[Well that's concerning. He narrows his eyes and feels one of his hands curling into a fist. A moment later, he switches to voice.]

Zewu-jun. I'm watching over her. [He can't say she's fine because she's really not.]

It's the stress. [And the betrayal, he doesn't add. That seems to have hit her much harder than him. He barely has it in himself to be anything but irritated on his own behalf, but after what this has done to Gwen, anger with Itachi has begun to simmer in his veins.] I'm not leaving her, Zewu-jun. I'm going to make sure she's okay.

[there is no answer for a while and xichen does not trust himself to speak, to use his voice when he hears wei wuxian switch to audio.

the first half barely registers.] How did it happen? [there, reading it back the anger and dizziness he feels does not morph the words into something else.]

G̵̱̋o̸̥̰̐̀o̵͍͘d̶̪̖͙͑̂̑. [No.]

Good. Do not leave her. [there.]

[He frowns but sticks to text.]

Our prison stay. We were not harmed but it took a toll. I won't leave her, Zewu-jun. Gwen is a friend to me. [And Zewu-jun of all people will know how far he will go for his friends.]

How about you? Are you doing alright?

[calmness]

I trust you to ensure her safety. [hopefully, this friendship will not end with as poor of consequences as the other he encouraged involving a wei wuxian that was even younger than he is now.

he does not answer for a while, has to take out his earpiece to not send an agitated 'i am perfectly fine' at the other.] Please focus on Gwen's well-being. And your own.

[the avoiding the answer thing is not only a card wangji plays.]

[If Zewu-jun thinks he can distract him from his question with that sidestep, he really has no idea that Wei Wuxian mastered that move when he was a child. But Zewu-jun is right about one thing and it's that he should focus on Gwen. He has neither the time or the patience to break through that Lan stubbornness, and all in all, he finds he lacks the motivation as well.]

I will then. And I hope Zewu-jun will take his own advice and focus on himself as well.

Please reach out if you require assistance with anything. I'll be taking my leave now.

[calmness]

The same to you, Master Wei. I am also here if you are in need of anything. [he doubts that either of them will reach out, for now but he will likely keep an eye out for the other man.

brotherly duty is a thing that runs deep, after all.]
