[ Some of them are doodles of this place, the archives, the kitchens, a door, Qinghe, you name it!
But anyway, there's a moment where he made a face, even though Wei Wuxian had stepped in. ]
No, don't go!
[ WWX probably did not ask for a sudden hug, but that was what happened. His eyes were a bit red rimmed from actual crying earlier and then again so he's not going to be crying once more. Whether they be crocodile tears or real ones. ]
I didn't get a chance to thank you for saying something back then. Everything was happening so fast.
[ He's stiff for a moment, before relaxing. Reaching a hand up to give his friend's shoulder a squeeze. The only one that has hugged him in months was A-Yuan, and even then it was just his legs. ]
Were you crying?
[ To tease or not to tease? Okay, he won't tease until later. There were a lot of emotions running high and people were quick to be suspicious... even when Zola was being obviously suspicious for a while ]
We're friends and they were getting upset over a misunderstanding. I couldn't just sit by without saying something.
Okay, though, he had been legitimately scared that he was going to die and it's hard to account for situations even if he tried to think them out in advance, so it was stressful.
Also as selfish as it was (which he had no regrets being), he was grateful for having a friend here. He would never trust any of these people as far as he could throw them if he could help it. Maybe playing up being pathetic will at least seem more genuine to the others because of this, though. ]
You've never been the type to, really, and I'm grateful for that. [ ... ] But it's a bit ironic things had turned out that way.
[ He'd thought it may have been easier for WWX to get into trouble than him, and was prepared to say something in case, but whoops. ]
[ Him never being the type is why he gets in trouble, but it did help take some of the heat off his friendo. He might have to get in more trouble so people will look at him as the possible danger of the pair of them. ]
It is. Usually I'm the one who is suspicious while helping others. That said, maybe we stick together towards the end of the week, Nie-xiong.
[ A part of him almost wants to stack books every where on murder night... or do something else. ]
But if they were staying together towards the end of the week, maybe they could do stuff together, or keep an eye for each other while they were...this could work well. Besides, it put him at ease, to know his friend's whereabouts. ]
Yes, I'm thinking the same, Wei-xiong. If SQ wants to still crash, we could even consider it a huge sleepover party.
[ Since regardless the other would need to know where he was, he figured he should tell him what he's thinking of already. ]
...And, well, I actually still want to do something like put that 'tape' from the general store across the kitchen door ways. It is kind of transparent and sticky, so having the strips stuck across doorways could make it difficult for people going to use those places for a murder. They might not notice it sticking to them once they walk through the doorway.
That'll be fine. SQ seems like a fun addition to any night.
[ Sleepover! Maybe they will get access to alcohol again to make it even more interesting.
He starts to laugh after the suggestion of the tape. ]
That's a good idea! They probably wouldn't expect it. [ Imagine if a killer was caught because of walking into tape. ] I could see if there's anything else we could use from that workshop. [ There's so many interesting tools he can play with ]
[ That was going to be hilarious if they ever got their grubby hands on it, huh. Flashbacks to shenanigary at Cloud Recesses, kind of. ]
Yes, you definitely should, and let me know. [ He'll finally pull back and look up at his friend properly. ] It's...been awhile since we have seen each other, and I still don't like this, but I'm glad to see things haven't changed between us.
[ He really was. He knew by now Wei Wuxian was more intelligent than others presumed he was, so regardless he was sure that if something came of it, it'll be good. ]
...But, yes, something like that. You look absolutely different from last I had seen you, and admittedly I've lost track of time how long that had been when we saw ourselves together, but much younger.
[ But he's been happy to resume their camaraderie. ]

I'll do you even better and show you if I figure something out. [ Time to do the thing he does best after being an oblivious fool, which is tinker.
He'll let his hand drop from his shoulder as he searches his face for a split second. Giving a smile. ]
It feels like it's been longer than it has been for me. I'm sure it's been much longer for you, Nie-xiong.
