    Summary

    He used to play in the train yard when he was younger, and could run across the tracks without rib cages splintering under his feet. Remembering was hard these days. If he went too far back in his mind, he was in danger of getting stuck there forever, lost in a world where flesh didn't rot off living creatures, and no barricade loomed over the railroad.

    Back then, if someone yelled "Curtis!" Ponyboy asked which one. He didn’t ask anymore. He didn’t need to.

    At the end of the world, Ponyboy Curtis searches for his brothers. Post-Apocalypse AU.

    Summary

    Wei Ying has a lot on his plate right now.

    It’s finals week -- which isn’t so bad. He’s never had to study much to do well in classes. But that just means that things are that much more tense with Jiang Cheng, who, as far as Wei Ying can tell, only takes study breaks long enough to glare at Wei Ying where he sits on the couch playing video games.

    It’s not studies that have Wei Ying stressed out. It’s everything else. It’s the recruitment for the research trial he’s coordinating. It’s jiejie and her impending marriage to His Royal Douchebag Jin Zixuan. It’s the volunteer work at the palliative care facility. It’s Wen Ning’s worsening condition. It’s Wen Qing working herself thin to care for her brother and Wen Yuan. It’s the way Wen Yuan never seems to have enough food.

    There’s enough on Wei Ying’s plate already, meaning it’s not entirely welcome when he comes home and finds a man standing in his bedroom. A man in extravagant white robes, a ribbon tied around his forehead, long hair gathered into a topknot, fist clutching a sword at his side, who asks him, “Where am I?”

    Summary

    Wei Ying’s life is flying apart at the seams.

    Every day he spends trying to hold together the pieces of it: his career, his family, his own health as he careens towards a breakdown.

    But every night, he finds himself enveloped in silence. A gray world, with only the quiet of wind and leaves and grass and water. And the man, beautiful and straight-backed and steady, as much a part of the landscape of the dream as the lake or the sky.

    Wei Ying doesn’t know what to do with these dreams. He supposes they come from his yearning for peace, except he has never known himself to want this quiet grace. Maybe the soul hungers for things far out of sight from the mind. Perhaps what he needs is this gentle, gray landscape filled with silence.

    Then, the man speaks, and the world begins to fall into color.

    Dream AU: Wherein Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian fall asleep and share dreams together.
