That's a fair reaction though HONESTLY!! Wei Wuxian's anti-bear mask is always in place to some degree because he's always dealing with kids to some degree, but there's a definite visible crease of worry at his brow.]
It's not unheard of. Kids think up some pretty strange things in those little heads, you know? [KIDS ARE FUCKIN WEIRD. He'd like to hope they aren't also wizards who can see into the future though, even if hearing that sure did rile his anxious paranoia something fierce.]

Not a problem. I'm glad to help in any way that I can, you know? I won't be able to rest easily again until we have this mess sorted.
[He's going to literally just vibrate straight out of his skin in anxious paranoid energy if they don't find any leads soon GOD. Anyway, since he comes over to hang with Bennett, he'll just wave and part with:]
