The New Year arrives and even if there is no way for them to really tell time, just keeping track of days and a few conversations with staff helps them pinpoint when it happens. Not that anyone can tell what the year is, but at least people can welcome the start of a new year in this place.

Care to celebrate the new year? Find a supply of noisemakers or hats in one of the shops and create your own new year traditions. Might as well celebrate the fact that the hotel hasn't tried to mess with anyone lately!

And with the new year also brings January birthdays! Lan Wangji (both of them) are born during this month and so a dining hall has been set up with streamers and decorations. As well as cakes and desserts for everyone to enjoy. A special (slightly boring) meal of fruits and vegetables has been laid out as the day's specialty.

Have another January birthday you want to celebrate? Have another reason to be out and exploring? Feel free to top level with your own ideas and let's have the characters enjoy their time together.

"You're going to do the cooking on your birthday while I sleep? That doesn't seem very fair to you." But they both know that if Wei Wuxian cooked anything it would be a disaster that Lan wangji would not eat.

He does sit up so that the man can shift or adjust his position if he wants to since they have been laying there for quite some time.

"It's fine. I always cook, so I don't mind it. I'll cook your favorites which is pork rib with lotus stew. I'll make it spicy for you."

He got out of bed to go to the kitchen. As he stands at the counter, he brings out the ingredients to get ready to cook which will take two hours to make the soup to boil the ingredients and boiling rice.

"You should be having your favorite food on your birthday, not mine." He smiles as he flops back down on the bed. Since it will be awhile he doesn't see any reason not to take advantage of the warm bed and a nice nap.

"Wei Ying, I eat vegetarian dishes for most of my life. Ever since I married you, I learned to eat meat. And anyway, anything Wei Ying eats, I eat from the same dish."

Food tends to be organized by the plates, meat goes on one plate, vegetables on another, and picks up by chopstick. As Wei Ying can see as Lan Wangji cooks and sets up their dinner on the table.

"Come eat with me, Wei Ying."

He crawls out of bed and waddles over to the table, plopping down at it as he blinks away the sleepiness that entered his eyes as he napped off an on during the cooking process.

"Smells good." Probably looks good to once he can finally focus his eyesight.

He smiles softly. "I always work on perfecting the recipe." Knowing his sister was here previously and long gone, he always tries what is best for his husband. He sits at the table, take a few moments to whisper a prayer of thanks and gratitude, "Wei Ying, let's eat."

Dinner is quiet as he doesn't usually speak during eating, but he always listens if Wei Ying felt like talking during meals.

He stays fairly quiet during dinner but he can't help himself. He still finds things to talk about even if he doesn't expect Lan Wangji to respond to him. He is just too used to talking during meals to just be able to stop. So one sided conversations have become fairly normal. He knows that the other man listens though even if he doesn't always contribute and that is all he cares about.

When he finishes he sets the utensils down and sighs contently. "It tasted good too, Lan Zhan."

He happily listens to whatever is on Wei Ying's mind, whether it's big or small. He does respond, with a nodding of his head or giving counsel, so the conversation isn't quite one-sided.

"Do you enjoy it? I make sure it's quite meaty and hearty and full of flavor." He picks up the plates, bowls, and utensils to wash by the sink.

"Get undressed, it's time for your shower."

"Mm...I enjoyed it a lot."

He pushes himself up and starts to undo his robes, leaving a rail behind him as he goes into the bathroom. But then he remembers that he shouldn't make such a mess since this is Lan Wangji's birthday and he should try to keep things organized. So he comes back out, collecting those pieces and carries them all into the bathroom. Then they become a pile in there as he finishes getting undressed.

He's happy to hear that, that his belly is full. Once he finished his errand, he undresses and puts his robes in the same pile. The man is always neat and tidy, but he never scolds Wei Ying if he forgets.

He comes in with the towels hang on the rack, with his long hair tied up with a shower cap, and joins him in the shower stall.

"Wei Ying, here." He helps him tying up his long hair as well, putting a shower cap over and turns on the hot water to get started.

He wrinkles his nose as he places the shower cap on his head. He has so much hair that it always feels strange when he wears this thing. But at least he won't have to spend all night with wet hair.

He waits for the water to heat up a little before climbing in and under it, leaving room for Lan Wangji to join him.

He laughs softly, knowing he's resisting and fussing. His hair has grown long and becomes difficult to care for it, but he enjoys helping him. The water faucet was turned and the hot water begins to pour.

