She does. I hope I can help her get used to accepting it instead of denying.
[ It’s starting to work, at least! He smiles when Wang Lu pats him on the shoulder. ]
I appreciate your blessing. [ And he really means it. Wang Lu is special to him, even if he was wary of a fellow cultivator at first. ] I’d be happy to extend my own blessing to you as well, should you ever need it.
You have a lot going for you, so don’t discount anything just yet. [ He pauses. ] Ah, I’m alright. I don’t know if getting drunk around here is a good idea for me.
[ Just in general. And he wants to be able to properly comfort anyone else he comes across. ]
Wei Wuxian takes Wang Lu's answer at face value, simply because it lines up with the fact that he broke off an engagement. Maybe he isn't ready to like someone else (or maybe Wei Wuxian is also just stupid, both can be true). ]
Outside of my problems back home and worrying about a few others here? Nothing really.
[ He's under the full belief that things here Could Be Worse. ]
What about yourself? Are you used to the kind of sights we witnessed at trial today?
[ But... Wei Wuxian wasn't all that bothered by it honestly, and it shows. Sometimes, doing horrible awful things to people can desensitize one to even the worst of the worst. ]
I didn't expect things to go quite that awry, but I can't blame Beelzebub for doing it either... I'm simply glad he survived it.
[ Someone would have killed Lobelia at that trial one way or another. ]
I won't force you to relive the experience, but if you ever have a time where you need to talk about it or are suffering from it still... I'll lend you whatever you need.
[ He truly means that. ]
I told him it was about the spirit! He has quite the youthful one. I almost envy it.

Ha ha. ] No need to worry about that ever occurring. [ His luck is pretty atrocious. ] I'm grabbing another drink. Want anything?

Ah, I already know that I've been quite cursed with the subject. [ It isn't like Wei Wuxian would be able to figure it out. ]
Maybe another night then. [ Time to get another beer from the cat bot and calm down. Then he'll be back with the usual smile. ]
Anything else on your mind as of late?

Don't worry yourself too much. We wouldn't want to find any more grays.
[ Let's just go back to jokes and forget feelings were ever a thing. ]
Nothing quite as bad as someone bursting out of the back of a friend.

Since they aren't talking matters of the heart, he will put a hand on Wei Wuxian's shoulder again. ]
I am assuming you've seen all matters of things given your abilities. [ Since he's a necromancer ]
As am I. Beelzebub is a good kid. [ Who is probably the oldest there ]
no subject
I have. I've done plenty of horrible things with my own abilities.
[ He sighs. ]
I don't know if he'd like you calling him a kid.

But, more importantly... ]
I think it would be best if I spared you the details. I'm not a good person when I'm seeking out vengeance.
