"Are they really?" Jingyi asks feeling a heavy weight in his stomach. Their friend has no luck at all when it comes to trusting people. If the first person he fell in love with turns out to be using him, this really might ruin him for life. It is hard to say just how bad the spiral might go.
He looks up when he hears rapid footsteps as someone approaches the gazebo quickly. "Jin Ling?"
Their friend freezes with his foot on the step leading up to the platform. He's breathing heavily and pale, clutching a bottle of liquor. Seeing his friends, he'd normally smile and eagerly go sit with them, but he looks tempted to turn and run the opposite direction.

A quiet brush of qin strings reach Yuan's ear as he's passing by a courtyard. It's on the side away from the water, but underneath an open area where the moon was easy to see. In the center of the path, almost radiating with a peaceful light is the Chief Cultivator Lan Wangji.
The chords begin to flow into a loving, calming melody. For someone who also knows this instrument, there is irony in the song itself due to the calming nature and notes but also it takes remarkably challenging skill needed to play it.
