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.

"This." he points to the paper with a neatly scribbled note to himself and then to the talisman, scratching his head.

"It produces coldness, but is it enough? I'm cold but I get colder easily, and you're used to the Cold Springs."

If anyone would be the expert on cold temperatures, it would have to be his husband. And who else could translate his notes well enough for input as well?

notifs please

Even as Wangji takes the writing to review, he murmurs, "more cold than comfort. More cold than the cold spring. Cold enough to actually give frostbite to those without golden core without protection."

Cultivation regulates the body allowing those progressing to be shielded from the whim of the elements. Heat or cold mattered much less to him than to many, and the two newly arrived cultivators probably less than to him - except heat, but that is a specific circumstance.

"Support ice and snow."

Then Wangji focuses on the writing, brows scrunching a tiny bit just in a couple of places.

One of his hands moves to wrap around Wei Ying's fingers even as he keeps reading.

Seriously

He furrows his brow, scrunching his face as Wangji speaks. More cold than comfort and enough to cause frostbite? That is cold. He nods then with a sigh, lacing his fingers around Wangji's.

"Right, so.. freezing then, not just cold."

Another sigh, a headshake this time knowing he definitely doesn't have it too cold yet.

"It won't be cold enough yet. Is there something that you see that would work different in there?"
