...

Are you unhappy, that we transferred?

[weiyingdown]

We made a bet and this is how it ended up. There's nothing to be unhappy about. I picked this just as much as you did.

[one_note]

[looks at him quietly; that wasn't exactly a yes or a no...]

[weiyingdown]

[tugs on his hair]

You asked me this question before and my answer was no. It's still the same. That's not really going to change no matter how many times you ask.

[one_note]

Would like you to be happy. You have not been.

[simple, soft. it wasn't a trick question. he turns his eyes back to the garden paths they're walking through.]

I am unsure how to advise. She interacts with us differently.

[weiyingdown]

I'm fine. And I'll think of a way to deal with it. You don't have to worry.

[one_note]

[there's a soft, palpable hesitation, like he wants to say more but isn't sure Wei Wuxian will want to hear it]

[weiyingdown]

[he does play with his hair absently before noticing the silence. takes the ends of his hair and tickles Lan Wangji's chin with it]

I promise not to get mad, so speak your mind freely Hanguang-Jun.

[one_note]

If you are not bothered by provocative actions. Then she may stop using them.

[this is a lesson he's learned from dealing with Wei Wuxian.]

[weiyingdown]

I was thinking of just pretending she's air and ignoring her completely.

[one_note]

[it's not exactly what he meant, but what works for him may not work for others, either. he's genuinely unruffled by a lot of what Mora does, or able to make his own peace with it. he gets the feeling that an obvious pretense of the same would just invite more prodding.

lets out a quiet sigh at the tail end of that train of thought and Wei Wuxian's answer, not pleased about it but recognizing that he can't always actually stop people metaphorically slapfighting if they're set on that course of action]

Perhaps.

[weiyingdown]

Only perhaps? And here I thought it was a good idea. It's sure to bother her.

[considers his words a little more carefully. it's impossible for him to not have some kind of reaction if she says something he wants to refute, and there are definitely a few too many of those items]

Does she not say anything that bothers you?

[one_note]

[he's quiet for a while, weighing if he wants to say this]

She reminds me of you.

[weiyingdown]

[reflexively makes the most disgusted face]

Hanguang-Jun, do you really think that badly of me?

[there's some teasing in it, a sign that he isn't as offended as he might have been before they talked]

[one_note]

[shakes his head, and tucks a lock of Wei Wuxian's hair behind his ear]

Enjoys attention. Exists the way she wishes to exist. Often shameless.

[weiyingdown]

Controlling and possessive. Enjoys getting stabbed. Has no remorse for her actions. Would apparently prefer to drug me rather than ask a simple question.

[one_note]

[tips his head a little; yeah, true]

Many flaws. Many bad habits. Does not always think like a human.

Still. Not unwilling to be honest. Nor to listen to reason.

[weiyingdown]

[wearing a smile that doesn't quite reach his eyes]

Then I'll leave you to listen to her honesty and reason with her, since you're interested in that.

[one_note]

[touches the corner of it]

Do you wish me to, on your behalf?

[it's a genuine question. of course it is.]

[weiyingdown]

[frowns at the thought. he's sure that Lan Wangji would have a very sincere conversation with her and she would listen to the whole thing, and then promptly ignore everything he said except when she wanted to harass a Wei Wuxian about it. his entire body language screams no thank you]

No. It's all some bizarre game to her and she's just decided we're all playing by her rules or something, I don't even know what she's talking about when she goes off like that. It's better to not get involved at all.

[one_note]

[he doesn't push it. but, mildly]

It is like speaking to the dead.

[weiyingdown]

The dead are easier to understand and deal with.

[one_note]

[shakes his head a little; Wei Wuxian hadn't let him get to the point]

Negotiating desires. Sometimes ones that have passed into the inhuman.

[weiyingdown]

And what do we do if desires can't be negotiated~? I forget. Please instruct me, Hanguang-Jun.

[the almost-teasing in his voice makes it clear that he has not, in fact, forgotten.]

[one_note]

[cups his cheek, something a little sad in his eyes; not teasing at all]

We are not there yet.
