first of all, this is very funny and you know i enjoy lan wangji and wen ning joining forces behind wei wuxian's back. second of all, isn't it curious how often wei wuxian and wen ning lean into this joke? we know wei wuxian dislikes being called "the yiling patriarch" and considers "the ghost general" moniker ill-fitting and stupid; we know wen ning is uncomfortable with it when lan sizhui notices and switches to a different address. yet with each other, they are willing to reference or roleplay their "characters"? me & you when society dehumanizes us and casts us to play monstrous caricatures of ourselves in their morality tale about hubris and karmic punishment, and we can't escape the narrative or prove them wrong, so we might as well commit to the bit.

The moment he realized it was Hua Cheng, he stopped struggling.
