有时他感觉自己像纸片人一样，只有被邪术赋予了生命。他只是原来灵魂的一小部分，被塞进了新的身体里。

但蓝湛摸了摸他的时候，魏婴想也许他们都是这样的。可能所有人都是一样，灵魂跟身体，突然在一起，努力变得更多。

不只两人望月，思故乡。

Summary: Sometimes he feels like a little shape cut carelessly out of paper, animated by a bit of blood and a lot of dark magic.
Author's Notes: This is basically the same drabble as above, just in English as a "thank you" to ranalore. :) Because of the word count it was easier to rewrite than to translate.

Sometimes he feels like a little shape cut carelessly out of paper, animated by a bit of blood and a lot of dark magic. These days he's just a tiny piece of his own soul stuffed into a new body.

But then Lan Zhan touches him, and Wei Ying thinks maybe they're all the same. Maybe everyone feels like this, a soul suddenly trying to figure out a body, or a body trying to figure out a soul, both striving to become something more.

Maybe they're always two parts of a whole, staring at the moon and missing their home.
