♡ Zhan's Room

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] (my turn for a late reply otl sowwy)

Yibo couldnt help but furrow his eyebrows in concern for Zhan, he’d been crying so much, his eyes were red. But the concern morphed into a bright smile as the bunny laughed.“I would totally make lame thing 1 and thing 2 jokes if i had ever twins” Yibo let out a laugh.

“So eager to get rid of me?” He says with a pout, as the time is mentioned. Yibo wasnt ready to leave yet, “Theres only 20 or so minutes of the movie.” Yibo pulls the bunny back into his arms and nuzzles into the crook of his neck, breathing in deeply , he noticed Zhan smelled like good, like a nice homecooked meal after a long day of work...home, “I’ll leave after?” his voice muffled

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ () Sorry for the late reply! ♡

A sad frown is settled on Zhan's lips at the fact Tom is gone. Lightly pushing his shoulder against Yibo's at him saying his fate so casually. "But- he was my favorite. He shouldn't have been killed." He says and wipes at his tender eyes. He'll definitely have to put on a cold compress later. There's a snort from him before he's laughing at Yibo's joke. "Thing 1 and Thing 2?" Zhan asks and settles heavily against Yibo as the movie plays. As he watches, he yawns and lightly nuzzles against the other's shirt. Which is now wrinkled. He looks at the clock and makes a surprised noise. "It's so late! When did it get so late?" They do say time flies when you're having fun and Yibo was fun. "You probably need to go, Yibo. You work." Zhan says as he sits up, lightly patting the younger's chest.

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] Yibo's breath hitches a little when Zhan says his name, even though it was a name he'd heard all his life, it'd never sounded better to him than on Zhan's lips. Shaking himself out of his daze he whispers, "To be honest, I think that was a better death than a lot of the other characters. But yea, that was the end of Tom" He pauses before changing the subject "Yea, naming the kids Boy and Girl is kind of weird.. imagine if the kids were 2 girls? Girl One and Girl Two?" Yibo laughs a little at the idea. Yibo watches as Malorie and the kids make their way down the river, and their boat flips. They're almost at the end, meaning the movie was almost over, THe clock in the corner told Yibo it was almost 2am. Although he knew he would regret staying up this late tomorrow, he almost didn't want to leave.

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ Sniffling and wiping at his cheeks with a blanket. Zhan couldn't help but blush at Yibo calling him cute. Lightly squeezing the human's hand since he felt overwhelmed with the urge to just bask in the attention and then some. His tail twitched at the sight of Malorie and Tom on the screen. The refreshing change of pace. Even though it was weird to name their children Boy and Girl. "They.. they keep those names?" Zhan frowned and let his fingers gently running over Yibo's arm. Of course he could feel the rumbling of the human's chest but couldn't pick up what was said. Though, Zhan didn't complain about being pressed up against the other's body. Instead watching as the small family heard about some compound. That didn't sit well. Not long they all were in a different house; those unstable people following soon after. "Uh— wait! No. Yibo, what is Tom doing?" Zhan asked, not looking away from the screen. If he were Malorie, he would feel the same way. How could you leave someone their loved one like that? His heart ached with empathy over Malorie's broken voice. Trembling hands gripping the dog tags. Zhan could already feel the tears welling up. "T-Tom survives right?"

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] "would you like it better if i was mean to you?" yibo asked rhetorically with a light chuckle "hmm, no even if I tried i could never do it. you're way too cute" Yibo squishes Zhan gently before letting go again, watching as the movie progressed. He watched as Tom and Malorie hopped between houses, and despite the tragedy of the situation, he wondered what it would be like to have a family of his own, people to care about, and a reason to come home at the end of the day. "Here we go" he mutters as Rick's message can be heard over the radio, knowing exactly what was coming next, he made sure the hybid was secure in his arms

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ Zhan sniffles a bit pathetically and pouts at the turn of events. Even if his stomach flipped at the term 'my' being used in such a soft tone. The movie was suppose to be a thriller movie; not making him cry in front of Yibo. He is more than happy to accept the affection that was being poured over him. "Tom?" When they lock eyes, his own are wet and worried. Did something happen to Tom? Hopefully not. A thought crossed his mind on why he was so emotional. Zhan then sighed in utter annoyance at his own stupidity. His heat was in a couple days. If it were on schedule. "You're too nice to me. Stop being so nice." Zhan mumbled even if he leaned against Yibo more, watching the screen as the movie progressed into something better.

