"I really don't care what you have to say, Wen Chao."  He yawns as thought bored and turns his face away from Wen Chao, closing his eyes as though preparing to sleep.

You're not allowed to sleep in the middle of an interrogation!  Why is Wei Wuxian so bad at doing anything correctly?  He will be slapped and shaken and yelled at.

Permalink

Wen Chao is so bad at interrogation, it's kinda hilarious.  In the interest of getting him even more riled up, Wei Wuxian will respond to the shaking and slapping and yelling by faking incredibly loud snoring.

Permalink

His attempts to rile up Wen Chao have succeeded.  The reward for this is having to deal with an angry Wen Chao.  

It's better than being interrogated by Wen Xu, but still hurts quite a lot.  Wen Chao doesn't seem to be actively looking for information out of him.  While he isn't using anything other than his fists and occasionally his boots, those are more than enough to reopen all of the cuts he'd received earlier.

Permalink

Angry Wen Chao focused on hurting him is not hurting anyone else, clearly this is much better than the alternative.  Wei Wuxian gives up on standing up and waits for Wen Chao to finish hitting him.

Permalink

"I don't suppose you'll be willing to admit that the Qishan Wen are superior?"

Permalink

"And tell a lie? Why would I do that?"

Permalink

Wen Chao's hands are tight on Wei Wuxian's arms, twisting them painfully.  The angle is especially painful when his arms are holding his weight.  It is tearing open the existing cuts, causing fresh rivulets of blood to soak into his ruined robe.  

"Given how everything is your fault, because of your disobedience and vocal disrespect of the Wen Clan, it would mean so much if you were to denounce your old foolishness and admit that you were wrong.  Unless you'd like this to continue?"

Permalink

"Do your worst!"
It's obvious from his voice and face that he is in extreme pain, and barely keeping from crying from the pain.

Permalink

The fun thing about that question is that Wen Chao likes both possible results.  He can continue smacking around Wei Wuxian until he stops being interesting.

Permalink

Wei Wuxian can groan pitifully and let himself get slapped around,  at this point.

Permalink

Jiang Cheng can no longer stand still and keep watching this.  He starts shouting insults towards Wen Chao.  Perhaps he can draw some of the attention off of Wei Wuxian?

Permalink

His shouting at least draws Wangji's attention, who is finally startled awake. Being is conscious is terrible and quite painful and he would prefer to stop, except that really is a lot of yelling and he should figure out if it's something important...

Lan Wangji opens his eyes and sees Jiang Cheng, who is yelling, and - Wei Ying, who is getting beaten to death -

He lunges forward with enough force to make the chains ring, but they hold fast. "Wei Ying -"

Permalink

Oh no Lan Zhan and Jiang Cheng are both drawing attention to themselves now, one of them is going to draw Wen Chao's attention, he needs to keep Wen Chao focused on him-

"What, is this the best you can do, you pathetic Wen dog?"

He does his best to spit this at Wen Chao, though his best is rather poor.

Permalink

He is still standing near Wei Wuxian, though his head was turned towards the sudden movement elsewhere.  

"Silence!" Wen Chao delivers an especially hard blow to Wei Wuxian, then proceeds to glare at Jiang Cheng.  How strange.  The Jiang heir had been actually quite obedient up until now.  

Permalink

Wei Wuxian gets thrown back into the wall by the punch, his head hitting it.  He falls silent and unconscious.

Permalink

PANIC

Permalink

Yes Panic.  It is time for Jiang Cheng to start shouting insults more frantically.  He can't do anything else from this wall.

Why.  Why can't Wei Wuxian stay quiet for five minutes.

Jiang Cheng is just going to have to shout louder.  

Wen Chao is a disgrace, even to the cesspit he calls a clan.  He wouldn't have believed it before coming here, but the Nightless City is almost as ugly as Wen Chao.  Are they that incompetent at building, or are they trying to honor their horrible visages?  And their ancestors, which were clearly a bunch of toads.

Permalink

This does in fact get Wen Chao's attention.  Also anger.  

Jiang Cheng can be beaten in turn.  

Permalink

That's alarming and terrible but Wangji isn't going to be able to out-insult Jiang Cheng so he has no way to intervene - also Wei Ying might be DEAD -

He resumes yanking against his chains. He'll keep pulling until the chains break or his wrist does, whichever gets him free faster. "Wei Ying. Wake up."

Permalink

"Wen Chao! Watch yourself! The Wen Clan will have no allies left if you murder the inner heir disciples in you custody!"

Permalink

All he's doing is hitting them.  If they die it's their own fault for being such bad cultivators.  

Besides, Wei Wuxian isn't an heir to anything.  

He keeps punching Jiang Cheng for a while, until he stops shouting.  Then Jin Zixuan can be kicked a few times for his backtalk.  This can keep going on until all four of them are quiet.  

Permalink

Lan Wangji will be quiet if Wen Chao gets Wei Ying a doctor.

Permalink

"Which one of us is currently chained up, hmm?  And which of us is currently in charge?"

Wen Chao will get a doctor for his prisoner when he wants to.  It's not a bad idea - he will in fact get scolded by someone who actually matters if even the servant's son dies in here - but now he needs to spend another minute on Lan Wangji so he knows that he isn't to be ordered around.

Eventually he leaves.  He doesn't promise to send a doctor, no matter what Lan Wangji insists as he goes.  His own guards are too busy with the more important job of protecting him, so he finds a guard outside to go fetch Wen Qing for them.  

Permalink

Ow.

He doesn't even know if that was successful; it genuinely would be a bad idea for Wen Chao to let Wei Wuxian die, but Wangji doesn't trust Wen Chao to understand that.

He watches Wei Ying and convinces himself that he can see his chest rise and fall.
