ok but imagine you& #39;re xiao xingchen - impossible ik bc he& #39;s an actual angel and us mere mortals dare not dream but that& #39;s irrelevant - and imagine your best friend losing his home and becoming blind and loving him So Much u break a rule just to give him your eyes so he can see
even when he scorns you and blames you and spouts all these cutting words u don& #39;t care bc he& #39;s angry and u understand and he leaves and u respect his wishes and don& #39;t follow and in that moment u kind of lose everything and your world is now drastically different but It& #39;s Fine
then you wander alone and blind for what?? 13 years?? relearning a Lot by yourself?? then finding this lil pickpocket girl who is definitely Not actually blind but she looks up at u and trusts u immediately and u still have so much love and can& #39;t help but take her under your wing
and u are a healer by heart and u cant refuse the wounded so when u sense this man on the brink of death u take him to your shelter and take care of him till he wakes but he doesnt give a name and thats fine it doesnt matter and u fully expect him to leave when he& #39;s healed anyway
but then he stays. and stays. and helps. and he& #39;s all cutting jokes and laughter and strange kindness and repressed grief and he makes u laugh So Much and he jokes about your blindness but never let& #39;s anyone take advantage of it
and he guides u on hunts and does the shopping so u don& #39;t need to and u leave him candy whenever u can bc u just Know that the story is about him and somewhere along the way u realize this leaking damaged coffin house became a home and u miss your friend at times but,,u have them
THEN EVERYTHING GETS VIOLENTLY RIPPED AWAY AND U REALIZE IT WAS A LIE AND THE ONE PERSON THAT KEPT PEOPLE FROM TRICKING U TOOK ADVANTAGE OF YOUR BLINDNESS THE MOST AND YOU& #39;RE HORRIFIED AND ANGRY but at yourself bc u should& #39;ve been more careful bc u shouldn& #39;t have trusted so easi-
AND U TRY TO THINK BACK ON THOSE 3 YEARS TOGETHER AND HOW MUCH OF IT WAS A LIE AND HOW LONG DID HE USE U AND DID U EVER KNOW HIM AT ALL AND THEN U FIND OUT U KILLED THE BEST FRIEND U THOUGHT U LOST YEARS AGO AND NOW ALL U HEAR IS THE RUSH OF YOUR OWN GUILT AND ANGER AND GRIEF
