closed post: factory reset

Once Shen Yuan is back in his¹ body again, one of the first things he does is look for Sagramore. Unfortunately, it seems like the Mansion is hellbent on exhausting him.² It's not like Sagramore is gone; he's at Enjolras and Grantaire's meeting, and he sees him from afar a couple times, talking with other residents, but someone else always catches Shen Yuan for long enough that by the time he's done talking with them Sagramore has vanished again. And when he has time to look, Sagramore is in none of his usual haunts. He even spends an afternoon lingering hopefully by the stables, only to catch, in sequence, Tress (nice, but not intended), and some redheaded teen in skull paint (???) who he hurries away from because he is not in the mood for all that.

Binghe, too, is pleased to have him returned to this form, despite all his assurances that he likes him in whatever body, so that's also pretty thoroughly distracting.

He misses just being able to text someone, like, hey, meet me in the cafe in fifteen for the biggest hug either of us have gotten in our lives.

Finally he wrestles his embarrassment enough and slips a note under Sagramore's door that reads, miss you bro :/, and then has a little drawing of his head and Sagramore's dog-knight head, both of them smiling and chatting. He posts up in their usual AA meeting lounge with a book. Maybe the Mansion will let Sagramore find him.

¹ Well, you know.
² Definitely nothing to do with a certain typist not having any time.