He joins him and helps him relax by helping wash his body, making a lather, taking pleasure in caring for him. Long ago, he didn't like Wei Ying sharing a spring in the same space as him.

Showering and bathing together has become a pleasant and common occurrence for them. The times when Lan Wangji wouldn't let him be anywhere close to him is a distant memory. He will help to wash the other man, taking turns for them to wash each other.

Once he finishes he leans up and places a kiss on Lan Wangj's cheek. He smiles at him, "You taste clean, Lan Zhan."

When it's his turn, Lan Wangji stood still, allowing him to wash him, and he felt an appreciative pleasure from having his turn. The man loves being clean and tidy, coming from a sect that places utmost importance on cleanliness.

Lan Wangji kisses him back on the cheek. "You too." When the shower is done, he helps dry him up with a towel and helps him puts on his night-robe. "Help you get dressed for bedtime. Put it on."

As soon as the water is off, that wretched hair cover gets yanked off his head and tossed aside. No longer the heavy weight of hair is on his head as it gets to fall down his back again. He pulls on the night robe and feels all wrapped up and cozy in it.

Making sure he isn't going to track any water into the bedroom, he finishes drying off and then also tosses the towel aside before taking Lan Wangji's hand to pull him into the bedroom when he is ready as well.

Lan Wangji dries himself off with a towel, then removes the shower cap to let his long black hair cascading down his shoulders and back. He then puts his nightrobes on and taking his hand, he follows after him.

"Wei Ying? If you're not sleepy, I can tell you more stories or sing to you." To help him to go to sleep.

"Is that all you want to do to me, Lan Zhan?" He looks at him amused. Is the man really going to break his 'everyday is everyday' promise on his birthday? Seems a little hard to believe. But this is Lan Wangji's day and he'll certainly do whatever the man wants on it.

"I don't need to be sleepy. I can fall asleep pretty easily." It's staying asleep that isn't always the easiest. Nightmares are bad but they at least have tempered recently.

Just as amused, Lan Wangji speaks from his heart. "I want everything, Wei Ying. Everything with you."

He'll do everything to make sure he chases away his nightmares with everything he has. But nightmares are like scars, they don't heal or go away easily. Only with time.

"If Wei Ying wants to make love, we can do that."

"I always want that, Lan Zhan. I can never get enough of you." There is no such thing as too much Lan Wangji in his life. Everyday might have been Lan Wangji's rule but it is something Wei Wuxian is happy to embrace. And this is the man's birthday so of course he is going to want to please him in any way that he can.

Everyday is a routine, but Wangji is patient and does think of Wei Ying's needs when he begs three or twice a week for rest. What's important is they have each other and they are together. He smiles softly. He's going to start by undressing his robes and putting them side, and kissing him sweetly on the lips and over his throat, going soft and slow.

"How about gentle and slow, is that all right?"

"Mm...sounds good." He lets that robe fall away and helps Lan Wangji push his own to the floor as well so that he can wrap his arms around him and draw their bodies close.

He always enjoys the feeling of their bodies against each other as Lan Wangji's mouth kisses over his neck. It's easy for his mind to go completely blank when the other man starts doing this.

Seeing Wei Ying naked always gets him excited all the time, but there's a sweet comfort too when he wraps his arms around him for a hug and holds him close. Holding him close, his heart his steady, his mind his clear, and he knows his path. With bodies close, hearts open, and thoughts open.

"Wei Ying, when we married and after that. I think my sole purpose is to live for you and only for you. There can be no other but you." He kisses him. "I love only you."

"I love you, Lan Zhan. There is no one else I'd want to walk side by side with forever."

He can't see a life with anyone else and he doesn't want to ever have to imagine it. He kisses him back and then steps back towards the bed. When it hits the back of his legs he sits down, never letting go of the other man as he draws him down with him.

"Forever then. By your side." He kisses him with a quiet surrender and passion. Only his Wei Ying is in his heart and his mind. He climbs on the bed to curl up with him, keeping him warm and safe.

"Wei Ying, my love, my treasure. Wo ai ni..." He whispered as he kisses him passionately with more longing.

He presses into that kiss, eagerly and with the same passion that he feels from the other man. He tries to keep himself calm, knowing that the plan was to be gentle and loving. He wraps himself around him, holding him tightly. Happy to simply be in the man's arms.
