Anybody who says they understand what longing is without understanding Lan Wangji’s pining has not truly understood it for me.
.
Whenever I think of Wangji in his isolated years, alone and heartbroken, my heart weeps for his pain. (Especially while listening to Wu Ji)
.
I wanted him on the roof because that is where Wangji and Wei Ying properly meet for the first time. I feel the roof interactions of the Cloud Recesses symbolise the beginning, the separation and the happy end for them. And the moon was there to witness it all 🥺

(I listened to all MDZS tracks while making this and I truly felt like I was living in it :’]
