    Summary

    Probationary Constable Peter Grant met me for the first time when I walked up to him by the portico of the Actors' Church on a freezing winter night and said, "Hello. What are you up to?" However, I first met Detective Sergeant Peter Grant when he jogged up to my doorstep on a mild autumn afternoon and said, "There you are, sir. It is you, isn't it?"

    Summary

    Only one day into marriage and he’s already been betrayed. By his soulmate, no less.

    “You’re not embarrassed at all,” Wei Wuxian says slowly, feeling a disbelieving grin creep onto his face. “You just like making things difficult, don’t you?”

    Lan Zhan smiles.

    Summary

    Meng Yao's sister-in-law is following the Jiang tradition of being evil. Why else would she try to set him up with a married man?

    “I’m pretty sure my sister-in-law is trying to ruin my life.” 

    Lan Huan’s tone is one of genuine curiosity when he asks, “Why would she do that?” 

    “I don’t know yet,” Meng Yao untangles himself from the barre and crosses his arms across his chest, looking up (and up, and up, curse Jiang Yanli for her knowledge of his tastes) at Lan Huan’s very handsome jawline. “But I need you to make less vigorous eye-contact until you bring me a notarized waiver saying your spouse doesn’t care about you hitting on me.”

    Summary

    Mianmian breathes out a harsh sigh, crossing her arms over her chest as she levels him with the hardest glare she could muster. “Are you doing this just so that I can send your stupid letter?”

    “No - “ Jin Zixuan starts, before saying, “I mean, well, if you still wanted to, I would like for it to be you, but I do have a courier lined up in the case that you don’t."

    Mianmian’s lips pull into a thin line. And then, begrudgingly, she holds out her hand. “I owe you. For protecting the others. But this is a one time thing, do you understand me?” she asks, her voice hard and stern. Emulating Madame Jin’s ire.

    Jin Zixuan reacts appropriately. Carefully, he pulls a small parcel out of his qiankun pouch and hands it to her with both hands. Respectful.

    --

    Mianmian plays courier for Jin Zixuan and falls in love along the way.

    Summary

    Meng Yao almost didn’t knock. Almost just resigned himself to freeze outside against his door. But he raised a shaking fist, shaking from the cold or the adrenaline or the anxiety, and knocked. It was quieter than it should have been, perhaps, but it gave him an out. It gave Xichen one too.
    The light came on. He almost turned. Almost ran. But his rational brain kicked in and his knee hurt and he needed to be inside and-
    The door opened. Xichen’s face went from confused to happy to concerned in the span of two seconds.
    “A-Yao?”
    “Gege,” he managed to say, hands knuckle-white on his backpack straps, arms shivering even though he held them tightly. His teeth were nearly chattering. He couldn’t make eye contact. His voice came out weak. This was a disaster.
    He nearly collapsed as Xichen bodily pulled him inside the warmth of his apartment, the warmth of his arms, and shut the door behind him, shutting it to the cold world that Meng Yao fought so hard to stay afloat in. He probably had woken him up; Xichen was in a soft shirt and sleep pants, and Meng Yao hated to be an inconvenience, he was always an inconvenience, and-
    “What happened? Are you alright?”

    Summary

    Jiang Yanli lifted her eyes up to Madam Jin and said, calmly, as if from a hundred miles away, “I am a daughter of the Yu sect. Did he think my mother only taught me how to pour tea?”

    Or: the AU in which Jin Guangshan targets Jiang Yanli and she kills him before he can ruin everything.

    Summary

    It wasn’t that Jiang Cheng hadn’t liked Nie Huaisang well enough, when they were all learning together in the Cloud Recesses. Anyone who had the energy to keep up with Wei Wuxian – and just enough good sense to help veer him off the really bad ideas, even if he did keep egging him on in regards to the medium-grade bad ones – was good news in his books.

    But liking him didn’t mean respecting him, and the fact that Nie Huaisang hadn’t participated much in the war – couldn’t participate much – had led Jiang Cheng to discount him more or less entirely.

    That’s what made it all the more surprising when Nie Huaisang ended up being the unofficial leader of the three remaining Great Sects in opposing Jin Guangshan after the war.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian remembers, a long time ago in basically another life, a college party where he managed to bully Lan Wangji into taking a single shot. The Second Jade had gone bleary and fallen asleep on a couch almost immediately. Wei Wuxian figured that in the intervening years his tolerance would have improved, or that a drunk Lan Zhan would immediately be followed by a sleeping Lan Zhan.

