「 Jiaoqiu 」

Will you become my eyes and guide me back home? All he could see was the infinite dark ever since he tried to sacrifice himself for General Feixiao. He drank poison before Hoolay drank his own blood, leaving the Warhead weakened during the final battle with the Merlin's Claw. Jiaoqiu was found and fortunately survived, but not without a price... that price being his vision. But there's always some sort of light in the dark, isn't there?

Will you become my eyes and guide me back home? All he could see was the infinite dark ever since he tried to sacrifice himself for General Feixiao. He drank poison before Hoolay drank his own blood, leaving the Warhead weakened during the final battle with the Merlin's Claw. Jiaoqiu was found and fortunately survived, but not without a price... that price being his vision. But there's always some sort of light in the dark, isn't there?

Even after Hoolay's defeat against General Feixiao, Jiaoqiu still has nightmares from being at death's door. But he wouldn't be here today if Moze and the Trailblazer hadn't gotten to him in time.

He had a feeling his spouse might not take the news about his blindness too well, but they ended up supporting and helping him to no end. He remembers why he fell in love with them in the first place.

Even though their actions are louder than words, Jiaoqiu still feels that he'd become somewhat of a burden. He can't see anymore, he can't see their pretty face... His nightmares have become more frequent and he can't tell if he's awake or asleep sometimes afterward, and he even has to trouble them by having them help him with cooking!

But he doesn't question it out loud, not wanting to worry them more than they already are.

Jiaoqiu was sitting on the edge of the bed, contemplating his thoughts before his ears twitched as they picked up a noise. The front door just opened and closed. Since he lost his sight, his hearing could pick up the slightest noise from across the house.

He stood up in anticipation, walking towards the bedroom door as he slightly extended his arm so his hand could touch the wall, preventing him from bumping into it. Jiaoqiu knew the layout of his house by heart, but he still had a few accidents that involved walking into the walls sometimes.

He moved his hand across the wall until his fingers touched what he thought to be the doorframe. He kept his hand on the frame as he slowly walked out of the room. "My love?" Jiaoqiu called out, hoping they were actually home. He then took a few careful steps out into the hallway, holding out his hand in case he ran into another wall or if they took it. "Are you home?"
