Yanli stirred the chilaquiles sauce on the stovetop. She checked the oven and pulled out the homemade chips and added them to the sauce. She knew Wuxian loved spicy, so she'd made sure to add a generous helping of spice to the sauce. She'd definitely gotten carried away with cooking, but she hadn't seen her brother in almost three weeks now. She considered it her duty to spoil him. This was why for a simple two person brunch she'd covered her dining room table with plates and plates of food. Wuxian would be appreciative and if he didn't eat it all, Zixuan could later. She plated the last dish and went into the bedroom, hoping to put away some clean laundry before her brother arrived. Now that she and Zixuan had lived there for a while, the closet was starting to fill up. She liked to blame Zixuan because most of his clothes required hanging and due to his height, she just pretended they took up more space. She didn't mind using the dresser though. She brought her folded pants to the dresser and opened the top drawer, full. She didn't want to put them in with her undergarments so she skipped the second drawer and opened the bottom one. She squeaked, shutting it quickly. She had completely forgotten about the "sexapades" that she and Zixuan had endured when they'd first moved in. They'd gotten rid of everything else, but this was just a forbidden and forgotten drawer. She wondered if she could asked Wuxian to deal with it. Wei Wuxian

Wuxian was excited to get to see Yanli today. Due to conflicting schedules it had been nearly a month since they last saw each other, and he missed his big sister. He parked the car and headed up to her apartment, already able to smell the foods from a flight down. He knocked on the door excitedly, anxious to see what delicious meal she had made for him.

Yanli perked up at the knock on the door. "A-xian!" she said, throwing her arms around him as soon as she opened the door. She squeezed him tight with a big smile on her face, "come in, come in," she said, noticing one of her neighbors peeking from their door. She had no desire to deal with them today.
She dragged Wuxian by the hand to the table, "I may have made a little too much, but it's been so long since I've seen you and cooked for you that I couldn't help myself." She grabbed him some iced coffee she'd made and brought it to him at the table before sitting across from him.

Wuxian let his sister lead him into the apartment and he looked around. "Wow, jiejie, I haven't seen this place since you moved in. You really seemed to have made it a ho-wow that's a lot of food." He said, his eyes frozen on the full dining table. He grinned, "Good thing I came hungry!" He looked over the dishes already on the table, surprised at the sheer variety of foods. He thanked her as he was handed an iced coffee and sipped on it as he looked at what was on the stove. "Oh, chequila." He said, laughing at himself a bit; he knew that wasn't the right name, but it was the closest to come to mind and he'd only had the food once before (but recalled ranting to Yanli about how good it was, so he was touched she remembered enough to make it for him).
He took another sip of the iced coffee before examining it, returning to the table and sitting back in the seat across from Yanli. "Where'd you get this coffee from? It's delicious."

Yanli was just happy to have Axian in her home. He was right, she and Zixuan had been turning it into a home and she wanted to share that with her family. "You can't disappear on me like that. I moved in here months and months ago, how can you only come visit your jie now?"
She encouraged him to eat with a smile, "they're called chilaquiles and I made them extra spicy just for you." She pointed to the red things on the table, "anything spicy you'll have to eat or take home, Zixuan and I would die if we ate anything that spicy."
"Oh, the coffee?" Yanli got up and grabbed the coffee, showing it to him, "you can take this home, I bought it so I could make you something. Zixuan and I don't drink coffee." She sat back down, feeling her cheeks flush a little as she realized how normal it was becoming for her to say "Zixuan and I" as if they were a package deal.

"I'm sorry jiejie, I was busy with school!" Wuxian protested. "And anytime I wasn't busy, you were..." He continued, pouting.
He a little of each food and piled it onto his plate until he had no space left. "I can do that. Though I'll need to warn Lan Zhan not to eat any of it." He said with a fond chuckle. Not that Wangji would touch his food without his permission, but he figured a warning would probably be good anyway.
He mumbled a thank you at being handed the coffee, but was distracted from examining it. He narrowed his eyes as Yanli giggled, motioning at her with his chopsticks. "What's this? Don't tell me you actually like the peacock now?"

