In Love's name and for Love's sake, I assert that I will employ the Art which is its gift in Love's service alone, rejecting all other usages.
I will spread joy and ease pain. I will fight to preserve what loves and rejoices well in its own way, and I will change no object or creature unless its joy and love, or that of the system of which it is part, are threatened.
To these ends, in the practice of my Art, I will put aside despair for hope, and hatred for love, when it is right to do so-- Until Universe's end.

Of course he'd say yes, and then he'd ask if there was anything else Wen Ning wanted, if there was anything he was curious about and wanted to touch...
He would-- and maybe he would find what he asked him for amusing, but he wouldn't say no or laugh at him. He could kiss him or touch him or--
(He's close. It's been more than five minutes, but not that much more.)
It's maybe unrealistic to imagine that Wei Wuxian might want him.
But it's not unrealistic at all to imagine that Wei Wuxian might be kind.
He might not want him but-- kindness is enough. He'll take kindness and whatever Wei Wuxian would be willing to give to anyone.
(He wants so much, it's hard to even picture it.)
There's this picture here, though, to help him picture it, a picture of Wei Wuxian smiling at him and looking at him with desire--
It's very nice of him to take that picture, so everyone who finds it can see him looking at them like that, like he's so happy and wants them so much.
Orgasm hits him hard. It doesn't feel that physically different, but it's different in his head. He feels relaxed but also like he did the emotional equivalent of trying to run a four minute mile.

Driving a Manual spell
Manual // Spells // Driving a Manual
This family of spells aids you in pleasuring yourself and other people by touching their dicks, cunts, asses, or other more exotic arrangements.
Unerring Intuition: Active. If you know that someone intends to have sex with you, you can cast this spell to gain an intuitive sense of in what way they like their dick, cunt, ass, etc to be touched.
This is followed by some more words in the Speech.
You have leveled up! You have five unallocated stat points.
He's braced for the purple boxes this time.
This would be a very useful spell, if he ever had occasion to use it.
...he could increase his chance to use it by increasing his SED. He probably shouldn't put all of his points into it yet, he should leave some for WIZ-- except the sooner he levels WIZ, the sooner he faces the ordeal.
He grabs a penny. Heads, he splits his points between WIZ and SED; tails, he just puts it into SED.
It lands in heads.
He puts three points in SED and 2 in WIZ.
So he's actually going to have to go into work today. As a wizard. Who has seen one of his co-workers naked.
If anyone asks why Wen Qing called in sick for him... He's going to say she was worried he was concussed. That seems like a reasonable explanation, and hopefully people won't question why he is back after a day.
He gets dressed, eats a breakfast of several granola bars, and leaves early to drop one of the cakes off at Wen Qing's apartment, before heading in to Wen Corp.
It's probably unfair to describe Lan Wangji as "terrifyingly competent". He's definitely competent; the terrifying might just be a Wen Ning thing.
"H-hi."
Lan Wangji actually just said words to him! Technically he asked for this! Aaaaaaaa.
He holds out the tupperware container. "I made a cake. W-would you like some?" Look at him, socialising like some sort of successful person.
One piece down, seven to go.
Lan Wangji is so blank faced that he has no idea how he feels about this cake. Presumably Seasoning hasn't lead him astray, but he has no clue. (He never has any clue with Lan Wangji.)
Now he stands silently without any sort of plate, crumb-covered or otherwise.
Cool! Cool. "I'll, uh, see you round?"
And he very calmly flees to the kitchen. (Lan Wangji is like talking to a brick wall that might be angry with you.) He puts up a post it note sign next to the cake: "Some cake to brighten your day. Feel free to take a slice."
Lan Wangji presumably has some business in the kitchen because he follows Wen Ning there.
There's lots of reasons he might be in the kitchen. Maybe he's making himself a cup of tea or something (and definitely not following him.)
Wen Ning is a master of neutral facial expressions-- or, well, slightly panicked facial expressions. But Wei Wuxian has no way to know it's because he has recently seen him naked or, uh, done anything with this information. "Hi, there is some cake."
