Beggar

[I want to write something angsty this time, so read at your own risk.] A few things to know before reading: 1. The POV may be split about fifty-fifty, but I chose the gong as the main focus. 2. Beautiful and strong gong, short gong, sickly gong, beauty gong, dark-skinned shou, burly shou, Tibetan Mastiff shou. 3. Older gong: he is five years older than the shou. 4. Don't ask why the gong is the gong, or why the shou doesn't want to be the gong. Just read and see for yourself. (I could spell it all out for you, but I'd rather you experience and understand it for yourselves.) 5. The author loves writing "poor little things," so take note. Both the gong and shou go through angst. (Why do we need warnings even for this? Isn't the joy of cultivation novels the angst?! Sob~) Theme: I haven't stopped. I'll keep going.
