[Since she's already 'glanced' him before, she doesn't hesitate as much to touch him now, helping him up and brushing the snow from him.]

You-- Oh. [She looks surprised and like she's not sure what to do with that information at first.] I don't think anyone's ever told me they missed me before. [What an odd feeling.]

But you should be inside where it's warm. [A pause, because she realizes he's inside somewhere warm now, but--] I mean. Not wandering around in the snow like this. I'm used to being lonely, you don't have to worry about me.

Yah! No one should get used to being alone! It's an awful feeling and you don't deserve that kind of feeling in your life, Lady Yuri.

[wei wuxian takes both her hands in his, holds her hands tightly in his as he looks at her seriously.]

A little cold won't hurt. I'm Wei Wuxian! There's little that can hurt or scare me, and snow doesn't scare me!

Ah, but... do you have anything we can drink? Let's talk about things, how have you been, what have you been up to? Have you been well? Is anyone bothering you? If anyone's tried to hurt you I'll beat them up!

[Wei Wuxian is as chatty ever and Yuri is silent in the wake of the barrage of questions, watching him carefully. Her gaze drops to their clasped hands and, after a moment, she pulls one away and turns the other to lace her fingers together with his, calm and comforting. 'I'm here.'

She turns and tugs him towards the bed since he's managed to come in through the bedroom window and that's the closest place to sit.]

I have wine. I'll get some for in a minute. [She's been keeping some now in case Xue Yang drops by again.]

What's happened? [Because the questions and sudden desire to see her seems more like he's trying to avoid something and get a distraction than just about seeing her.]

Nothing happened!

[ wei wuxian's exclamation is forcefully cheerful, bordering on aggressive. he doesn't really want to think about it, how lan zhan had-- no, that's not going to be brought up now! focus on lady yuri!

which is what wei wuxian is doing, as he brings up her hand to his mouth and kisses the top of her knuckles. ]

I should have brought us something to eat too... ah! I can cook for us! Or put something together? What do you like, Lady Yuri?

[She looks at him for a long moment, clearly not believing that. But-- But if he's not going to tell her... She looks down at their hands, flushing a little at the kiss.] ...Alright.

[Sure. If he says so.]

Whatever you need, I'll be here. [Even if that need is to feed her potentially dangerously spicy food. Thankfully, her kitchen doesn't have terrible levels of hot spices, so it...might be fine. Ish.]

I didn't know you could cook.

Of course I can cook!

[ wei wuxian puts on the appearance of someone who's offended, but quickly drops it in exchange for a bright smile. it doesn't quite reach his eyes yet, but it's getting there. with their hands still joined wei wuxian drags them both towards the kitchen, finally letting go to putter about the area, pulling this and that out of the cupboards and fridge.

it's stir-fry. of what, that remains to be seen. there's some chicken, some carrots, some greens... no rice, hm, this is a problem-- AH! POTATOES! and peppers! ]

Let's chop these up!
