[one_note]

[he watches Lan Wangji sit still a little while longer, and then finally shift to get up]

I will go.

[weiyingdown]

I'll meet you there!

[hmm wait is he on Lan Wangji's only path out of the garden,,]

[one_note]

[he MIGHT be

on the other hand Lan Wangji is not moving with particular speed.]

[weiyingdown]

[it is too embarrassing to be caught snooping on him, so he tries to sneak back out without getting caught]

[one_note]

[if Lan Wangji notices, he doesn't call him out on it '-'

Wei Wuxian probably gets to Mint first; Lan Wangji enters quietly but doesn't attempt to hide that he has come in.]

[weiyingdown]

[he is currently wearing a butler outfit because he hasn't had time to change yet. he can also be found in his room! the door is cracked open when Lan Wangji gets back, and he can hear him making a racket in there]

[one_note]

[peers in the door

Wei Wuxian looks good in a butler outfit actually. looks him over]

[weiyingdown]

[it's much more form-fitting than his other clothes, by virtue of not being flowing robes! he's going in and out of his bathroom, dumping a few lotus pods onto his table and then going back in for more. but he spots Lan Wangji peeking in during a trip back, and stops to wave him inside. the whole room smells faintly of plants, dirt, and rabbit poop]

Come in already, Hanguang-Jun!

[one_note]

[blinks and then moves inside, quiet as ever]

[weiyingdown]

[ducks in to grab two more pods before taking a seat at the low table; he gestures for Lan Wangji to sit with him and starts picking out the seeds to plop them into a bowl, one by one]

I already said it wasn't something big. But I can promise they're tasty.

[one_note]

[kneels by him...]

"The ones with stems taste better."

[weiyingdown]

[laughs, delighted]

Do you remember everything I say? I'm sure it's true though.

[one_note]

Mm.

Have tried them. You are correct.

[he'll reach for a pod to start extracting seeds himself, if Wei Wuxian lets him]

[weiyingdown]

[he does pout when Lan Wangji reaches for a pod, but it's an exaggerated pout clearly signifying that he wanted to be the one picking them for Lan Wangji: all in good fun, and nothing serious. he keeps picking seeds and plunking them into the bowl]

Of course I was correct. I'm speaking from many years of experience, after all. But when did you try them before this?

[one_note]

The summer, after you left.

[weiyingdown]

--Really?! And you didn't even come to visit! What a shame.

[one_note]

Yes.

[it is a shame. he does wish he had reached for all those moments, all those missed opportunities.]

[weiyingdown]

Then we can consider this a bit of making up for lost time too. How's that?

[stops picking seeds to offer him one]

[one_note]

[eyes it







very carefully nips it out of Wei Wuxian's fingers]

[weiyingdown]

[!!!





grabs another one and offers it up too...]

[one_note]

[he does the same for that one ('-' )]

[weiyingdown]

[completely distracted from picking more seeds, he starts feeding him the ones in the bowl one by one, purposefully making each one hard to nip out from between his fingers.

there aren't that many and the bowl is empty soon! but he looks satisfied as he starts to pick more]

[one_note]

[picks up the next one and offers it to him.]

[weiyingdown]

[he is not careful at all; his teeth scrape Lan Wangji's fingers as he eats it, licking his lips after]

I should have gotten some salt for these.

[one_note]

[his ears redden]

We have some.