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] "oh, my baby" Yibo pulls the crying mess of the hybrid into his arms "its okay" he coos rocking back and forth gently. He'd never seen anyone react like this to a movie, and didn't really know what to do but chuckle slightly at the hybrids side commentary. However he hated seeing Zhan crying like this. "I think you'll like the ending though.. we're halfway there" He whispers comfortingly, placing soft kisses against Zhan's temple, making sure he wasn't obstructing his view of the tv. Seeing Tom and Malorie on screen, Yibo couldn't help but note that that was a relationship he admired. Despite the fact that Tom dies eventually, "Tom-" He starts, before stoping himself, should he spoil Tom's death? he knew either way it would upset that hybrid in his arms, but it such a major point in the film. He decided against it, it was coming up soon anyways. "Nevermind" He whispers, placing a kiss at the top of the hybrids head before turning his attention back to the movie.

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ There was a quiet that settled over them was tense. Zhan frowned as Olympia and Malorie had started. His ears twitched and his expression was pensive. It was hitting closer to home as well considering that he had strong instincts to take care of others. Then it cut to Gary who was pulling out papers. It made the hybrid shudder. It all started to kick off. Tom going down and Douglas screaming in the garage. "What- what is he doing!? I knew he was a bad guy!" Zhan shouted towards the screen, hand immediately finding Yibo's to squeeze it. It only got worse from there and by the end of it, a steady stream of tears and pitiful sounds were coming from Zhan. "Th-This movie ." It was a complete lie but he was just upset almost everyone died. The soothing balm of the hurt was Tom and Malorie. Ah, seeing this type of relationship was why his heart was already melting over Yibo. Who has been so kind and affectionate to him since he stepped foot into the room.

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] Sitting back at his original spot, he placed his hand in the hybrids lap, making it easier for the hybrid to grasp it if he needed. Not a second later, his had is in the hybrids grip, Yibo had to stifle a chuckle at this, but for the first time in the night, turned his full attention to the movie. "Oh no" He muttered under his breath, remembering what was coming up. He turned himself to face the hybrid, worried the slaughter would scare Zhan. Faintly, the voice in the back of him mind told him to be careful of vulnerable he was leaving himself to Zhan, but the same voice told him that it was likely vice versa as well. The logical side of him began calculating the pros and cons, the emotional side of him was more than ecstatic to finally have company in life. While his obsessive inner monologue was happening, he didn't notice that malorie and olympia were going into labor.

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ Zhan couldn't help laugh, eyes watching Yibo for a moment and eyes trailing over the squished lips as well. Pouty.. He blinked at the question and nodded quickly. "Yes! I want to finish it." With some wiggling around, he is able to grab the remote and backs it up to the start of where he doesn't really recognize. The bunny moves so he can watch the movie comfortable. Waiting for the Yibo to move until he's comfortable. "Pressing start." They watch for a while and he frowns when Olympia let's someone in. "I don't trust him." The hybrid immediately says and he can feel his fur puffing up as he watches the man in the suit. Zhan's hand going out to grip at the human next to him.

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] A muffles chuckle escapes through Yibo’s squished cheeks “No heart attacks allowed. I cant remember anything from my cpr class” with both hands, he holds Zhans hands against his cheeks for a moment before sliding them down and holding them in his lap “Werent we watching a movie?” Yibo turns to eye the abandoned tv “Shall we finish it up?”

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ "I need to melt away now. Xiao Zhan is unavailable." Zhan said with a quiet tone. It was overly hot in the room now and Yibo's light kisses were not helping. A small whine bubbled up from his mouth at the overwhelming flood of emotions. Then he was blinking at Yibo while they made eye contact. Only to promptly try and roll away again. Heart pounding in his chest. The voice that reminded him not to get so attached to the warm feeling or the human himself. "I– aiyo, you're going to give me a heart attack, Bo-di." Zhan said and rolled back towards Yibo. Hands going to squish at his cheeks in retaliation.

