I tripped and I fell and this HP AU came out
So I was chatting to @silverink58 about the beautiful original picture of Professor LWJ, and they were saying that when they picked up the prompt for the inktober exchange, they were hoping to read Hogwarts student!LWJ,
And I thought “oh how delightful, maybe I’ll think about that idea later”, and then that “later” became “now” and what I’m saying is they shouldn’t have let me download the google docs app onto my phone, because I clearly cannot be trusted.
@silverink58 this is for you, lol. Thanks for naming “Little Apple” :’D.
He almost doesn’t see it: a flutter of black fabric, the edge of a student robe before it slips away out of sight. But he catches the movement from the corner of his eye, and pure reflex has Lan Zhan drawing his wand to fire off a quick body-bind curse.
There’s a muffled noise of surprise, abruptly cut off, and then the thump of a body hitting the floor.
When Lan Zhan turns the corner, it’s to the sight of Wei Wuxian, lying face-down on the ground.
“It’s after curfew,” Lan Zhan says, turning him over with a quick Levitation spell. “You should be inside your dormitory.”
Dark eyes glare indignantly up at him. Calmly holding Wei Wuxian’s gaze, Lan Zhan lifts the curse.
“Report for detention tomorrow,” he says, as Wei Wuxian sits up and pointedly rubs the small pink spot on his forehead.
“Lan Zhaaaan,” Wei Wuxian complains, giving the edge of Lan Zhan’s robe a beseeching tug. Lan Zhan feels his own lips thin at the over-familiarity of both the form of address and the physical contact.
“Don’t be like that! Let me off just this once? Think of the five wonderful years we’ve spent together as potions partners!”
“Just last week, you exploded our cauldron,” Lan Zhan reminds him flatly, and Wei Wuxian grins.
“Oh come on! Let’s not harp on about petty things like that,” he says, pushing himself up onto his feet. He shakes out his robes. “You wanted to know what would happen if we added the xiezhi horn, too, just admit it.”
Lan Zhan doesn’t dignify this with a response, and simply meets Wei Wuxian’s gaze and holds it.
He would never admit to such a thing.
