Wei Wuxian gets over here and puts his head on Jiang Cheng's shoulder. "Does that mean we can't make out."

"Not that kind of brother."

Masozi has not been invited to join in snuggles and he doesn't really feel like he has permission to do so, or ask about it. He's their friend, sort of, but he's not their brother. Also Wei Wuxian keeps getting distracted from giving him more math problems, and he's sad about this. 

...He's going to retrieve the bottle from next to sleeping Lan Wangji, and chug as much of it as he can in one go. It makes him sputter a bit, which is definitely why his eyes are suddenly watering, it's certainly not because he has an emotion. 

"Zaizai, a-Ning! Get over here! Cuddle pile."

Aaaaaaaa.

...He is going to sit a respectful half an inch away from Nie Huaisang.

Nie Huaisang puts his legs on Wen Ning's lap.

Cuddles! Masozi is so happy to be included! He bounces with joy, and then goes over and leans on Wei Wuxian. He feels very floppy and relaxed and warm, and his head is kind of spinning now but it's not unpleasant, exactly, just weird. 

Hopefully no one will try to kiss him? He's not sure he really wants there to be any kissing even when he's drunk. 

"Wen Ning is boring when he's drunk. He acts exactly the same."

"I'm sorry."

"Are you having a good time?" Masozi asks Wen Ning - again, asking in English and forgetting that Wen Ning doesn't speak it. 

After Wei Wuxian translates, Wen Ning says, "yes, I am?" in a questioning tone.

"Good! Are you less scared of people when you're drunk? You don't have to be scared of people, we're not mals, but I guess it's probably not that easy, just deciding not to be." 

If Masozi were sober, he would probably have considered for five seconds whether this was a good idea to say out loud, and decided against. He is, however, not sober, and not running a filter at ALL. 

"I don't know," he says. "I think so?"

"I'm glad!" Masozi beams at him. "I want to give you a hug, can I give you a hug?" 

"Yes. I'd like a hug."

Nie Huaisang removes his legs from Wen Ning's lap.

Masozi will give him a hug! ...A very gentle one, so he's not being scary. "M'glad I know you," he says, slightly slurred. 

Future Wen Ning is going to be suspicious of this because as far as he knows all he's done around Masozi is not talk. Present Wen Ning, however, says, "I'm glad I know you too."

"I'm horny. Is anyone else horny? a-Ying, make out with me."

"Pushy bottom," Wei Ying says, but lies down next to Nie Huaisang and starts to kiss him in Jiang Cheng's lap. (His legs are near Masozi.)

Mmm. Wei Ying's lips are soft and he's a really good kisser. He kisses like he's paying attention, which is probably the only thing he manages to pay attention to that involves neither corpses nor algebra.

This is a really nice visual that is happening in his lap.

Oh no now NOBODY is talking to him about math! 

...Oh well. Masozi can talk to himself about math. "I wonder how many kisses people've had in the Scholomance. I bet I could guess with street fighting math. So it's existed for...two hundred years? And there are a thousand new students each year - there are more than that but I'm going to make it easier. Jiang Cheng, how many of the students do you think kiss people while they're in school?" 

Jiang Cheng is busy being a place where kissing is happening but he does manage to say, "everyone kiss before graduation I think."

"Okay so how many people have kissed is easy, that's just two hundred thousand. But I don't wanna know that, I want know how many kisses. ....Jiang Cheng, how many times in a week do you kiss someone?"
