    Sarah
    Does anyone have the number for Shane's girl from Boston? I feel bad that they've been seeing each other for this long and we've never added her here.

    Jackie
    Oh good point! Let me ask Hayden.

    Jackie has added Lily to the conversation

    Or: Ilya Rozanov is, apparently, one of the girls.

    Summary

    Five years after Wei Wuxian’s death, some people woke in the Cloud Recesses—young again, back at the lectures.

    One came to stay. One came to change the end. And a third was already waiting.

    None of them spoke of the past. But it was already unraveling.

    Summary

    “Would you mind telling me how long it’s been?” Lan Zhan asks.

    The client meets his gaze. “Um… I— Is it relevant?” he says. “For— for you to do the job, I mean.”

    Lan Zhan doesn’t answer him, not immediately; for a moment, he watches the man squirm. He really wants to believe he’s not being scammed, not just because it would save him a ton of paperwork or because it wouldn’t be the first time — people seeking a cleaning job that is easier to explain and get away with, but then balking at the price and refusing to pay it, since it’s not just a clean up service —, but because this feels, still, a little weird.

    He doesn’t seem to be lying, but Lan Zhan doesn’t think he’s getting the full truth.

    So, he gives him a half-truth too, “Yes.”

    “Um,” he repeats. “I’d say it’s been a few days. Three. Maybe five.”

    Lan Zhan nods. He puts down his bag, starting to set up his things.

    Summary

    Five years later, the world had moved on. But not Lan Zhan. He carried his grief quietly. Privately. This little grief was all he had left from Wei Ying. If he let it go, then the memory of Wei Ying would eventually fade away. He would forget that face, that laughter. So, Lan Zhan held on to his grief as tightly as possible. And as the years went on, he realised that what he lost wasn't just his friend or his love. He had lost his soulmate.

    A wound as such would never heal.
