Summary
**For the MDZS Chinese New Year Gift Exchange**
Prompt was: "What if Wei Wuxian heard and remembered Lan Wangji in the cave when he said the name of the song he was humming is wangxian, or if he remembered the scene in the novel where Lan Wangji confessed to Wei Wuxian after the battle at Nightless City."
Oh boy. Okay. So I took this prompt and essentially said "What if Wei Wuxian being a little more aware (thanks to hearing Lan Wangji) resulted in a "drop of water makes a ripple" situation. So out went canon and in came a crazy world building where everything is different and everyone is (hopefully) still complicated but well meaning.

The Untold Story of Magister Krasus (and how he became more than just Korialstrasz's alter ego) by fallingsuns

Summary
As Krasus stood at the precipice of the temple he could think of nothing else besides his children. Rhonin, red haired, wild and oh so clever. And Katya, dear sweet Katya. Her hair as white as snow and her heart as bright as the sun. Perhaps Alexstrasza was right, perhaps he wasn't as committed to their brood as he should be, but how could he commit himself to something so shallow after he had felt what a true connection, what a true family meant?
You will not let this break you, he told his daughter as she sobbed in his arms, her heart lying broken at their feet. You are stronger than any man.
The world will keep spinning despite us and our actions, he told his son, as he thrashed awake from yet another nightmare. Our mistakes only stay mistakes if we refuse to learn from them.
He foolishly wishes for one last moment with them, to be able to hold them close and promise them that it will all be all right. How utterly sentimental of him, the other Dragonkin would say, how completely mortal. Perhaps, Krasus thinks, as he feels the flames licking his arms, that is not as bad as they all think it is.
AKA a creative retelling of Azeroth's history involving everyone's favorite Red Dragonkin/

Summary
“Come to Tarth.” Ser Brienne said, her scarred face grave, the memory of the battlefield still playing out in her eyes. They’d scarcely spoken more than a passing word since the fighting had come to an end. She couldn’t bare to look at him, he thought, and the image of her, shrunken and heartbroken, was seared on his sullen heart, scarred and battered as it was, there’d been fresh flesh enough left over to be devoted wholly to that single injury.
“I don’t come alone, Ser.” He said, nodding down at the babe sleeping in the narrow cot—nothing like the splendid cradle crafted for Joffrey before he was born, gilded gold and decorated with lions and stags.
“Then I take him under my protection also.” Brienne swore, and Jaime knew he could trust her and the power of her word. “No harm will befall him in my house that I can prevent and no wrong go unpunished where I can avenge him.”
Knights and lords had made vows of lesser conviction to both his crowned sons, and Jaime’s eyes burned, his throat ached.
