yes, i am evil 😭😭😭 it broke my heart as well 💔

says, "i do, wwx, i do" and wwx kisses the crown of his head.

/// for a deeper heartbreak imagine it set after lotus pier falls, right before wwx gives jc his own core...

people shouldn't say things like that, that their future is nebulous and uncertain, that one day one of them could wake up and be /alone/...)

but jiang cheng is pinned beneath him, hands resting at wwx's hips, and wwx whispers, "trust me, please. trust me" and jc falls back against the pillows and

you are, wwx promises, tightening his arms around jc. you are, i swear it--

( fear grips him then. fear tells him that

www? for how long? - as he sinks into jc's body, filling all the empty spaces between them, moving breathtakingly slow, hips rocking, sighs mingling.
