....Yeah this isn't very enjoyable. Maybe it would be better if he were good at it, but it's not like he has any practice so how could he be. 

Masozi backs off. 

".....Sorry! Wen Ning, I - I don't think you should think you don't like kissing if you didn't like that, 'cause I'm not a very good kisser?" 

He will go back to snuggling. Snuggling is much easier. 

Yes. Snuggling is nice. He likes snuggling.

Everyone's distracted so maybe he can lick Nie Huaisang's neck a little bit.

Whimper.

"Okay, so, you're on the right track with the jug problem-- it might help to think about it in a more abstract way? You're adding and subtracting threes and fives and you need to get to four."

"Oh! Five plus five is ten! And three plus three is six! And ten minus six is four!!!!"

Delighted wiggle. 

"- I still dunno how you actually do that if you just have the two jugs though." 

"Right-- you've sort of got one five and one three at a time? If that makes sense."

He is following none of this but his Wei Ying is SO smart.

This problem is NOT FAIR to give him when he is DRUNK. 

"...Okay so. Five is one more than four, and three is one less. You...could pour the five into the three and stop once the three was full? ...But that'd still be just five total. Since you'd have the three full and the five with two left. ...Can I get any more materials for this? This is math world so there should be as many materials as I want?" 

"Nope! Only two jugs. You're on the right track, though. So you have your two, what can you do with your two?"

Aaaaaughhh. 

"- I tried to think of it but I couldn't!"

Masozi is pretty sure that he COULD figure it out if he weren't DRUNK, however. 

"...If I fight you and win will you tell me the answer." 

"NO fight Wei Ying!" he says in English, enunciating clearly so he can be understood.

.......Apparently he is missing even more context than he realized? 

Oh no, Lan Wangji doesn't speak English and so he...needs to say things in Mandarin...?

He doesn't actually know the word for 'fight' in Mandarin?

He does know the words for 'learn' and 'work' and 'you'. And so he can....probably say most of an entire sentence, if he includes some miming by lifting his fists? About how he would be delighted to fight anyone including Lan Wangji? 

Lan Wangji has NO idea what is going on! Is Masozi threatening Wei Ying? Lan Wangji will FIGHT him.

Masozi can't threaten anyone if he has been PUNCHED IN THE STOMACH.

........Ooooh a FIGHT! 

Masozi is totally capable of wiggling just far enough out of the way that the obviously-telegraphed punch toward his stomach doesn't hit too hard!

And then he can follow that momentum and twist around and - fling his hand to gouge out Lan Wanjgi's eye no he shouldn't actually kill or disable anyone here they're his FRIENDS He can redirect his hand to the back of Lan Wangji's neck and dig VERY HARD into the pressure point his mother taught him about -

- and then see what happens, he's never actually had an opportunity to try this for real before...

English and Mandarin: "No actually hurting each other! Just fighting!"

Lan Wangji will do what Wei Ying tells him-- owwww that really hurts but Lan Wangji has practiced for years to keep his form no matter how much it hurts-- he's going to grab Masozi and flip him onto the ground--

"I think Masozi's going to win."

"Yeah, probably," he says, because Nie Huaisang is right about everything.

"You are drunk."

"Mhm. Love you."

He wraps his arm around Jiang Cheng's shoulder. "Love you too."

Masozi weighs much less and will totally be flipped! 

- he can try to use that momentum to twist around and dig his toe into Lan Wangji's butt? Which is a move he remembers practicing with his– mother? sister? damn it he can't remember nevermind he can think about that LATER - 

- ok he's definitely flat on his back on the ground which is a vulnerable position and he's GOING TO DIE no he's still with his friends and this is for fun– 

He remembers what his mother taught him, and wriggles under Lan Wangji's weight - no he definitely isn't strong enough to knee him in the groin - but he can probably manage to sneak his arm under and grab/squeeze/tickle him there??
