‘ Not really, what could be even counted as too much for long lived species like you and me~? ’
He jokes lightly with a small chuckle, tail swinging lazily. It did indeed take some time, but the general was so entertained that he didn’t even feel the period of time.
⠀
he felt his touch , warmth being the reason behind dan heng noticing his presence before his eyes could even witness its brightness . how embarrassing this was , feeling like he disrespected him .
⠀⠀“ ahh … were you … were you here for too long ? ” almost tripped
⠀
@infectblade ‘ If there is nothing for you to feel why are you so desperate towards death? Why are you suffering? Shouldn’t you be an empty shell with no past and only a present and no future? ’
@infectblade ‘ If they do not make you that man, then why are you holding grudges from this man’s life? Even your whole mantra, following your own words, you were not the one to do a forbidden act as yingxing died that very day. ’
The usually sunny and bright general is unusually cold.
@infectblade ‘ Hmm, well, you seem to hold your grudges quite firmly and I surely teased you far too much even during our childhood, right? ’
He jesters a bit lightheartedly yet said brightness dulls a bit at followed words.
‘ It must be lonely, right? I’m all that survived these days ’
@infectblade The general blinks, foot dangling out of the floor a bit, how rare. His tail swings behind him as he smiles, one hand moving up to allow his cheek to rest against it.
‘ Oh? You like me that much~? You can’t even be satisfied with my parting, how curious… ’
The foxian spent this time looking at the tail with great detail, counting scales and edges, even keeping his fingers hovering over quite eager to touch. He peeked at his own tailed and compared both, all until his font of entertainment evaporated in thin air almost making a pout
⠀
he kept wagging the end of his tail , moving like a brush on a paper for a few more minutes until it tangled on one of the general’s arms , noticing only then about his presence with a little jump , making the tail disappear .
⠀⠀“ ¡ ah , general ! i — sorry . ”
⠀
@infectblade He chuckles, not even slightly scared, a firm grasp over the hand pressing his throat. Eyes curved, bangs moving away to show sparkling ones.
‘ You should know I wouldn’t be troubled to die in your hands, blade ’
@infectblade The foxian didn’t want things to escalate and get out of control, fighting surely had its appeal, making one feel alive and trilled, yet it also brought the losing of the ones he treasured the most. He should have known this person was too addicted to that feeling…
@infectblade Even at the clear annoyance and the fall of body that tail doesn't move at all. Surely an experienced general could dodge or at least react quickly to such advances, yet the foxian simply let it happen out of curiosity. Raising his eyebrows.
' So? What do you have in mind? '
@infectblade The reaction instead of intimidating the foxian triggers a chuckle out of him, tail wrapping casually around the arm that grabbed his own, eyes finally lifting to meet the red ones. He hums happily, wetting his lips as he tilts his head. ' More like I'd like to see you try '
@infectblade He clicks his tongue, tracing the bandages at face level with his fan, eyes not even lifting to face the other in clear provocation as he sneers.
‘ Hmm? Am I forbidden to? And who is stopping me exactly? ’
( the lips of the general twitch, trying to resist a laugher at seeing the other mimic his usual gestures. He places two fingers over the fan, pushing it back and leans forward with a smirk ) Do you have any guesses?
@infectblade Such a drastic pulling should hurt like hell, yet once it belonged to someone that grew so numb to pain and so used to hiding, it felt almost like a pinch. Rather, the way he was pressed against the broad chest got the foxian more moved. ‘ H-Huh, wow. Ahem, what do you mean? ’