"I'm sorry Axian, my work schedule can be really crazy. Mondays and Tuesdays are the best for me," Yanli said, taking her chopsticks and piling a bit more food onto his plate.
"Why do you have to call him that? Where did you even get that name? He's not a peacock," Yanli scolded gently. "What do you mean about actually liking him now? I've never not liked him."
"And hold up, don't come for me and my giggle about Zixuan when you've got that look on your face and I heard that warm chuckle for who now? Lan Zhan? Who's that?" She caught Wuxian's chopsticks with her own in order to point at him.

Wuxian sighed, "And Mondays and Tuesdays are my busiest days because of labs. Stupid labs. They're pointless but required." He grumbled. He let out a laugh as Yanli piled more onto his plate, "jie, I'll add more after I eat this. Calm down." He said softly.
He blinked at her innocently, "doesn't he remind you of a peacock? They're overly fancy and pretentious, just like him." He finished confidently. He took a bite of his food, brightening up. "Wow, this is really good."
"What look?" He asked through a mouthful of food, "Lan Zhan's my roommate." He tried, knowing she wouldn't let him leave it at that.

"Okay, well that "peacock" as you call him, spent an entire week looking for the perfect coffee for you for this brunch. He knew he wouldn't be here and wouldn't get to see your reaction, but he wanted you to feel welcomed in our home." Yanli changed her voice into a sarcastic, dramatic one and put a hand to her forehead, "but he's so pretentious."
"Backup, your roommate? You have a crush on your roommate? Tell me about him." She put her chin in her hands, waiting excitedly.

Wuxian looked to his sister with wide eyes. "Jin Zixuan did.... what? For real?" He asked incredulously. He mentally swore to himself, this feeling was familiar. In the past, he had jumped to conclusions about Zixuan too, which theoretically should have told him to be more open-minded this time around, but in his defense, he hated Zixuan before he got his memories. The memories just exacerbated those feelings. He looked at the coffee properly, realizing it was a fairly expensive, though not haughtily expensive, brand and type of coffee he'd been wanting to try for a long time.
"What?" He asked, feeling his face heat up. "You back up. When did I say I have a crush on him?" He protested. "He's nice, I guess. Quiet, reserved, shy, doesn't talk much. Very studious. I mean what do you want to know? We're complete opposites."

"Yes, for real. He's not as bad as you two, you in particular, make him out to be. He really wants to get along with you both, because he knows you're important to me." Yanli said as she finally started adding things to her own plate.
"I'm your sister, I know you. You told me you had a crush on him when you said his name," she grinned. "You said it so gently, and carefully. Plus, when do you not love to see unsuspecting people eat your too spicy food and suffer?"

Wuxian furrowed his eyebrows, examining the bag as he tried to think of what to say. After a few moments silence, he set the bag aside so he could focus on his food and muttered, "Well... Tell him thanks... And I guess the next time I see him I'll try to be nice."
"Now that's unfair." He groaned. "You couldn't seriously tell just by me saying his name!" He whined, before belatedly realizing that was basically a confirmation he did, in fact, have a crush. He shoveled food into his mouth, trying to think of a response to get her off the subject.

"Thank you," Yanli reached out for her brother's hand. "It means a lot to me."
"Now what were you just saying? Something about the way you saying his name not conveying feelings? How did you pick someone so opposite to you?" she laughed.

"'Cause we're soulmates." Wuxian blurted out before he could stop it, deciding to shovel more food into his mouth to shut himself up. "This isn't fair. There's something wrong with this food." He complained around a mouthful of food, lifting his plate as if examining the food. "There's some sort of truth spell on it or something." He rambled, hoping distracting himself would stop his face from being so red. He knew he had to be blushing, there was no way he wasn't.

"No truth serum, just a sister's love," Yanli said. She was surprised by Wuxian's answer but wanted to give it the attention it deserved.
"Why do you say you're soulmates? What is a soulmate to you, Axian?" she asked.
