Thanks, I try! I could even make it so that it only looks like his face if you touch it a certain way...it's magic~!

[no it's not, he's talking about those magic sequin things,]

[strikingchords]

[takes his free hand and squishes Magolor down by the top of the head just a little tiny bit, to engage in healthy and meaningful self-expression]

[begguiling]

[he lets out a long trilling sound as if he were a button that, when depressed, makes that noise. look what you did]

[strikingchords]

Hm.

[that was strangely satisfying]

[begguiling]

Feeling any better?

[strikingchords]

Hm.

Appreciated.

[begguiling]

[he pats Lan Wangji's hand and snuggles back again. appreciated!]

Er, just so you know, I do want to be friends with him.

[strikingchords]

...

[stares at the garden wall over Magolor's head...]

Wei Ying will approve.

[begguiling]

But you're not happy about it, huh . . . that's fair.

[strikingchords]

[there's an even longer silence this time.]

He failed Wei Ying. Why trust him with Magolor?

[begguiling]

You'll stop my heart with that kind of talk . . . that's truly kind of you to worry about me.

[strikingchords]

[just exhales, not quite a sigh, not replying...]

[begguiling]

I'll take care. Our positions aren't similar, so I'm not worried, but I do take your being worried about it seriously.

[strikingchords]

[calmly]

I am also angry. He does not deserve you.

Not my choice.

[begguiling]

Even when you're angry you compliment me! You're too much! But you're right that it's not. Besides, if people only ever had the love they deserved, I'd still be dead myself.

[it was an entirely undeserved connection that he'd personally betrayed that pulled him back, after all]

[strikingchords]

[sounds... rather far away, honestly]

Had Jiang Wanyin returned loyalty deserved, Wei Ying would not be.

He would not thank me to pity him for it.

[begguiling]

[he lets out a long sigh and is quiet for a moment. then]

I'm not an idiot, so I won't ask if you're okay, but do you need anything?

[strikingchords]

[...he's gonna put Magolor down, though he doesn't-- quite-- get up yet]

Keep watch on his well-being. For the Wei Yings.

[begguiling]

I will. But that's something for them, right? What about for you?

[he lifts up and moves closer again, hovering, though he doesn't cram himself back into Lan Wangji's lap or arms.]

[strikingchords]

Nothing I can in justice ask.

[teeeeense]

[begguiling]

If I told you to ask it anyway, because I'm not the type to care if it's unjust, you still wouldn't, would you? Not that I'm saying I'd agree to it! But I want to know. Are you mad at me for not agreeing with this mysterious unjust request?

[strikingchords]

[grits his teeth a little; nothing about this conversation is going the way he wantedddddddd]

[begguiling]

Nngghh.

[INDEED. the difference is just that Magolor is all too willing to be whiny about it to Lan Wangji's face. he is whining right now! and lifting up more to cling to his arm lightly]

I hate when you're mad at me! But you're also allowed to be mad at me. It's so annoying that both of them are true, but that's how it is!

[strikingchords]

[he doesn't shake him off...]

...

What do you want?

[begguiling]

What a question...

[It's a question because he has to actually think about it seriously. Sigh! But he does that, because it is worth it.]

Obviously, I want everything to magically be okay, and you aren't mad at me for anything I do, and you and Wei Wuxian both feel better about things and live happily here, even if you don't work things out at all with Jiang Wanyin. But that's not a real answer! That's like wishing to be fabulously wealthy, right? So, for real? I do want you to feel better about things and live happily here. And I want you to still love me even if you're mad at me for deciding to talk to him again. And I want to make you feel better, but I don't really know how.
