Xia Fei @fangsandsmiles - Tumblr Blog

Xia Fei does not look like he’s in a good mood when he comes down to the sunroom , immediately glaring at Lu Guang,

“What did you do.”

- @fakesmile-andcalm

Lu Guang is currently wiping the counter, looking up at Xia Fei.

He is fast approaching, very angry model,

“Explain”

He blinks, leaning back slightly. "..Explain?"

“Whatever you said or did to Xiaoshi”

"I didn't do anything. I simply told him what he asked for."

“He asked for it? Do you think he asked to be sobbing in the bathroom?!”

"He is- oh God.." He's immediately dropping everything to go find Cheng Xiaoshi!

He grabs his arm, “wait- can you just tell me what’s wrong? He might not want to see you.”

He looks a little startled. "...Fine."

“I’m trying not to upset him more than he is- he was just going for a shower and I tried to reassure him and then he locked himself in-“

He just walks over to the couch.

“Can you just tell me why he’s freaking out about dying?”

"I told him about Vein. And ..you don't know this but I've...gone back a few times to save him from dying.."

“…what”

"...Yeah. Apparently you don't like this information either.."

“Who would?”

"...I don't see why trying to keep the- my best friend alive is so wrong.."

^ He's being very genuine. Guy doesn't see a priblem with that.

“I don’t have an issue with that- well not really, but you’re telling me he has died multiple times!”

"...Yes. I'm sorry from..keeping this from you both."

“How do we stop this-“

"That's the thing that probably upset him... I don't know if we actually can "

“Fuck..” he sighs, “you- we have to”

"I know. Good news is, so far we're almost three months past his last death.."

“..that’s good, I think”

"Mhm... though it's very unpredictable..."

“..anything is better than him dying”

"..I meant fate is unpredictable."

“Well no shit”

He sighs. "...I never meant to upset him or..make him panic..x

“..when he calms down.. maybe be a bit more reassuring?”

"... I'll try. And I'll keep trying to protect him. If you don't mind it."

“Why would I mind you protecting him? That’s all I want”

"Well, I don't know..."

“You’re overthinking aren’t you?”

"...Maybe?"

He ruffled his hair, “then stop”

He blinks. "...Sure... I.. I just don't want you to get the wrong idea.."

“What idea?”

"... I'm not sure actually...But I thought you might not like that I...care so much about him.."

“I think it’s sweet.. you’re so caring”

"Ah...thanks.."

“You’re a great guy”

"... You're also a great guy."

“Im an arsonist,” he laughs

He laughs a little. "What?"

“…shit I thought you knew that”

"No??"

“Well fuck”

He laughs a little more

He starts laughing after a bit, “this is only funny if you promise not to turn me in”

"As long as you don't turn me in either"

“I’m no snitch”

"Neither am I."

“Good good~” he smiles

"It would be quite nice if moving would stop causing pain"

"I'll consider it"

“Good”

"Mhm"

He nods

"It would be quite nice if moving would stop causing pain"

"I'll consider it"

“Good”

"It would be quite nice if moving would stop causing pain"

"... I'll just lay down right here. At least grass is soft. They probably won't need me any time soon"

“..Vein, what happened.”

"Nothing that needs worrying over"

“Too late..”

"I'm not injured. Or do you smell blood?"

“I usually smell it off you..”

".... my own?"

“I dunno, think your clothes got stained”

"Ew. Probably, though"

“It’s not that bad”

"Right. So, do you smell fresh blood?"

“Don’t think so?”

"Exactly"

“Hm..”

"Mhm. It's no actual injury"

“I just worry

"Well, stop it. You can't fix that, anyway"

“..I know but I can’t help it”

"Hm. I'm fine, though"

“Let me check to put my mind at ease?”

".... check?"

“For injuries”

"I'm not taking off my shirt"

He looks. so defensive

“Why what happened to you?!”

^ idiot

"Quite literally nothing. No injuries. Don't touch me"

^idiot²

“But why can’t I check?”

"Because I refuse to take it off"

“But.. why?”

"... I hate it. Simple as that"

“Hm..”

"I won't die"

“Hm..”

"It's not a real injury. Anymore"

“Are you comfortable?”

"What do you mean?"

“Are you in pain while talking to me?”

"I'm in pain regardless"

“..that’s not good”

"It's a fact of life"

“Shouldn’t be, I think”

"Tell that to the hunters"

“Where.”

"Hm?"

“Did they come back?”

"Ah, no. This is just a remnant of... hm... back then$

“Oh.. hm.” He pokes his forehead, “from what exactly?”

"From the day that made you think I died"

“Oh.. the screams”

"Which logically had a reason. Which I dislike elaborating on"

“I won’t ask, I don’t talk about my experiences I would never make you do that”

"Then kindly never ask to check for injuries again~"

“Mhm, unless you’re actually dying I won’t.”

"I'd rather die than have anyone look under my shirt"

He's. entirely deadpan and serious

“…I’ll prevent your death with your shirt on”

"Smart choice"

“Mhm”

He just. rolls onto his side and turns his back on him

He decides on trying to be helpful… but all he can do is purr so he’s on that

Well, it helps a little. He looks slightly less like he wants to die

He smiles a bit

".... let's not tell Liu Xiao about this, yes?"

“I wouldn’t”

"Mh... good. I don't need him to think locking me up would be smarter after all"

“Please don’t leave?”

