    Summary

    For as long as I could remember, Wuqing was there. I couldn’t remember when I first met that timid boy, the one who was scared of frogs and hurriedly raised his hand to answer whenever the teacher asked questions in class, but my fondest memories of school involved the comforting creak of his wheelchair, or the sound of his quiet voice reciting poetry to the trees in the back courtyard where he thought no one would hear. Because of his persisting loyalty, I never once doubted we would be together always, walking side by side through this mortal world. Even when he left the mountain to find his own way, I knew we would never be apart for long.

    The river of time always led us to our own paths, but would always inevitably bring us back together in the end. Forever parting, forever reuniting, a constant cycle of ebb and flow. In this way, I knew the future only held good things for me. Even with the threat of the gu poison hanging over my head, at least I had Wuqing by my side.

    There was nothing I believed in the world more than that.

    Summary

    Lu Guang is starting to believe that something is wrong. Wrong with him.

     

    Wrong, how? He asks, but he’s not stupid— he feels it each and every time, feels the way how his heart thuds in his ears, feels the sudden breathlessness and forgotten words, feels how every nerve in his body tightens, feels his blood run hot, and he always, always only feels that way around—

     

    He hears a loud pop and fizzing sound coming from the kitchen, acquainted by an ear-splitting and unrestrained “Fuck!” 

     


    Wrong like that.

     

    Lu Guang has never been so thankful that the shop is closed.

    Or, Lu Guang as he struggles with the guilt and denial of falling in love with his best friend.

    Summary

    The first time it happens, it’s just a kiss on the cheek, so Lu Guang isn’t even sure that it counts. It’s while he’s trying to prepare dinner for them; Qiao Ling brought back vegetables from the market, and he’s busy chopping scallions. He’s a good cook when he needs to be, which means that Cheng Xiaoshi rummaging through the cabinets in search of extra condiments to pour into his work is both unnecessary and a little insulting.

    The knife is still in Lu Guang’s hand when he feels arms wrapping around his waist from behind. A bony chin descends onto his shoulder.

    “Idiot,” Lu Guang accuses. “I’m holding a knife.”

    “Okay.” Cheng Xiaoshi exhales next to his ear, but he doesn’t let go. “We don’t have any chili oil.”

    --

    Or, the existence of a first kiss implies at the very least a second.

    Summary

    There’s nothing wrong with how Cheng Xiaoshi chooses to display his affection, really, it’s just that Lu Guang is overwhelmed and also a little terrified by the mere intensity of it. Qiao Ling doesn’t even seem to notice that anything’s changed, so maybe he’s the one being weird about it at all.

    Or: Cheng Xiaoshi is showing symptoms of being in love and Lu Guang doesn’t know what to do with himself.

    Summary

    “I’ll help,” Lan Wangji says.

    “Hey, Lan Zhan...” Wei Wuxian unfolds his leg and gives his foot a playful kick. “I told you to think about it! This means I’d be here for a long time, taking up your time, your space, your peace. And I can’t pay you! I have nothing of worth to give. It isn’t as simple as-”

    “I’ll do it,” he says again, more forcefully this time. “You don’t have to give me anything.”

    Wei Wuxian looks away, hiding a small smile. Doesn’t he know Lan Wangji would do anything for him, by now? Doesn’t he understand that he holds Lan Wangji’s life in his hands?

    -

    Post-CQL Wei Wuxian comes back to the Cloud Recesses to ask for Lan Wangji's help with his new golden core.
    Together, they learn how to communicate, how to ask for things, and how to touch each other.

    Their relationship develops in between quiet dinners in the Jingshi, meditation sessions, core training and a lot of Lan Juniors speculation on whether or not they're actually together yet.

    Summary

    They tell him that he’s been cursed.

    They tell him that they will look through the scrolls in the library to find a way to undo it.

    Some of the elders offer that it might not be a bad thing that he’s forgotten, if all he has forgotten is Wei Wuxian.

    Nobody tells him who Wei Wuxian is.

    Lan Wangji thinks he can guess.

    Summary

    For as long as Lan Wangji has been alive, he has been ruled by the family curse. He knows he will doom the one he gives his heart to. It is the reason the only life he’s known is within the four walls of the Jingshi.

