    WOW, this is good. Terrifically brought characters to life (and not just by resurrecting Dominic, lol).

    Saw Banshees in the theater last year, and it bruised my heart a bit (in the best way). So it was very random that I even ended up in the ao3 tag all this time later, but I’m so glad I did. This fic scratched such an itch.

    I love Madam Lan fics! I’m also very into stories where she runs into Wei Wuxian, and variations on their subsequent rapport.

    Something also real good about Liu Meihui having crossed paths with Cangse Sanren in the past and thinking, “Damn, if this thing took her out, I don’t know how the hell I’m supposed to manage,” while risking her life nonetheless to do what she can for this sad little kid she found the day before.

    Summary

    In order to make Wei Wuxian feel welcome at the Cloud Recesses, and to make sure people give him the respect he deserves (and definitely not to get into his pants), Lan Wangji hires him to be his advisor.

    or

    “Lan Zhan, did you hire me just so you could punish people for disrespecting me?”

    “No,” Lan Wangji said. “It is a side benefit.”

    “Why did you hire me?”

    “Because you are knowledgeable and skilled,” Lan Wangji said, “and I trust you to assist me in my work.”

    Because everything is easier with you around and because I feel like a part of me is missing without you and because you can say things I can’t and because I need you he did not say.

    “And you secretly like being a bitch to people,” Wei Wuxian added, with a sly grin.

    Summary

    u r my soulmate, she sends with zero hesitation, grinning when her phone buzzes almost immediately.

    Hi, this is DoorDash connecting you to your Dasher for updates about your order. It says, yet again, and then, Really.

    So dry, so cute! Wei Ying doesn’t know this person but she likes them already. The ability to play into her antics is not one possessed by everyone, so she will value it when she finds it, yes 😳

    I am glad to know that, Hanguang Jun replies in an instant.

    Wei Ying wants to play it really cool and really fun but she’s also absolutely starving and so she sends, what’s going on over there

    A long line.

    Then, because she decides she wants to go back to being fun she types out, its okay just hold on i cant wait to see u

    I cannot wait to see you either.

     

    or, wei ying has probably been talking to the dasher who keeps bringing her her late night pancakes a little too much and this has absolutely nothing to do with her tiny, miniscule crush on Lan Zhan

    Summary

    Wen Qing died.

    This, she knows; from the painful lick of flames to the unavoidable choking that came with the smoke to the wickedly satisfied grin on Jin Guangshan’s face before she closed her eyes the last time. She hoped, those last few moments, that it would be the end. Wei Wuxian would be free, and the last remnants of their family would be safe. She hoped that Wen Ning wouldn’t feel any pain, when the time came for him to follow her.

    -

    Or, the one where Wen Qing ends up in the past and fixes the future.

    Summary

    The problem with CT Wei was, lamentably, not incompetence. Incompetence was a failing no one at the Gusu Bureau of Cultivation could forgive. Had he been incompetent, he would have already been dismissed from his position. No, the problem with CT Wei was far worse: he was friendly.

     

     

     

     

     

    There's a new forensic cultivator in the GBC.

    Lan Wangji is unimpressed.

    The Cloud Recesses can only be found by those in need.

    As of ch6, ShanaStoryteller is, like... Enlightened. Hottest takes (via Jin Ling) only.

    Lan Wangji gives him a tolerant look that makes Jin Ling want to scream. “Wei Ying has been through much. He’s had to shoulder so much responsibility for so long. He deserves a chance to enjoy his freedom and see the world. He’s earned at least that much.”

    It’s a sweet sentiment, but really just confirms Jin Ling’s suspicions. Lan Wangji is an idiot. “What are you talking about? Uncle Ying loves responsibility!”

    Lan Wangji raises an eyebrow and Jiang Cheng snorts.

    Jin Ling changes his mind. They’re both idiots.

    [ins. incensed nephew listing off myriad ways in which WWX has historically excelled in leadership roles, has taken charge in perilous situations and helped people where others would balk at doing the same]

    [rant continues—] “Uncle Ying is so notorious for taking responsibility for shit that Sect Leader Nie constructed a whole convoluted revenge plot around the idea that if only he stuck Uncle Ying in the middle of a problem, he’d go to any lengths to fix it . . . If Uncle Ying isn’t given enough responsibility, he’ll invent some.” (rip me)

    fic is summarized well by its author’s notes—

    jin ling, fishing wei wuxian out of the garbage: finders keepers

    alternative title: "jin ling yells at people who don't love wei wuxian correctly"

    Also. Mianmian and baby Mianmian are here (Mr. Mianmian too). Jin Ling actively enjoys Wen Ning’s company, crushes on Jingyi, and unknowingly battles Sizhui for fatherly affection. Just. So much good stuff going on.

    The problem was that he didn’t remember anymore why he’d left. Sure, something about finding himself or discovering his place in the world, or whatever other bullshit he’d talked himself into to end up in the middle of nowhere. Alone.
    He missed Lan Zhan.

    Wei Wuxian sets off alone after the events at Guanyin Temple and finds himself in pretty serious trouble.

    “That’s your dad?” Jingyi asks slowly.

    “Yes?” Sizhui sits up a little, propped on his elbows. He feels wrong-footed, and glances back at the picture for some sort of hint as to what’s going on. “Why?”

    Jingyi sits up, too, and hands the phone back.

    “Your dad is my dad’s ex-husband,” he says bluntly. “Come on. Get your jacket. We’ll need ice cream for this one.”

    It’s a very strange way to have your life turned completely upside down, Sizhui thinks.
