[ Jiang Cheng doesn't really know what to say at the claim this is Wei Wuxian's fault. He reflexively dislikes the notion, wanting to defend the idea that Wei Wuxian could be in the wrong with the insufferable, inflexible, and often outright inexplicable Lan Wangji. But then he, Jiang Cheng, is also constantly blaming Wei Wuxian for things so he holds his tongue, brow furrowing deeper as he continues to hold his brother close. ]
Aren't you the one always saying you want to be brothers in the next life? [ Jiang Cheng mutters this in a huff, cheeks coloring as he shrinks into their embrace like a turtle trying to retreat into its shell. He hates these talks. He hates admitting to things that will kill him to remember speaking in the light of day. But Wei Wuxian is upset, and Jiang Cheng is ruffled and defensive, and the words come out in spite of his best efforts to hold them back. ]
I haven't told you off yet, have I? [ Except for all the times he did. But that was all just regular complaining. Wei Wuxian should know the difference. ] And how am I supposed to run this sect without you? Why are you asking? Are you going to run off on me with Lan Wangji?
[ He knows that's not the case, but this is the only way he knows getting around to the point he wants to make. ] Tell him to get fucked. You're my sworn brother first. He can have whatever time is left over if he's good to you.
