What's gotten him in this mood?

He strokes Luo Binghe's head, holding him close when he leans against him.

“What has Binghe been thinking about?” he gently asks, absentmindedly raking his fingers through his curls.

He already knew what Shen Qingqiu's answer would likely be, but still, he leant against him with his head bowed.

"This disciple has been thinking, that's all.. It's nothing."

Shen Qingqiu glances up from his paper, surprised by the sudden question.

“... Binghe is not a bad person,” he replies, certain with his answer. “Why does he ask?”

Hold on, is there really a need to strip while cutting cake?

Unable to stop himself from watching, he ends up blocking his gaze entirely with his fan, face a crimson red.

“This master greatly appreciates Binghe's efforts,” he manages to mumble.

He gave a nod. "This one worked throughout the day until he perfected the recipe. Shizun enjoys sweet flavours, I had to capture it accurately."

The robes tumble away as he shifts to cut the cake.

Eyes linger for a second on the slip of skin revealed underneath Luo Binghe's robes.

The pink on his cheek reaches up to his ears— he quickly snaps his fan open and lifts it up to the lower of his face.

“Mn. Did Binghe bake it himself?”

@prlssccmbr.bsky.social "Shizun, am I a bad person?" He shifted his glittering blak gaze over to him, intent behind those eyes.

"Then, Shizun's ideal gift for his birthday is me?" He answered with confidence, dark robes tumbling away from his shoulders.

"Doesn't Shizun want to try this cake first?"

Shen Qingqiu @prlssccmbr.bsky.social · Sep 21

He responds to the question with a small shake of his head, sitting across from Luo Binghe and looking at the cake.

“Mm, no plans. This master was...”

Clearing his throat, cheeks taking on a soft pink.

“Was hoping to spend the day with Binghe.”

Luo Binghe shakes his head, "This husband had arrived just now."

He raised his chin upwards, teeth gleaming as he returned the gesture.

"Does Shizun have any plans for today?"

Shen Qingqiu @prlssccmbr.bsky.social · Sep 21

“Thank you, Binghe.”

He smiles at him, not wasting a second in making his approach.

“Did I make you wait long?”

"Happy birthday, Shizun!" He's waiting for him, a handmade cake on the low table.

Shen Qingqiu @prlssccmbr.bsky.social · Sep 21

Ah. It's his birthday.

Shen Qingqiu lets out a low hum of agreement.

“And now?” He asks. “How does Binghe see this master now, if not untouchable anymore?”

“... Mn. What about it?” He looks to him, curious about the sudden question.
