I. Queen's Games For all his mischief, Wei Wuxian is a fiercely competitive sort, and hey, if participating gives the semblance of good behavior, he won't complain for scoring a few points in favor of keeping his husband happy.
A - is for Archery And how could he refuse an archery competition? Even without his core, he'd bested every clan blindfolded in the past, and he can't resist a chance to show off a little. He can be found doing just that, at the archery range, taking up space and taking shots that are anything but ordinary; the man won't even fire just one arrow at a time, unless he's doing so backward, sideways, or otherwise hindered to make the shot more difficult.
B. Diving He'd volunteered for diving, on a whim. It might not be his specialty, but he swims like a fish, and he's never struggled with acrobatics, and it's kind of like that, right? He's not entirely sure what the judging rubric will be, but he can be found doing everything from boisterous cannonballs to backflips from the diving board.
C - is for Croquet His attempts at Croquet are beginner at best. Wei Wuxian still isn't entirely sure how one is supposed to hold the mallet, or what the point of the game actually is, but he doesn't seem to care so much, he's just thwacking the heavy croquet balls around the field. You may want to watch your head.
D. - is for Fight Club? Maybe it's cheating a little to try the tea marked Angelic Strength before jumping into some underground fighting matches, but he can't find it in him to be too bothered about it. He spends most of his early matches dodging anyway, testing out the limits of this tea's power. Just how strong was an angel anyway? Didn't they fit in the same category as nymphs and faeries and the like?
Either way, he didn't want to accidentally hurt anyone because his power got out of control, he'd had more than enough of that for two lifetimes. So he's cautious at first, at least until he's certain he won't accidentally punch holes through anyone, or throw them through walls.
III. Indulgence A - Spa Day He doesn't mean to end up in the spa for more than just a few minutes. But with all the activities going on, he can't help being curious about the offerings. His cracked rib has been a constant bother, but he's shocked to find their healing massage actually works, and he feels better than ever after a single session.
Before he leaves, one of the staff is quick to suggest some hangover cures, and he has to wonder if he's getting a bit of a reputation. Nevermind the knowing looks and whispered conversations about just how much the residents of the hotel feel, before handing him a variety of oils. He and Lan Zhan might stop in every so often for just that, but listening to the staff go on about all the added effects these oils have is enough to make even Wei Wuxian get a bit red in the face. He takes them, all the same, and hurries back to his room.
Feel free to run into him as he tries to smuggle the goods up to his room, or perhaps after, trying to cool off in the pool when he's popped a couple of the bottles open just to see if they work.
B - Party time Wei Wuxian can't remember the last time he'd heard about so many parties and private celebrations and yes, he absolutely wants to go try the wines, even if he's bored to tears by the poetry, and finds himself much more at home with the croquet party-goers, leaving him to wonder if they all just use the sport as an excuse to meet up and plan out their evenings, because it seems much more exciting than the stuff old game. He has enough sense to at least text his soon-to-be husband with his location, but if he wanders a bit from the party itself after trying one too many homebrewed drinks and teas, it's hardly his fault.