    This supposition was, as it turns out, incorrect. Grown-ass adult Lan Zhan is, when drunk, something Wei Wuxian can only describe as white girl wasted.

    Or: Lan Zhan gets drunk on Capitol Hill. Wei Wuxian isn't supposed to be the responsible one, but by god, he's gonna do it.

    Summary

    The reboot completes, and Wei Ying’s brain smashes this information together into two mind-shattering thoughts. Number one, he knew very well already, and is now further seared by defined muscles and a mouth-watering tattoo into his every waking moment: Lan Zhan is the hottest fucking person on the planet.

    Number two: that guy wasn’t visiting Lan Zhan’s neighbour, he was visiting Lan Zhan, which means:

    Lan Zhan fucks.
    Lan Zhan fucks.
    Lan Zhan fucks.

    ;

    Lan Zhan has been Wei Ying's best friend for years. Literally, years. How did he not already know? How has he missed this most important of facts? And more importantly, how is he ever going to get over it?

    Summary

    The picture is of Wei Ying, that much is clear. It’s of a lot more of Wei Ying than Lan Zhan is used to seeing. He supposes that, technically, Wei Ying is dressed. It’s a bare technicality, since one of Wei Ying’s hands has rucked up his black tank top practically to his collarbone, showing a long expanse of abdomen and one nipple. Sweat beads on his sternum, catching the light like jewels. His other hand is--Lan Zhan feels his eyes widen, as though unable to look away from a train wreck--on his hip, one thumb tugging down the waistband of a pair of red briefs. Wei Ying is biting his lower lip and looking directly into the camera, sultry, his eyes dark and inviting. His erection is obvious, outlined against the red of the briefs and framed carefully with the hand on his hip. Lan Zhan’s brain goes wildly, screamingly blank.

    Or: Lan Zhan accidentally finds his best friend's OnlyFans account and has an ongoing emotional crisis.

    Summary

    "Speaking of offensive!" Wei Wuxian laughs and taps the rolled up list of rules against Lan Zhan's lips, as if holding the two of them responsible for their owner’s indiscretion. "I'm almost certain I saw something in here forbidding public displays of affection."

    "My apologies,” Lan Wangji echoes, not at all meaning it.

    (There are rules for how an engaged couple of the Lan Sect are meant to conduct themselves. Somehow, Lan Wangji keeps finding himself breaking them. Title from a Hozier song bc I am the most basic of bitches)

    Summary

    Lan Wangji gets emotionally blackmailed by a toddler. It somehow fixes everything.


    “You two act like young parents with their first child,” Granny said after Lan Wangji ended up with Wen Yuan sleeping against his chest once again. “Not wanting to let him go or hear him cry.”

    “Aw, but Granny, don’t we make a cute couple with our little one?” Wei Ying teased, tipping to the side to lay his head on Lan Wangji’s unoccupied shoulder.

    Granny reached over and pinched Wei Ying’s cheek while Lan Wangji tried to pretend his heart wasn’t suddenly trying to pound out of his chest at how close Wei Ying was.

    Summary

    “Can you take a bath with me?”

    Grinning, Wei Wuxian said, “Of course, Hanguang-jun.” He walked over and delicately took the robe off, placing it on their bed, and climbed in, one leg at a time. Before he sat down in the tub, however, Lan Wangji grabbed his wrists.

    “I found what I was craving,” he said in a soft voice that had an edge to it.

    Summary

    The weeks turns to months, and Wei Ying is still in Gusu.

    Wei Ying is still in Gusu, and Lan Wangji finds that every time he opens the Jingshi's doors at the end of the day, he expects Wei Ying to be there smiling at him and it's a terrible, terrible thing because he couldn't, shouldn't get used to it. Because surely, Wei Ying belongs to the freedom of the open road and not in a place with four thousand rules - Even if that place has Lan Wangji in it.

    Wei Wuxian learns to settle in the Cloud Recesses, and Lan Wangji learns to settle the worries in his heart.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian chuckles and starts pushing Lan Wangji's outer robes off his shoulders. "Poor Lan Zhan, subject to such earthly miseries. You must be exhausted, come to bed, come to bed."

    "Mm," Lan Wangji says. He raises his arms so that Wei Wuxian can keep undressing him. His clothes will end up on the floor, but no matter. Wei Wuxian's deft hands at his belts are worth wrinkled robes.

    "... Goodness, Hanguang-Jun, you wear too many damned layers," Wei Wuxian tells him after a while. "Would it kill you to stop after a reasonable five?"

    --

    Wei Wuxian moves into the Jingshi. They sleep together.
