You were even more dense then than you are now. Also, everyone knows about your undying love for Lan Wangji and his for you. You guys seem the only ones walking around in the dark for some reason.

I just don't see the point and you would surely mock me.

[inventive]

Well of course everyone knows about— actually I just figured it out recently, how does everyone know?

I wouldn't mock you for that. Maybe for thinking you can't have them, but not for loving them.

[eternalgrief]

You are not as subtle as you think and neither is Lan Wangji.

I know I can't have Jiang Cheng, Wei Wuxian.

[inventive]

I'm sorry, you love Jiang Cheng?

Who the hell is he looking at like he loves them?

[eternalgrief]

Now that's none of your business!

And I knew you were going to react this way.

[inventive]

Usually I had to talk him up to people! I'm a little startled, that's all. He deserves to have people love him, especially after he's been alone all this time.

So then whoever it is who he looks at should love him back.

[eternalgrief]

I don't know. He's more obtuse than you maybe.

[inventive]

Uh. I'm almost offended by that. But he can be first in this, so it's fine. You should tell him.

[eternalgrief]

Why would I tell him?

[inventive]

So you can find out how he feels!

[eternalgrief]

I really don't need to hear him say he doesn't have feelings for me... I've known since we were younger and it's never me he looks at.

[inventive]

Jiang Cheng doesn't often understand his own emotions.

And if you have it confirmed he doesn't like you, you can move on. Unless you've loved him since we were teenagers.

[eternalgrief]

I know that but... I would know if he did.

I have. It's stupid. I don't even think he likes men.

[inventive]

I can't answer that one for you, my friend. He had a bad thing for Wen Qing when were younger but I think she might have terrified him a little, so it's probably for the best that didn't work out.

But you can ask him that.

[eternalgrief]

Tell you what, you talk to Lan Wangji and I'll think about talking to Jiang Cheng.

[inventive]

I'll talk to Lan Wangji if you talk to Jiang Cheng, just to ask him about his interest in men.

[eternalgrief]

So you're going to talk to Lan Wangji about how you love him if I ask Jiang Cheng if he has interest in men?

[inventive]

I will tell him I love him.

Jiang Cheng will ask why you want to know, and you shouldn't lie!

[eternalgrief]

It is a deal then.

We'll see how it goes.

[inventive]

It's a deal!

Report back in oh... a few weeks?

[eternalgrief]

No no. Go talk to him now.

[inventive]

Now? That doesn't give me any time to prepare!

Are you going to talk to Jiang Cheng now?

[eternalgrief]

All the better and no time to back out.

Yes.

[inventive]

Going to go confess my undying love to Lan Zhan now.

[eternalgrief]

Tell me how it goes.
