[puzzled; it doesn't look like he's blowing him off so much as, he literally can't think of anything he wants to physically improve his life in the dorm]
[he'll listen quietly and occasionally go "mm" at Wei Wuxian making a point. he'll frown faintly as they pat the last bit of grave dirt back into place...]
[he blinks; his attention sharpens. Wei Wuxian can definitely catch a slightly birdlike tilt to his head and the way his pupils dilate in interest. it's subtler than fox noises, but Lan Wangji is not immune to this monster stuff.]
[he'll breathe out and consider whatever that is, to be decided...]
...
The nature of our possessions is strange. They are not the same as the creatures outside, either.
[Wei Wuxian probably overheard parts of that experiment, when they were trapped together -- Yukari's monster was less attracted to the spirit-attracting talisman that Lan Wangji adapted from Wei Wuxian's work than she herself was. weird that he seemed familiar with that, too, but...]

Have you found further ward variations?
no subject
[he'll chatter about those as they finish up; mostly trying to streamline so the wards don't have to be changed every time Phoenix gets a new member]
no subject
A token. Exchangeable.
The Lan Sect's wards accomplish your aims.

[ah; that was the talisman use he had sensed and followed to Lan Wangji, then.]
