WHEN: Rest of Jan
WHAT: Sizhui arrives and family reunion
WHERE: around Gazin
WARNINGS: None atm, he's a good cloudson

I. Arrival
Sizhui woke up on a bed in the inn at the sound of the morning's rooster crow. The last thing he remembered is traveling from town to town and rest in an inn before heading back home on his trek to Cloud recess.

He woke up and after looking around, he discovered the small town of Gazin. He was greeted and asked the townspeople as he travels through the streets, eying the shops, and eventually looking for anything to eat as he hasn't eaten for a long while until when he heads back to the inn, he helps himself to the meat pies unable to help it if he could.

It was snowing everywhere, and there's a festive mood in the air. He was informed it was Yuletide, and he found hot food sell in the marketplace from the vendors. In the evening, he can see the bonfires being lit up, and he plays the games and was offered ale which is hard for his taste when he took a sip.

At the end of the day, it feels a little lonely without the company of the juniors, but the ale made him sleepy so he cozies up toward the fireplace in the inn.

II. Bonfires
Being a curious youth, Sizhui heads out in the evening, and bravely venture outside the town limits of Gazin, where the fires of the bonfires roars and crackles. It felt lonely without his juniors, but he participate in the games, taking in the warmth of the food and good company, or play around the hot springs to keep warm.

Later at night, before bedtime, he'll join in the feasts at the inn, however the custom of gift-giving isn't something he is used to.

It's closing to the inn that Wangji spots him, and stops to blink for an instant before calling out softly.

"Sizhui."

Sizhui is a good boy! Maybe he got tipsy from the ale, which he took a sip. A tattlesign is his flushed cheeks.

Hearing his name from the man who raised him as his father and train him closely, he smiles and makes a bow.

"Hanguang-Jun!" He is very relieved that he's no longer alone as he couldn't find his fellow juniors. "You're here as well?"

... duckling, why.

Then again, they are very far away from home. Wangji sighs silently, expression soft as he comes closer, ready to steady him.

"When?"

When did he arrive.

He's curious to try new things!

Sizhui lived and trained with him long enough, so he's used to his father's mannerisms and way of raising him. "Yesterday. I was looking for the juniors everywhere, but couldn't find them."

It's not every day Wuxian has had a free day lately, having been doing odd jobs to make money for food and lodgings, even if Wangji could do that himself. He's too stubborn and wants to help out since this isn't the Cloud Recesses.

Today happens to be a free day for him, and what else does he see? A bright white-robed man! But it takes him a moment to register that's not Xingchen or Wangji, but in fact Sizhui. He saunters over with a bright smile on his face, elated to see one of his juniors there.

"Sizhui! When did you get here?"

Sizhui is a bit tipsy from drinking ale. He shouldn't have done that, but it was a taste test. With a bit of a surprise, he cups his hands and bows.

"S-senior Wei!" He smiles back. "It's good to see you!"

Wuxian eyes the drink, knowing that smell isn't non-alcoholic and in fact an ale he's come to enjoy drinking in his time here. Even though it couldn't compare to his favourite. With a smirk, he bows back and immediately hugs the boy.

"Does Lan Zhan know you're drinking and clearly taking after me now? Tsk tsk that's not very Lan-like! I'd expect that of Jingyi but not you!"

There are reasons why some of them are prohibited, but Wangji will not enforce things at this time. Not unless it becomes a problem. Though some of the rules may be less avoidable.

For now, he shakes his head. "Not here. Currently." That may change at any time. "Me, Wei Ying. Be careful of Xue Yang. The two daozhangs.

"You found your way to learn the language?" The druid is not difficult to find, but Wangji wants to ascertain.

He smiles bashfully in his presence and the moment he stands upright, he hugs his senior so tightly. He misses him so much.

"No, he does not know. But I'm glad you're here."

"I see. And yes, I met him and he helped me." Though he understands him and Wei Wuxian in their own home language.

"Xue Yang? The daozhangs? In this world? How? I haven't met them yet." But he'll do his best to listen to his father's instructions, he's an obedient child.

The moment he's hugged, Wuxian hugs even tighter, relieved that he's not imagining the boy here. He's missed him fiercely and it's showing in that tight hug.

"Don't worry, I won't tell! When did you arrive?"

"Mn. This place, people come here after wishing they were somewhere else. Most people wish that some time or another. Anyone can come."

It is a dangerous place, that way, and outside of predictable control, but then again - what about life was not outside predictable control?

Still, Wangji leads the way into the inn to order food for their son.

"I will ask that you avoid Xue Yang at all costs. The daozhangs are as they are, and they at this time trust him. I do not."

Not with this precious person right here.

He wants to cling to him so hard, tighten his arms around him, and then releases, all smiles.

"This morning. It's a strange world."
