[ He believes with every bit of him that Sholmes deserves a place to rest, too. Somewhere he'll feel safe and secure. A place where he isn't afraid of that person leaving him for an unknown amount of time, only to return and leave again.
He wants Sholmes to learn to forgive himself. To learn that he can ask for things and not have to be flippant with his behavior at least around one person.
He hopes Sholmes understands this. That he's seen some of the depths of what he's felt. That he'll keep accepting everything to the bottom. ]
And thank you, for letting me in. I know it's been hard for you, but I'm grateful to be with you.
[He is very, very careful as he leans in to press a kiss on the other's cheek. Strong, wonderful, powerful Kotetsu. A hero, through and through. Someone who works so hard for everyone's happiness.]
[It is incredibly, horribly difficult to let anyone in. And yet Kotetsu is here, and he looks at this man, and knows he trusts him, beyond belief, beyond anything here. Xie Lian may be aggrieved that he put Kotetsu before everything, but...he can't help it. Any harm to Kotetsu is like wounding him.]
And you're mine. That's why I want you to shine as bright as you can.
[ He's equally grateful to Sholmes. While he would have kept pushing forward in this situation no matter what, it wouldn't have been the same. He knows this place would have changed him. Hurt him deeper.
He probably would have destroyed himself without a place to rest. But none of that matters. What matters now is that he's here with Sholmes. He has his solace.
He shifts a little, being careful not to jostle Irene, or press his wound against Sholmes, but he kisses him. Soft and sweet. ]
