    Summary

    After a brief meeting of families and an equally brief betrothal, Wei Wuxian is married on a balmy morning in the autumn of his twenty-fifth year.

    Despite his passion for love-ballads and romance novels, Wei Wuxian never expected that he might be married one day. As the common-born ward of a merchant, he lacked the standing to find a wife among the gentry; and though he had liked the idea of a love match—where neither his rank nor that of his wife would matter very much, as long as Wei Wuxian could provide a comfortable home for them—no would-be beloved had ever materialized.

    It was thus that he came to be unwed at the age of twenty-four, when one of his uncle’s old friends from court wrote to Lotus Pier to ask if Jiang Fengmian would be in favor of a ruzhui marriage with Wei Wuxian as the bridegroom.

    Or: the minghun of Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji, in four parts.

    Summary

    What if Wei Wuxian remained a little suspicious of the Jin Sect's invitation to Jin Ling's first-month celebration? Based mostly on book canon, in which Lan Wangji did not write that invitation, and Wei Wuxian takes some extra, incredibly genius precautions, thus avoiding his fate at Qiongqi path...but at what cost?

    AKA the fic where WWX crossdresses his way into winning his life, love, and liberty

    Summary

    The apocalypse that made Earth uninhabitable came slowly enough for humanity to spread comfortably into the galaxy. Aboard their ship Wuji, immortals Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji travel the stars, seeking high adventure and new friends by going wherever the chaos is. After a thousand years of dual cultivation, their cores have quantum entangled: Nothing is impossible, as long as they are together.

    While visiting a market on a moon near blue gas giant Flagel, Lan Wangji disappears.

    To say that Wei Wuxian does not take this very well is an understatement. The galaxy trembles with the advent of a Planet Killer, and the Magpie Necromancer’s shadow is cast upon the Milky Way.

    Summary

    Even the wrong seed, given fertile ground, can grow strong roots and bloom. What use is a flower among a harvest? Can a single weed poison everything? At the Baifeng Mountian Crowd Hunt, Jin Zixuan does not confess his feelings, but it is Madam Jin who plants an accidental seed.

    All Sect Leader Jiang Cheng wants is to keep what’s left of his family safe, to together rebuild Lotus Pier to its former glory. He makes them miserable instead. With her weak cultivation, Jiang Yanli knows she has to do more than make soup to save her family. But what can she offer other than her blood and her hand? Wei Wuxian would do anything for his martial siblings. Anything but tell the truth.

    Summary

    “So what are you going to do about it, Xichen?” Jin Guangyao heard Nie Mingjue demanding, and paused, tilting his head to the side to listen rather than proceeding to enter the room.

    Nie Mingjue had gotten increasingly irascible as of late, no doubt in large part to the growing influence of the Song of Turmoil that he’d been playing for him, and much of his ire was (correctly, although unknowingly) aimed at Jin Guangyao. It therefore would be better to stay outside and listen, to figure out what argument Nie Mingjue was using and design appropriate countermeasures – to convince Lan Xichen that Nie Mingjue was, as usual, making a fuss when there was no reason, and that it was safe to simply ignore him or downplay his concerns.

    “Da-ge…”

    “Don’t da-ge me! He’s killing people!”

    Jin Guangyao tensed.

    Summary

    "You can't seriously be suggesting that we elect Sect Leader Yao to be Chief Cultivator!"

    “I don’t see the problem,” Nie Mingjue said, heroically maintaining a straight face despite the slightest curve in his eyes that indicated a man who knew exactly what the problem with his suggestion was. “According to all the stories I’ve heard him tell, Sect Leader Yao has been at the forefront of every action in the past few years, large or small - no matter where or how implausibly quickly he must have traveled to get there.”

    Summary

    When it turned out to be Jin Guangyao’s ghost that appeared in the revealing array designed to show Nie Huaisang the identity of the ghost that was haunting him, Nie Huaisang wasn’t even surprised.

