Character(s)/Ship(s): Wei Ying | Wei Wuxian, Lan Qiren
Rating/Warnings: Gen
Summary: Qiren found something that he still couldn't bring himself to ignore about his youngest nephew's husband.
Author's Notes: Post Canon.
~~~~
For all intents and purposes, Lan Qiren was content to ignore the loud creature that was Wei Wuxian and the messes that he sometimes created either intended or unintended within the Sect or outside of its borders. He had long managed to forgive the boy for accidentally stealing the heart of his youngest nephew.
Now the only thing that he seems to find annoyingly hard to forgive are the ink stains that Wuxian sometimes leaves on any papers that he’s forced to write for his Night Hunts and proposed ideas for new talismans that the Sect might find useful or more often than not to be found somewhere on his person.
Sometimes mostly his face.
He laments that he is the one, instead of Wangji as was his right as husband to their resident mischief maker, to find him in the library as he discovers his nephew’s husband halfway to sleep at his chosen desk with papers piled messily around him as he works quietly on a new talisman. There are a few new stains on his nose and cheeks that the boy seems oblivious to the existence of.
Sighing, he pulls a handkerchief out from his sleeve, startles the younger man as he kneels down beside him, and gently wipes at the mess, ignoring the soft protests. He also chooses to ignore the surprised expression aimed at him as Wuxian falls silent.
“Shush, now. How you can be this unaware of the mess is beyond me, boy. Let me do this, then we’ll join our family at dinner.”
Irritating ink stains or otherwise, he finds that he wonders why Wuxian is still so surprised that beyond Wangji there would be anyone in the Clan, himself included, that would choose to share even some small amount of care towards him.
