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.
I would bother Lan Zhan all the time. I even call him by his birth name just to irritate him. I doubt he sees me as anything other than an acquaintance.
[ He sighs. ]
Would either of you like someone that publicly pelted you with flowers, or that pestered you constantly when you're supervising them during their punishment, or if that person pawned off rabbits on you as a joke?
You know, I really don't want to say it because I don't want another man in your thoughts, but I fear what Psyche will do if this persists.
You really are someone who likes to goad and tease your crushes. [ He seems more amused ] Let me ask you this, Wei-gege... Would you ever keep seeking someone out if they did all of that to you if you didn't like them?
What does it say about him then? You did all of that and he still spent time with you. He's also the one that was concerned in your memory, right? Why would he be concerned about you if you were just an acquaintance?
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.

[ But, uh... give him a moment. ]
I suppose not. Of course, I'd find it funny, but I don't think most would.
no subject
Hm... so, if you don't think he found it funny, why do you think he still wanted your company?
no subject
No. He did not have a crush on me.
no subject
I think he must have loved you very deeply.

Just. Give him a moment while he short circuits a bit. ]
Ahaha... I doubt that. There's no way.

Anyone would be concerned over a childhood acquaintance. I really doubt he had a crush or anything of the sort.

[ 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.
