    Summary

    While recovering from being injured on the front lines of the war, Jiang Cheng is given an amulet that is supposed to bring him luck and love. Nie Huaisang recognizes it, and is prompted to make a confession.

    (Inspired by marriage mechanics in Skyrim and there are a handful of other easter eggs, but you don't have to be familiar with the game to enjoy the fic.)

    Summary

    Jiang Cheng finds himself in an arranged wedding with Nie Huaisang, a man he doesn't know. After being told to take good care of Nie Mingjue's didi, he is left to his own devices in a corner of the Unclean Realm. 'Taking good care of', as Jiang Cheng deduces, equals 'not being seen at all'. But is that really true?

    Summary

    “Come on, I’ve been instructed to keep you company,” Jiang Wanyin said.

    “Instructed?” Nie Huaisang feigned hurt. Of course, he’d expect his brother to intimidate others into being his friend.

    -------

    Nie Mingjue not-so-subtly sets Nie Huaisang on a date.

    Summary

    There were many things Nie Huaisang was thankful he had.

    One of them was definitely his brother. 

    Da-ge had been the one constant in his life for as long as he could remember. He was rough around the edges, he had a temper, but Huaisang never once doubted his devotion and loyalty. There were few people he would even consider trusting as much as his brother. 

    But maybe there was one other person that he did.

    Summary

    The kiss placed on the corner of his mouth scared him. Niè Huáisāng gave him many of such kisses and already stopped blushing like an idiot whenever it happened, but this one was different. It was not as light, not as short, there was something very wrong with it, something desperate, not sweet - instinctively he grabbed Niè Huáisāng’s sleeve...

    Summary

    "It's not fair"

    Huaisang's hands paused, barely noticeable, as they smoothed down his elaborate robes in front of the mirror. "Life is rarely fair, Jiang Wanyin", he answered, proud that there was no hitch in his voice, no crack in his mask, no chip in his armour.

    Summary

    Huaisang, for all his love of music and poetry, couldn’t even begin to describe what hearing those words sounded like.

    “I’m not going to get all sappy, but…I do. I love you.”

    Like the finest sweets imported from a distant land, concoctions of flavors unfamiliar and yet intoxicating all at once?

    “I…you. It’s always been me and you, left behind while my brother went off to do god knows what with god knows who. And I’ve known how you see me for a long time, I’m not blind, and one thing led to another and. Well.”

    Like the first dip into cool waters on the hottest day of the year, gloriously refreshing and impossible to recreate?

    “I figured out who you are behind that mask a long time ago, by the way. I’ve seen the way you talk to everyone but me – you’re not that hard to read, you know.”

    No. No, indeed – there was no prose or poetry that could explain this.

    or, Nie Huaisang thinks the absolute world of Jiang Cheng, and if he would only be honest for once, he might find that Jiang Cheng thinks just as much of him.

    Summary

    Nie Mingjue hadn't meant to hurt his brother, hadn't meant to burn all his things. He had threatened it before of course, but he never would have done it. Not to Huaisang, he only pushed him to do better to protect him, he never wanted to hurt him.

    (But he did).

    OR, Huaisang runs to the one place he feels safe when his brother loses his temper.

    Summary

    Jin Ling wouldn’t stop crying.
    Jiang Cheng tried everything: he rocked him, begged, showed him the Muppets, and sang him a lullaby, but his nephew kept crying.
    And Jiang Cheng was tired: it was three in the morning, the next day at eight, he should have been in the office on time if he didn't want to be fired.
    "What do you want from me? Food, cuddles, bad TV shows? Please, if something can make you stop... "
    There was a knock on the door, causing the baby to cry even harder at the sudden noise.
    "Perfect…"
    Jiang Cheng went to the door, being careful not to trip over Jin Ling's toys scattered across the floor.
    "For the last time, Xue Yang, I won't put a gag on my damn brat just to get you to sleep all the way ... you're not Xue Yang."
    “No, I'm not Xue Xang - answered the most beautiful boy he had ever seen, despite his messy hair, sleepy look, and pajamas that seemed to have seen better times - I'm Nie Huaisang, I live in the apartment next to yours."

    [Sometimes, the love of your life knocks at your door at three in the morning.]

    Summary

    And then, the wards shimmer, and someone steps out of them.

    At first glance, he probably could be the Yiling Patriarch. Anyone who’s ever met the Yiling Patriarch says two things; he wears black robes and a red ribbon, and he carries a black flute. This person is wearing black robes and a red ribbon and he’s carrying a black flute, but there’s a sword strapped to his side as well - the Yiling Patriarch does not use his own sword - and he’s much smaller than one would expect the Yiling Patriarch to be.

    “The Yiling Patriarch does not see anyone,” he says, in a chilling voice, “leave.”

    “Who are you? Where is Wei Wuxian?” Sect Leader Yao demands.

    “I am Wei Sizhui, the last protector of the Yiling Wens,” Wei Sizhui lifts the flute - chenqing, though why he has it, nobody knows - and his eyes glow red, “and you are not welcome here.”

    or: the wens live and the burial mounds stand strong even now, but zizhen is raised as a nie and he's never let something as silly as demonic cultivation stop him from falling in love.

    Summary

    "It had been only a few years since Nie Mingjue's death. It had been only a few years since Nie Huaisang had discovered the betrayal of someone he had considered a friend and the cruel murder of his brother.
    The lavish celebrations in Lanling were always opportunities to take the next step in a practical way, and someone viewed by others as foolish and frivolous, a coward with a pretty face, was easy to do suspicious things without becoming suspicious - but always remained cautious, not everything would be seen as an innocent act if he took the slightest wrong step. The wrong step was not noticing the eyes that had rested on him since they had met there and had followed him throughout the banquet, a restless look, as restless as the person holding it used to be." - On his way to revenge against Jin Guangyao, Nie Huaisang is faced with an unexpected possibility and the chance to put aside all his masks in front of the man who had always been in his heart.
    [HIATUS]

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian’s question echoed in his thoughts again. 

    Do you think he’s at all happy?

    Nie Huaisang had wanted to be happy once. It was all he had wanted, really. A life with a loving partner filled with wine and art and music. He hadn’t wanted to lead the sect, hadn’t wanted to throw his life away to a cause—and yet here he was. He really was like da-ge in some ways. Ruthless to a fault. 

    But he was not dead.

    Nie Huaisang set his fan down and picked up the letter from Jiang Wanyin, folding it back into its original shape and tapping it thoughtfully against his mouth.

    He wondered if it was too late for happiness. Whether Jiang Wanyin might like to help him find it—help himself find it with Nie Huaisang. He hadn’t been mistaken in the desire he’d seen in Jiang Wanyin’s eyes. 

    He desperately wanted to see how far it could take them.
