Hua Cheng does not let go of him all night. Xie Lian wanted to be reminded of his touch; to feel all that his husband is, every single inch of him, to have his everything bestowed upon him. His husband touches him carefully—tonight is for light caresses and gentle traces along his skin. It is for leaving soft marks against his arms, his legs, his torso, his neck, for his face to be peppered with adoring kisses and for his husband’s hand to never part from his own.
(Or, Xie Lian cannot help but be overwhelmed with just how much Hua Cheng’s touch means to him.)

Hua Cheng will do everything in his power to make Xie Lian’s life easy. The past had made the mere fact of his existence hard for reasons that were in no way his own fault; and Hua Cheng refuses to ever let Xie Lian face such hardships again. Because his husband deserves anything and everything and Hua Cheng would give him absolutely all of that and more if he could (one day, he will).
Right now, what Xie Lian needs is rest, and so Hua Cheng will hold him and let him; for however long he wants, however long he needs, and Hua Cheng will always be there, beside him, when he wakes.
(Or, Hua Cheng admires Xie Lian as he sleeps, and he not only thinks about just how beautiful his beloved is as he rests, but also about how Xie Lian finally has the peace he has always deserved, right in Hua Cheng's arms.)

Never Fade
It happens for a split second.
But a split second is more than enough for a vicious chill of fear to sink into his veins and make his heart go still.
(Or, Hua Cheng flickers for a split second, just over a month after he had returned to Xie Lian, and Xie Lian immediately takes care of him, because he can not bear to think of another year without Hua Cheng by his side.)

Share the Burden
By the time he opens the door to the cottage, he feels so exhausted that he can barely keep his eyes open. He walks straight into something firm and hard yet gentle and soft at the same time, and before he can look up he is embraced within the arms of the one he loves the most. A loving kiss is placed on his temple, and Xie Lian practically melts into his husband.
“You were gone for longer than anticipated, Gege, I missed you,” Hua Cheng whispers, delicately squeezing his waist before leaning back so that he can see Xie Lian’s face.
A frown immediately replaces the lazy smile that his husband was wearing. “Are you alright, Gege? Your eyes are drooping.”
(Or, Xie Lian doesn't know how to stop moving and has a habit of taking on too much. Hua Cheng is there to remind him that it’s okay to rest, and that he doesn’t have to bare any burden alone anymore. He also has his friends to remind him of the very same.)

Feng Xin’s eyes flash with concern. “So?! What the fuck happened? Are you dying or something?”
“Does he look like he’s dying to you? Better question is, is it infectious? Is that why you told us not to come? You look fine.” Mu Qing squints at him, crossing his arms over his chest.
“I’m fine physically, don’t worry,” Xie Lian assures. “It’s more… Ah, I’ll just show you.” He shakes his head decidedly and clamps his mouth shut. You see, it’s like this, he thinks and both Feng Xin and Mu Qing’s eyes widen.
“What the fuck!” Feng Xin bursts out. “What the fuck! What the fucking fuck! How the hell did you just talk?! Your mouth wasn’t moving!”
While Feng Xin bristles, Mu Qing’s face softens with clarity. “Are you stupid?” He whacks Feng Xin’s shoulder soundly, and Feng Xin makes an indignant noise, smacking him back. Mu Qing ignores him, too interested in Xie Lian’s current predicament. “His thoughts are public! Whatever he thinks, we can hear!”
(Xie Lian gets hit with evil qi from a dispersing spirit and wakes up the next day with all his thoughts public for those around to hear! How embarrassing...)

Greetings fellow humans.
Have you ever wondered about what the life (and death) of the Chicken Spirit who makes Soup in TGCF was like? Well so have I, and I wrote a short fic about it called "Chicken Soul for the Soup"
You should write a fic about him too because I couldn't tell if he had a character tag that I couldn't find or if not enough had been written about him.

Rainfall
“I was only ever so cruel to Wuming,” he says, voice barely audibly above the wind. Hua Cheng hears him—no sound will ever be loud enough to prevent his husband from hearing everything Xie Lian has to say.
“To you,” Xie Lian continues. He tries to keep his breath steady, but it’s hard because this is the first time that he is sharing this with his husband—his first time uttering the very words into existence at all. It is the first time he is admitting not only to his husband, but to the ground, the sky, the ocean—about how much Wuming’s death had haunted him.
(Or, Xie Lian will sit in the rain, and let the memories of the past wash over his skin. It is his way of never forgetting, of honouring, those who had been the reason that Xie Lian was alive, as he was, today. For the first time, as it rains, Xie Lian shows Hua Cheng the place where he always goes when the downpour brings back stark memories of 800 years ago— and now, he can revisit the past, for once, with the one he loves by his side.)

“San Lang…”
Hua Cheng jolted awake. In his arms, Xie Lian stirred and mumbled his name.
Xie Lian has a nightmare. Hua Cheng helps him through it.
This is my first time writing Hualian, I really hope I did them justice because they mean so much to me. For some reason I chose to write from Hua Cheng’s pov even though I relate more to Xie Lian but. I challenged myself I guess. He’s lovely to write in any case though.
Shoutout to @qifreyplushie for rambling with me the other day which is what gave me the inspiration for this fic (and it was also so fun, you’re welcome to ramble about hua cheng with me anytime). seriously, i have such a hard time coming up with plots and structures and the rambling allowed me to get the thoughts out of my brain enough to build a fic, so thank you fr <3
