[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.

[weiyingdown]

[leans into the touch, tension loosening from his shoulders]

For some reason I'm not in the mood to give her any of her desires. What do we do then?

[one_note]

If you ignore her and she herself attempts to negotiate, will you reject it?

[weiyingdown]

I don't know. It depends on the details of what she wants to negotiate.

[one_note]

Then that may be your best course of action. If you are set on this.

[weiyingdown]

Set on this? Hanguang-Jun, don't make it sound like I'm the one who started this. You'll hurt my feelings.

[one_note]

[gently, finally finding a gazebo and settling them on the bench inside]

I am not.

You are choosing your course of action.

[weiyingdown]

Do you disapprove?

[curious, as he sprawls his legs out and makes no attempt to remove himself from Lan Wangji's lap]

[one_note]

I prefer harmony.

[adjusts himself easily to be a Wei Wuxian chair]

But discouraging conflict can lead to greater resentments.

[weiyingdown]

[settles himself so that he can stoke Lan Wangji's hair, fingers carding through it in a steady rhythm]

Er-gege, I would be delighted to let you handle everything if I was confident that it would lead to harmony. But she's always going to stir up trouble, so no need to waste your time.

[one_note]

I live there also.

[weiyingdown]

Is she bothering you?

[one_note]

[shakes his head]

Responsibility to help, if I am able.

[weiyingdown]

You already help too much. If it's my problem, I can handle it. You should take it easy.

[one_note]

I will.

[...

daring]

But if you feel you need it, will you ask?

[weiyingdown]

So persistent! Yes, yes, I will. If it's something I can't resolve on my own, I'll ask for your assistance.

[one_note]

[nods, and also relaxes, subtly; Wei Wuxian only feels it because they're pressed close together.]

[weiyingdown]

[continues petting his hair, much like he did the day when they took turns napping in each other's laps]

You're too considerate of others. Really, you should do whatever you want.

[one_note]

[bows his head into it, feeling unaccountably starved for the gentle contact]

I am doing what I want.

[weiyingdown]

Is that so? You only ever seem to want to do things for others.

[one_note]

...

To see you happy.

I like it.
