[A vague sound of agreement as he picks out an appropriately sized bowl and ladels some soup into it. He's had to experiment with new ingredients, but with some research and a lot of trial and error he'd found some recipes that were nutritious and delicious.
It helped that he knew Gu Yun's tastes very well.
He leaves the bowl on the table with a spoon.]
Don't let it get cold.
[It was, of course, letting off some steam but he'd also had the machine keep it at that perfect temperature where it was hot but not scalding.]
no subject
......
Strange, it doesn't taste too bad. Or maybe he's getting used to vegetables. Either way, it doesn't take long before the bowl is finished. He sets the bowl aside and stands, reaching up to pat Chang Geng's shoulder. ]
Come on now, let's go to bed. Use my arm as a pillow, perhaps you'll sleep better.
no subject
Not because Chang Geng would sleep well, but he always did sleep better with Gu Yun there and even if not, would he ever give up on the chance to rest in his arms?
Still, he looks back at the bowl first because...he likes things being clean.
...maybe he can come out later, after Gu Yun had fallen asleep, maybe.]
Mm. It's late.
[He just moves the bowl to the sink to be dealt with later. But he pauses again, looking at the flower on the table.]
We should put that in some water.
[Or press it in a book, maybe...?]
no subject
[ He pulls Chang Geng away from his sink puttering to press a kiss against his cheek. What's the boy going to do, clean the kitchen all night? He'll unleash a few more sweet words to distract him from that endeavor. ]
That evening star flower was enough to keep me company when I was alone, but surely it pales in comparison to the real thing.
no subject
...but then he says that and there was no hope of focusing on anything except Gu Yun after that.
He stares, red colour suffusing his cheeks.]
Zi Xi, you...
[He's speechless. It's a little embarrassing how often Gu Yun leaves him that way.]
no subject
In a low whisper, he coaxes: ]
I've asked you twice to bed already, will you make me ask a third time?
[ It's cute to see Chang Geng blush and stammer like this, but also a little sad, he thinks. The boy really ought to have a better opinion of himself. ]
no subject
But in the end, he does smile.]
Who would dare ask the Marquis of Order to ask for anything a third time?
[Certainly not him. He pulls one of Gu Yun's hand's from his cheek to lace their fingers together. He presses a kiss to the knuckles.]
I will, of course, obey my general and go back to bed.
ftb here?
[ The moonlacing effect shoots through his hand as Chang Geng kisses it, warming it further. His eyes lid, as he uses their joined hands to pull the boy along to the bedroom. It's most likely they won't be getting that much sleep for the moment. ]
Keep guard over me, then, for the rest of the night.
Sounds good!
[Whether it was a soldier or a prince, he was always willing to be whatever Gu Yun needed (if not necessarily always what he wanted).
But this wasn't about that. This was just some light-hearted teasing after an evening that was...probably far more emotionally exhausting than was meant to be.
...still, he pauses for a second. If he promises, then there goes his plan to come back out to wash dishes later...
...in the end, it wasn't much of a competition. He'd follow Gu Yun anywhere.]
I hope I can guard your dreams. [Because he would wish Gu Yun happy dreams whenever possible.]
