    Summary

    The tie between Lu Guang's fingers is thin, stretched, already too close to slipping. He doesn’t pull—he just touches.

    And it unravels.

    The fall of hair is slow. Weightless. The elastic slips down like it's never belonged there. Black strands tumble free and hit Lu Guang’s cheek. It makes him flinch, just barely, even as his fingers stay in the mess of it. And Cheng Xiaoshi freezes.

    The pause only lasts a breath, but Lu Guang feels it like a tremor.

    "...You did that on purpose?" Cheng Xiaoshi whispers.

    Lu Guang doesn’t answer.

    Cheng Xiaoshi doesn't wait for an answer. Instead, he reaches up, plucks the fallen hairtie from where it landed near Lu Guang’s head, and flicks it around two fingers.

    Then, gently, he slips it over Lu Guang’s wrist.

    The band snaps lightly against his skin. Not tight—just snug.

    Cheng Xiaoshi grins, his voice rough with heat. “Step one,” he murmurs, barely audible. “I’d tie you to the bed for real one day.”

    Summary

    Love was a foreign concept to Sylvain - it didn't matter if it was being given, or being received, he didn't recognize it. So it's laughable, really, that this would be his downfall. Sylvain hadn't even thought that he could love. But apparently he could.

    And it was going to kill him.

    Summary

    "That cough still sounds awful...Did you take any cold medicine?"
    "Don’t need to, I don’t have a- *cough cough cough cough*"
    "Dunno man, sounds like a cold..."
    "No, it’s not. And we are too broke for cold medicine."
    "I think it’s very inspiring that you believe pure denial can conquer the common cold. I’ll take a leaf out of your book when I inevitably catch it. "
    "Idiots can’t catch colds."

    When Lu Guang comes down with pneumonia, the fever dreams have him convinced he's drowning, and Cheng Xiaoshi would do anything to make him feel better.
