[the fact that both dick and wwx turned into the blob "oh no" comics upon hearing that junpei had access to their histories is very funny
HE MAY BE JOKING but Wei Wuxian still gives him a quietly concerned look...]
Don't tell me that's why you're gone on Fridays. [Said with a little huff of a laugh like he's joking too BUT HE'S WORRIED. And then he's smiling, and it's a strange mix of apology and gratitude and something hard to pin.]
Kind of you, dear omniscient host. [He says on a joking lilt, even though he really is thankful.] I'm sure you have enough on your plate anyway. Hah, next time we're called on, I'll try to keep things simple and clean for you all.
Not the whole time. We spend Fridays checking on evidence and making sure we know what's happening so we're not at a total loss on Saturday. We always know who's guilty and how they enacted the kill. But...otherwise yeah. [sometimes you just crash out for a while.]
I'm really hoping there won't be a next time, but I'll keep that in mind.
[Monday hasn't even happened yet, but Wei Wuxian just laughs and reaches out to pat Junpei's arm.]
We all know how these things go. [He's 100% expecting to go again Eventually, even if he sure isn't expecting "eventually" to mean "the very next week".]
I guess Friday is the only chance you get to not be pestered nonstop by the rest of us too, hm? Might as well take advantage.
Yeah, I know. [ugggh.] Fridays are my days off from you guys, yeah, but...it's not like I always want them to be. It's just for the best not to see us until after the trial. Like, uh, how you're not supposed to see the bride before the wedding? It's bad luck or something.
That's a strange metaphor. [On Wednesday now he'll be like WHY IS JUNPEI OBSESSED WITH WEDDINGS.] But fair enough, fair enough. Well! I'll come see you again before or after Friday next week then, assuming I make it through!
It's not really a metaphor it's like...a weird tradition or something, I don't know. [leave his weddings alone!!!] I'm sure you'll be fine though. So...I'll plan on it.

A weird tradition... [Hm. Junpei's a weird tradition, god.] Again with the unreasonable faith! But alright, alright - I won't keep you waiting.
[He says this jokingly but LITTLE DOES HE FUCKING KNOW THERE ARE THREE OTHER MURDERERS RUNNING AROUND OUT THERE.]
