“Lan Zhan!”, a voice called out, as Lan Wangji was making his way back from the Cold Pond to the Jingshi. He froze. He knew that voice. He knew the way it was calling his name, the way it was echoing around the forest, way too loud for the Cloud Recesses, where shouting was forbidden…

When Lan Wangji turned around, it was just in time to see a blur of red and black shooting in his direction, before a solid weight collided with his chest and immediately did its best impression of an octopus, wrapping all his limbs around his body, still damp under his robes.

The impact rocked him back and off his feet on the uneven terrain and even though it would only have taken a second to right himself, his arms came around the warm weight instead, pulling it securely against his own body and letting it carry them down onto the grassy ground.

He breathed in the smell of lotus flowers and rich soil, his hands resting on a warm back, hidden under dark grey robes, and pulled his precious burden even closer.

“Wei Ying”, he breathed, “You’re back.”
