            beads  of  sweat  begin  to  build  the  second  he  swallows  it  down,  everything  feeling  like  it  must  be  on  alight.  for  all  of  the  heat  that’s  trying  to  end  him,  the  flavour  is  definitely  there.  it’s  just..  extremely  spicey  for  a  clear  palatted  lan.  nodding  stiffly,  lan  zhan  tries  his  best  to  seem  pleased  (  he  really  is  happy  about  how  good  it  is,  but  the  chilli..  ).  “  ..  mn—  yes.  w-    ..ah—   wei  ying’s  cooking  is  good..  very  good.  ”  

@lanclans,    "   what  do  you  think,   lan  zhan?  "    and  that  shine  in  his  eyes  is  hopeful,  pulling  the  spoon  away  from  his  boyfriends  lips  and  back  over  the  pot  he'd  been  tending  to.   lan  zhan's  face  flushes in  reaction  the  spice,   though  wei  ying  was  /sure/  he  hadn't  added  that  much.    "  is  it  good?   "

            [   larger  hands  push  the  bundle  of  gifts  further  into  wei  ying’s  arms,  accompanied  by  a  tilt  of  the  lan’s  head.  confused  by  his  lover  not  accepting  what  he  clearly  bought  for  him.  ]

@lanclans,    what  are  you—   lan  zhan!   i  don't  need  all  of  this! 

/  if i said drunkzhan gifting wy like everything bc he impulse bought yes

@yilaozus GIMMEEE

            i  do,  he  is  suitable  for  what  jiang  wanyin  is  not.  i  can  if  he  doesn’t  become  more  tolerable  to  be  around.

@lanclans,     he's  still  a-xue's uncle.   you  can't  keep  her  from  him.   mm..    but  if  you  /insist/  on  wen  ning—-

/  lz and his digs at jc r so funny to me

@yilaozus 
            
            a-xue  did  not  bite  you,  if  i  recall.  wei  ying  should  reconsider.

@lanclans,    you  will  be.   i'll  be  locking  our  bedroom!   your  actions  have  consequences,   lan  zhan!

@yilaozus 
            
            i  will  not  be  sleeping  there  unless  it  is  with  you,  i’m  sure  a-xue  would  agree.  mwah.

@yilaozus
            
            you  were  resting,  i  didn’t  wish  to  disturb  you.  not  hungry,  she  refused  food..  but  wei  ying  can  try  if  he  wants  to.  ///  this  isn’t  the  first  time,  i  don’t  mind.

@lanclans,    and  you  could  have  woken  me.    she  might  be  hungry.   mm..   does  lan  zhan  mind  if  i  sit  in  on  his  little  performance?   

@yilaozus
            
            one  of  us  needed  to  get  up  to  check  on  her,  i  simply  made  the  decision  to.  she  was  crying..  i  thought-   it  might  help.  my  mother  sang  to  me,  when  i  was  a  child.

            my  pallet  isn’t  extreme.  wei  ying’s  would  be  questionable.  chillies  will  be  too  much  to  start  off.

@lanclans,     and  usually  i'd  say  our  baby  taking  after  her  baba  is  just  fine,   but  i  don't  know  if  ill  be  able  to  handle  a-xue  inheriting  your  lan  pallet! 

@yilaozus 
            
            but  her  pallet  may  be..    sensitive,  we  do  not  know  if  she  has  taken  your  own,  or..

            [   it’s  obvious  by  the  burning  flushes  that  he  feels  strongly  about  the  idea,  trying  to  lean  into  the  kiss  before  he  slips  away  again.  ]   there  is  nothing  difficult  to  move,  anywhere  will  be  fine.

@lanclans,     and  if  it  isn't  warm  enough..   then  lan  zhan  can  warm  me  up.    (   he  walks  two  of  his  fingers  up  along  his  husband's  chest,   wei  ying  raising  on  his  toes  to  kiss  the  corner  of  the  latter's  lips.   )   we  have  to  figure  out  where  to  set  up,   lan  zhan! 

@yilaozus 
            
            ..   ////   yes,   we  can.  
            [   a  flush  arises  from  the  tops  to  the  tips  of  his  ears,  glad  of  the  place  they  could  call  a  potential  long  term.  ]

@yilaozus 
            
            you  never  complain.  we  are  nearly  there,  and  the  ground  is  dirty.  hold  on.

@lanclans,   i  don't  remember  saying  that  i  wished  to  be  manhandled  either!

@yilaozus 
            
            mn,     no.  wei  ying’s  words  have  consequences.  you  said  you  didn’t  want  to  walk.
