Hello! May I request something platonic for Dan Heng:
What would it be like being his younger teen sibling, biologically? We know that Dan Heng isn't exactly expressive, but does that also include his younger sibling? If so, how does it affect the relationship?

— notes. i’ll be going with a sibling on the extroverted side of things, i think it’d be a good balance for dan heng’s more reserved personality !!

dan heng had told you before, during the days that led up to the time that he finally made the decision to leave — he had told you many times that you didn’t have to follow him. following him would mean that you too would not be able to set foot in the place you grew up to see as home, and it meant that you’d get entangled in a mess of problems that weren’t yours to worry about; problems that were too heavy a burden that even dan heng was running away from it. problems that he could shield you from by being the only one to leave instead, which would mean that you’ll still have a chance to be offered a decent life if you choose to stay behind at the xianzhou luofu. but at your insistence, he finally relented and let you come along with him.
but now, he supposes, it might’ve actually been a good thing that you were so set on your decision. it gave him some sort of sense of security knowing that he could be able to look out for you himself rather than worrying if you’d be targeted if he just left you on your own back at the luofu. taking this path of escape surely wouldn’t be a smooth-sailing one, and the two of you had to change appearances and names, and move from place to place without a single solid one to settle down in. after all, you’d never know if the very thing dan heng was trying to run from would catch up again.
it was safer now, being with the astral express. there was a sense of stability that it brought you, knowing that this was a place you could stay and be treated like family by the other welcoming members.
in contrast to dan heng’s more reticent disposition, you were more relaxed and comfortable with carrying conversations with others, more open with things.
when you’re around people dan heng doesn’t trust or doesn’t know well enough — take sampo, for example, (sorry my guy) — you could notice that he’s a little bit more frigid than usual. it’s just that protective older sibling instinct, since he doesn’t want you to be getting yourself into any sort of trouble and that responsibility would fall onto him as your older brother — and you’re a teenager, too, so that sort of just raises the overall protectiveness. if he’s particularly inclined to ‘subtly’ stop the interaction, he’d cut in with some excuse like “i think it’s time for us to go back to the express to report back to mr. yang/miss himeko,” (a very frequently-used phrase from him, you realise. while you were no mind reader, as someone who’s known him for your whole life, seeing through his excuses definitely came easier to you than most.)
overall, your differing personalities seem to balance each other out in many ways. dan heng is the type of older sibling who would mostly let you explore as you like and do your own things without having to constantly watch you since he trusts that you’re responsible enough, but also doesn’t want to completely leave you alone in an unfamiliar area without him. he would prefer if he handles the combat himself — and if the situation gets to it, he will directly push you to the side and out of harm’s way so he could take the attack instead of you. he’s the type of sibling to occasionally buy random things for you that he thinks you’d like. for example, after finally resolving the belobog conflict and being allowed to walk through its streets without a bounty on all your heads, he would’ve definitely been ready to depart that planet and return to the express without further ado— ah, but on second thought... maybe after buying this book for you first.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
it's 3am. staring at a dead end ceiling while you're all laid out in your perfectly warm mattress. blinking a few times, thinking about all the cute things you can ever do with xiao. my god, were you thinking about him-- no... missing him?
it felt like you were going into so many notions. this wouldn't really feel normal to yourself from way back but... is it that lovely? you just want to see him, hear him, hold his hand, and just see his confused face when he doesn't know what you're talking about.
you two already went out on dates together at least 6 times, won't you just shoot your shot already? no. at this point, you're feeling like one of those people that say "what if he doesn't actually like me and just came with me just not to embarrass myself?" no. that can't be right?
thoughts races as long as you'd like to. assuming this or that but i'm pretty sure he got it all figured out with his feelings for you these past 6 dates-- i mean. 6 dates.
not to mention, you really loved when he tried to relax himself. catching a few glances of you here and there. was it really that cute.
no. you can't go up changing your thoughts with new ones of him thats-- weird.
you let the mattresses take you aside and consume yourself with the bed and just groan on over. taking your phone and opening it up with barely any stuff. one of your notifs was youtube suggesting "how to cook an egg" kind of tutorial.
reading back conversations you had with xiao. it feels like you're talking to him again just... not actively? there's that one feeling inside you that just lets the world aside and it's just you two, you two alone, entertaining each other, go all stupid. that felt like you were only the one he needs. you do respect him with other people as well but that sort of thought really sounds nice.
fuck. you felt like a teenager. it felt like inserting a literal sentence to your head saying "CRINGE LORD" with pretty much all capital letters, on a bold font with a bright red. but the thing is, he was talking to you. putting up with all of your nonsense. it made you feel dizzy.
you always thought that there was just random people, not just perfect just a normal and average kind of type. after breaking up with a certain person, you can just wait on for someone else to walk by and get asked out anyway. but this. this was different other any ordinary thought you thought of just like before.
it was him. no. for sure he was the one. that, HE could ever fill the dream aside to somewhat reality. instead of letting it aside and let them ask you out, it was just you. you were all left that's behind this and now... you're head over heels for him.
the bright light goes against your face. its ringing. fuck no, no... did you want to see him that bad? you should end the call you're just disturbing him--
fuck. he answered. the silence was going on and eventually asked you why are you calling him at 3am in the fucking morning. fuck this wasn't supposed to happen but. you wanted to get things out.
"what... are we?"
the question left to entertain him. yet continues with the sudden dull silence. fuck you sounded so stupid too. by the looks of his voice, he sounds stunned. did you say something wrong? panic rushes through yourself and you wished you haven't "accidentally" pressing the call button.
"i think you're... unique. i'm not saying i don't take in interest in you but, i do know is that i want to be with you. we aren't... what you say, official? but... i'd like for us to perhaps-- be. that."
holy shit. oh my god fuck. FUCK. okay. pull yourself together. the atmosphere felt so awkward. you ended up flushing your face deep down to the pillow. okay. proceed.
"hah... well. take me out in another 6 dates, then? as lovers of course! ah, shit, wait... no, no. do you even want to be labeled as lovers-- god i messed it up again."
"uhuh. another 6 dates. as 'lovers'."
the call ends and so is the night. you probably took time just to see what the fuck actually happened? is this finally the fantasy you ever seek for? you couldn't believe it. you had someone to love. YOU actually have someone to love now?!
