Wahhh, so much of this lately! "What do you think?" "Think for yourself"!

[strikingchords]

Who said that?

[he would remember if he had. Wei Wuxian hasn't been asking him so many questions that it's come up.]

[laughitoff]

Wei-xiong, obviously.

[the obvious candidate would actually be Lan Wangji the elder . . . if they talked more often, which they don't]

[strikingchords]

Hm. Teasing you.

[laughitoff]

What a thing to tease me about! How am I supposed to know who you marry in future? I didn't even know you got married!

[strikingchords]

[this is incredible]

Mm.

[laughitoff]

You're not going to tell me either, are you.

[just sounds resigned and sulky, not mad]

[strikingchords]

[he thinks about it, a little]

It may not happen.

[laughitoff]

It's obviously happened for him already.

[strikingchords]

[inclines his head; CERTAINLY TRUE]

[laughitoff]

[sighs]

Do you all think telling me is going to jinx it? I can somewhat understand my own marriage, but how would I prevent you going off and courting in Gusu? Why would I want to prevent that?

[strikingchords]

[why would he, indeed. ouch.

...

honestly:]

It is strange.

[laughitoff]

[maybe he wants you to be happy, Lan Wangji]

How so?

[strikingchords]

To know the future. It may not happen. We rarely discuss it.

[Wangji knows how jealous he might get, if he pondered on it for too long.]

[laughitoff]

Oh, all right.

[flunphs both arms over the side of the boat in defeat, though he keeps his chin propped on it]

[strikingchords]

[watches him, sort of mourning the loss of the tugging hand]

...

Eventually.

[laughitoff]

Eventually you’ll figure out if it’ll happen for you or not?

[strikingchords]

[not what he meant, but it's also true. inclines his head slightly, closing his eyes again]

[laughitoff]

[all right. doesn’t push it further. he supposes it doesn’t matter if he knows or not, ultimately]

[strikingchords]

[possibly doesn't realize that Wei Wuxian wrote the question off, because he does volunteer an answer, finally]

I do not wish to weigh uncertain events. Things are already different.

It is strange.

[laughitoff]

Do you wish it weren't so?

[strikingchords]

It?

[laughitoff]

All of...this. Do you wish we were them?

[strikingchords]

[stares at him, genuinely wordless for a moment; oh]

[laughitoff]

[meets his eyes; the question was earnest enough]
