you’re coming to visit??

done
i’ll go sit on him

yes and no

he's going to try and kill lan zhan

he's probably joking but we are not risking that!

. . .

what

why is he going to kill hanguang-jun???

they never even fought in my time
despite how it looked like they might

why would they fight now????

i have no

no i have some idea

but the important thing here is that they don't kill each other! because lan zhan will fight back if jiang cheng does anything!

we must protect him

there is no way they are going to fight

that would be so stupid
damn it

he doesn’t need protecting he needs to be shaken

and hanguang-jun should know better than to let it happen!!

jin ling, i am going to say this to you as a secret and forgive me for saying this

but lan zhan and jiang cheng are NOT VERY SMART

AND THEY'RE REALLY BAD AT LISTENING

AND THEY HAVE HORRIBLE ATTITUDES

AND THEY'RE MEAN

[ Wow how VERY dare ]

Wei Wuxian

you have zERO legs to stand on in order to call people not smart???

if they’re mad at each other it’s for a reason??? they didn’t like each other back home either but they only ever fought over you

how are they mean??? they are both really nice!! especially here!!!

THAT MAKES THEM EVEN MORE STUPID, WHY EVEN FIGHT OVER ME?

[okay this is way too close to uncomfortable honesty]

I JUST WANT THEM TO GET ALONG

all i want is for jiang cheng to be happy and lan zhan to be happy and for these two idiots to get along and be friends because the day's gonna come when they'll have to work together and stop messing around! your uncle is going to be sect leader! lan zhan's going to be a great cultivator just like zewu-jun! all i've done is make a mess of things between yunmeng jiang and lanling jin, we don't have to

with gusu lan

this

what does fighting over me accomplish?

[ Jin Ling’s natural inclination is to start yelling, but...

He suddenly feels a very real, very deep and very painful sympathy for Wei Wuxian.

It’s like hearing himself echoed through someone else’s voice - or typing, anyway. ]

it’s

it’s complicated

look
i want them to get along too

i want more than anything for us to all
to just live here
and if i can put that stuff behind me then they should be able to, too

but people fight over the things they care about

it’s not your fault if they’re being dumb
people fight over me all the time and i didn’t do anything

hanguang-jun...

i tried to convince him to forgive my uncle but

i just
i just want them to get along too

but no one listens to me about anything

i listen to you. you're a smart kid, and you have a strong heart, and you're not half-bad with cultivation too.

but listen to me, okay? you're gonna be someone very important when you grow up, and people are going to look up to you for a lot of things. don't look at me as a good example.

jiang cheng cares a lot, even if he doesn't let people know about it, so he can't! pick so many fights!!! that's what i'm here for!

[ Fucking. How did he end up loving this man so much and still wanting to shove him at the same time? ]

shut up

shut up right now
don’t give me this good example shit

i know your example
better than anyone
and i still believe in you, don’t i?? i’m still here, aren’t i??

my uncle cares about everything and especially you so just

look

i can’t convince hanguang-jun but maybe you can
and you can’t convince my uncle but maybe i can

we’ll make a two pronged attack okay

you tell hanguang-jun that things are only going to be different here if we make them

Edited 2020-03-17 13:39 (UTC)

this is a terrible plan. you and i, against two very stubborn people. we need all the luck in the world, jin ling.

but you're right. things have to change. this isn't home, and the rules are different here.

someone has to make the first move.
