    Summary

    Lan Xichen turns at the rare endearment, and his eyes soften. He covers the pot with a lid to let the sauce simmer. ”In its all-consuming nature, is love still not kindness above all?”
     
    “Some kindness often lives in love. Some others are often mistaken for it,” he breathes.
     
    “Mistaken how?” Xichen brows furrow, looking at Jiang Cheng with a desperation to understand his thoughts. Hoping that, in turn, he can make the other understand his own.
     
    “Throw a battered soul in front of kindness, and it will rip itself apart trying to bring that soul back to life. This is a weakness of kind people; they cannot leave the one they care for unhealed.”
     
    “Yet, kindness remains, doesn’t it? Affection remains? Is that not what love is—to be with and heal the one you love and let them do the same? Then why do you think they will still leave?” Xichen is all questions; Jiang Cheng wishes he had more answers. He has some.
     
    “Tell me, A-Huan. In this love, once a soul heals, is there any reason left to stay?”

    or

     

    Jiang Cheng believes he exists on the fringes of his own love story; Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji believe he is their north star.

    >>Clark Kent ✓
         @clarkkent Replying to @clarkkent this movie's about me [an edited clip from six years ago from the official Daily Planet account—an interview of Bruce Wayne hosted by Clark Kent himself. Bruce is answering a question Clark asked, even as Clark himself is clearly not paying attention—atleast not to Bruce's answer. When the silence between them lasts four seconds, Clark realises it's his turn to speak with a start. Straightening to his complete height and knocking his head against the bookshelf that was clearly meticulously kept in frame and intended to be aesthetically pleasing. The books he knocks over tumble over his head and towards Bruce, an onslaught he stops by shielding Bruce from it with the bulk of his frame. Bruce is turning a questioning glare at someone offscreen as if demanding assistance]

    Alhaitham comes home late one night exhausted and overworked. Kaveh is there to pick up his pieces.
