    Summary

    Having ghosted Lan Wangji after their accidental night together, Wei Wuxian was confident he could raise the child alone. That confidence vanishes the moment the baby is born. The entire room nearly chokes as Wen Qing holds up a newborn who is a perfect, tiny carbon copy of Hanguang-jun.

    The infant doesn't even cry; he just settles into the same stoic scowl and indignant "Hmph" Lan Wangji makes when he’s annoyed. When the baby finally opens his eyes, Wei Wuxian realizes the truth is impossible to hide. No amount of lying can cover up a face that looks exactly like the man he’s been trying to avoid.

    Summary

    After the fall of Xianle, Xie Lian is taken by Yong’an.

    Crushed by guilt over the destruction of his kingdom and the loss of his last believer, he endures generations of cruelty at the hands of Yong’an’s kings. Again and again, his children are taken from him, until the current king and queen offer him a particularly vicious mercy: one of his sons is allowed to live.

    Lang Qianqiu grows up as the beloved prince of Yong’an, never knowing that the precious guoshi who raised him is also the one who gave birth to him.

    Content warning: the first few chapters are painful and deal with captivity, abuse, pregnancy loss, and trauma. After that, the fic becomes much softer, with a heavy focus on recovery, love, family, smut, and happy babies.

    Summary

    Xie Lian remembered that there had been a time where rules felt like cliffs.

    A time when every misstep seemed to confirm that fate was waiting for him to fail again and again. He had learned to move carefully then, to weigh every action against consequence, to measure compassion against catastrophe.

    Fear had settled into his bones so thoroughly that even small choices had begun to feel dangerous.

    Hua Cheng dismantled that fear piece by piece.

    For years, his husband had encouraged every impulse, every reckless kindness, every softhearted detour that caught Xie Lian’s attention. If Xie Lian wanted to rebuild a ruined hut in the middle of the night, Hua Cheng brought lanterns and timber. If he wanted to cross a mountain to deliver a single lucky talisman, Hua Cheng walked beside him with amused devotion.

    Rules had always existed, of course but Hua Cheng simply regarded them as suggestions.

    or: Xie Lian ascends as a deity of motherhood and children- and dealing with heaven isn't so bad when you have a ghost king for a husband, and a god for a son.

    Summary

    After his second banishment, Xie Lian is taken captive by the royal family of Yong’an. Immortal and unaging, he becomes their divine possession- a prize passed from king to king as a symbol of Yong’an’s might and proof of Heaven’s favour.

    He endures decades of control and humiliation, until the birth of a child changes everything. Lang Qianqiu- son of Yong'an's queen, but Xie Lian’s by blood- grows up beneath the shadow of secrets, lies, and stolen names.

    Or: Xie Lian is Lang Qianqiu’s mother, but no one knows it, and he gets buried anyway.

    OR: If you are brave enough to make it through 8 chapters of extreme angst and trauma you will be rewarded with truly egregious amounts of fluff, filthy sex and many happy hualian babies.)

    Summary

    Xie Lian was not upset about what he lost. He swore up and down that he didn’t mind being immortal, ashes wrapped around his neck. Not a god anymore. Not really. So, Xie Lian made a home on a mountain, plagued with white flowers that sprouted from his blood and his footsteps, twisting along every pathway. Another ghost came to live with him, between the flowers and the trees and winding river Xie Lian kept thinking of drowning in. He said his name was San Lang. It wasn’t. It was actually Hua Cheng, but Xie Lian didn’t know how to bring that up. It wasn’t as important as everything else—gardens, flowers, silver butterflies, and sorting out his dreams from his perilous reality. Hua Cheng made space, and Xie Lian let him.

    Dead god, very dead follower. It was almost funny.

    He wasn’t sure what to do, seeing as he didn't plan to ascend once more, or plan to hold power over a kingdom again. Xie Lian wasn’t staying forever. The mountain would open up, and he would leave to become something catastrophic. Or he would finally disperse. Who was he to say?

    (or: xie lian dies, becomes a calamity, ascends to the heavens against his wishes, and finally makes his life flourish between his thumbs and a ghost’s smile.)
