[ Adjudication. Five's mouth hangs open as it slowly becomes evident that he's asking him for punishment. Sought him out immediately, just to make peace for unsuccessfully trying to kill him. Who does that?
Worse is that he can feel that he's sincere, after months of getting used to that little shard of cursed glass inside him that picks up on his flavor of anguish. And it's absolutely baffling. They aren't friendly. As many times as they've worked towards a common goal, there are enough excuses to why he would have wanted Five gone that he wouldn't have wondered. That was something he could almost relate to. Then to turn around... just hours ago Five would have been happy to eliminate him as a threat without any great burden on his conscience.
That he hadn't meant to attack him has bigger implications. He hovers there, between wanting to ask what it was really about and suggesting something disproportionate that he can do to make it up to him. Both options give him a headache. What little sleep he got hadn't been enough. ]
I need coffee. [ He doesn't have the energy to blink directly into the kitchen, or he might have. Besides that, he doesn't really want to take his eye off of Lan Wangji after all the mixed signals he's been giving. ] ...If you're bleeding, try not to get it on the floor. I just cleaned up that spot.
