WHO: Lan Wangji and anyone who might be curious about magical workings / wants to help
WHEN: June
WHAT: Trying to build an array, or a set of talismans, to keep a house very, very cold
WHERE: Gazin
WARNINGS: Possibly none, will edit as necessary
Wangji might be a little focused after the new arrival sets out to the familiar cold of the mountains. He spends a lot of time around the house that Wen Kexing has chosen. Anyone magically sensitive can feel his spiritual energy examining the place, trying some things.
He also draws trial patterns in small scale, working through various parts of the problem.
And he might be spending time gathering odd ingredients, especially herbs that run to the cold, different minerals and such - some from the market, some from the alchemist's shop, some gathered on his own.
Wei Wuxian knows what he's doing to begin with, because of course he does, but anyone curious as to what he is doing is free to ask.

"We appreciate your help, Hanguang-Jun." he smiles sweetly, "The place we originally called home was surrounded by snow all year round." and they had eaten the snow to keep their immortality. Without the ice, Zishu fears they might be tempted to eat normal food again - and thus undo the spell.
"If this place can be cold enough to support snow, that's all we need."

"Mn. Two parts. Separate from the heat, lower temperature. Then simplify, lower the energy to maintain."
A problem seems too large at first, but then if it gets broken down to smaller parts, each of those, or most of those, might be possible to solve, or to use previous solutions to.
"Protective barrier as basis for separation, modified."
Wangji has been told that cold means life, and he supports the choice. Besides... it gives both him and Wei Ying something to focus on which will increase their knowledge, and Wangji likes that.
