[ mal already won the holiday. that smile alone? she won the (chinese new) year, and it literally just started. ]
If you don't want it, you can give it back. [ teasing, she makes a grab for it.
lonnie introduced her to the tradition. mal, always intrigued by art, had been taken by the color of the envelopes, a red brighter than there ever was in the isle. every color, truly, was brighter in auradon. but the school had always been more of a pastel nightmare. northern wei, by contrast, was bold, captivating—a fitting home for someone as fierce as lonnie.
she forgot about the envelopes until she saw a classmate including them in her class project. mal painted and decorated it herself: chinese dragons flying above a tranquil lotus pond. with immense care, she copied wei wuxian’s name at the top using traditional characters. calligraphy eludes her so she used her own hand. the task wasn’t to be perfect; he has certainly seen enough to know she is far from it. but she knows how much she misses auradon, and only desired to bring a little piece of his home to him.
