Yeah but you don't make arrests, so why do you have handcuffs? Also what, your powers are fine, mine are ridiculous, I have none until I touch someone!

... You know, maybe this is a direct response to the amount of swooning I had in the months before the whole murder case was wrapped up, do you think it could be? Hmm...

Anyway, yes, all that matters is he gets the information. Wherever he's from this stuff makes sense, so he or the rest working with him are gonna have some way to process it all.

My powers are stupid, Wei Wuxian! Who needs to know everything that I'm feeling, huh? No one but me! So it better stop soon or I'm going to get really angry.

[ Like he isn't already angry, or constantly in a state of irritation and frustration. ]

I'll see what I can find out. I want this to be over as much as the next person does - none of this makes sense, I hate all this stupid technology and people don't remember who I am.

[weifinder]

I hate to tell you, I think most of us close to you could already figure out what you were feeling, didi.

( lmf and there we are, lil bro. )

Which people have you run into who don't remember you?

[fennu]

Don't be stupid, no they couldn't. Now it's completely different.

[ He's gruff about it, feeling irritated, pained, frustrated. ]

Zewu-jun. Madoka. Tidus. Thanatos.

[weifinder]

Sure, sure, as you say, it's as you say if you say it!

( luff u and this is why he defends you to so many people )

... Today, or yesterday?

We should get in touch with them, as soon as we can. See which may be remembering now, see who we can help. I have Shen Jiu and Nell with me, Nell's... new, I think, but she's starting to question. Shen Jiu's already aware, too.

[fennu]

That's how words work.

[ fuck off and die. ]

Yesterday. I think. Time is odd at the moment.

Lan Xichen seemed deep in it, so did Madoka. I can check on them again, but I'm not sure how far they'll come. Madoka seems too happy here to break it so easily.

[weifinder]

( he did once, no one liked it )

Time is very odd, I agree.

Zewu-jun... is it the younger him, or the older him? As for Madoka, you mean the gentle hearted young woman with the peony coloured hair?

[fennu]

[ he liked it for about 0.5 seconds - ]

I don't know which one it was, how am I supposed to tell? They're both polite to me.

And that's her, yes. She said you met her.

[weifinder]

( wow, cold bro!!! )

One looks like he sleeps better.

Yes, this last platform we talked! She has some kind of scheme involving apple bunnies, but that's a question, Jiang Cheng. The two of you have memories, conversations that matter, yes?

[fennu]

I can't tell here. We're not the same here, are we? It could have been either of them.

Apple bunnies? Not like the donkey, right? [ Lord. ] Of course we do. She said you were 'good'. Imagine my surprise.

[weifinder]

We've not been here for months, Jiang Cheng, we don't unseem ourselves to that degree!

No, no, apples shaped to bunnies, not bunnies being fed apples like the donkey enjoyed. Either way, then those conversations, those things, are ties between you. I'd lean into them when it comes to talking with her—do you know reasons she might not be willing or able to wake out of the illusion's trap?

Also, I am good. Too good! As it turns out.

[fennu]

I spilled coffee on him and he did not get angry. It could have been either of them! I didn't spend a long time staring at his face!

[ For goodness sake!! Not this time, anyway. ]

She's being lied to again and again. Poor girl.

[weifinder]

Yes but did he look like he needed coffee more than you did?

Ah, ah! So mean, Jiang Cheng, right for the heart you go. Such a sweet young woman, why would I lie?

[fennu]

I don't know. I already told you that I didn't look at his face that hard! Don't be strange!

I don't know, you tell me.

[weifinder]

I wouldn't, I wouldn't, you grump. Also what is strange about looking a fellow in the face? Were you tempted to stare?

[fennu]

No! Of course not!

[weifinder]

Why, is he not handsome enough?

( distraction, thy name is flustering )

[fennu]

What? No, wasn't he the most handsome in the world or something? Idiot.

[weifinder]

So you weren't staring respectfully?

[fennu]

I wasn't staring at all! I don't know what you're talking about.

[weifinder]

Right, right, so it was staring disrespectfully. At his chin? His lips? His eyes? His neck? Do you like how the clothes here fit, that could be a full stare on its own!

[fennu]

What do his clothes have to do with anything? He was wearing a suit, same as me, and it fit him well. Isn't that a normal thing?

[weifinder]

That you both dress well and you noticed his suit fit him nicely? Were you thinking that about everyone you came across at your office, ah?

[fennu]

What are you trying to say, huh?

[weifinder]

You think Zewu-jun's attractive in a personal, Jiang Cheng is attracted to Zewu-jun sense!
