[They will enjoy it heartily... or they had better or Wei Wuxian will kill their asses.
He also BLANCHES AT THAT, furiously waving one hand. He swings wildly between "I don't want to talk about this at all period" and "I don't want to talk about this so I just overshare"...]
Well, I don't have to walk down a hall and worry about running into someone having sex on the floor, so that's good! [He's still very paranoid about demons in general, though. Sexboat turned him into Mr. Crocker.]
Outside of the whole murder thing and all of the hidden little bits of information we've yet to discover about this place that will surely make it tens of times worse than "oh, it's just remnants", it's been fine enough. What about you, ah? You've been here how long, exactly? You had enough time to make some real friends, it seems! Good, good.
[The other two NPCs, he means!]

| | I really don't... think it will go that badly, young master Wei... I know that it already isn't good, but I think it should be better than your boat. [at least wei wuxian is prepared for worst case scenarios? but as his npc, wen ning feels he needs to be as reassuring as possible-- he chose wei wuxian for his team, after all, and for the job he gave him. even if the latter wasn't, uh, exactly a choice he consciously made.] But I don't know exactly how long I've... been here. It was hard to keep track. I just know it was longer than all of you. -the others have helped a lot. They... introduced me to more things. |
[He just huffs out a sigh, shoveling a couple of spoonfuls of his meal into his mouth. He appreciates Wen Ning's attempts to be reassuring, though - Wen Ning always tries to be reassuring... Shouldn't it be the other way around? Goodness. He's really slipping.
After he chews and swallows, because he has .5% of a manners:]
That boat did set the bar very low, yes. [IT SURE... DID. He hums at that though, reaching out to pat Wen Ning's hand with his free one.]
You've done well! I can't imagine it was easy dealing with all of us tumbling in here and immediately suspecting you three of wanting to corral us into murder. [There's a little twitch of his mouth; a half-smile.] That Purple Heart is quite protective of you two. Wants to take the brunt of the anger for you, so you know - not that it's surprising.
[Dick's narc tendencies are rubbing off.]

Mm, think nothing of it! Bye, friend.
[And with one last pat for Cinnabun and a cheery wave for Purple Heart, he's on his way back out the door.]

[He doesn't think that's the way vegetables work, good void-person!!]
If only we could be so lucky! It'd be easier to get children to eat their vegetables if that were the case.

[Feeding the grey rabbit first! LEAD THE WAY HE'S GOT A WEN NING TO PATCH UP.]
[Feeding the tiny blue rabbit next! He'll follow this sweet bun wherever it goooes.]
[AND FINALLY he'll be feeding the purple bun! Take him to your leader.]
[cinnabun happily hops along after wei wuxian feeds her, squeaking up at him as she approaches the door marked 3A. it's back to the conference room today where purple heart is sprawled out over a beanbag chair with a cup of coffee and seemingly staring at the ceiling. as wei wuxian enters the room though, they lift a hand.]
Good afternoon.
Good afternoon.
[HE LOVES CINNABUN SO MUCH. If she doesn't scamper over to Purple Heart right away, he'll reach down to pick her up after they enter the room, giving her a fond cuddle. He trots his way over, flopping down on the floor next to the beanbag. He's - hm, a little pale?? And also has that kind of "wired because I haven't slept for a while" air about him, but his expression is the same as ever.]
Afternoon! [HE'S ALIVE... SOMEHOW. And he's got another folded paper in his free hand, which he flaps a little.]
I ended up a little busy this week, but I've finally finished that picture.

| | [wen ning will be in the conference room, this time, settled on a beanbag chair rather than the usual chair in his office. he's rolling his shoulder a bit, testing it to see if it went back into place correctly... he pulls his hood off when wei wuxian enters, though, looking relieved.] Young master Wei. You both... lived. |
[OVER HE GOES, looking a little paler than usual and wired in a way Wen Ning's probably familiar with. He's got his fuckin headbag with the two holes in it since that's what could hold the most medical supplies, a thick needle from the arts and crafts cabin sticking out the side of it. He pauses long enough to give Trine a few pets and ear scritches before straightening again, settling next to the chair.]
Surprising, isn't it? [ODOROITAKA????] Who'd have thought it's so tedious, trying to cover up a murder.
[Wei "who would dare stop me among you if I wanted to kill someone right here and now" Wuxian hates this sneaking around shit... He chooses "tedious" instead of "nervewracking" despite the latter being more true because he's had a whole day to calm his ass down by now, at least.]
Come - let me see your injuries.

