I Turn, Um... Uh... Sixteen? For The Tenth? Time???? [open post]

It's Magnus's birthday and he is a man with a surplus of plans. And many, many plastic recorders.

He's still a little overstimulated from the birthday party Galahad got Claudius to throw for the two of them — he loves all his friends, but that was a lot of people in one space, most of whom were also feeling many, many things about their visitors — and so it's been a quiet few days. Sunny is still a little subdued, so they've been having muted hangouts in the mornings; Galahad, also overstimulated from their birthday party, has fortunately been on Magnus's wavelength about just sailing around aimlessly on the Big Banana with many snacks and very little conversation during their daily hangs for the past few days. He drags himself to sword practice with Lancelot once or twice, has his weekly dinner at Hanguang-jun's, spends a great solo afternoon cleaning out Little John's cave in case anyone else wants to use it at some point, and lets Alex tease him into wrestling and, um, other stuff after dinner basically every night.

But on this, the twenty-sixth anniversary of Magnus's actual birth, most of his energy has returned to him. He's made birthday dinner plans with just his immediate family (and also Alex and Hanguang-jun) at their house for the evening. He's had his liveliest morning of the week. And with his newly regained energy he's found critical supplies for his afternoon: a roll of duct tape, several trash bags, eight recorders, a handful of hollow pens, and a dream. He's sitting cross-legged in the middle of the Mansion's lawn, a look of grave concentration on his face, as he makes little holes in a bag, duct tapes two recorders and one pen here and there, and then seals it all up.

And then he takes a deep breath, fits his mouth to the hollow pen, and blows the bag up. When he places it under his arm and squeezes, he's gratified to find that his makeshift bagpipes work perfectly. And he still has supplies for a couple more!



I know everyone is still busy with visitor's day so feel free to take your time on this one... but I would love to ultimately have a ton of Chaos Thread Opportunities.

"Is this a birthday tradition, too?" Lan Wangji asks. It is impossible to tell whether he is or is not joking.

Lan Wangji levels a very, very small frown at him. "And when will the sweet music begin?"

[personal profile] lightbearinglord 2025-01-22 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
"No," Lan Wangji informs him. "The music is bad."

The corner of his mouth quirks, but it is gone so quickly that it would be easy to believe it never happened at all. "Mn. That music."
lightbearinglord: (against the world)

[personal profile] lightbearinglord 2025-01-22 02:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Lan Wangji's surprise appears to be genuine. "I didn't laugh." He thinks he would have noticed, despite how much more common it is for him than it once was.

Lan Wangji isn't certain whether that is true, but he can accept the general truth that laughter comes much, much more readily to him these days. He recalls the hushed shock in Guanyin Temple when he laughed at Wei Ying, as if no one present thought him capable at all. "Perhaps," he allows.

The effect is sincerely unpleasant, and much too loud, especially at close range. Lan Wangji's wince is fairly subtle, at least.
lightbearinglord: (ethereal)

[personal profile] lightbearinglord 2025-01-25 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Lan Wangji, relieved at the exchange of a grating sound for the sound of Magnus' voice, blinks once at him. He glances upward, evaluating the topic in question. "Mild," he offers.
lightbearinglord: (can i help you)

[personal profile] lightbearinglord 2025-01-26 03:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Lan Wangji narrows his eyes, just barely, almost imperceptibly. Something beyond his comprehension is happening. "Mn."

"Later this month," Lan Wangji says, mildly baffled but willing enough to answer a question. "Once Melanippe has progressed further."

"I know," Lan Wangji says, his expression shading slightly fonder. "I have felt your aura."
lightbearinglord: (at peace)

[personal profile] lightbearinglord 2025-01-31 03:29 pm (UTC)(link)
"Everyone does. Yours is very warm."