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] Yibo’s face was lit up like christmas day, he hadnt felt this relaxed, and Zhan just made him happy in a way he hasnt felt before. He laughter filled the room, as Zhan sank into the pillows “Noooo....Come back” He says grabbing the bunny’s hand “You dont have to apologize” giving little kisses to each knuckle then moving to lay next to him, the pillow mountain sank in a way that pushed him closer together, gently he pushed the bunny’s other hand away, caressing the sides of his cheek softly “you can call me whatever you want..” he said muttered, a sweet smile permanently etched on his face “My cute bunny”

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ Zhan snorted at the cheeky response and lightly nudged at Yibo's shoulder. "Still a waste of money." He said lightly and reached for a chocolate bar that was on the bed. Yet, he froze at the question and immediately blushed. "Oh— I can't believe I did–" Hiding behind his hands and then moving to get off the bed. "I'll leave now. Excuse me." Zhan wanted to disappear from embarrassment, slumping back against the mountain of pillows. He peeked at Yibo from behind his hands. "I'm sorry, I- hggghhmpff." What was he suppose to say?! He just called Yibo his without even realizing.

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] “I assure you, its usually a snooze fest.” Yibo replied to the bunny “But the plus side is I make enough money to spend on whatever, or in this case whoever I want” Yibo was certain at this point, Xiao Zhan deserved the world, and Yibo in would do everything in his power to give him everything he wants. This train of thought was abruptly interrupted, Yibo wondered if he heard right, not that he was complaining, but, /my/? “My?” he teases “Am I yours already?” He takes his phone back. Admiring the selfie, adorable.

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ A light laugh escaped Zhan as Yibo finished explaining his career. "It sounds very interesting! I know I couldn't do it." He reassured the other with a smile. Then pouting slightly at how Yibo pushed away his comment. "I just don't want you to spend so much money on me." Maybe he could use cuteness to get his way. It was more and more obvious as the seconds passed that Yibo was someone who Zhan wanted to be as close as possible to him. Drawn to him like a magnet. The hybrid sighed in relief and patted his chest to calm down his thumping heart. "I was so worried about how young were. Last thing I would want is to take advantage of my Didi." Zhan replied absentmindedly before taking the phone and adding in his contact info. Even taking a selfie for the photo part. It never registered to him that he used the term my without an issue. "There! Now you can text me whenever."

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] “it’s copyright, trademarks, patents” Yibo tried to explain in a way that wasnt completely boring “its a sector of law that gives people and businesses the property rights to the information and intellectual good they create...i swear its not as boring as it sounds” Yibo couldnt help but laugh at himself at that last part “actually no, it’s actually quite boring, but very lucrative”
Seeing Zhan’s eyes light up at the sight of food, Yibo realized how happy it made him. In such a short about of time since meeting the bunny, he wanted to give him the world. “Well, good thing you didnt ask” Yibo says with boyish grin plastered on his face “I did.” Yibo grabbed his phone again, as he changes the screen to the add contact screen he says “I’m turned 27 in august,” so that makes Zhan a year older than him. Handing the phone back to Zhan “Add your number? That way you have my contact info too”

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ Zhan frowned just slightly when Yibo told him what he did for a living. Yet nodded along to what was being said. "What is an Intelligent Properties Lawyer?" He felt dumb asking but it was really the first time he'd heard of that career choice.

When handed the phone, the hybrid's eyes lit up with excitement. "Whoa! That looks delicious..." He tapped around on the screen. Then frowned when looking at some of the comments. "Some of these people say it's expensive since it's more authentic compared to most. I couldn't ask you to spend that much money on me." Zhan was looking closer at Yibo's features. Was the hybrid actually older than him? "I actually have to ask first, then your contacted for confirmation." He continued to stare over Yibo's face and felt his face getting gradually hotter. "How old are you?" He asked suddenly, only to blush and laugh awkwardly. "I-I mean if you want to tell me. I'm 28 and I would hate to–" Be percieved as a . Was what Zhan wanted to say but instead shook his head. "Never mind, you don't need to answer that."

