[Video; UN: gentlebreeze]

[gentledawn]

This month, I will be turning twenty. [It feels like a momentous age; a shift into something new. But he has no idea how to celebrate the occasion and thus he brings his questions to the network:]

How would you celebrate a birthday? We didn't make much of a fuss about them with my Master, yet this world is different. I want to try making the day special.

Just know that I am not fond of overindulging in alcohol. Sweet wines are my favorite if I need to choose, but I have my fill of them quickly.

Comments

[gentledawn]

[He blushes when he notices the attention, his ears perking hopefully.]

It might all turn white. Would you still be attracted to me?

[Xingchen wraps Zichen up in his arms and nuzzles over his face.]

You only must endure kisses.

[tobrushawaysnow]

[ He strokes over those perked ears, giving them just as much love and attention as he'd paid that lovely hair. ]

You are beautiful in any form.

[ His breath huffs out in almost a chuckle and he leans into those nuzzles, pressing against his beloved's embrace. ]

As long as they are your kisses.

[gentledawn]

[The ears relax and Zishu might feel Xingchen's puffy tail wagging.]

I will be a Winter rabbit. [His nuzzles soon turn into kisses and he peppers Zichen's face and neck with them.]

I can promise they will be! I won't let someone steal my kisses.

[tobrushawaysnow]

[ He smiles, relaxing under those kisses and hums. ]

Perfect.

[ Zichen strokes over that cute little tail, too! ]

I believe you, my Xingchen.

[gentledawn]

[His cheeks heat and he bites his lip, smiling shyly.]

Do you like my tail?

[tobrushawaysnow]

[ He can't resist kissing that smile either! ]

I do. It suits you.

[gentledawn]

[He whimpers softly and brings their foreheads together.]

You are bonded to a rabbit, my Zichen. I always want you.

[tobrushawaysnow]

[ His heart leaps at that statement and his cheeks flush. But then he stands, lifting his mate with him to carry him to their bed. ]

Then let me answer some of your need.

[gentledawn]

[He curls his arms around Zichen's neck and kisses one of his ears tenderly.]

You are all I need. [Xingchen wiggles to the side when he is set down, making room for his beloved.]

[tobrushawaysnow]

[ That ear flicks under the gentle kiss and he nuzzles his beloved. ]

I don't doubt us, Xingchen.

[ Never again.

Zichen gently places his soulmate down on the bed before pulling their boots off. Then stretches out beside Xingchen and reaches for him. ]

[gentledawn]

[How cute! Are they sensitive? Xingchen smirks and decides to find out. Once their boots are removed, he hurries into Zichen's awaiting arms.]

I love you so much. I'm going to show you what you mean to me.

[He lifts himself to kiss those adorable ears, nuzzling them and rubbing his cheek against Zichen's soft hair.]

[tobrushawaysnow]

[ He pulls his beloved close and nuzzles their noses together with a soft hum. ]

I love you too, my Xingchen. [ The promise sends a shiver through him - or is it because of the attention to his ears? Either way it makes his breath catch! And he presses close, eyes half closing in trust and love. ]

Show me anything. I am yours.

[gentledawn]

[His heart swells at just the sound of Zichen's voice. He is gentle about untying his beloved's robe and he draws him into a slow, loving kiss as he pushes the fabric from Zichen's shoulders.]

I want you to feel precious because that is what you are to me.

[tobrushawaysnow]

[ He presses into the kiss and shifts, helping remove his clothes. Baring himself to his soulmate in a way that will always feel special to him now. ]

I give myself to you.

[ Because of trust. Because of love. Because their bond has faced so much, and is so very strong. ]

[gentledawn]

[A shuddering breath leaves his lips when Zichen is stripped bare. There are a thousand places he wants to kiss, but first he rids himself of his clothes, crawling over his beloved when he is bare too. See? They are always equal; always one.]

You have me too.

[He traces down Zichen's neck and over his chest, smiling softly when he feels his lover's heart beating under his fingertips.]

[tobrushawaysnow]

[ Equals. Zichen settles onto his back, welcoming his soulmate on top of him. Relaxing under the warm heat of this man's body, sheltering him. Loving him. He knows even his heart is steady under that hand, and he leans up to kiss him softly. ]

[gentledawn]

[He feels Zichen relax and his heart skips a beat. It's wonderful to see the love of his life so at ease with him. He meets the kiss halfway and presses himself against his beloved, trailing kisses from Zichen's lips to his neck, sucking on the tender skin.]

[tobrushawaysnow]

[ The primary reason for his ease is because of his love for his soulmate. The rest was due to Runyu's gift. Even without it being repeated all that often, he holds onto that feeling and it helps.

Zichen runs gentle hands over what he can reach of his soulmate, enjoying the press of lips over his skin and the warm weight of this man's body. ]

[gentledawn]

[His sweet mate is so very brave. Xingchen wants to be his home; his place of rest no matter where they go. Their hearts beat in sync and he grins, continuing his kisses over Zichen's collarbone and then down the center of his chest.

He is already beginning to harden and that too is pressed to his mate. The silent message is simple: I want you. With all of his heart and soul.]

[tobrushawaysnow]

[ Xingchen already is that.

The kisses make him shiver and he arches up to encourage more as he offers himself to his beloved. Zichen can feel how his body responds, Xingchen isn't the only one growing hard. He rocks his hips up to rub their arousals together, feeling the jolt of pure pleasure and heat that takes his breath away. ]

[gentledawn]

[His hand finds their hardening arousals and brings them flush together. He rubs their shafts together and with his fingers, his lips parting at the rush of bliss the action causes. And the fact that he is doing this with Zichen just makes it more intense.]

Zichen... [Xingchen breathes the name, kissing his beloved before he lowers himself to kiss Zichen's cock too.]

[tobrushawaysnow]

[ He gasps at the feel of his beloved's hand, claiming him there. Welcomes the pleasure and the connection. It makes his whole body throb.

He answers that sweet kiss before shuddering as those familiar lips kiss his cock. ]

Xingchen. [ A renewed promise laces his voice, saying his beloved's name. ]

[gentledawn]

[Claiming him. Loving him. Xingchen nibbles on Zichen's lips before kissing and nuzzling his cock. He hears his name and he knows what he wants. What he needs. Grabbing the oil from their bedside table, he rises and takes Zichen's hand, kissing his palm.]

Will you let me love you, Zichen?

[tobrushawaysnow]

[ He shudders under those gentle lips, feeling the affection sink into his very being. Swallowing at the love he feels for and from his soulmate, he rubs his thumb over Xingchen's lips. ]

Yes.

[gentledawn]

[That thumb is kissed again and he beams.] I will be gentle with you, love.

[He dips his fingers into the oil, making them slick. Then he presses himself between Zichen's muscular thighs and, first, teases his cock, stroking him and kissing him there.]
