    Summary

    Eight months after surviving the First Siege of Burial Mounds, the Yiling Patriarch, stronger than ever before, asks for Hanguangjun's hand in marriage.

    To refuse Wei Wuxian is not really an option and Lan Wangji, still recovering from the events of Nightless City, is left learning to live with a man he barely recognises.

    Summary

    If you can’t build a giant wooden horse and fake a plague to ensure good relations with your brother-in-law, then how the hell do people survive family gatherings?

    Wei Wuxian is being victimized for being a dutiful family man and a genius, and he will lodge a complaint as soon as his throat doesn’t feel like a rocky desert anymore.

    Thirteen years after disappearing at sea, Wei Wuxian returns home to a son who is now a young man and a husband who is even more reserved than before. As he reunites with family and old friends and tries to figure out how he fits into the picture now, a number of mysteries prey on his mind. Why is everyone trying to marry presumed widower Lan Wangji? What happened in Justice twelve years ago? Who is really responsible for the sack of the temples of Nightless City? Did Jiang Cheng actually mellow out? (yes) Is Lan Sizhui the best boy? (obviously) And could it be that Lan Zhan possibly has…feelings for him?? (omg, wwx, you absolute muppet)

    Summary

    ‘ Marriage,’ Lan Wangji had said, ‘you will marry me. You can dispose of me however you please, after you are done, but you will marry me first’.
    The Laozu had risen from his seat, walked with his hands behind his back, black robes flowing as if a river would. He had walked close, too close, by the time Lan Wangji had realised that he stood with only his brother by his side and the crowd had cowered to another edge, it was late.

    Or, at twenty one, Lan Wangji makes a sacrifice to end the war that had been raging for four years. He agrees to marry the older Yiling Laozu, who rules over the dead.

    Summary

    Lan Wangji is offered up as a war prize at the end of the war. Not wishing to be anyone's prize, but knowing he doesn’t have much of a choice, Lan Wangji agrees but only if someone can defeat him in a sword fight. He knows no one comes close to his abilities, except for one person. And perhaps, he wouldn’t mind becoming that person’s prize after all.

    Summary

    Hiraeth (Welsh): A deep homesickness; an intense longing for something irretrievably lost.

    "And what becomes of us? The likes of me?"

    Lan Zhan shrugs. "They just have to be loved till they learn to believe," he says, looking straight into Wei Ying's eyes, as if it's only the most blatant truth, as if he has no reason to avert his eyes, as if it really is just that simple.

    "The likes of you."

    The Jiang Tech prodigy falls into an arrangement of mutual bedroom favours with his so-called nemesis, the second Lan heir, assuming the odds against them are high enough for complications like feelings to never rear their head. It takes a particularly wretched intervention for him to realize just how naive he had been.

     

    OR: same old finding love, losing it, and getting it back.

    Summary

    Extreme sports show host Wei Wuxian incurs a head injury while mountain climbing and wakes up with no memory of the last five years of his life— including his painful divorce with his college sweetheart, Lan Wangji.

    “Working out, hosting a show, travelling,” Wei Wuxian mumbles, eyes drooping. “Do I at least buy groceries every now and then to make up for it?”

    Lan Wangji watches him drift to sleep. He doesn’t get to answer Wei Wuxian’s question, and he’s all the more thankful for it. He knows what Wei Wuxian is really asking: ‘where do you fit into all of this?’

    The answer is, he doesn’t.

    Summary

    Lan Xichen squeezes his arm once and lets go. Lan Wangji tries not to miss the warmth as the man continues, “Do not worry, Wangji. We have invited Young Master Wei and I am sure that he can help us break the curse. If there is anyone in the world whom I trust to do it, it is him.”

    All of a sudden, recognition sparks at the surname. It catches him off guard, after everything that happened in the short span of time, the familiarity in the name grips him with hope. Lan Xichen stood and Lan Wangji raises his head and speaks, almost without thinking, “Wait.”

    The smile on Lan Xichen’s face falters. “What is the matter?”

