[ The way Jake seems to instantly deflate, catching himself against the bed in relief, goes further to show just how worried he'd been. Maybe it was projection, maybe it was recognizing what he, himself would like to do in some fantasy version of events where consequences didn't exist, or maybe he's just glad that Wei Wuxian had it in him to smile at him so directly.
Maybe it was relief in the hope that, someday, the low laying tension between them would be so found it may as well not exist. ]
