Hanguang-Jun, you were just remembering something that already happened. It's not like you can help that! I already said I'm not upset. You don't have to apologize when you didn't do anything wrong.
[he doesn't expect him to go and meet it, and so he stops texting and keeps playing as he makes his way around the garden to roughly the spot Lan Wangji indicated]
[he's not hard to spot. he's kneeling on the very edge, much as he did earlier that day when he walked off on autopilot from their conversation; legs tucked under him, hands spread flat on his knees. his qin is with him, but off to the side; he is not playing now.
he's looking out at the open sky, where the two moons are currently visible and the bright hue of the cotton-candy clouds is dimmed by night to something almost normal.]

Outside.
You were distressed by what I spoke of.
You told me to stop. To forget it again.
Later, I walked away from you.
Inside.
Your counterpart has said it is unlikely I wronged you within my memory.
But it is uncertain.
And you were also distressed then.

[there is no way for him to even begin to get the full story about the memory via text so he simply does not touch on it]
no subject
All right.
[he doesn't say 'if that is what you wish.' he got yelled at about that already.]
no subject
there's a long pause, and then]
You're really not mad at me?

The edge of the island, as reached through the garden. I cannot be exact.

Hanguang-Jun, you're out so late at night! Aren't you tired?
