[There's a lot that the two of them could talk about. A lot left unsaid, questions left unasked and unanswered. The weight of Wei Wuxian's life and death hang over them both like a shroud, but Huaisang had already made it clear that he has no interest in punishing him for his past.
And he's always been able to talk to Huaisang as a friend, about girls and porn and all the stupid things that mattered to them before the war. If Huaisang has no desire to live in the past, then Wei Wuxian sees no reason to treat him as anything but the friend he always was.
Also he just really needs to yell at someone who will understand why he's so thrilled.]
I discovered showers. Have you taken a shower? Nie-xiong, please take a shower, it's wonderful. They have some sort of piping system that filters water into the rooms at all times and the water is heated. I'm not sure how it works or where the water comes from but Nie-xiong, showers.
Not to mention, think about all of the different activities one might accomplish while in a shower instead of a bath tub. Extremely convenient, am I right?
[It feels a little foolish to fall back on such topics given the state he'd left their world in, but even if it's been a long time since they were boys reading spring books in secret at the Cloud Recesses, it feels...nice to play into that old part of himself again.]
Ah, ah, Wei-xiong! You truly are an unparalleled genius! Indeed, the convenience proves superior.
[ it isn't as if he can't guess — it's a shred of normalcy, one that he's more than willing to give wei wuxian, if it helps him. it's not a hardship... but slowly, he thinks back to the last decade and knows a camaraderie like this has not been found there. after da-ge's death, he had been well and truly alone... and even this, now, is built on wei wuxian not knowing anything of his future.
[A gentle smile steals over his face. He's grateful for the indulgence, even if Huaisang must surely understand what he's doing.]
Have you discovered any other conveniences yet since your arrival? There are so many things to understand, I don't even know where to start. Where are you staying? Later we should meet. I'll show you where I'm staying in case you ever need to look for me.

Wei-xiong! I can't believe it took you this long to tell me! Ahhhh, I've wasted so much time when I could have been enjoying a hot shower instead...
I'm going to go take another one!
