Pushing Daisies MDZS AU.. That's my small thought this morning. WN dies and WWX's touch brings him back to life, but they can never touch skin on skin again. Then, WWX's ability leaks out to Gusu. LWJ is a homicide detective and he uses WWX's touch to solve crimes etc etc etc

For an added drama, during one case LWJ gets killed. WWX revives him but then they can't kiss or hug which sucks bc LWJ has Feelings and WWX is unaware but we all know he feels the same. He's just... upset LWJ killed. Then they have to chase after a serial killer, the one who killed LWJ AND WN!

WWX just wants to go back to his life of cottagecore bliss, making jams and selling homemade crafts. The longer he's on the cases, the more tired and drawn he's becoming, resurrecting the dead even if just for their witness statements is draining him. LWJ worries, as does WN. For good reason.

victim he's met along the way. He says he'll stop when they catch the killer. That once he's solved this case, he'll ask to be removed as a consultant. WQ worries. Both her, WN and LWJ are very aware of WWX's changing body and behaviour. He pauses and seemingly listens to something no one else can

hear, but when confronted he simply shrugs it off. They're so close to discovering the killer's whereabouts, and potentially catching him before he can kill again. In the end, it's Xue Yang. Funded by the local governor who used him to get rid of anyone making his political career more difficult.

And XY just ran amok after. Killing whoever caught his eye. During the final confrontation, he kills LWJ again. When WWX touches him to bring him back, it rebounds oddly. LWJ is revived but can now touch WWX's skin without dying again... but WWX isn't looking well at all. He is visibly fading, yet