    That is, until a stranger slings one leg over the wall; two jars of liquor dangling from his hand and calling out a tentative hello.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian is going to be offered to the Emperor Lan Wangji as a marriage prospect at the end of the Jiang sect's visit to the palace. He's not worried - the Emperor always says no to every offer. But he is bored, sitting around and waiting until the day of the ceremony so they can get it over with and go home.

    While he is exploring the palace, he coincidentally meets a beautiful man called Lan Zhan, who he loves to tease. These things may be related.

    Summary

    A few months into their stay at the Cloud Recesses, Wei Wuxian wakes up weird. He goes from bothering Lan Wangji incessantly to avoiding him completely, and from getting punished practically every day to being a model student. Jiang Cheng is willing to roll with it - although it is strange that Lan Wangji seems so very determined not to be ignored...

    or:

    For several long, long moments, the two of them stare deeply into each other's eyes. Slowly, Wei Wuxian's face goes vibrantly red.

    "Oh!" he says. "Oh. Oh wow - yeah, okay, okay, uh-"

    "Mn," Lan Wangji says. Wei Wuxian nods frantically as if that were a whole sentence.

    Summary

    The evening Lan Wangji – Lan Zhan to friends, or rather friend, being all of one, being all of Wei Ying – accidentally overhears the heart’s desire of his heart’s desire is a cold winter’s day, the first snow falling outside.

    “Brother Wei,” Nie Huaisang says cheerfully, another voice Lan Zhan knows far too well. “Still no luck getting Lan Wangji to Netflix and chill with you?”

    Jiang Cheng makes a retching noise. Wei Ying makes a stuttering noise.

    “I don’t….!” Wei Ying protests, but Nie Huaisang only laughs and Wei Ying stutters again and groans and sighs. “How do you know… I want to….”

    Lan Zhan looks down at his hands, brow furrowed. Netflix and chill? Wei Ying wants to watch Netflix with him and relax? That is his heart’s desire? It sounds slightly odd, but Lan Zhan wants Wei Ying to have anything, everything, has since Wei Ying persistently annoyed his way into Lan Zhan’s heart when they were 15 and at school together and apparently, everything includes Netflix and chill with him.

    Lan Zhan will make that happen.

    Summary

    "You worry me," Lan WangJi tells him seriously. He puts his hands on Wei WuXian's knees for lack of a better place to put them. Wei WuXian places his own hands on top of Lan WangJi's, presumably to stop him from trying again to check his bandages.

     

    "You don't need to worry," Wei WuXian says. "I swear I'm fine. I'll tell you if something feels off. You know me, I'm a huge crybaby whiner."

     

    Lan WangJi frowns at him again. It's true that Wei WuXian can be a bit of a crybaby, but only about injuries that don't actually matter. When it's something important, like a ghost curse or a fundamentally unstable necromantic practice, Wei WuXian keeps it to himself. "Ridiculous," Lan WangJi tells him. Wei WuXian grins down at him.

    In the Jingshi, after Koi Tower.

    Summary

    Xie lian was a sobbing mess.

    He had his cheeks flushed bright red as he tightly hugged Mu Quin's waist and wailed," YOU NEVER...sob....EAT MY .....sob....... HANDMADE .....sob.... SOUP, AND THat ...sob.... is BECAUSE YOU NEVER CONSIDERED ME AS YOUR FRIEnnnnnnnnnd."

    Mu Quin was not a patient man. But yet he gently patted his friend's head to quiet him down a bit and also make him stop rubbing his face on his clothes. They were already covered in snot and tears. Feng Xin being the other good friend tried to contact the said weeping friend's husband, to take his very drunk beloved back home.

    This was all Pei Ming's fault for suggesting such a stupid game and getting His highness drunk.

    "Gege!" Hua Cheng says, startled. A huge grin spreads across his face. "What was that for?"

    "I wanted to," Xie Lian says, grinning back. He kisses Hua Cheng again, on the nose this time. "You're cute."

    "I'm -" Hua Cheng sputters. "I'm cute?”

    "The cutest," Xie Lian proclaims, cupping Hua Cheng's face in both hands and smacking a third kiss on his forehead. "My adorable husband."
