    Summary

    To say that he runs to his car would be incorrect, as he is a Lan, and running is both undignified and unnecessary unless in immediate danger. Nor does he slam his key into the ignition, or aggressively swerve around the cars on the freeway, or have a mild panic attack at the fact he is picking A-Yuan up late from school for the first time ever.

    He comes close, though.

    By the time he arrives, it’s 4:35PM, and he has imagined about fifty different worse-case scenarios. The door is partly open when he gets to it, a messy label of 104B—Art Room scrawled with chalk on a placard next to the faded wood. As he opens it fully, he expects to see a wailing, terrified child, or perhaps a scene of utter misery and betrayal.

    What he finds is his son, hands covered in paint, being sung to by a beautiful, dark-haired stranger.

    “Ducks live in the pond, yellow ducks, happy ducks!”

    Lan Wangji stops in his tracks.

    Summary

    “A-Zhan, do you have a question?” She asked quietly, chuckling when Lan Wangji’s small frame tensed up more than it already was. A few seconds go by before he nods once.

    His mother hums in acknowledgment, giving permission for her youngest child to ask the question that had been roaming freely in his head. He had to ask, it was serving as a huge distraction from his studies. Lips part open, though his voice comes out more hushed than he anticipated. “A-Niang… What… What color are the gentians in the garden?”

     

    Or, no one can see true colors unless they touch their soulmate.

    Summary

    “Oh, there goes another one.” Nie Huaisang mentions with a sigh, snapping his fan open and gently fanning himself.

    “What do you mean? Do you know what’s going on?” Wei Wuxian asks, his gaze still on Lan Zhan and the person. They wore the Lan sect robes, so maybe they were talking about a night hunt, but if that were the case why did Lan Zhan look so… uncomfortable?

    “You may not know this, Wei-Xiong, but Lan Zhan receives a lot of courting gifts when The Cloud Recesses invites other clans for the lectures every year.”

     

    Or, after finding out Lan Zhan gets courting gifts, Wei Wuxian decides to his own gift.
