       "Big brother!"

       Dan Heng's eyes snapped in their direction at the painful cry they let out, and his lips pulled back into a scowl.

       Blood.

       There wasn't a lot of it, but against the snowy backdrop of Belobog, it wasn't exactly difficult to see, either. Their blood coated their little hands as they reached down to their wounded leg instinctively, trying to grasp at or clutch their wound as if that would somehow lessen the throbbing, aching sensating striking up and down their limb with any wrong movements they made. They curled into themselves pitifully.

       With a practiced, skillful flick of his arm, he decimated what remained of the Fragmentum monsters surrounding him and rushed in their direction. He payed no mind to the few monsters that remained; he merely scooped them up into his strong arms and darted away from the battle entirely.

       As much as something hidden away deep inside him snarled and hissed and demanded that he turn back and destroy what dared lay hands on the hiccuping, sobbing child in his arms... it wasn't worth it. It was not worth his time, not when someone so dear to him was in pain.

       No, it was not worth his time nor his energy.

       "You're okay," he murmured (and perhaps it was more to reassure himself than it was to reassure them), one hand gingerly caressing the back of their head. They wept into his neck, hands clawing at his clothes and shoulders. It was as if they sought to ground themselves—to grit their teeth and calm themselves down, despite the agony they were in. "You're okay."

       "It hurts," they cried, face twisting into a grimace whenever Dan Heng moved a little too fast or jolted his body—and subsequenly, theirs—a little too sharply.

       His eyes flickered down to them for a brief moment.

       Dan Heng could swear he felt his heart halt in his chest at the sight of their expression. It made him all the more determined to get them back onto the Express as quickly as he possibly could.

       "...I know," he murmured. "I know, [Name]. Just breathe. We'll be on the Express soon."

       They nodded weakly against his shoulder, sniffling.

       His grip on their fragile body only seemed to tighten.

                         — flower of the universe !! 🌸

       Dan Heng had failed them.

       He, who had never been the type of person to allow harm to befall his loved ones, had failed them.

       Though their wound had been treated, though they no longer appeared to be in pain, he still failed. It was difficult for him not to fixate on those things when he was sitting right next to their bed. They looked tired. He should have done better. He should have—

       "Dan Heng?" their quiet, timid voice squeaked, snapping him out of his thoughts.

       "...What is it?"

       "Can you stay with me tonight?" Their fingers anxiously fidgeted with their blanket as they turned their face towards him. "I'm scared."

       "Of what?"

       "Those monsters. What if they come back to get me..?"

       "They won't get you here," he reassured quietly, calmly, "...but I'll stay, if that makes you feel any better."

       Through the dim lighting, Dan Heng could make out the big smile spreading across their face.

       Somehow, the concerns in his mind dissipated all at once.

please consider reblogging, it helps me out quite a lot!

Emperor ! Jing Yuan x Princess ! Reader

Summary | You are set to marry the Emperor, Jing Yuan. In order to break the engagement, you stage an accident and fake having amnesia. But now, your own cruel, cold, and distant fiancé, who seemed to not want anything to do with you, is now acting all lovey dovey!

Pls comment if you want to be in the taglist!! <3

Chapter 2 | coming soon!

and he melts,

DAN HENG's normally stoic and calm nature makes him an absolute joy to tease.

there are days when he curses his thin face; he blushes so easily and he wishes he didn't, if only because the pinkish hue that spreads over his cheeks and nose seems to spur you on.

call him nicknames, just to watch him freeze. like, full-on 'deer in headlights' type of freeze.

hey, babe; his eyes widen to the size of dinner plates. come on, sweetheart, let's go; the tips of his ears begin to burn. what's cooking, good looking?; he drops his face into his hands.

he's definitely some form of touch-starved, so the easy way you lean against him always makes him feel weak in the knees.

it's hard not to be, though; his eyes are always following you around the room, his smile is always the brightest when you're nearby, his heart skips a beat when you look at him with all that love.

he's not used to so much affection — and a direct frontal attack at that! are you trying to kill him?

💬 DIRECTOR'S CUT: dan heng! the silly ever <3 i always have so much fun writing for him, because he's really just. sad wet cat coded iykwim? anyways, enjoy!

"That Akechi and the protagonist are looking this way is actually to establish that they're aware that this scene is Maruki's ending."

clawing at the bars of my enclosure

letters to you,

sometimes, when he can't sleep, DAN HENG pens letters to you.

he asks you simple questions, mindless things anyone might know: how are you today? have you eaten today? did you sleep well?

he gives you little anecdotes about his day: the trailblazer fell into a trash can again. march and i had to pull them out. we just saw mr yang drink all of himeko's coffee without hesitation. we watched a horror movie and march got so scared that she accidentally shot an arrow into the tv and was scolded by director pom-pom.

he tells you things he doesn't think he'd ever have the courage to tell you otherwise: please come back soon. i miss you. i love you.

there are so many of them now — piles upon piles upon piles.

march gives him pitying glances when she catches him in the act of writing another one. she doesn't understand why he won't just give them to you, when everyone and their mother knows that his love is reciprocated!

but she doesn't understand.

how could he explain? those dizzying, terrifying feelings? the dreams where he's holding cloud-piercer's bloodied shaft, and instead of blade's body lying there — it's yours.

DAN HENG brings nothing but misfortune to all those who love him. he has lost so much already.

he does not think he could lose you too.

💬 DIRECTOR'S CUT: dan heng :) he's such an interesting guy. i think he's definitely the poster boy for bittersweet longing. please enjoy!
