Hi beautiful people,

How is seclusion treating you for those who are?

Not proofread because the author just wants to write and care about nothing close to spelling so I am apologising in advance.

Enjoy!



General Pov.

Wei Wuxian wakes up with a start, searching around him for the strange man only to fall face to face with a worried-looking young man. Realizing the god of the moon is lucid, the man scowls at him hitting him over his head.

"Ouch! Cheng gege, why so mean to me?"

"Why am I mean? You almost get yourself drained by a demon from the underworld! Fucking idiotic airhead moon god!" As the man speaks, Wei Wuxian notices he is covered by a second outer robe made of indigo and violet fabric.

"Jiang Cheng! Lower your voice, please." A feminine voice orders him.

"Mind your own business, Wen Qing!" Jiang Cheng barks at the woman who doesn't let herself be disturbed by his hostility.

Running behind her is a young teenage boy who is carrying a lackered box composed of two handles. As he was climbing the small stairs leading up to Wei Wuxian's bed, he stumbles almost cracking his head against the marbled floor if Jiang Cheng and Wen Qing didn't catch him in time.

"Wen Ning!"

"A-Ning!" Wei Wuxian and Wen Qing call out under the surprise.

The aforementioned boy chuckles awkwardly but it died instantly when he sees Jiang Cheng scowling at him. Letting a small frightened squeak, he goes to hide next to Wen Qing who shoots a dirty stare to Jiang Cheng who shrugs.

"What? I didn't say anything!" He defends himself when her stare turns harsher.

"As if you don't know!" Then choosing to ignore the infuriated man, she turns her full attention to Wei Wuxian who is watching them curiously. "Let me examine you, A-Xian."

As she speaks, Wen Qing takes her medical box opening a small drawer to pull out a crimson velvet pouch. The god of the moon's eyes widens when he sees it, scouting closer to Jiang Cheng, he hides behind the other's indigo clad arm. 

"Wei Wuxian! Stop acting like a child, you are a god for heaven's sake!" Jiang Cheng scolds him but he does nothing to free himself instead he appears to glare at an abnormally long needle Wen Qing pulls out from the pouch.

"Jiang Cheng! Wei Wuxian! Stop acting like little heavenly fairies, both of you are gods! Time to show it, step aside Jiang Cheng!" She orders.

"Can't I have just a golden pill or anything else, please?" Wei Wuxian begs her, still not letting go of Jiang Cheng's arm.

The latter tries to free himself but one look into those silver eyes, makes him hesitated.

"A golden pill..." He starts to convince the woman who glares at him.

"I am surprised to see that the god of water suddenly becomes the god of medicine." Wen Qing says with sarcasm. "And no, Wei Wuxian! I can't give you medicine if I can't examine you...so stop acting like a human baby and let me do my job!"

Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian pull from each other looking contrite. 

With a small amused chuckle, Wen Qing sits on the bed next to Wei Wuxian who is glancing fearfully at the thin-looking needle. As the needle gets closer to his fair skin, the male omega closes his eyes tightly and lets a tiny whimper escaped him when the needle breaches his skin.
