    Summary

    The eerie notes sent a shiver down Lan Wangji’s spine that was equal parts shudder and joy as his qi recognized the sound as uncanny and his heart recognized it as Wei Ying.
    Lan Wangji baited the tendrils, letting them get close to him and then spinning away, out of reach and slashing enough of them with his blade or keep them angry. Or hungry, as Wei Wuxian had suggested.
    It was good to fight alongside Wei Ying like this again. So good. Not even with his brother did Lan Wangji feel this sort of seamless partnership in which the two of them became something more than the sum of both of them. He and Xiongzhang were too much alike, he supposed, in their thinking and their methods, where Wei Ying’s quick, mercurial improvisation complimented Lan Wangji’s decisive precision perfectly.
    He had missed Wei Ying so much.
    A dark wisp brushed his hand, sending a shiver up his arm, and he struck it away before it could coalesce.

    ----

    Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji fight a lake monster and are forced to confront the things that they keep deeply buried.
