds empty air!

"You're not quick enough!" he laughs and cuts down one sword...then another...smirking as the arms fall with the blades.

Only when he is sure of victory, the knight (or whatever it is) falling into pieces, does he realize that he is now facing a dragon.

Shit.

"Is this really what you wanted to eat?!"

[Cupid's Arrow Beta Testing - Part II]

Cupid's arrows should never fall into his hands, but on the guise of 'helping', Xue Yang gathers his quivers and gets to work. He travels wherever he likes whenever he likes and if you look like a good target, get ready to be shot! Of course he chooses Chocoshot and the Quiver of Quiver. You're either about to be very sick of chocolate or aroused because Xue Yang is a good shot. All Cultivators are trained in the bow.

"Aw did that one hurt?" he croons at his struck victim, "How do you feel?"

This is for science. And for the hell of it.

Comments

[bright_moon]

At first they'd shared the room because the Inn had needed space and Xue Yang had simply been assigned to his. Now they share because they want to. And Xingchen has had fun learning new stories, then sharing them with Xue Yang. As well as sharing his own experiences, both at his master's side and since he'd left.

Those hands sliding over his body make him shudder and his breath catch. He presses into them, welcoming those wonderful touches. And then he finds his back to the shower wall and a little laugh escapes him before those lips play over his neck. He tilts his head back with a helpless little moan as he feels his body respond.

"I believe you." And that makes him beam!

CW: Sexy times.

[cultivatingsin]

Xingchen's stories are his favorites. It doesn't matter if his daozhang is a dreadful story teller - that just makes him more charming! To Xue Yang anyway. He has yet to really return the favor, but, in his defense, his stories are not really...bed-time worthy. So he came up with silly tales that were sure to make Xingchen laugh.

He really loves his laugh. Parting his lips, he sucks on the tender, sweet skin and grazes his nails and fingertips down his daozhang's abdomen. His kisses continue along Xingchen's shoulders and he pauses at the tips to give the man an impish grin.

"This is the first time today that Ying isn't screaming at me."

:3

[bright_moon]

He loves how eager Xue Yang is to listen to his stories. It just makes him hunt down more! And he likes laughing at the tales his lover shares with him.

A little mew escapes at the gentle bite of nails down his abdomen and those kisses have him shiver and squirm and sigh, and he drapes his arms loosely around his wicked lover. That grin makes him giggle and he leans down to claim a soft kiss.

"She's been worried, that's why she screams."

[cultivatingsin]

There's nothing wrong with him keeping Xiao Xingchen a little...innocent. Just for now. Xue Yang is protecting him! So there is no danger in building a nice, happy home around his daozhang.

But sometimes he dreams about the truth slipping out. What if Xingchen is put under a spell and he sees everything Xue Yang has done? Surely he will be disgusted.

He won't be mewing and clinging to him. Xue Yang growls and nips at those adorably plump lips, wanting to make Xingchen promise...

Promise that he won't leave. Promise that he won't find him disgusting.

"It doesn't matter if she's worried. I have to stay strong."

If he lets himself weaken, someone else could snatch his happiness away.

[bright_moon]

No, nothing wrong at all. Xingchen is happy as they are, safe and secure in his belief that Xue Yang isn't tricking him.

He hears that worry in his lover's voice, in that growl that sinks through his body to steal his breath away, in that nip. He tightens his hold and claims a soft kiss.

"You are strong, love. You don't have to be with me."

[cultivatingsin]

"But I want to be!" Xue Yang exclaims, desperation and embarrassment making eyes wide and his cheeks red. He had...misunderstood. Xingchen had meant...

"If I'm too weak, I'll lose you."

That's just the way any world works. He presses their bare chests together, breathing in deep to slow his heart. What else does he have to offer anyway? Besides his wits and his strength. There are plenty of others out there more deserving of Xingchen.

[bright_moon]

He nuzzles those cheeks and tightens his embrace, trying to use his body to reassure his poor lover.

"Do you think...that I am only with you because you are strong?"

That makes him sad, and a little hurt, and he's always been bad at hiding his emotions.

[cultivatingsin]

"N-No!" he rubs over Xingchen's sides and kisses his cheek and his neck, "I guess sometimes I worry you'll... You'll know everything about me. You'll see everything I've done and you will reject me."

What other outcome could there be?

[bright_moon]

He answers kiss for kiss.

"You have told me you did horrible things before. What matters here, is that you aren't doing them now."

[cultivatingsin]

"I'm not." he whispers, "I haven't. I think about you and I - try."

Even when he thinks it might be funny or maybe he's angry again, usually all it takes is for him to think of Xingchen looking upset to stop him.

[bright_moon]

Xingchen nuzzles his lover softly, then reaches out and turns the water off.

"Let's dry off and go to bed. I want to feel you tonight."

Another kiss, pressed to a wet shoulder. "I can tell you're doing your best. It's enough for me. You stop yourself."

[cultivatingsin]

Blinking away the water on his eyelashes, Xue Yang smiles softly, stepping back to help Xingchen out of the shower. His daozhang won't slip on his watch!

"I always want to feel you." he follows his lover and grabs a towel, rubbing over Xingchen's beautiful body, "Are you cold?"
