[ There are many answers he could give to that. Incredulity, that anyone would think Nie Mingjue would force himself on anyone in such a manner. Anger, that any might think he could be overpowered so easily.
But neither fit, and so they are set aside in favor of gentle affection for his worried little brother. ]
Yes.
[ He's silent for a moment, attention distracted by his resting lover. ]
Our hearts know where they lay. Even if our society seeks to deny them.
(He doesn't think either of those things. The question is asked because his brother deserves no less. In a way, they are the only family they have and Wangji will stand against anyone who forces Xichen to move or act in a way that goes against his brother's wishes.)
I am not society.
(So he will not deny them this joy.)
Men can...join? I would not like to fumble with Wei Ying.
[ He enjoys his brother's utter honesty, though others see it as rude or cold. Xichen has never seen it that way. ]
Oil or lotion. Anything that will do the body no harm if applied internally. Scents can enhance various sensations; mint can bring a hint of sharpness, lavender relaxes...I am sure you can apply your existing knowledge for this, didi.
Mm. Yes. Lubricant should still be used, and stretching the muscles so they accept penetration easier. A certain amount of force is often enjoyable, but if you tear your lover...they will need time to heal before you are intimate like that again.
(Xichen is the one who has always reached out to him, no matter the circumstances. Wangji would feel wrong keeping any truth from him, especially truths of this magnitude. He wants to have sex with Wei Ying.)
I wouldn't tear him. (He would...try not to.) I'm not sure I could be gentle. I feel...desperate.
[ There's a pause, then a quiet little breath - not quite a cough, but a very delicate sound. ]
Then you are like myself and Mingjue. Speak with Wei-gongzi, didi. I am sure you two will find your way together and what works for you. Be prepared to care for him afterwards, as I know you will.
(Voice...whispered...for a certain Nie's sake!)
Gege, you have consented?
[Voice]
But neither fit, and so they are set aside in favor of gentle affection for his worried little brother. ]
Yes.
[ He's silent for a moment, attention distracted by his resting lover. ]
Our hearts know where they lay. Even if our society seeks to deny them.
[Voice]
I am not society.
(So he will not deny them this joy.)
Men can...join? I would not like to fumble with Wei Ying.
[Voice]
Nor am I, didi.
[ He'll fight just as fiercely for his brother to be able to be with the one he loves. To protect him, always. ]
Yes. It is not as seamless as with a man and woman, but with a little patience and...help, it does no harm to either man.
[Voice]
The help... Is it oil? There would need to be lubrication...
(Yes, he has done a little studying.)
But if we are in a bath...
[Voice]
Oil or lotion. Anything that will do the body no harm if applied internally. Scents can enhance various sensations; mint can bring a hint of sharpness, lavender relaxes...I am sure you can apply your existing knowledge for this, didi.
Mm. Yes. Lubricant should still be used, and stretching the muscles so they accept penetration easier. A certain amount of force is often enjoyable, but if you tear your lover...they will need time to heal before you are intimate like that again.
[Voice] I did my shot a little early, wooo~!
I wouldn't tear him. (He would...try not to.) I'm not sure I could be gentle. I feel...desperate.
[Voice] YAY
Then you are like myself and Mingjue. Speak with Wei-gongzi, didi. I am sure you two will find your way together and what works for you. Be prepared to care for him afterwards, as I know you will.
[Voice] :3
Why would I not care for him after? (And always?) I do not desire one thing from him.
[Voice]
Xichen smiles softly, even if it can't be seen - it can be heard. ]
I know. [ He's proud of his little brother. ]
[Voice]
Rest. I will make breakfast and leave it outside the door.
[Voice]
Xichen can't quite help the rueful note in his voice. ]
Thank you.
[ He has a feeling they'll be a while.... ]
[Voice]
Good night.
