Probably? [Momo sounds a little doubtful, because if he's only saying "probably" it sounds like he doesn't know the extent of his own skills. Still, he can maybe work with this.]
Well, how do you usually treat him? If we want it to be realistic it's best to play off that, otherwise he might mistake your advances for something else entirely...
[Like a bad joke, as in the obligatory misunderstanding scene in every romantic comedy anime ever.]
[Ah yes, the old "heckle them into giving you attention" method. Momo's sage nod would be a lot more helpful if this wasn't just a voice call.]
So you're looking for ways to really grab his attention. At the same time, he's used to you doing unexpected things...you know, you've mentioned he's kind of wallflowery like my darling, but have you tried taking him out somewhere more his own speed? Something quiet and refined. Put that attention back onto him and see how he reacts.
So...I should take him to a library? Or drink tea with him?
[can you hear his excitement, momo? ...or complete lack thereof.
although, it -is- the last thing that lan zhan would see coming. and wei wuxian doesn't want to be a selfish lover, which is a real danger given how indulgent the witch has become.]
[Momo sure can hear it, and he does laugh quietly at it, but he takes a moment to explain his logic.]
You can combine it with something else if you'll struggle with an outing like that, but it's good to be able to pace yourself to your partner sometimes. I'm sure he's happy to see you happy, but sometimes quiet types need their quiet too, you know? Support his interests. You could also try doing some new things here that maybe you didn't have the chance to try together back home.
[He'd suggest going to a performance if the theatre industry here wasn't still dead in the water.]

[it's easy to assume that he's an ice king when he's just really good at hiding what he truly feels. and he truly feels a lot.]
Normally I - annoy him? But in a very affectionate way!

I'll do it! I'll try anything for Lan Zhan!
