Meanwhile, in Garlemald...
Who: Nice/Jiāng Wěi & Wreck/Láng Yìchén
What: Meeting up to discuss things
When: Evening before the masquerade for the Moonlit Rivals Story
Where: The inn in neutral territory
Content warnings: It's them, so... you know. Currently none, will update as needed.
It was significantly easier to meet up with Jiāng Wěi before Láng Yìchén became a werewolf. When he was human, hardly a soul batted an eye at a human spending time with a vampire. People generally thought he would eventually become Jiāng Wěi's snack, and if not, they thought Jiāng Wěi would turn Láng Yìchén into a vampire.
And to be fair, that had been the plan. But Jiāng Wěi's clan, while less strict than the Umbra clan, had hoops to jump through when it came to turning humans. Even so, plans had existed... until Jiāng Wěi had business to attend outside of Montica. When he returned, it was too late; Láng Yìchén was a werewolf.
There were cures, of course, but it's hard to get your hands on a cure for lycanthropy when the person who bit you basically held you hostage until the next full moon came. Ultimately, Láng Yìchén figured it was his 'punishment' for hanging around a vampire too much. Thought maybe a werewolf had noticed and wanted to make an irreversible dig against a vampire. It was easy enough to believe since the whole situation had essentially been a bite and run.
Tonight, although he has a home of his own, he's booked a room at the inn. He's been waiting in it for a few hours, mostly because it would have been more obvious than it already is what he was doing if Jiāng Wěi arrived at the same time. He expects Jiāng Wěi to be here soon, though, and despite everything, he's excited to finally have an opportunity to talk privately with him. It feels like they've only spent a handful of hours together over the past few months.
...He does hope Jiāng Wěi shows up. Láng Yìchén hadn't really considered until this moment that Jiāng Wěi very well might not show up at all.

[ That pout? Láng Yìchén finds it absolutely adorable. He wasn't expecting an actual gift, though, so his eyes light up a bit when he sees it. Gently, he takes the decorated box from Jiāng Wěi. ]
Can I open it now?

[ Inside he'll find a mask for the ball. One that matches the one Jiāng Wěi got for himself. He could have just given him the mask, but Jiāng Wěi wanted to be a little more extra with his actions. ]
no subject
I can't believe it! The masks were all sold out by the time I got there, and then I forgot all about needing one! It's beautiful.... You put a lot of thought into both the mask itself and the presentation, didn't you...? Thank you....

Well? How do I look? Think I can pass for human again if I'm surrounded by all kinds of scents?

He reached out to gently stroke his cheek. ]
Why, I think you look handsome and mysterious enough that I might even ask you to dance.

[ His voice is light as he leans in to kiss him sweetly. It's short and it's brief, but it's filled with what might feel like an eternity's worth of love. ]

I love you so much, Jiāng Wěi. I always will. I don't... ever want you to forget that, or for it to slip your mind even once....
no subject
I love you too... I would do anything for you...
no subject
I know you would. There isn't a doubt in my mind about that.
[ But he doesn't want to have to ask Jiāng Wěi to do anything extreme. Ever. Even suggesting they leave Montica seems... too much to ask. ]
