Xue Yang looks up at him, his usually piercing eyes softer, almost shy, under hooded lids. It’s just a fleeting glance, but it’s intense, and when his eyes return to the ladle in his hand, his smile is sticky sweet.

 Oh, Song Lan thinks. Xue Yang is in love with me.

-

Unbeknownst to himself, Xue Yang falls in love a second time. Song Lan is convinced that this means trouble, especially since he couldn't possibly return Xue Yang's feelings.

My most favorite kind of #songxuexiao fanfics is where they a) witness his pain, b) acknowledge it's value to him, impact on him, c) recognize his violence as a method to alleviate emotional pain, d) accept him - not so much despite that response of his, but almost because of it - with an understanding that "you're only doing this because nobody taught you - and helped you practice - better, so we're gonna teach you and help you practice". I've seen this tagged as "Song Lan and Xiao Xingchen invent rehabilitative justice". Because for sure there are non-violent methods to process your Hard Feelings about Betrayal, and Injustice, and so much other garbage that human interactions can be - yet they are all viewed negatively ("weak", "unproductive", "dependent", etc.) and are not promoted/taught/valued by society at large (part d on the list above). At most, you'll get a directive to "suck it up, that's just life" - but how much do you "suck up" before you choke? This doesn't at all heal the emotional damage, and "cumulative trauma" does exist, too. And I am So Very Tired of emotional pain being dismissed as "you're too sensitive" (that's not a persmission to hurt me), "its all in your head" (and the colorectal cancer is up your ass, what's your point?), "just change your outlook" (this will not change the past circumstances which had hurt me very badly; nor do I want to pretend that my boundaries are non-existent). (part b on the list above) And I don't want to ignore the Part C from that list: your past actions may or may not determine your future, and if you choose to stop the actions of yours which are harmful (to you/others) and if you manage to get plenty of support in establishing - and maintaining - new habits and patterns of behaviour which are less harmful but equally (or more) productive, then you can still build yourself a life you enjoy, without harming others.

Xiao Xingchen and Song Lan catch up with Xue Yang just as he's about to make his dreams come true at the Chang Clan's home.

“ ‘Where compassion is lost,’ ” Xiao Xingchen said, mouth contorting over the words like he was eating lemons, “ ‘there is justice.’ ”

“Exactly,” said Song Lan, “which means we must put compassion first.”

“But Zichen,” Xiao Xingchen said, and Xue Yang could hear the sorrow in his voice like a foreign language, like they were speaking code, tapping into things he hadn’t learned.

Yet.

“Zichen, the compassion was already lost so long ago.”

So Xue Yang had been wrong about who would have been worth to beg for clemency.

“If you’re sure.”

Xiao Xingchen didn’t answer.

Everybody's walked out of Yi City alive. Now it's just three badly adjusted adults (and one badly adjusted teenager) trying to make things work - a project somewhat derailed by a night hunt that turns out to be something else.
