    Summary

    Wei Ying knows demons to be pitiful, desperate and self-serving. Understanding and compassion do not fit in the lines that his knowledge had given him.

    He says it with all of the aloofness in the world, stoic and calm as if there isn’t a war raging within Wei Ying.

    “Are you here to sit through Sizhui’s guqin lesson?”

    “N-” He stops because, if he wasn’t here for Sizhui’s lesson then the only explanation for his being there was because he wanted to see Wangji. “Y-Yes.”

    “Please sit then.”

    The demon hunter sits as the demon teaches.

    ----

    Prompt: WWX poses as a demon hunter as that is what his adoptive family, the Jiangs, are, but in reality he's saving them. He does his best to not get attached, but that all changes when he meets LWJ - a peaceful demon who wants nothing more than a quiet place to practice music and study in the same way monks do, despite not being allowed in any shrine.
