...it’s not, it’s not only that. [ how can he say that doesn’t feel like he’s worth loving... that having somebody feel similarly is what’s truly unexpected. ] I don’t know how to put it to words, but it doesn’t really matter. I’m happy, and that’s what counts. You make me happy, Xiansheng.
[ grunts, lips turning up into a smile as he invites zhongli to deepen the kiss. he loops his arms around his waist to tug him impossibly closer. ] A skhozhu po tebe s uma. [ murmured against his lips when he needs to take a short breath. ]
Hah, [ his face flushes at the attention give to his ears, the furry little nubs twitching as he subconsciously leans into the touch - tail wagging. ] but only a select few get to see this side of me. Xiansheng is special.
How can I say no? I look forward to seeing what you have in store for me.
[ it’s hard not to melt into the delicate touches zhongli is giving to his ear, a pleased little hum escaping him despite himself. ] Xiansheng~ [ he’s about to start nuzzling up into his hand when his own is pinned to the shelf. the flush on his cheeks darkens as his eyes flicker to his newly secured hand. ]
I mean I knew that much. I just, ah, I had been hoping for a bit more... insight. [ so he can attempt to save face when zhongli inevitably MURDERS HIM. ]
[ he swallows thickly as he feels zhongli's fingers slip beneath the hem of his glove, stroking skin that rarely sees the light of day. ] I, uhm, I guess it could be? H- Heh.
[ His fingers continue moving up Childe's palm, sliding across the skin and up the length of Childe's fingers. Eventually, the glove becomes enough of a hinderance that Zhongli pinches it at the tip of Childe's index finger to pull it off entirely, placing it carefully on the oh so convenient shelf behind him.
Which leaves Zhongli free to skate his fingertips across Childe's skin as he gives his response. ]
You've been so thoughtful today, anticipating what I need before I even ask for it. It is quite warm - that kind of feeling of being known. I wish to do the same for you. Though you'll have to be a little patient with me as I learn the ins and outs of what your body wants.
[ he bites his lip to keep from making anymore noise, but it’s difficult and a little whine inevitably escapes him as he squirms back against the shelf. ]
I’m glad, I like- [ blinks, flushing a dark red. ] E- Excuse me, my... my body? [ he tips his head and laughs. ] Of course, Xiansheng, I can be patient for you. I think you’ll find my body is, ah, relatively eager to tell you what it wants and what it likes.
[ And he leans down to place a kiss on Childe's exposed wrist. ]
By making you comfortable first. You did just purchase me this nice and new comfortable living space.
We should make use of it.
[ And with a tug on their joined hands, he starts walking backwards stepping over the stuffed animals strewn of the floor with a graceful ease in order to lead Childe over to the bed. ]
I did, s- sure, ... [ he can feel his heart beating in his ears as zhongli drops a kiss onto his wrist; chest heaving a bit more rapidly because this is really happening. ] Alright. [ follows, not taking nearly as much care as zhongli, mostly because he feels like he's in something of a daze, so he inevitably trips over one of them and gently collides into him to send them both toppling onto the bed. ] Ah, sorry. [ chuckles, ducking his head a bit. ] Or, y'know what, I'm not. [ presses down into zhongli and gives him a kiss. ] I'm right where I want to be.

Zhongli doesn't even know what to say to that. Is not used to being the inarticulate one.
So. . . ]

Perhaps a little enthusiastically as Zhongli lets go of the plush in favor of pressing Childe up against his brand new shelving. ]

The esteemed diplomat has always been a charmer.
[ And he reaches up to pet at one of Childe's ears. ]
How fortunate am I to be on the receiving end of his attentions.
But--
Perhaps today he will let me return the favor.

[ One hand keeps stroking his ears, scritching behind them and wrist shifting to roll with each twist and turn.
He removes his other hand from Childe so he can take his wrist and press it gently put firmly against the edge of one shelf, pining it there. ]

Not going to spoil the surprise?

[ Zhongli slips two fingers under the hem of Childe's glove, dragging his fingertips up and across his palm. ]
Is that the surprise?
