Aaron/Huaisang

[creeksidealtarboy]

It's nightfall by the time Aaron finally sees this "Impure Realm" that they took him to. He's hungry. He's filthy. He's thirsty. And there's nothing around him that's familiar. He has cigarettes in the pocket of his jeans and nothing else of his own. No note. No information.

Only the vaguely unsettling feeling that he's been deposited somewhere...wrong.

These people look like Huaisang. The robes, the way they move...it's familiar enough that, before they could unsheath their swords, he's throwing his hands out, asking for Nie Huaisang to their complete bafflement. But they loaded him up and took him. Goddamn.

Hopefully they sent someone ahead.

"I have too much Yang energy," he explains happily. "You're dark, and I'm light. We balance each other, give and take and give and take, always keeping each other in check."

"Then you can rearrange the furniture all you want. Whatever makes you happy, man."

He strokes his hair gently. "I got a favor to ask, though."

"Ask for as many favors as you wish," he murmurs, kissing along his neck.

Aaron laughs, pushing him away, but only playfully. "I'm serious, man. If I'm gonna stay here, then - I want to do what I wanted to do. What I couldn't do at home. I want to be a doctor. Even if I have to learn a whole new kind of medicine."

A doctor. Well, Huaisang has a few ideas about that. He smiles a little and nods, fingers trailing over Aaron's chest. "I'll find you the best doctors to apprentice under."

Aaron laughs. "That easy?"

"That easy." He brings a touch of qi to the tips of his fingers and sends that warm energy through him, hoping to soothe him to sleep with him. "You deserve it. You deserve it all."

Aaron shakes his head, but settles, closing his eyes again. "Whatever you say, man," he mutters, though there's a smile as he finally sleeps.