    “Young Master Wei,” Lan Wangji repeats even though the words do not fit his mouth right. It feels wrong even though he does not know why. He needs to know why. “What is his name?”

    A night hunt leads to Lan Wangji forgetting everything except for his cultivation and his inexplicable connection to a person he cannot even remember - Wei Ying.

    Summary

    It was Wei Ying’s idea to come to the beach. In her defense, they were already in Zhoushan, a boat’s ride away from some of the nicest beaches in the entire country, and Lan Zhan hasn’t been on vacation in the last two years. The last time Lan Zhan had gone on vacation, it was because Wei Ying had wheedled her into staying behind a few days once they wrapped up their case of a hungry ghost haunting in Huangshan. They’d lazed about by the river, Wei Ying had gone skinny dipping after dark, and then Lan Zhan fingered her until she came twice in a row, without Lan Zhan ever pulling out.

    It had been fun.

    Wei Ying and Lan Zhan go to the beach. Afterwards, they reevaluate what they are to each other.

    Summary

    “I used to catch them when I was a kid,” Wei Ying says suddenly. “If you catch them -” His hands dart out and close around a firefly, perhaps two or three. He stares down at the light, bumbling harmlessly against his palms. “I would crush them. You can paint your fingers with the light, and you’ll glow. Not for long. Just a few minutes, maybe.”

    His expression is thoughtful. Still relaxed. Lan Wangji watches him, and lets his own thoughts flow through him, and after a moment Wei Ying opens his hands and lets the fireflies go.

    Summary

    Lan Zhan takes a breath. His hands are in fists on his thighs. He stares down at them hopelessly, then carefully unclenches them, one finger at a time, before taking another breath and reaching for his lukewarm tea. He'll go out, tomorrow. Maybe in the late afternoon. Something quick. Something easy. He'll text his brother first, the short note of when he should be home, so he'll know to track him. He'll be fine, just like he said.

    Summary

    The reboot completes, and Wei Ying’s brain smashes this information together into two mind-shattering thoughts. Number one, he knew very well already, and is now further seared by defined muscles and a mouth-watering tattoo into his every waking moment: Lan Zhan is the hottest fucking person on the planet.

    Number two: that guy wasn’t visiting Lan Zhan’s neighbour, he was visiting Lan Zhan, which means:

    Lan Zhan fucks.
    Lan Zhan fucks.
    Lan Zhan fucks.

    ;

    Lan Zhan has been Wei Ying's best friend for years. Literally, years. How did he not already know? How has he missed this most important of facts? And more importantly, how is he ever going to get over it?

    Summary

    “My mother,” he begins, and Wei Ying stops in his tearing up of the grass, and tilts his head to listen. This is one of the things about him that makes Lan Zhan’s heart weak with affection: for someone so loud and constant, his ability to go quiet and listen is unmatched. Wei Ying will be careful with the memories Lan Zhan gives him, he thinks. “My mother used to do it for me. When I was small. I sat on her lap and she braided my hair and we watched the trees sway outside the window.”

    ;

    Lan Zhan loves and loses and loves again.

    Summary

    The main screen flashes to life across the Bridge, and Lan Wangji has to grip the back of a chair to stop himself from falling over.

    Because there, blown up to ten times life size and staticy with the void surrounding them, is Wei Ying.

    Wei Ying, who flashed into Lan Wangji’s life like a supernova, all those years ago in Nav School, burning bright and hot and unreachable. Wei Ying, who lit Lan Wangji’s world on fire, dragged him in unwillingly by his everything, right into that inescapable light. Wei Ying, who did what all supernovas do, and burnt out in a spectacular display of power, until there was nothing left but darkness.

    Wei Ying, who has been dead for thirteen years.

    ;

    In the silent, empty vastness of space, Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian find each other again.

    Summary

    Since he was a child, since Lan Wangji had first become aware of his own alienating effect on others, he has long resigned himself to a loveless marriage. Perhaps even a companionate one, so long as his partner was agreeable and unbothersome and let him have his own space.

    He could not have even begun to predict Wei Wuxian.
