Text: un Wei Wuxian [1 day before everything goes down]

[singlelogbridge]

[He might not know what's going down or when, but he knows something is coming, probably sooner rather than later. He knows where most of his friends are and how they're preparing, but there's one he hasn't spoken to yet, and so—]

tell me you're holed up somewhere with a sturdy door keeping yourself safe?

[eschewings]

[ he can't help but be touched that wei wuxian is actually checking up on him — it's sweet, and also exactly what he needs. as long as both wei wuxian and xichen-ge believe he needs to be hidden away from all battlefields, he's doing his job right. ]

Well, I'm not sure how sturdy the university doors are, but I think they'll hold in an emergency!

[ he figures the university is the last place anyone will fight in, so might as well stay at his office there. ]

[singlelogbridge]

[Breathing a sigh of relief.]

good! I'm sending you a present, alright? Use it in an emergency!

[eschewings]

A present, I love presents! Thank you, Wei-xiong.

[ going to just.... pretend it's a nice, cute present and nothing to do with a potential fight. thanks. ]

〈 keep pretending that. because wherever he is, a portal roughly the size of a pumpkin opens near him. gwen peers through it. 〉

Perfect, I found you. Think fast!

〈 —and she throws a care package courtesy of wei wuxian at nie huaisang.

in it, he will find a stack of different talismans all with hastily jotted down instruction sheets. the talismans included are silence, fire, invisibility, disguise: random, and forgettable. on top of them all is a messy note that reads "stay safe, nie-xiong!", accompanied by a scribble of stick figure wei wuxian grinning.

gwen peaces out; the portal closes. 〉

[eschewings]

Ah —

[ he, of course, manages just that before the package smacks him squarely in the face. she didn't really think he'd have the reflexes to catch it, did she...

just as the portal is closing, he yells, ]

Thank you, both you and Wei-xiong! I got you a present as well, Gwen, I'll give it to you soon!
