[Closed] Love gives life.

[gentledawn]

⌛ Who: Xiao Xingchen & Song Zichen (Open to Wei Wuxian too!)
⌛ What: It's time to bring Zichen back to life.
⌛ When: Evening.
⌛ Where: One of the parks.
⌛ Warnings: Talk about spells, death, potential discussions of past dismemberment: you know, usual MDZS/The Untamed stuff.

He asked Zichen to meet him in one of the more spacious parks. In a clearing, bordered by dark trees, he has made the preparations for the spell. Blood stains the grass-blades and there is something bright white congregated in the center of the circle; it glows fervently, glistening in the dying sunlight. Xingchen keeps his eyes trained on that bit for it is the most important part of the spell.

The life force.

Tying off a bandage on his hand, he takes a seat and smiles calmly, waiting. Shuanghua has been wiped clean, but it rests on his lap, ready to spill more of Xingchen's blood if necessary.

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.

There is nothing for his handsome soulmate to fear. Xingchen only means to show him all of the love he deserves. The joy of having his touch accepted leaves him beaming, his eyes warm and bright. He feels he could do anything and, so, despite being a bit shaky and tired, he offers to carry his beloved home.

"Are you certain?" he flushes and rises slowly, reaching for Zichen immediately. His soulmate's hand is taken and he entwines their fingers, sighing happily.

"Lean on me if you need to."
