Summary
"And for Lan Zhan? He's not going to believe that I mentioned A-Yuan to him and he's the one who forgot about it."
Nie Huaisang lifts his wine glass and gestures with it a little, like a sage who has given his advice and now the rest is Wei Wuxian's problem. "You're just going to have to pretend very hard. Don't let him break you."
Or: The one where Wei Wuxian secretly adopts A-Yuan and when he tries to convince Lan Wangji he had a kid all along, Lan Wangji rolls with it, ups the ante, and sets off a game of chicken that digs up buried feelings that Wei Wuxian is 100% sure he's not going to act on. Okay, 90% sure.- Language:

Summary
From his job in the Armitage L train station booth, Wei Ying has watched The Most Beautiful Man In The World ride the train at 8 am and 4:30 pm for years, always in perfect suits, always with perfect hair, always with a perfect smile.
He's going to marry that guy someday. So what if he doesn't know his name. Names have nothing to do with true love.
When he saves His Future Husband from being squished by a train, Wei Ying finds himself engulfed in a tsunami of Lans who think he really is going to marry Mr. Wonderful, Lan Xichen, their son/brother/uncle/nephew. Despite himself, Wei Ying likes belonging to them. Except for the lying. Except for the guilt. Except for the fact that he took one look at his pretend-fiancé's brother, Lan Zhan, and maybe, MAYBE fell stupidly, hopelessly in love.
He can't tell them. He can't not tell them. How could this possibly get any worse??? (spoiler alert: it gets worse)

The whole mistake plot was a bit too long for my liking, but there are many other things in this fic that I absolutely adore! The feeling of family, songs, winter atmosphere. It's in my heart now.

Summary
For Lan Wangji, loving or being loved inevitably leads to grieving. He's seen it happen countless times.
When he's hit by a car and put into an induced coma for a few days, his mind wanders, and he gets the opportunity to revisit different periods of his life, and starts to reconsider his view on things.
In his coma, he hears the voice of the boy he once loved but thought he'd lost - though that might have been just a dream. Or was it?
Wei Wuxian volunteers at the hospital to reduce anxiety in child patients. One day, he meets a boy who's crying for his father. His day gets even weirder when Wei Wuxian meets the boy's uncle, who asks him for a special favour.

Summary
The facts are:
- Lan Zhan died saving Wei Ying’s life.
- Lan Zhan died and it was Wei Ying’s fault.
- Lan Zhan died and something might be haunting Wei Ying.
- Lan Zhan died but Wei Ying sees him and talks to him almost everyday.
- Lan Zhan died and Wei Ying is probably, definitely, going insane over it.
Something weird is going on.
And one of those facts has to be a lie.Wei Ying just needs to figure it out.

Summary
“It’s okay that you miss him,” said Lan Wangji, a familiar litany to them both by now. “Do you feel sad?”
“I feel sad,” A-Yuan repeated, shoulders hitching with tiny hiccuping sniffs. “When is he coming back?”
“I don’t know. I am not sure where he is.”
But this seemed to frustrate A-Yuan. “Xian-gege! I miss him! Please, baba?” He looked up at him with wet cheeks and a wide, quivering frown. “Please baba can you ask him? I really miss him!” He sobbed again, heartbreakingly.
It stabbed straight through him, cracking open the reservoir of loss and helplessness that was all his own. His child’s grief did that, sometimes. It always took him by surprise. He caught his breath sharply and gathered A-Yuan into his arms, holding him tight until the pain ebbed.
“I will try,” he said softly into A-Yuan’s hair, when he could speak again. He never made uncertain promises and tried not even to raise uncertain hopes, but his son was hurting. His son believed he could make it better. He couldn’t not try.
Wen Qing might at least know who this “Xian-gege” was. He would text her in the morning. It would be a start.

