    Summary

    At first, there was no response. Only the chirping birds outside and the kettle from downstairs made any noise, until—

    “Baba?”

    Xichen jumped at the voice, relief quickly flooding his body. He searched around, saying, “oh, thank the gods, you’re okay! Don’t ever—”

    He cut himself off, again, when he realized the voice didn’t come from beside him; but above him.

    Which— shouldn’t be possible. They didn’t have an attic. So then how the heck—

    “...A-Li, baobei,” Xichen put his hands together, feeling oddly numb, “are you in the ceiling?”

    Jingyi giggled, “ye-e-es! I found a secret tunnel! Baba, baba! There’s fluffy pink clouds in the walls!”

    Xichen’s mind blanked for a solid five seconds. There was no brain, only panic.

    Or, Jingyi explores where he isn't supposed to. Xichen has a panicked crisis.
