He's getting better at relaxing and accepting touches thanks to being here. Xingchen...and Wen Kexing have only helped. Zichen finds himself smiling at that sweet little hum and he doesn't flinch from those warm hands. Not even when fingers trail over his throat.

The image his beloved makes when Xingchen finally pushes up to his feet has his smile widen a little more before he shakes his head a little.

"You have used a lot of energy, love. We can support each other."

Because he isn't so sure how much energy he has left either. It's enough, he finds when he moves, to get him to his feet. Then holds out a hand to his sweet soulmate.
