    Summary

    "Have you heard of Wei Wuxian?" someone bellows. It's a teenager with a microphone, the speakers loud and obnoxious above his head. "Come join the Yiling Wei sect and earn the opportunity for her to teach you personally!"

    He has a stall and everything. There's another teenage boy with him, handing out leaflets. Wei Ying pulls her hair down to cover the sides of her face and walks up.

    "Hey! Are you interested in demonic cultivation?" asks the kid brightly. He grabs a leaflet off the stall and thrusts it at her.

    "Uh, I don't really know a lot about it," Wei Ying says, "but you said Wei Wuxian could personally teach me?"

    -

    Aka the casefic where someone is impersonating Wei Wuxian and has founded a sect, or possibly a cult, or possibly a multi-level marketing scheme, in her name.

    Aka the wlw mlm fic.

    Summary

    When a celestial body forms, its soul manifests as a dragon, and seeks out the nearest inhabited planet to hunt upon. The moon dragon's power is cataclysmic on Earth, as she draws her strength from the gravitational force which creates the ocean’s tides.

    Thousands of years ago, a violent king cursed a fragment of the moon; anyone who held it had the dragon’s perfect obedience. The king used her as a weapon, destroying countless lives in his conquests.

    After the king’s death, his heir decided such a weapon was inhumane for war, but too valuable to relinquish; The dragon was commanded to remain in her prison beneath the kingdom forever.

    Enraged, she began to kill any human who entered her cell. Rather than command her to stop, the royal family found her to be an efficient executioner, and an effective threat to dissenters.

    When Lyra is sent into the dragon’s cell, fear conflicts with empathy, as both have suffered at the same hands.

    Summary

    Sasha’s humanity chains her to something weak in herself, while her inhuman mind hungers for more.

    Luci wants to set her free, but might break her in the process.

    Sasha is a gene-edited superhuman under the thumb of Harrison Armory, the biggest corpo-state in explored space.

    Luci is a shackled fragment of an otherworldly being who is forced to fight humanity's battles; unhindered by concepts like empathy or love.

    Both of them want one thing more than anything else. Freedom.
