"That is... terrifying. Maybe I should tell Lan Xichen about this - he will probably know in a few days anyway, I suppose - fuck. To what end - I guess we wouldn't know."

"If we ever find out it won't be until next year at the earliest."

"Well. It is good to know what happened, anyway, even if it is not why."

Maybe he will tell Lan Xichen. It'd be bothering him about something he'd learn in a few days anyway... but he can't help feeling like this is the kind of thing you want to know as soon as possible.
