[chrysaline]

[ She can't believe she missed this kissing... She shoots Wang Lu a tiny grin. You tell her, Wang Lu. ]

I think you're the one making it sound that way. But a reward sounds fair to me.

[diabolizes]

Aren't you one?

[ Just raising an eyebrow at Wang Lu over that one, as if he isn't the real masochist here. ]

Tell me the reward you want and I'll gladly deliver. Just don't ask me to cook.

[ Because honestly? He owes it to them both for scaring them like that. ]

[chosenwang]

[ He'll spill deets to her later when Wei Wuxian is asleep or visiting with others. ]

That's definitely not one of my kinks. [ Thinking about it. ] I think Psyche should be the one to decide. [ Not it! ]

[chrysaline]

[ She's awaiting the gossip! And also giving Wang Lu an indignant look for just passing the responsibility like that. ]

Me? I'd have to think first...

[diabolizes]

I refuse to decide, so the two of you will need to figure that out on your own.

[ He shifts his legs around just to bother Wang Lu a little bit. ]

[chosenwang]

[ He only smiles at her and gives a look to say what did she expect. ]

You could ask for full control of his hair and wardrobe for a day. Maybe a date or he has to do everything we say for a few hours.

[ He's going to wiggle on the legs as if trying to get comfy again. ] Keep moving them and I might be tempted to bite.

[chrysaline]

It sounds like you had a lot of things you wanted already. Maybe... those are your kinks after all.

[ You know what, he's right. She really should have expected this. She winds a strand of Wei Wuxian's hair around her fingers and gives a very gentle tug. ]

[diabolizes]

[ Time to bump Wang Lu with his leg again as he tilts his head towards Psyche so she can keep playing with his hair. ]

He's wanted a piece of me for so long that he's developed new and exciting interests.

[chosenwang]

I can't believe you're ganging up on me. [ Time to reach over to poke Psyche in the side. Are we ticklish ] I'd show you what new and exciting interests I may have developed when you're better. [ He really wants to be bitten huh ]

[chrysaline]

[ WE'RE TICKLISH, HELP... she lets go of Wei Wuxian's hair so she doesn't tug more when she twitches and laughs in surprise. ]

Then, I think you have a good reason to recover quickly, don't you?

[diabolizes]

Hmm… perhaps.

[ He smiles, watching as Psyche ducks away. Hm. Time to commit to memory that she’s ticklish. ]

You better impress me, Wang Lu. If it something boring, I’ll be upset.

[chosenwang]

[ Looks like he's revealing Psyche's weaknesses to the enemy. ]

You do remember who you're talking to. I always impress you. [ Giving a wink. He won't keep poking, even if it's tempting. Maybe later when they can also double team Wei Wuxian. ]

[chrysaline]

[ Psyche will remember this... They both get a justifiably suspicious look, but she goes back to carding her fingers gently through Wei Wuxian's hair if no further attacks are incoming. ]

I'm glad you two had such a good talk. [ If indeed there was talking! She's not judging! ]

[diabolizes]

We did, even if he was all dramatic about it.

[ He wasn’t, but Wei Wuxian likes to make shit up, so here they are.

But he’ll give Wang Lu a little something: ]

I suppose you are a little impressive.

[chosenwang]

[ There is nothing to be suspicious of. Does he look like he would take advantage of any tickle spots? Can't be him at all.

Sitting up to give Wei Wuxian's thigh a pat. ]

A little impressive? That wasn't what you were saying last night. [ He is studying the other again. ] I do wonder why you wound up sick but I wasn't touched.

[chrysaline]

And I always thought you were so honest, Wei Wuxian. Maybe he's just shy?

[ That's to Wang Lu, who gets a sidelong smile before her expression sobers. ]

I've been wondering about that, too. Some poisons only work in combinations... like something you drink that doesn't have any effect until you breathe in a powder later. It could be because Wei Wuxian went somewhere else, or... something like that. [ She bites her lip a little, then adds: ] Could anyone have put something on the flute?

[diabolizes]

A combination would make sense. Given last night, it makes no sense for Wang Lu to be alright.

[ He frowns, staring up at the ceiling. ]

I always keep my flute on me. It would be nearly impossible to put something on it.

[ He even sleeps with it tucked close. The only exception was putting it on the bar counter for a while the previous night. ]

…I’m sorry for worrying the two of you like that.

[chosenwang]

He can be quite shy. [ It's adorable really ]

[ Can't believe someone snuck in while they were busy to poison Wei Wuxian's flute ]

I do wonder if there will be a repeat but with a stronger dose. [ Wei Wuxian is talking like it's done and over with but they still have a night of being knocked out to look forward to. ]

We also don't know the full range of people's abilities so it may not even need to be applied to anything. [ Maybe it was a spell like in the popular JRPG Last Dream series ]

[chrysaline]

Until we know what happened, you should both be careful. [ With a little frown at Wang Lu too, and she reaches for his hand. ] We don't even know which of you they were trying poison, or if something will happen again, and if I can't heal it...

[ Well. She's still pretty stressed, but she does at least know it's not Wei Wuxian's fault. She can lean down to kiss his forehead while still holding onto Wang Lu. ]

You already promised to tell us properly next time. But... I really will be angry if you forget again.

[diabolizes]

[ He leans into that little kiss, letting out a sigh. Wang Lu is right about it probably not being over, and it frustrates him, especially as he'd like to move on from his immediately like he does with most things. ]

...I'll do my best not to forget.

[ Wei Wuxian pauses, like he's considering saying more, and he eventually decides to. ]

I've gotten used to keeping that kind of thing to myself.

[chosenwang]

[ It's almost instinct at this point to take her hand when she reaches out. He's going to look from her, and then look to Wei Wuxian. ] While I appreciate your concern, I doubt I was the intended recipient. They would have had plenty of openings to get me or both of us if they wanted.

[ They were rather distracted with their chat.

Placing his palm carefully on Wei Wuxian as he doesn't want him hacking up more. ]

[chrysaline]

Maybe. But until we know for certain, it could have been either of you. [ A firmer hand squeeze! She's glad they were so distracted, but still...

She looks down at Wang Lu's hand on Wei Wuxian and smiles a little. ]

It takes time to change a habit. I know you're trying. We all just... need time to get used to it, maybe.

[diabolizes]

I suppose there's no real use overthinking it until we get real evidence that could point us to who or what did it.

[ He takes a long, deep breath, his lungs feeling... pretty bad, honestly. Wei Wuxian wipes a bit of sweat from his brow. ]

...Time will help.

[chosenwang]

[ Brushing his thumb against Wei Wuxian as he shakes his head. While he knows thinking in circles isn't helping, and they should just enjoy the moment now, he keeps going back to last night and the possibilities. He does give something of a tired smile to them both though. ]

Time will help. Maybe a bath as well. Psyche, do you have washcloths around here? [ Hopefully their bonding time last night didn't make whatever it was worse ]

[chrysaline]

[ Wang Lu and her both, honestly. But the tiredness in his expression makes her brow knit for just a moment again before she gets to her feet. ]

Of course. I'll get them. [ To Wei Wuxian, nominally, although she'll accept Wang Lu outvoting him: ] Should I go find you a change of clothes, too?
