[from here]


Ah, hello, Zewu-jun! You needn't apologize, it seems quite a few of us are here. I'm glad to hear from you, too.

Aside from being a little overwhelmed by... everything, yes, I am. Are you?

[equivocations]

Yes, it seems so. At the very least, we will have the comfort of familiar faces.

Overwhelmed by everything is a very good way to put it, but yes, I am all right as well. Forgive me for asking so many questions of you, but - do you have a place to stay? The lodgings available have come stocked with food, but the kitchens are quite different from what we're used to.

[ He's trying not to fuss over him, because he knows Wangji will provide anything Sizhui could need, but he worries all the same. ]

[deferences]

As selfish as it may sound, I am glad to have so many people here I recognize. [by himself, he would've managed alright – he is a lan, after all! – but having those around he knows certainly makes things a lot easier to handle.]

Good, I'm pleased to hear you're doing okay, too. You needn't apologize for the questions, Zewu-jun, I completely understand... and figure they are necessary in some sense. To be frank, it's a relief you asked; I haven't given much thought to where I might stay or anything else like that at the moment. May I ask what makes the kitchens so different?

[as long as he can cook in it, that's what matters, right? and let's be honest, sizhui doesn't mind fussing whatsoever; it's a relief if they're being truly straightforward.]

[equivocations]

[ He is very glad he asked, now - the fussing intensifies. ]

You are always welcome with me, Sizhui. The lodgings I found have an extra room.

[ He's certain that Sizhui would be more than welcome to stay with Wangji and Wuxian, of course, but Lan Xichen himself learned the hard way that sometimes it was best to have a little bit of distance from the newlyweds. ]

The technology here is quite different from what we have back home. If you would like, I would be happy to have you over and show you.

[deferences]

[zewu-jun, please, he isn't so incapable! (but is honestly quite thankful for the housing offer, nevertheless.)]

So long as you're sure it wouldn't be a burden? I know I could get my own home, but just having a room to go to for a day or two would be nice. [while he'd also appreciate the same offer from his fathers, letting them have their own space seems like the right idea, considering and all. sizhui hasn't learned and isn't wanting to anytime soon, so!]

You can say that again! I'm glad someone was able to give me a quick rundown of the device we're using to communicate or it's likely I would've struggled more. Anything you are willing to teach me, I am always prepared to learn.

[equivocations]

You could never be a burden! I would be glad for your company for as long as you wish to stay.

[ He may have left seclusion earlier than intended, but it has been months, now, and he has realized that remaining in solitude was not an ideal situation for him. ]

Have you found the Farmer's Market? I can meet you there and we can pick up a few things.

[deferences]

Then I'll at least stay for a bit until I get my feet under me. And I know you say it, but that's an assumption I'd rather not make.

[and lan xichen being in seclusion is exactly why; it's odd, knowing he's here, and sizhui wonders how he's adapting so easily... which of course reminds him then:] Sorry if it seems intrusive, why do you know how to use the kitchen?

I have! It's actually not too far away from where I'm at, so I'll meet you there.
