    Summary

    Lu Guang wraps himself in the well-worn blanket with an impish glint in his gray eyes, reveling in the little game he decided to play. He may not ever admit it out loud, but he likes to give his partner a hard time just the same as he does to him, even if it’s in a calmer, cooler manner.
    “Too bad—I’m using it and I’m not sharing.” He denies, snuggling into the fabric.

    Or:
    During a power outage, Lu Guang and Cheng Xiaoshi (playfully) fight over a blanket.

    Summary

    “…Sparklers.” Lu Guang deadpans.

    “Yeah! Cool right? They had a deal going on for New Year’s and I couldn’t resist!”

    “…Sparklers.” Repeating the word in the same dull tone; like a bell could feel exhaustion. “You’re this excited… over sparklers.”

    Or:
    Cheng Xiaoshi and Lu Guang light sparklers together on New Year's Eve.

    Summary

    Cheng Xiaoshi blinks.
    Somehow, there’s a steaming mug of hot chocolate in front of him. (Well not in front, per say, as he’s still looking off to the left.) Hang on, there’s a hand attached to this mug. Wait a minute, (or has it already been several?) mugs don’t just float with hands.
    Finally looking ahead again, the sight of Lu Guang holding out a mug of hot chocolate greets his cedar eyes.

    Or:
    After a tough dive in the past, Lu Guang makes hot chocolate for Cheng Xiaoshi.

    Summary

    why Cheng Xiaoshi wanted to go out to a fancy café for a boba milk tea in the snow, was a question Lu Guang couldn’t formulate an answer to. It's cold outside. The drink itself is cold. He wanted to go out into the cold for an equally cold drink. His partner’s logic is… puzzling, at best.

    Or:
    Lu Guang and Cheng Xiaoshi get drinks at a local café.

    Summary

    Hungry to help, to finally find a way to sew his partner’s fragile state back together, Cheng Xiaoshi eagerly deepens their kisses, soft little noises filling the air with every shift of contact. Heady breaths shared between them, warmed and moistened from the other.

    The dread that once clenched his chest morphs into a hopeful desire.
    The fear that twisted his gut unravels into a soft, loving heaviness.
    The sorrow in that cinched his voice bleeds into a tender want.
    The despair folds out of existence and in its stead, devotion and passion blooms.

    He will love the heartache out of him.

    Or:
    Cheng Xiaoshi struggles to calm a sleep-deprived Lu Guang down after a terrible nightmare that renders him panicked and speechless. The only thing that finally brings him back from the panic is through a loving act of desperation: physical intimacy.

    Summary

    Through the panic, the storm of Lu Guang’s emotions, Cheng Xiaoshi’s voice and breath cuts through the howling rain of despair and the deafening winds of dread. Against the violent and tall waves of heart-wrenching fear, his voice—lighter and softer than a bubble of dew kissing a tender blade of grass—is the strong, blinding light to cut through it all.

    That voice: His lighthouse, calling him home.

    Or: Lu Guang awakens from a harrowing nightmare, Cheng Xiaoshi is right there to comfort him through it, later aided by Qiao Ling.

    Summary

    Never in his life did Lu Guang think he’d ever get so close to someone.
    Never in his life did he ever think he’d love someone so fiercely.

    Never in his life,

    Summary

    When did Lu Guang’s faint smirks start making him feel feather-light and honey-bright?
    When did his encouragement after a hard job make him feel like he could conquer gods?
    When did the mere thought of him being hurt or in pain shatter him down to the bone?
    When did the mere sight of him make him feel exactly how he felt in Xu Shanshan’s body when she’d look at Dong Yi?
    He doesn’t know when, he doesn’t even know how.
    All he does know is…

    …He can’t possibly be in love with Lu Guang…
    …Right?

    Or: Cheng Xiaoshi realizes he loves Lu Guang

    It doesn’t matter how long or hard the day is, if they’re stressed or angry or upset, they always find time to laugh with one another. They do the work and at the end, they settle in it; these fun, gentle moments. Nothing but themselves, food, a cheesy movie and the night that’s all theirs.

    Summary

    A large lake expands out before them, completely frozen over, a dim shimmer cast against the ice that reminds him of sparks from a fire.

    “After we melted the last one, I had to find a new frozen lake!” Galo laughs, sunlight beaming in his eyes when he looks at him. “But since it’s so far out, I can’t really drive over here whenever I want. So I thought, ‘why not take Lio out on an adventure and show him how I cool down’?”

    Or, Galo teaches Lio how to ice-skate

    Galo stands and stares out at the light he had once been staring at, a faint grin on his face. He barely turns his head and the flickering green lights up his cerulean eyes.

    Summary

    Cold and alone, in the dark of the lounge, Lio is dim and weak. No whispers to embolden him. No warmth to spur him on. Only a burn that bites and stings to remind him he was not as he once was.
