⋆ the young lieutenant's return from the frontlines is a triumphant one. with mimimised losses and careful calculations, they'd dealt a devastating blow to the denizens of abundance. the moment he arrives he is confused — - why are people still so frantic? it's only from a passing soldier's cry that he learns.. his dearest, his precious /yingxing/ had rushed into the heat of battle, headstrong as he was, and.. he'd gotten injured. immediately his heart fills with panic, sprinting despite his exhaustion to the medical tent he knows yingxing must be in. and within moments (thought that felt like an eternity) he's at his love's side. ⋆ yingxing, my love.. i'm here. i'm back.. please tell me you're alright. /please/..
