Bear!? Bear! There was a bear in the bath!

( So comes this startled and startling shout, as elsewhere in camp, Wei Wuxian is (unfortunately) streaking past in damp, confused glory, a bear of arctic composure lumbering after him, soap bar still in mouth. Come back! He was just handing the soap over, he wanted to help! )

[weifinder]

... Right!

( which is when he bites into the pad of his finger, drawing with his blood across his chest, and... is about... when he reaches Master Su. )

[downswing]

( You can enjoy this escapade for precisely an eighth of a shichen, before the inevitable check-in: )


...Wei Ying?


( Breath harsh and laboured, while he chases through the caravan. )

[weifinder]

( Murmured, low: )

The bear avoids. Master Su sooths it. You know, I think it's been technically following us since Sa-Hareth? Also, I have a blanket now.

[downswing]

( Ah. That voice, then. )

...you frightened.

[weifinder]

... I just wanted a bath, Lan Zhan, and now I've run the came mostly nude with a bear after me. Aren't these things only supposed to happen to younger men, ah? Aren't I too old for this?

( that voice, now evolved into... that whine. )

[downswing]

Too old. Wrinkled. ( A strategic pause: ) And safe?

[weifinder]

Distinguished. ( His correction, likewise a complaint. ) And safe.

[downswing]

The ancient requires assistance?

[weifinder]

Directions to a pool come dawn... this is disgusting. I feel so gross, Lan Zhan.

[downswing]

You wish for more bath water?


( Going to take that gamble? )

1/2

[weifinder]

Ahahahaaaa...

[weifinder]

One bucket's worth? I've rags...

[downswing]

The Yiling Patriarch, fearing his bath water.

[weifinder]

It's not like I have an impressively large cave pool of my own anymore, ah? Don't leave next time!

[downswing]

Wei Wuxian.

[weifinder]

Lan Zhan!

( he's not escalating to Lan Wangji HE'S NOT ASKING TO BE ATTENDED, JUST NOT LEFT FOR THE BEARS )

[downswing]

I cannot.

[weifinder]

You want me to be molested by a bear?!

( BAETRAYED )

[downswing]

Wei Ying runs aptly.

[weifinder]

Lan Wangji.

[downswing]

...no. Not of your mouth.

[weifinder]

( just a sounds of frustration on this end, bitten off. )

[downswing]

You wish your tent guarded throughout baths.

Name it done.

[weifinder]

I'm handling it.

( no more tent baths, he's found a bucket and he's heading to the water with an umbrella he just ganked. he's got this bae. )

[downswing]

( Give him a moment. And another, stolen. )

...why?
