Wei Ying slides down with her. She peers over Lan Zhan's shoulder, sees that the dog has collapsed, sees Lan Zhan's bloody arm, and hisses a sharp intake of breath. 

"Lan Zhan? Are--are you alright?"

She clutches her heroine and shuffles away from the dog.

"Mm." Yes, she's fine. She closes her eyes and concentrates on breathing evenly. The pain will pass. The pain will pass.

Permalink

Wei Ying snuggles her helplessly. "Your arm?"

Permalink

Headshake. It's fine. She's fine.

This legitimately isn't the most pain she's found herself in this past week, it's just -- a lot. All at once. It may take her some time to meditate past this, but she knows she can do it.

A soft voice whispers from the door. "Wei-guniang?"

Permalink

"--Wen Ning?" 

Wei Ying crawls towards the door, tugging Lan Zhan with her. 

Permalink

A little slot opens further at the base of the door and Wen Ning peers through. "Wen-guniang! I'm s- sorry, I meant to, to get here faster... oh no, is, is Lan-er guniang..."

Lan-er guniang is Completely Fine. (Being tugged aggravates multiple of her injuries, but it's completely worth it to have Wei Ying's hands on her like this. Honestly 10/10 would get mauled by a monsterdog again.)

"I think that horrible thing bit her. And I think her leg already had something wrong with it."

Permalink

Oh no! She really was too late :(

"I'm sorry! Yeah, I, I heard that... well, I. I brought some medicine, anyway, it should help. If she's bleeding a lot, you should tie something, tie something around the wound. We, can use my robes if you're already cold." Wen Ning pokes a little pouch of medicinal herbs through the slot.

"Thank you so much," Wei Ying says gratefully. She tears off a strip of bloody fabric from Lan Zhan's already-ruined sleeve and ties it around her bicep and applies medicinal herbs. "Is the dog dead?"

Permalink

"No, it's only sleeping. I used th-hree needles, if you removed them the dog would wake up. But they'll, definitely last overnight, I'm sure. I'm sorry I couldn't bring more..."

Permalink

"You did what you could. Lan Zhan would definitely have gotten more badly hurt if you hadn't come. Thank you so much." She snuggles her armful of Lan Zhan and peers at the wound with concern. 

Permalink

(W o w. Snuggling.... good. This is actually a great day.

All the other days she was tortured she did not get any Wei Ying snuggles.)

Permalink

Nervous nodding. "I'm, still sorry though. Are you hurt, too, Wei-guniang?"

Permalink

"No. Lan Zhan was really brave, she protected me from that horrible creature." 

Permalink

"That's good! At least you're still okay. I felt really bad when I heard what happened to, Cloud Recesses... Jie didn't say much about it but I know she feels bad too. I'm, I'm sorry, Lan-er guniang."

Permalink

Permalink

"I'm sorry too. I wish I had come with you when you left the Unclean Realm."

Permalink

Permalink

"Is. Is Zewu-jun, okay?"

Permalink

Permalink

Yeah sorry she'll. She'll stop talking about that. Sorry.

Permalink

HUG. 

"If there isn't enough to rebuild you can come to Lotus Pier," she offers. "I know it's not--your home, or anything, but--"

Permalink

She closes her eyes.
