And cheat death.

Of Dragons, Pandas, and Insanity.

 

Luhan, Sehun, Chen, 660 words.

Chen’s curled up in a corner, for once not prodding Baekhyun’s baby fats, or stealing Kyungsoo’s cookies, or carefully observing the way Kris slaughters the unicorns and teddy bears in his violent game. Nah, he’s just in the corner, being quiet, for once. Once every so often, a violent shudder wracks his small form and nearly throws him off the tiny balance he has on his .

 

Luhan observes the pathetic child from a safe distance, in case Chen blows up or explodes or something.

 

“Psst. Hey. Hey.” Luhan whispers out the corner of his mouth, both hands on the waist-high wall of various assorted boxes and toys to steady himself while he squats and peers out at the suffering kid not too far away. “Hey.” He elbows Sehun in the squishy side, successfully getting his very pouty attention.

 

“I think Chen-chen’s dying.” Luhan giggles almost sadistically, plopping back down onto his backside and rubbing his hands together. “This is gonna be so fun.”

 

“Yay.” Sehun replies flatly and proceeds to thoroughly ignore his crazy hyung. Lego bricks make much better friends, he decides in his head. In fact, anything would make a better friend than Luhan. Sehun purses his lips and snaps the final brick into place. Unicorns. Definitely unicorns.

 

“I’ll go over.” Luhan hisses just before Chen explodes into another paroxysm of wild sobbing and little coughs and hiccups.

 

“Oh yes.” Luhan chuckles and stealthily crawls over to the poor child.

 

Chen’s resting his chin between his knees, leaning his cheek against his right one so that he’s turning away from Luhan. His back shivers with erratic shudders that he can’t seem to control.

 

Luhan nearly chokes on his maniacal giggles but somehow manages to keep it low until he reaches the dying boy.

 

“Chen-chen what’s wrong?” He feigns concern (quite well, actually) and puts an arm around his little brother. It’s a bit tight, squeezed between Chen and the wall, and made even worse when Chen suddenly wails and attaches himself forcefully to the nearest human, Luhan.

 

“Gege!” Chen cries and just about chokes the older boy. “Gege, I’m dying!”

 

“Oh no! You poor thing!” Luhan gasps and latches back to Chen. “Poor soul.” He pats his head and sighs dramatically. “I’m the Doctor, here to make you better.”

 

Sehun judges from a safe distance, looking over Luhan’s abandoned post. His eyebrows furrow in confusion as both of them seem to have a mental breakdown in the corner. Absentmindedly, he paws the flimsy wall, contemplating the fact that if Chen dies, their twice-a-week chocolate cookie treat would go poof.

 

And Sehun loves his chocolate cookies.

 

“Hyung!” He yelps, suddenly rising from his post. Chen screams in shock because Sehun’s voice is honestly frighteningly screechy, especially when it comes out of nowhere. He falls over, tearing himself from Luhan, and rolls away shrieking, for good measure.


Except he forgets that the wall is right next to him, so he slams head first into it.

 

“Oh no.” Little Sehun whispers through slackened lips as he toddles over to the writhing boy. “Chen-chen you ok?” He reaches Chen and wriggles his toes at him. He feels like a god, standing tall over his hyungs and his eyes fold into happy cresents, despite Chen’s impending death. Luhan grabs his foot in mock disapproval and bites his ankle for fun.

 

Sehun giggles and falls over onto Chen, turning groaning and whining into laughter-infused sobbing as both Sehun and Luhan jab at Chen’s sides. The three of them become a wriggling mess of limbs and chubby torsos and no one cares anymore if they hit the wall a little too hard, or if someone jabs them a little off their ticklish spots.

 

“As a Doctor, I hereby give you ten minutes of tickles.” Luan gasps from under the pile. “Wait, no- you’re supposed to be tickled- no- stop- GAH!”

 

And as Chen’s finger accidentally enters someone’s nostril, he decides that dying can wait.

Chapter 23: it was very sweet of the kids to think of baking a cake for Xiu!!! while that could lead to absolute disaster since the kids don't know what they're doing, the dropped eggs just a start of it... at least, it's the thought that counts! HAHAHAHAHAHA

but lo and behold the real twist, it wasn't even Xiu's birthday yet! LMAO HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Chapter 9: CHEN OMFG! HAHAHAHAHAHA
this was so funny coz why is Chen such a spawn of the devil going yhe whole mile in being naughty just so Kris would have white hair! HAHAHAHA OMFG

and then it becomes a bigger issue coz turns out, as much as Chen is being naughty to give Kris white hair, Tao is doing his best to be a good boy to preserve Kris's black hair! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA KIDS!!! OH IF ONLY IT REALLY WORKS THAT WAY! HAHAHAHAHAHA

but in the end, when both Chen and Tao were sad coz they thought Kris was gone! oh all the guilt that must've been brewing in Chen's mind! HIHIHI don't you worry boys! Appa Kris loves you too much! HIHIHI
