Lan Zhan lets his hand be batted away, the firm solid form of Wei Wuxian’s arm pulling him out of his reverie. This isn’t a dream. Not that he hasn’t dreamed Wei Ying being solid before, but because he almost always dreams of him in Lan Gusu. They are as far from the Cloud Recesses right now as they could possibly be.
And Wei Ying is not fine.
Even without being able to see the injury, he can tell. The irritableness gives it away. Lan Zhan’s brows pinch ever so slightly, the worry just barely creasing his brow. Everything in him aches. He’d never gotten a chance to speak, on Dafan mountain. Wei Ying had collapsed before he could say a word. Before he could say I know who you are. If he ever could.
He breathes slowly, centring himself.
Then, very quietly, very lowly, and sounding nothing like the plea it is - the plea it was:
no subject
