As close as they are, Lan Wangji’s voice is almost a whisper, his breath ghosting over the first thin layer of the bandage. Dumbly, Wei Wuxian wonders if Lan Wangji would blow on the wound if he asked him to. 

“If you do not wish to speak, then so be it,” Wrapping around a few more times, the tails of the bandage are neatly tied. Lan Wangji’s hands are firm, the pale lines of his face carved from jade, his sandalwood scent faint under blood and dirt. “But do not lie to my face.”

after the battle of jiangling, wwx melts into a little angst puddle until lwj comes to tend to him with equal parts love and repression. they don't talk about it, why would they ever?? all lwj needs to do is 🥺🥺🥺 at him because that man is WEAK.

also, we have a longingly-gazing-at-your-sleeping-beloved scene. what can i say, wwx's dumbass pining can't take all the spotlight lol

There is a baby in Lan Wangji’s arms.

Small and wrinkled, probably not a newborn, but definitely a warm, squishy, baby. Who, like Lan Wangji, doesn’t make a sound as he’s cradled in white robes, naked as can be.

“Lan Zhan,” Wei Wuxian starts, a little hysterical, eyes darting wildly between the child and the statue that holds it. “Are you hiding babies in your sleeves now?”

In the Xuanwu cave, Lan Wangji's spiritual energy reacts enthusiastically to Wei Wuxian. By complete accident, the result is a pure form of dual cultivation, however brief. Wei Wuxian's core leaves something in Lan Wangji, an imprint of sorts, a gift by any other name.

After a moment of silence, he finally adds. “...I had to cultivate this path to survive, down there.”

Although the words are on the tip of his tongue, Wei Wuxian isn’t so shameless as to say it again. Not when he might mean it. 

The one thing worse than Lan Wangji’s disdain is probably his pity. 

Don’t hate me, Lan Zhan.

wangxian actually talk about the baby somewhat, featuring wwx's leveled up repression and lwj's immediate dad instincts + a shijie cameo!
