The uttering of his birth name had
not gone unnoticed. Mo Xuanyu
would not be so bold. . . But there
was certainly someone who would.

And yet, he didn’t choose to pull
the man in his arms up about it. His
beliefs were still steady, he would »

With his eyes stubbornly and tightly shut, he remains unaware of Lan Wangji’s actions. Neither does he have the capacity to wonder about the propriety of his own. He holds onto the other as though his second life depended on it; not because he truly cherishes it, but because —

creatures could be vicious, as a
cultivator, Wei Wuxian had dealt
with forces significantly worse. And

extreme. While he longed to ask,

Wuxian’s back as a sign he was safe,
unaware of what else he could do.

And while his face was made of
stone and didn’t betray his feelings,
there was a flutter in his chest
caused by their current close proximity.

Lan Wangji hadn’t anticipated what
would happen next. . . Finding himself
somewhat startled by the way Wei
Wuxian yelled out, he isn’t even given
a moment before he’s completely
obstructed by the other man clinging
to his upper body as though his life »

He continues to hum softly, visibly unconcerned as they reach said town. Having decided to go along for the time being, not even the thought of being seen in Lan Wangji’s arms is anything that can cause Wei Wuxian to feel truly self-conscious. His own reputation has been in —

approached, one glance etched in

Yet to learn of the others deep

“There is a town up ahead” Lan Wangji
promptly replied, glancing down
to the man in his arms who he
continued to carry with great ease.

Conveniently as he said that,

town came became close enough

For the first half of their trip, Wei Wuxian was mildly entertained by Lan Zhan’s stubborn, and his strength. Even if Mo Xuanyu has a frail and small body, he is still a whole man; one that Lan Wangji carries without effort over long stretches of land until night is about —

dark, we will need to find someplace
to rest.” Lan Wangji spoke plainly,
letting Wei Wuxian be aware of his
thoughts and change in direction.

Wei Wuxian finally giving in, Lan Wangji
began the journey back to Cloud

kept his route close to a town.

While his breath was steady, he »

“N-no!” He exclaims, although he isn’t quite sure why. Surely, one or the other doesn’t exactly matter. Both options are equally mortifying, and this way, he can still hide his face in absolute shame.

At least, he still recognises his same, old stubbornness, but for someone —

Lan Wangji had a secure hold of
the injured man in his arms and had
been ready to proceed.

There was the gentlest of creases

The request was mainly spoken in jest, or truly in a silly attempt to put some order in these baffling circumstances.
Lan Wangji must have sacrificed his own body. Another soul, bordering on genuine lunacy, outdoing even Mo Xuanyu’s, must be inhabiting him.

There is no —

He knows? What does the other know? Lan Wangji is still a man of few words, but they still hold the same ambiguity as before and Wei Wuxian can only worry. What does he know?

It isn’t entirely impossible that Lan Wangji has seen through him; his abilities are really that —
