Listen, I bet it would kill Wei Wuxian if Jiang Cheng started to treat him like a teenager xD
Mo Xuanyu died young, so from the pov of Sandu Sengshou, a venerable man in his late thirties, he's a kid. A lad. A baby. Acting like a kid ever since JC knew him, no better than Jin Ling at his most teenage.
And JC is so tired. He's busy, and stressed, and tired.
So there comes one day during some sort conference in Gusu, when WWX is being his usual trolling self with the juniors, and they happen to stumble loudly into Sect Leader Jiang. WWX stutters a bit, taken by surprise, and JC, actually in an important conversation with his second, just kinda autopilots at the sight of Young People Group and goes "Not now, A-Xian," in his most tired Dad Voice, and carries on.
Wei Wuxian stares after him, speechless. It's like Jiang Fengmian came back from the dead for all of five seconds to kick him in the feels. It doesn't feel right. Did JC just dad-voice him?!? Outrageous!!
Thus Wei Wuxian cracks up being an annoying ass to take revenge. Unfortunately, JC noticed that the Dad Voice works to stump WWX and starts using it almost exclusively. It's amazing, he didn't have this much fun in ages. Revenge tastes sweet. He doesn't even have to get angry, just channel his dad for a few moments and Wei Wuxian puffs up like a balloon. It's great. The Disappointed Sigh? The Tired Side-eye? The Smile of Dismissal? Each works to perfection. Even better - Lan Fucking Wangji can't even tell him to fuck off, since JC isn't doing anything evil or angry this time.
After a few days of the conference, Lan Qiren shows up in JC's doorstep asking for pointers.
