Pac-Man Style.

Seeing his wife manipulate the escapee and reincarnation of Nadine, much like Ying Yue, to return, Tian Xing stopped her. "Stop. I don't want those who've already been given a new life to suffer the same pain as you, my melody."

Knowing this was her husband, Tian Xing, in his lighter state, capable of receiving all kinds of reprimands depending on the benefit to his character, Margarita was the one to retort, instead of leaving it to junior sister Cammy. "No. They became a part of me the moment they entered this house. No matter how beautiful their life is now, making them unwilling to deal with your sickness, I still want them to fuse with me since they're just cowards with no resolve to face your illness, my symphony. So no, they must become part of me, no matter what it takes."

Seeing his wife now truly able to talk back to him, unlike before when it was only about Tao matters that she showed such resolve, Tian Xing sighed and rubbed his chin, thinking of a solution to satisfy both their Yang Light Desire and Yin Dark Desire. He didn't want his lovers, who were entangled with him, to suffer any longer, simply because he didn't want his wife to endure more suffering just to experience his true demon state, especially when he was struggling to hold himself back upon seeing other melodies like Ying Yue, with her hourglass body and lazy, seductive eyes.

After rubbing his chin for some time while walking towards their workshop part of the house, Tian Xing finally spoke. "Alright then. My wife can fuse with them, but only after I've spoken to them personally using Tian Ming Dao. If they still refuse to enter into this relationship, then my melody can do as she pleases. Does this satisfy my wife's Yin Dark Desire?"

Stunned to realize she still had Yin Dark Desire, Margarita and her trillions of sisters simultaneously recognized that she, too, had a sickness similar to her husband's—wanting to dominate others through sheer physical and mental strength, just as her husband had his own devilish sickness of manipulation. Together, they sighed and spoke in unison, "I didn't realize that, aside from my husband's sickness of becoming a devil, I also have the sickness of being a demon who seeks to dominate others."

Pulling her close and kissing her head, Tian Xing nodded. "As long as my wife understands that, I'm relieved. Let me talk to them first to bring them back, since I, too, don't want them to become unfaithful and seek comfort elsewhere. For the sake of both my light desire, which aims for what's best for them, and my dark desire, which aims for what's best for me, I'll have a conversation and spend time with them before you decide what you want to do."

Standing by her husband, Cammy, the best friend of Chun Li, said, "Thank you, husband, for this revelation. Without your insight, I might have continued wanting all the junior sisters to receive the same treatment as me. Because of that, I've decided to talk to them one by one as well, and spend time with them to persuade them that it's worth entering this marriage once again."

Tian Xing nodded, pulling her closer, kissing the top of her head. "This is why I tried to stop you from hurting yourself in the first place."

Rolling her eyes, Ada Wong, from the fate world of Resident Evil, said, "Yes, yes, husband is right this time." She paused, then walked closer and hugged him. "Thank you, my symphony, for this small act of love. Please continue; it makes my heart bloom. Look, some of the sisters are already fainting from your change in nature."

Tian Xing glanced to his right, where Ashley Graham, from the same fate world as Ada, had already fainted from swooning. Many other sisters with fragile hearts were similarly affected, their cheeks flushing red. Rubbing Ada's nose with his own, side to side, like Sonic the Hedgehog to tickle her, Tian Xing teasingly asked his wife, "Does my wife enjoy this kind of Yang Light Desire affection?"

Illyana Rasputina, supported by elder sister Margarita who looked at her amusingly, said to her husband, "Yes, yes. I like it."

Looking around at the fifty people in the workshop, all of whom had stopped to hold onto whatever they could to endure the feeling of genuine affection, Tian Xing suddenly remembered what his wife Emma Frost had said. Shaking his head, he said, "Remembering what you said about my beast mode, which doesn't care about you at all, I think you're right, my wife. For the foreseeable future, it's best for me not to engage in any love-making sessions, as I might revert to my old mistake of seeing you merely as a possession. That's something I want to avoid, not just for myself, but for you too, my melody."

Brigitte Lindholm, from the fate world of Overwatch, who was currently on the floor and struggling to stand, called out, wanting to receive more of these Yin Light Desire advances. "J-just a little bit, please. S-small advances are okay."

Tian Xing nodded, pulling Margarita into his right embrace and Ada Wong into his left. He whispered to them, "Alright then, my sweet melodies. I'll fulfill your Yin Light Desires, just a little. Hold tight, it might get messy."

As he walked toward the workshop, seeing all of his melodies eagerly watching him, Tian Xing chuckled and tickled and nibbled both Margarita's and Ada's ears. Observing his wife, who was doing her best to spread this contagious, virus-like affection to others and eager to delegate the task, Tian Xing tightened his grip on Ada Wong's waist and playfully bit her left cheek, tickling her as he worked on the schematic for the floating island.

Thud.

Margarita fainted from swooning, her head hitting the table. Tian Xing chuckled, knowing his wife had never experienced such affection before. Adjusting her posture so she stood straight again, he continued his playful antics, using a Pac-Man style of biting and nose-rubbing, like Sonic the Hedgehog, with Margarita. He finished with lip trills along her neck, which caused 70% of their sisters to faint as well.

Shaking his head with amusement, Tian Xing returned to work on the schematic, finishing his playful antics that had caused their bodies to twitch intermittently. Now, accompanied only by his wife, Letty Ortiz from the Fate world of Fast and Furious—one of the leaders of the artisan practitioners—who found it challenging to stay focused on creating the construction for the floating island, due to the lingering effects of the amplified affection that many of them had received simultaneously, Tian Xing chuckled as he watched his wife do her best to avoid looking at him, probably afraid she might faint as well.
