[ Thinking... thinking ]

Were you thinking about it during the meeting? [ When Temenos was making it pretty obvious ]

[diabolizes]

[ Let him think about that for a moment. ]

Vaguely.

[ He had to focus on the meeting, even if he derailed it in a big way. ]

Were you?

[chosenwang]

At the time, I was hoping Psyche went for it. [ So he had no hope. ]

[diabolizes]

[ OOF,

Ahem. ]

We already had at that point, yes. [ ... ] I hope you've realized by now that I'm rather oblivious.

[chosenwang]

[ Just going to look at Psyche and give a grin like you go.

Then change his expression to the normal grin. ]

Good. I did tell her not it, and would have felt bad for taking you first after all of that.

[ How much does Wei Wuxian even know? ] I do know, honey. I've known a while that you can be.

[diabolizes]

What did you tell her?

[ He knows Nothing. ]

[chosenwang]

[ Looking at her to see if this will break girl code. Rival code? ]

[chrysaline]

I wouldn't ask either of you to keep anything from each other.

[ She gives a little nod. It's fine! But a tiny bit more sheepishly: ]

That was, um... after Wei Wuxian and I... [ Ahahaha. ]

[chosenwang]

[ Pfft. ]

I suppose it's even better I said that then. [ That would explain why she felt so bad.

Then he'll look at Wei Wuxian. ]

It was when I was texting you after I fought against the Nomu. I texted Psyche as well to tattle on you. She came over to check up on me and she smothered me with a pillow until I told her if I liked you. Can you believe that? [ Not exactly how it went ]

I was trying to nudge you two together for a bit at that point, and even gave you my blessing if you recall. She was feeling guilty for liking the same person and I didn't want to do the whole rivals thing with someone I cared about. So I told her not it.

[diabolizes]

...

[ Joshua H. Christ. ]

I caused you two a lot of trouble, didn't I?

[ He feels a little bit bad for it, even though he was very clear about his feelings once he realized them. ]

[chosenwang]

I did tell her it was your fault for being so good looking. [ giving him a squeeze ]

It all worked out in the end, right? [ ... ] I also didn't really tell you anything.

[diabolizes]

[ He's getting a pinch in the side for that. ]

I had to dig that confession out of you.

[chosenwang]

[ ABUSE! He does shift a bit at it, but doesn't start the usual dramatic antics ]

You both were my friends first and you both were special to me. [ ...does he have to? ] Your happiness came first.

[diabolizes]

[ He shakes his head, though he's smiling. While he could go on about Wang Lu's kindness, he won't. ]

I do hope you start doing things for yourself more often.

[chosenwang]

[ Thank you for not going on about it. ]

I think I do plenty for myself, especially when we're alone.

[diabolizes]

Hahaha! Well, I'm not opposed to that.

[ Clearly. They'll probably desecrate one spot on each island in the several days they have left. ]

Still, I'd like to hear your thoughts more often.

[chrysaline]

No, it's my fault, really. I just thought, if I could make things turn out right this time...

[ And she's the one who was evading her feelings as hard as she could, so. ]

[diabolizes]

[ He shakes his head. ]

I was oblivious, so we're both at fault. I thought Lan Zhan hated me until you pointed out that he definitely thought of me as a friend, for example. I don't notice these things.

[ wanna drop that bomb on him psyche ]

[chrysaline]

[ You know what. Yeah, he deserves this. And it deflects from her own embarrassment. ]

Wei Ying... are you really that oblivious?

[diabolizes]

[ Oh no, not Wei Ying being pulled out. ]

...What are you talking about?

[chrysaline]

I really don't think he saw you as a "friend."

[ This is a test. Will he disappoint her. ]

[chosenwang]

Not allowed! No blame for you at all. I already told you then my reasons and I wouldn't have had it any other way.

[chrysaline]

If you don't let me take any responsibility, I promise I'll make more trouble for you both in the future. [ Threat (affectionate)? ] And... it might be good for me to be a little more honest about those feelings, too.

[chosenwang]

You are already quite a bit of trouble, but I do want to see you make more. [ ... ] Maybe aimed at him. [ Get him! ]

I'll let you share some of it, but not most or all of it.

[chrysaline]

That wouldn't be fair. I want to share the trouble with both of you.

[ She snuggles closer and settles her hand on his side. Luckily for Wang Lu, Wei Wuxian is about to derail her discovering if he's ticklish. ]

I suppose I can accept that. It's better than none.
