[Zichen looks pleased, unable to look away from them for a few moments.]

How was your day, A-Yang?

[Xingchen touches his cheek shyly and goes back to eating.]

[bringingdowndisaster]

[ Xue Yang grins at them both and sits back at the table. ]

It was good! I finally finished that huge backpiece. Hang on, lemme show you. [ He pulls out his phone and shows a picture of a tattoo on someone's back, depicting a colorful dragon that covers the person's entire back. ]

[gentledawn]

[Xingchen leans in and gasps.] A-Yang, that's beautiful! A dragon that handsome should have a name.

[Zichen hums his agreement, his gaze softening.]

Were they happy?

[bringingdowndisaster]

[ Xue Yang beams under the praise. ]

Mhm! He was very pleased with the result. Guy was covered head to toe in tattoos already. The back was pretty much the only place he hadn't gotten done yet.

[gentledawn]

You're a fine artist. [Xingchen pours them each a glass of wine.] I've never thought about getting a tattoo, but I think I would trust you.

[bringingdowndisaster]

[ Xue Yang grins. ] I'd love to tattoo you. [ He looks at Zichen. ] Both of you. If you'd want me to.

[gentledawn]

I need to be careful with my job. [Zichen murmurs, not entirely against the idea. Xingchen sips some wine, swallowing before he asks:] How do you feel about swords?

[bringingdowndisaster]

[ Xue Yang sips on his own wine before responding. ] You could get one on your back, where no one will see. [ He chuckles a little. ] I mean, I have a tattoo of a sword myself.

[gentledawn]

It's true, you do. [Xingchen pinks and smiles to himself.] I want one too.

[Zichen sighs.] I can't be left out.

[bringingdowndisaster]

[ Xue Yang brightens. ] I can draw some designs for you.

[gentledawn]

Please do. [Xingchen wiggles in excitement.] I need my Shuanghua.

[He pinks and explains:] If I had a sword, I would name it that.

[Zichen's eyes widen.] ...mine...would be Fuxue.

[bringingdowndisaster]

[ Xue Yang makes a surprised face and then tugs up the pant leg up to his right thigh where his sword tattoo is. ] Jiangzai.

[gentledawn]

Maybe we really did know each other...before... [Xingchen bends down and brushes his fingers over the tattoo. Zichen blushes and drinks some wine.]

That's a chaotic name.

[bringingdowndisaster]

[ Xue Yang giggles a little when he sees Zichen blush. How cute... ]

Well, I'm a pretty chaotic person.

[gentledawn]

I have noticed. [Zichen comments, though not without affection.] You say the strangest things.

[bringingdowndisaster]

[ Xue Yang mock-gasps and gets up to slump down on Zichen's lap, arms draped around his neck. ] What do I say that's so strange, hmmm? [ He teases. ]

[gentledawn]

[Xingchen hides a smile behind his wine glass. Zichen looks startled, his face turning darker.]

Well... You sound like you're flirting with others, but apparently you aren't?

[bringingdowndisaster]

[ Xue Yang giggles a little and leans up to kiss at Zichen's jawline. ] Mmm, well, if I'm not talking to you or Xingchen, then it's not flirting.

[zichen]

[His skin is practically radiating heat!] So you're just...teasing...others?

:o didn't know you had an SL account!

[bringingdowndisaster]

Yep. [ Xue Yang grins and nuzzles that warm skin, one hand trailing down Zichen's chest. ]

Ye old Zichen account~

[zichen]

Then how do we know you're not teasing us? [He shifts under the warm weight, confused...and conflicted.]

[bringingdowndisaster]

[ Xue Yang leans up and gently kisses his cheek. ] Hey, you have nothing to be worried about. I only want you two.

[zichen]

[Zichen swallows with difficulty, his eyelids fluttering.]

You've left Xingchen out in the cold.

[bringingdowndisaster]

[ Xue Yang pouts and turns to Xingchen. ] Xingchen, come here~

[zichen]

[Xingchen jumps a little upon being spoken to, his eyes widening.]

Me? [He gets up and walks over to them - only to be pulled into Zichen's lap too. By Zichen.]

Oh... Hello! [Zichen chuckles, an arm around each of their waists.]