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] “Oh, right.. heh. I’m an Intelligent Properties lawyer.” Yibo replies, not knowing how much Zhan knew about his industry he added “I’ve been promoted to Partner, which means i oversee my own team of associates. And they’re not always the most diligent in their work. Which i get, I was the same way”. The warm smile on Zhan’s face gave yibo a distinctive home feeling. If the world was crashing down around them, he wouldnt notice, or care.
“Hmmm, Hotpot sounds good? Theres a new place in the city thats got pretty good reviews,” He pauses to pull up some pictures from the restaurant’s instagram “what do you think” then nodding at the bunny’s next remark “okay, i will figure out how to do that..”

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ It felt nice to just be pulled into someone's arms again. Zhan decided that he really enjoyed being around Yibo. The man was extremely handsome, bold, and seemed very kind. He hummed a little before shaking his head. "Work can be difficult and besides, you've been a teddy bear this entire time." He teased lightly, moving to look at Yibo's face properly with a warm smile on his own. Hearing? "What do you do for a living?" Zhan gently poked the soft cheek. Then thought over what they could eat. "I actually haven't eaten out here. I do like Japanese food, American, and I have been craving Hotpot lately." He counted on his fingers briefly and then nodding. "Oh! You actually have to ask to take me out. Since.. I'm not owned yet and you're a human. Just part of the rules." One of his hands lightly brushed over the scarred part of his ear. Zhan shook his head at the thought, not wanting to deal with an anxiety attack.

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] One look at Zhan's smile and all of Yibo's previous anger from his phone call disappeared. He allowed himself to be led back to the bed. “I don’t want to talk about work, But I’m really sorry about that though” He apologizes said climbing back into the bed next to the bunny, shifting so he had the bunny back in his embrace with Yibo chin rested on his shoulder again. “I cant imagine that’s a very good way to introduce myself the first time we’ve ever met.” Yibo’s face is flushed with embarrassment.
Changing the subject. “So,I have a hearing tomorrow in the morning, it shouldn’t go too long, I’ll come pick you up after? Say 7pm?” Yibo asks hopefully “Is there anything you would like to have?”

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ Zhan glances at the screen briefly and then he's showing the other a dazzling smile. Pure excitement radiating off of him in waves. There's something about Yibo that truly makes the hybrid more excited to spend time with him. Less worried about the possibility of being harmed again. "I'd love to! Wher-" He stops abruptly when Yibo curses and frowns. Something was obviously wrong. Was he being to eager in agreeing to this? His train of thought is cut short at the kiss on the forehead. All Zhan can do is nod slightly and blush all the down his neck, a pleased smile on his face as he briefly pressed his hands over it. Yet with most hybrids– especially bunnies –his hearing was extremely sensitive. Floppy ears twitching as they heard the anger in Yibo's voice. It was vaguely reminiscent to his past owner and his work. Much too stressful in the later days.

That definitely worried Zhan. He had paused the movie and frowned at some unfamiliar guy on the screen. "Oh," His attention back to Yibo and he smiled gently, sliding off the bed with practiced ease. "I've heard a similar tone before. Come sit." Zhan says and walks over to grab the other's hand. He notes quietly that he has about an inch or two on Yibo and it makes the human more attractive in his own eyes. "You can tell me about it if you'd like? I'll be happy to listen." He lightly jokes and gestures to the bunny ears that hang past to his shoulders. Settling back on the bed, he makes sure there's room for Yibo to follow.

