[heavenlyscourge]

[ Xie Lian will find a white flower, familiar, waiting on the table when he next goes to fix something in the kitchen. And another, should he head to the room shared with his husband, on the pillows. Perhaps everywhere he looks, in their house, there is another little bloom. ]

[disgracedprince]

{The little surprises are gathered with care and tucked into a vase. He hugs the vase to his chest and sniffs the blooms as he searches for his sweet husband.}

Are you planning something?

[heavenlyscourge]

[ Is there a specific number to the blooms or just pure chance? Perhaps only Hua Cheng knows~ He smiles when his beloved finds him and wraps his arms lovingly around the god and the flowers he'd left to be found. ]

Do I need to?

[disgracedprince]

{Could it be for an anniversary? Xie Lian loves the white blossoms and the second he sees Hua Cheng, he smiles with all of the love in his heart.}

No. You've always known my favorite flower. {He can't help thinking about all of the flowers his San Lang has given him over the years - including the ones he left at his temple when he was a child. They were always chosen with such love and care.}

Did you visit Spring?

[heavenlyscourge]

[ One for every decade he'd been unable to find his beloved. Then one for every day since they've been in Etraya. ]

It's my favorite too.

I did. Do you want to visit the field where I found them?

[disgracedprince]

{He sets the big bouquet on a table and takes his husband into his arms.}

I saw a little red flower that reminded me of you once.

{Xie Lian had loved that little bloom, fighting so valiantly to exist in a place where no other flowers grew.}

I do. I would love to see them with you.

[heavenlyscourge]

[ He claims a soft kiss as he curls around his beloved. ]

One that stood against anything that might harm the white flowers? Yes.

[ Well then! He scoops his husband up into his arms and heads for the door, tossing his dice before stepping through, into that field lush with pure white blooms. ]

[disgracedprince]

{He presses into the kiss eagerly and tucks his San Lang against him.}

Yes, exactly! I would love to care for a little flower like that.

{Then he is lifted and he laughs, hugging onto Hua Cheng without a care in the world. When next he opens his eyes, they are surrounded by beautiful flowers!}

They are like the ones in Xianle!

[heavenlyscourge]

[ This trust means everything to him. Hua Cheng holds his precious one close and secure, nothing can make him drop Xie Lian. Those precious feet only touch the ground when his beloved wants to walk! He grins at that bright laugh as he walks, and watches Xie Lian's expression when those sweet eyes open to see the field. ]

Better. This world is better to us.

[disgracedprince]

{He is quite comfortable in his San Lang's arms, not making a single peep or motion to suggest otherwise! Xie Lian has spent many, many centuries on his feet, walking through rough territories and at times, remembering the leg he broke leaping from a tower in Xianle. To be carried by the one he loves is blissful.}

It is, you're right. Can we sit here for a little bit? I never spent much time with the flowers and I do miss them.

[heavenlyscourge]

[ Centuries he hadn't been able to find and keep his beloved safe. Now he has the joy of carrying his precious god. Even with the shackles broken, his husband allows him this joy.

That soft request has him smile and immediately look for the best spot before taking a seat and settling Xie Lian in his lap. ]

We can stay here as long as you want.

[disgracedprince]

Oh! {Xie Lian giggles at the position San Lang chooses for them, immediately leaning in to kiss his love's cheek. He then bows his head, as bashful as one of his flowers fluttering in the wind.}

Ah...San Lang...mm. Our cottage is wonderful. You've built it to withstand the strongest storm. Is... Is there anything you want? From me, that is.