"Not intending to"

“Had to check”

"Where would I even go, hm?"

“I don’t know”

"Exactly. I have nowhere else to go"

“I am sorry”

"Why?"

“That this is all you have”

"But why apologize for that?"

“Because I feel bad”

"Why ever would you feel bad?"

He turns back to him. Staring like Xia Fei is the stupid one

“Because you’re trapped and it’s kinda our fault”

"You're letting me wander the woods and into town if I so please, no?"

“Obviously”

"Exactly. So not trapped. If I desired, I could leave"

“Mhm”

"And what do we learn from that~?"

“That I shouldn’t apologise,” he looks like a scolded puppy

"Exactly"

He pats his head

Pouty vamp

"Suffer"

“Rude..”

"Whoops"

“Hmpf”

He grins

“Are you hungry?”

"... not really, pain's good at erasing that"

“Water?”

"Hm... yes"

“I’ll Go get some”

"Thanks"

He gets up and walks off

He turns on his back and stares at the sky

He comes back soon with some water..

He looks basically dead to the world. Aka he's napping

He tried to nudge her awake

Zero reaction, loser is tired

Get shaken

He makes a sort-of pained noise

He sighs, “I’m sorry”

"You're fine"

He rubs a hand over his face

“I brought water”

"Thanks"

He hands it

He's drinking it in record time

He blinks

".... don't look at me like that, I haven't had anything to drink since yesterday"

“You should drink more

"I know"

“Then drinmrow”

"It would be quite nice if moving would stop causing pain"

"... I'll just lay down right here. At least grass is soft. They probably won't need me any time soon"

“..Vein, what happened.”

"Nothing that needs worrying over"

"... I'll just lay down right here. At least grass is soft. They probably won't need me any time soon"

“..Vein, what happened.”

"Nothing that needs worrying over"

“Too late..”

"I'm not injured. Or do you smell blood?"

“I usually smell it off you..”

".... my own?"

“I dunno, think your clothes got stained”

"Ew. Probably, though"

“It’s not that bad”

"Right. So, do you smell fresh blood?"

“Don’t think so?”

"Exactly"

“Hm..”

"Mhm. It's no actual injury"

“I just worry

"Well, stop it. You can't fix that, anyway"

“..I know but I can’t help it”

"Hm. I'm fine, though"

“Let me check to put my mind at ease?”

".... check?"

“For injuries”

"I'm not taking off my shirt"

He looks. so defensive

“Why what happened to you?!”

^ idiot

"Quite literally nothing. No injuries. Don't touch me"

^idiot²

“But why can’t I check?”

"Because I refuse to take it off"

“But.. why?”

"... I hate it. Simple as that"

“Hm..”

"I won't die"

“Hm..”

"It's not a real injury. Anymore"

“Are you comfortable?”

"What do you mean?"

“Are you in pain while talking to me?”

"I'm in pain regardless"

“..that’s not good”

"It's a fact of life"

“Shouldn’t be, I think”

"Tell that to the hunters"

“Where.”

"Hm?"

“Did they come back?”

"Ah, no. This is just a remnant of... hm... back then$

“Oh.. hm.” He pokes his forehead, “from what exactly?”

"From the day that made you think I died"

“Oh.. the screams”

"Which logically had a reason. Which I dislike elaborating on"

“I won’t ask, I don’t talk about my experiences I would never make you do that”

"Then kindly never ask to check for injuries again~"

“Mhm, unless you’re actually dying I won’t.”

"I'd rather die than have anyone look under my shirt"

He's. entirely deadpan and serious

“…I’ll prevent your death with your shirt on”

"Smart choice"

“Mhm”

He just. rolls onto his side and turns his back on him

He decides on trying to be helpful… but all he can do is purr so he’s on that

Well, it helps a little. He looks slightly less like he wants to die

He smiles a bit

".... let's not tell Liu Xiao about this, yes?"

“I wouldn’t”

"Mh... good. I don't need him to think locking me up would be smarter after all"

“Please don’t leave?”

"Not intending to"

“Had to check”

"Where would I even go, hm?"

“I don’t know”

"Exactly. I have nowhere else to go"

“I am sorry”

"Why?"

“That this is all you have”

"But why apologize for that?"

“Because I feel bad”

"Why ever would you feel bad?"

He turns back to him. Staring like Xia Fei is the stupid one

“Because you’re trapped and it’s kinda our fault”

"You're letting me wander the woods and into town if I so please, no?"

“Obviously”

"Exactly. So not trapped. If I desired, I could leave"

“Mhm”

"And what do we learn from that~?"

“That I shouldn’t apologise,” he looks like a scolded puppy

"Exactly"

He pats his head

Pouty vamp

"Suffer"

“Rude..”

"Whoops"

“Hmpf”

He grins

“Are you hungry?”

"... not really, pain's good at erasing that"

“Water?”

"Hm... yes"

“I’ll Go get some”

"Thanks"

He gets up and walks off

He turns on his back and stares at the sky

He comes back soon with some water..

He looks basically dead to the world. Aka he's napping

He tried to nudge her awake

Zero reaction, loser is tired

Get shaken

"It would be quite nice if moving would stop causing pain"

"... I'll just lay down right here. At least grass is soft. They probably won't need me any time soon"

“..Vein, what happened.”
