๏ผ the last statement is the unnecessary one. so well-behaved and sweet — not at all like me. but it is nothing unexpected — wei wuxian always frames himself as worse than he is. there is a moment of brief, uncomfortable parallel and then he pushes past it to say —
(it is not lost on him, that sasuke too was sixteen.) ๏ผ
I wish I knew what he was like now. Zewu-jun says he's very sweet.
When Lan Zhan took him in, he had a bad fever. It took all of his early memories so he probably doesn't remember me at all. It's for the best though. It was a rough couple of years. [At this point he knows he's just rambling, and he pauses with a sigh, staring idly at a wall as he recalls some of his favorite memories of a-Yuan.]
He really wanted siblings. He was the only child who survived the labor camps and he was all alone, and he kept asking for siblings. So, one day I buried him in our garden alongside the other radishes and told him that I would grow him some siblings this way. I can't believe he's forgotten such important memories! Now he'll never know where children come from.
๏ผ wei wuxian can't see it, but even though he recognizes it as one of wei wuxian's avoidance tactics, it's pulled a smile to his face. faint, just the barest upturn at one corner of his mouth, but there. ๏ผ

It's very you.

Yeah. It is, isn't it?
I didn't even ask before. Were you sleeping? Did I wake you?

But I'm glad to hear you're managing. Completely and totally shocked, of course, but glad.