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] “Fine” Yibo pouts cutely, then adds with a huff “I don’t have to come save you then.” He hugs the bunny tightly, resting his chin on Zhan’s shoulder “But I think the apocalypse would be more bearable with your company” His hands dropped into his lap as Zhan sat up abruptly, his eyes widened in shock and worry, thinking he’d done something to upset the bunny. But the bunny’s sweet smile immediately dispelled those thoughts. But his was the next words that made his heart skip a beat. “I would love that” he said without hesitation, after a pause he adds “Maybe we can go for dinner…tomorrow night?” He pulls out him for the first time since he’d arrived, intending to check his calendar, then he saw his notification; 23 missed calls, 40 emails, all from his associate. “” he mutters, before climbing out of bed, “I’m so sorry, hold that thought” He placed a gentle kiss on the bunny’s forehead before walking toward other end of the room. As soon as the other line picked up, his gaze darkened in fury. In the back of his mind, he hoped this wouldn’t scare the bunny. But he gradually got more and more furious as the conversation when on. “If you cant figure this out by the time I get into the office tomorrow. Don’t bother coming back.” He hissed with a controlled anger before hanging up and turning back to Zhan, immediately his gaze softened “Sorry, I- uh” he began to explain, but he didn’t know how

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ "Aiyo.." Zhan mumbles before pouting towards Yibo. A heavy blush covers his cheeks at how blunt the man is. Is this normal for him? Body slightly bumping against the human. "Going on a dangerous mission to save some bunny you don't even know? You're too bold." He says and gently pokes the chubby cheek of Yibo's. Adorable.

The smile that Yibo sports only makes Zhan smile in return. There's something about him that makes the hybrid feel excited and comfortable. Sitting up fully and looking towards Yibo. He blinks in surprise at the statement and softly he's making a cooing noise at seeing the blush. Then he's smiling shyly and laughing quietly. "I'm really happy you came today too." Zhan says honestly and fidgets with the pillow on his lap. There's a rush of confidence that goes through him. "I was hoping that, maybe, you would visit me more often after all this?"

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] “It would be worth it” Yibo replies without hesitation. “plus it would be likely i’d die eventually anyways, it might as well make it worthwhile” if i can save someone i care about, all the better. he didnt say out loud.

Luckily the thought was pushed to the back of yibo’s mind at Zhan’s next words. “its so nice to finally meet someone from home” he couldn’t help but smile brightly “i’m really happy i came today” he adds without thinking, when he caught himself it was too late, he cheeks blushed bright red “i...uh.. sorry...i meant” he tried to explain himself to no avail.

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ Yibo's matter of fact tone and statement makes Zhan pause for a moment before becoming overly flustered. He lightly bumps the other's shoulder. Yet he doesn't say anything, too busy taking in the movie. After a moment the hybrid finally speaks. "You don't even know if you can trust me yet. Why would you risk your safety like that, hm?" He asks with a teasing tone. With wide eyes; he's looking over at Yibo with utter amazement. Feeling a tightness in his chest release at hearing the familiar language be returned. Who knew someone could be so homesick without realizing it. Comfort covers him instantly and a part of him worries about getting too use to the feeling.

"They didn't have to kill him." Zhan pouts for a moment and glances briefly at the screen. "I'm from China but moved here for, uhm, personal reasons. Then I ended up here at the shop." It feels nice to talk to another person like this. Not getting mixed up with words or thinking about how to form a sentence if he gets too distracted. He can feel his bunny tail moving with how happy he is at the situation. Really feeling the urge to flop over for a moment. Instead, he closes up the chip bag and brushes off his hands. Pulling a different pillow close to his face to nuzzle in it. Trying to expel the sudden burst of energy.

@Xiao Zhan ˡᵒᵖ ᵇᵘⁿⁿʸ [SH] “well, then i would come find you. there would be no point in surviving if i have to live in a desolate planet alone” Yibo replies matter of factly. Yibo finally turns his attention toward the movie to not miss his favorite scene, the grocery store scene.
“thanks” he says before popping a couple chips in his mouth. “imagine how cool it would be to loot the grocery store during the apocalypse. just free reign of absolutely everything” he’d often thought about what he would take and where he would go if something like this ever happened in real life. Hearing Zhan’s ramble he was shocked at the sudden sound of his mother tongue, something he hadnt heard much since his move to korea. This made yibo laugh lightly “They had to kill him to advance the plot” he replies back in chinese. “I didnt know you spoke chinese”

@Wang Yibo ʰᵘᵐᵃⁿ () pft. It happens! No worries (♡´艸`)
