Episode 1: Birth Names

"YOU DRANK AN ENTIRE EMPEROR'S SMILE, RIGHT IN FRONT OF LAN-ER-GONGZI?" Nie Huaisang screeched

"Shhh yelling is forbidden remember," Jiang Cheng reminded.

"Bold coming from your anger issues." Wei Wuxian chuckled only to get elbowed to the side.

Wei Wuxian let out a sound of pain before straightening up and stroking an invisible goatee. "Violence is prohibited."

to which both Jiang Cheng and Nie Huaisang let out a snort followed by laughter. It was cut short, due to a certain white robed cultivator passing by.
The two younger ones immediately composed themselves and started walking properly, while Wei Wuxian greeted him with a bright smile.

"Hii Lan-Er-Gongzi!! Ahh, it's such a mouthful. Can i just call you Lan Zhan?"

Jiang Cheng choked a little, passing a look to Nie Huaisang, who did the same.

Lan Wangji's response to this was giving him a glare. "Frivolous." he said

"That doesn't sound like a 'no' Lan Zhann," he said with a smile that could be heard in his voice, Lan Wangji didn't comment any further and just walked away.

"Wait, he actually didn't say no... Hah! I'll call him Lan Zhan then!!" Wei Wuxian excitedly thought aloud.

"What are you doing?? Are you trying to get kicked out??" Jiang Cheng questioned

Whilst Nie Huaisang gaped and said, "Wei-Gongzi is so cool!!"

Wei Wuxian let out a chuckle and started walking back towards the guest rooms, while telling Nie Huaisang all about the adventures back at Lotus Pier, meanwhile Jiang Cheng corrected him everytime he exaggerated something beyond recognition

The sun had just risen a few hours ago, the birds were chirping, the air was cold, It was right before lessons, Lan Zhan would normally arrive early but for some reason his brother said to get there later than usual, and talk to him.

"Brother, you look very happy," Lan Xichen said with a smile

Lan Zhan gripped the sword hilt on his waist a little.

"Is it because of that Wei-Gongzi?" he said, raising an eyebrow, to which Lan Zhan gave him a blank stare and clamped harder on the sword, which answered his question.

"He is quite talented, isn't he? I heard you both were equal last night, oh! I know, I can convince uncle to let you supervise him during his punishment. Then you might be able to become friends first!" He said enthusiastically.

"First?" He raised an eyebrow, Lan Zhan was about to pop a blood vessel in his hand from clutching his sword so hard

Lan Xichen gave a look of panic that only Lan Zhan could interpret,
"Ahahaha, you have to be friends first before becoming... bestfriends!"
he awkwardly let out

Lan Zhan gave him a concerned look before walking with him towards the studyrooms, lectures had almost started after all.

He got to the entrance and noticed the one and only empty seat is... beside.... Wei Ying...
He looked at his brother who had long since gone to the front of the classroom, from where he followed his younger brother's gaze to the seat, after he understood, he met his eyes again before smiling and giving a wink.

"..."
'Great,' Lan Zhan thought, 'my brother thinks I like this nuisance or something... I don't... yea no.'

He reluctantly walked towards the seat, his golden eyes landed Wei Ying, he was leaning over the table his face resting on his palm and his elbow on the table, his dark brown locks were messily tied up into a high ponytail, with a red ribbon, said ponytail was lazily falling down his shoulder, and his eyes were half lidded as if about to fall asleep, 'cute...' The Lan thought to himself