Summary
Wei Ying would never forget the day he first met Wheatgrass Guy. He had been rotating the stock of bananas, cleaning out the over-ripe ones to move to the bargain bin, when it had happened.
“Excuse me. Where can I find the wheatgrass?”
“End cap, row four -- ” Wei Ying started to answer. And then he saw him. Standing there in his flowy white tunic and his pale blue linen pants, as if that was a thing that people did. Who did that? Was it legal to do that? Wei Ying thought not.
“Thank you,” Wheatgrass Guy had said, his startlingly light eyes boring into him.
“No problem,” Wei Ying had managed. “Let me know if you need help with bananas.”
Wei Ying should not be allowed to speak. Who had entrusted him with words?
“I will let you know if I need any help,” Wheatgrass Guy had said graciously, and Wei Ying thought that this guy was too good, too amazing, too kind, letting it slide like that -- “with bananas.”
Oh.
Oh no, that was worse.
Wheatgrass Guy was kind of a bitch.OR:

I've already bookmarked another work by his author and wrote "it's GREAT". Should I say this is GREAT GREAT? I can tell it as many times at it's needed. Because I am in love with this fic as well. It was... Well, one of my best fanfics experiences. Of course, it has some angsty angsty angst that feels so real one need to be aware of tags, but it's just for the best. Characters, relations, the way author treats mental issues, just Nie Mingjue, man deserves his own spot in appreciation. And plot. And...
Well, I just love! <3

Mysterius, but very capable Wei Wuxian working in 911 dispatch center, cute A-Yuan and his father, who stumbles in this fic a bit too much, but it's actually just right :D.
Just joking, the fic is truly _GREAT_. Some family feels, angst, but also a nice ending...

When I decided to leave a bookmark 'the best work I've read, I am too much in love to be unbiased' I've remembered there was another fic, already, that I've bookmarked as the best out there. I checked it and realised-
It's the same author!
Well, dear author, what can I say, you've outidid yourself, cause I announce _that_ is now my favourite fic ever xDD. I like so many aspects of it. Characters. Tension. Zombie. Relations. Greatly portraied angst. Family feels. Amazing Wei Wuxian with a child on his chest and an axe in his arms. The previous sentence, but paste it twice. The only thing I probably miss is having it on m shelf, but since I cannot buy it because it's not a book and we are given this amazing writing for free, I can cheer at every chapter and thank the author for hard work! <3

Summary
It was luck that Lan Wangji heard of the plan to confront Wei Wuxian in the Qiongqi Path. It was instinct that had made him accompany Jin Zixuan to suppress any violence from the encounter. It was years of musical cultivation that had turned his ear to a second flute. A second flute intent on changing the course of all their lives.
With the flute's owner in the custody of both Lan Wangji and Jin Zixuan, Wei Wuxian is called to give an account of the incident in Jinlintai, in front of the friends and family he had been hoping to reconcile with. As truths are revealed, Wei Wuxian is confined to the Burial Mounds under the protection of the Lan Clan of Gusu with Lan Wangji acting as personal guard to him and the Wens.
Leading a simpler life, friendships are tested and strengthened, truths are spoken and feelings revealed, teaching all touched by the events that family is strongest when you build it together.

Amazing fic. It takes its time establishing relations and events, but that's part of its charm. Nothing feels rushed, the story unravels slowly, naturally and all feelings feel very much _earned_. It is also tender, and warm, and just full of heart. Love it!

Summary
Lan Wangji was not delusional. He knew Wei Ying was dead. The sharp stab of hope had spread out and dulled.
But there was something firmer than hope, firmer also than fantasy, which he would not leave behind. Even if Wei Ying was gone and would never come back, nothing would take his place in Lan Wangji’s heart. He thought about that occasionally, when he glimpsed the moon through stark branches on a forest trail, or when he felt drowsy and distant in the seat of honor at banquets.
It was simple. He would always love Wei Ying.
-
Over 16 years, Lan Wangji’s faith is rewarded as rumors solidify: The Yiling Patriarch survived Nightless City and became a powerful sect leader in a distant land.
Mirthless, jaded, aloof: this stranger sounds nothing like the Wei Wuxian whom Lan Wangji loves. But as political backstabbing and a monstrous magic threaten to destroy the cultivation world, Wei Wuxian will return one last time.
