Someone asked for a kung fu panda au right

Bonus written thing under the cut

“You were all right before,” Ling rasps, clenching his eyes shut—blank scroll a death-grip in his fist. “I’m not… I’m not fit for this role. I barely knew what I was doing before. And now…”

He turns to his friends—Ed at the front of them, watching him with a sympathy Ling almost wants to laugh at. Of all the times for Ed to lose his anger at him… Ling deserves it most now. He rises staggeringly to his feet, and Ed furrows his brow as the scroll is pressed into his hand.

“You were right,” Ling repeats softly to him. “I’m no dragon warrior. But you are. You should be. Take it.”

There’s a heart-stopping moment where Ed only stares at Ling. Just as he finally starts to accept the scroll, and that weak, imposter part of Ling cries for the loss—

“Yeah, I’m not doing that.”

He’s struck face-first with chaste lips to his own.

Ling’s heart screeches to a halt and kick-starts all in one. He’s barely picked one to stick with before Ed’s already pulling away.

His breath catches at the set expression brightening that gaze.

“There’s only one dragon warrior, dumbass, and you were the one chosen for a reason. Come on, don’t make me recite all that destiny bullshit. You know I hate it.”

Ling can only blink at Ed for a moment, his face burning too warm to allow room for though quite yet. Ed smiles at the laughable sight he must make, then.

He places the scroll back in Ling’s hand, and holds his grip there.

“You told me once that you'd prove me wrong,” he says. “So do that. I'm waiting.”