    After all, who else would bear him the sort of grudge that persisted beyond death? He was fundamentally harmless – to most people.

    Summary

    “You know, it really is quite funny, if you think about it a certain way,” Nie Huaisang said, and Lan Xichen trembled within what should be the safety and security of his home – of his seclusion.

    He didn’t know who had allowed, or who kept allowing, the Nie sect leader to enter the Cloud Recesses, to come up to his rooms and sit by his window. He didn’t know what spell or talisman or array Nie Huaisang was using to speak with him no matter how many sound-blocking talismans Lan Xichen put up to block against him.

    He didn’t know when he might come, and he didn’t know how to stop him from coming.

    Summary

    “What happened to you?” Jiang Cheng demands.

    Wei Wuxian sighs. “I already said I don’t know. This conversation is so boring,” he says. “I’m hungry. Can’t we get some food? They’re all too dead,” he adds, flicking a hand at the dead Wen guards, “to be tasty.”

    and

    Then there’s a sound like someone hacking something up and Wei Ying comes back into the room and, with a very proud expression drops a handful of teeth on the map table. Human teeth. They’re bloody and… wet…

    “What?” Jiang Cheng asks. “What’s this?”

    “Wen Chao’s teeth!” Wei Ying says proudly.

    and

    Lan Wangji wants to hold him tight in his arms and cry. He wants to eat him out. He wants to perform an exorcism.

    Lan Jingyi turns to look at him, expression scandalized. “Are you crazy? Have you taken leave of your senses? Us? You and me, the lowliest of junior disciples go to the clan heads and ask them to… to donate Wei Wuxian’s dowry?”

    Or: Wei Wuxian encounters an unexpected barrier to marital bliss: the need to provide a dowry to marry into the Lan clan.

    Summary

    In the years following the Sunshot Campaign, the mysterious, masked cultivator who’d defeated Wen Ruohan took on many identities: the Yiling Patriarch, leader of the Wen rebels, enemy of the Jin Sect, practitioner of wicked tricks. His true name was shrouded in mystery. He always wore a mask. He carried no sword; wore no clan colors or insignia. Clouds of resentful energy clung to him as he walked.

    But there was one thing that absolutely everyone agreed on: the Yiling Patriarch could not possibly be from the Jiang Sect.

    Or: a Scarlet Pimpernel-inspired fix-it featuring Wei Wuxian in disguise, Lan Wangji determined to bring the nefarious Yiling Patriarch to justice, and the hijinks that ensue when you accidentally marry your greatest enemy/love of your life.

    Summary

    “Did we meet right before whatever landed me in the Cloud Recesses?” he asked, hopefully. “I don’t remember any intention of coming around for a nice visit, did I hit my head?”

    The youths exchanged glances, and proceeded to dash his newly raised hopes in the weirdest fashion possible.

    “You live here,” said the loud one, with exaggerated patience.

    “Bullshit.”

    In which an amnesiac Wei Wuxian concludes from the available evidence that he's been forced into a sham marriage, and acts accordingly.

    “System,” he asked inside his head. Lan Zhan was quite used to AI technology and figured the System might have been programmed by someone to respond to standard questions. “Where am I?”

    There was a map?

    Summary

    In the end, it had been the Yiling Patriarch’s stratagems and his fierce fighting which had turned the tide of the war. He had killed both Wen Ruohan’s sons, and floored the traitor so that Meng Yao could strike the final blow. His status as the strongest warrior on the field had been undeniable.

    Thus, the offer extended to him by the Lan court. Take his place as the Emperor’s consort, the only one permitted to lay hands upon the Emperor, the only one to share his bed with him while he sleeps, unaware and vulnerable. His last, best line of defense.

    Or: Forced by his court to accept a consort, Lan Wangji is certain he has seen enough of the so-called Yiling Patriarch to know what he's getting: an uncouth ruffian. Slowly, he begins to realise that even an emperor's assumptions can be misplaced.