[it heads for winter's office! where he will find them communing with their desk. winter has their face pressed against the top, their arms outstretched at both sides of their head... and then they glance up, only to point a finger at the door.]
Close the door. We're meditating together now.

| | [shut tf up tsuruxian.] It seemed like it was... easier for them to do it, on the island. But then several of us died at a time... [so there was a lot to cover, really. his own case was difficult, he knows. he's keeping a close eye on wei wuxian, because-- yes, he remembers seeing him like this. he didn't want to see him like this again, but... here they are, and it's his fault that things are like this. wei wuxian was right; he should have just chosen and taken responsibility. his young master would never have had to kill, if he had just done that much. with that running through his mind, he looks preoccupied as he shrugs the robe from his shoulders, exposing his torso and arms. one arm was cracked by guy's bat, the skin split over a fractured bone, his shoulder was dislocated but popped back in, and... right, wei wuxian hasn't seen the hole through him. wen ning knows he's not from the same time, but it's a little late to hide it now.] They aren't bad. He didn't... hit me that hard. |
[...Hm. Well, honestly, that's a mood. He too wants to become one with an inanimate object. Preferably a coffin, or the dirt.
But he'll dutifully shut the door after him and mosey over to the other side of the desk, where he sits and cants his head to the side.]
I've never been very good at it. Is it helping?

[i can't believe im gonna have to come kill you, teej, personally, with my own two hands
Anyway Wei Wuxian, in the stupid way that he is and does, has probably already forgotten the scathing words he spat out at Black Shadows in his anger that first Monday! Terrible!! Heedless of the fact that it's struck Wen Ning so deeply, he just starts setting up his little toolkit.
Though he gets distracted by the HOLE-- Good thing Anaido doxxed him already haha. He starts a little regardless, and then clicks his tongue in irritation and reaches out to touch the edge of the hole.]
Who in the world did this to you, ah? This is terrible - I'll patch it up, too. But let me start with that arm of yours, alright?

| | ...all right. [he holds out his arm obediently, used to this. it's familiar-- he's missed it, he thinks.] The hole- I don't know... how much I should say, if you haven't experienced some things yet. [wei wuxian still thinks he's single and it's killing his wen ning.] But it was Nie Mingjue. [with his other arm, he reaches up to touch the edge of the hole as well, looking down at it.] You don't have to. It's... not like I have to look nice, and... [...and it's what drew anaido to him in the first place, wasn't it? someone-- liked it. liked him, despite how he looks, despite everything.] |
[HE THINKS HE'S SINGLE BECAUSE HE'S SINGLE! HE'S NOT FROM NIE HUAISANG'S AU!!!! IT'S FINE.]
Mm, that's fine - better safe than mistaken, yes? [He's making a face at the mention of Nie Mingjue though godDAMN. Fuckin angryass man, punching holes through his zombie bff. Then, because he's tactless, he just sorta sticks his hand into the hole to poke around at the nasty crumbling bits inside.]
You still don't feel any pain or anything like that, I hope? [HE SAYS, AFTER HE STICKS HIS HAND IN THERE.] It's a pretty gaping wound, though. If you don't cover yourself up the wind would go right through you! You don't want it fixed?
[It's the "and..." that has him grasping on to that possibility, and he gives Wen Ning a curious look.]

[cinnabun lets herself be picked up for cuddles, settling down with him in their beanbag. purple heart continues to watch quietly, pondering for a moment because that's also a mood.]
Oh yeah? I'm curious to see what you've come up with. May I? [they hold out a hand then to ask for the paper. show them!!]

[Cinnabun continues to be among his favorite three in camp, with the other two being Pennyworth and Trine.
Anyway, he hands over the paper! When it's unfolded, it's a picture of Junpei in Purple Heart's outfit, but for some reason, he's got a goatee and mustache and he's posing like some sort of diabolical James Bond villain, petting Cinnabon like those evil fluffy white cats.]
I spent a lot of time on it, so I hope you frame it.
