    Summary

    (Despite the tags, this fic's genre is not really primarily horror. If you're on the fence because horror isn't really your thing, give it a shot!)

    "But when it is said that technology hates Lan Wangji, what is meant is technology sometimes ceases to work around him, often in dramatic fashion.

    This is a problem on an Antarctic research base where not only the research is facilitated by all sorts of impressive technological feats, but also the survival of the people inhabiting that base."

    Or, in which two resident scientist-mages in an Antarctic research base make their own problems, then try to solve them, but must first survive them.

    Summary

    The good news is that Lan Jingyi has found a mentor, friend, and constant companion through the difficulties in life.

    The bad news is that that’s because he’s been accidentally possessed by the Yiling Patriarch.

    now I greet you from the other side
    of sorrow and despair

    Summary

    “Cloud Reccesses Apiary,” says a toneless, deep masculine voice, with zero question in it. Wei Ying doesn’t care, because whoever possesses that voice is probably going to come save him from bees like a fucking hero while wearing like, a suit of armor. That’s what you wear to catch bees, right?

    “I have like, so many bees outside my front door right now,” he says, mouth running out ahead of him before he can even begin to think about reining it in. “It’s like a sandstorm of bees out there. There are so many bees. I got out of my car and there were just bees and I don’t want these bees. Do you want these bees? Please tell me you will come get these bees. I can’t leave my house and I have enough food for maybe a week but then I’m gonna have to learn how to cook dry beans and no one wants that, especially not me.” Wei Ying runs out of air, takes a breath, and belatedly adds, “My name is Wei Ying. Hi.”

    Or: The beekeeping AU that no one asked for.

    Summary

    Through the window, boats drift in a mirror of the yawning sky, fringed with wide lotus leaves and the pale yellow blossoms that grow year-round. Geese call in the distance. And there again, drifting through the air—the scent of sesame shaobing, and hot dry noodles, and the sizzle-pop of frying oil. Like the heat-haze of summer, softened with time. Like the taste of home.

    Or, four meals Wei Wuxian shares during his travels, and one he shares with his soulmate.

    Summary

    "I was just wondering what snacks or sweets Hanguang-Jun prefers with his tea."

    Wei Wuxian laughs, opens his mouth, and then has the horrible realization that he really, truly, doesn't know.

    It takes a moment to sink in. He's known Lan Zhan ever since he was fifteen, had saved the Cultivation world together with him twice over, is actually married to the man, and Wei Wuxian doesn't know what his favorite tea snack is.

    Summary

    “I am going to Yanli-jie’s,” Lan Zhan grits out. “To film,” he adds pointedly, hitching his bag full of filming equipment a little higher on his shoulder.

    “At her flat?” asks his brother, eyes twinkling.

    “Yes,” says Lan Zhan resignedly.

    “Wonderful,” says Lan Huan. “Although, those sandalwood notes of your cologne - while very lovely and intense - good choice, brother... I don’t think they’re quite strong enough for your channel’s viewers to catch.”

    Lan Zhan exhales. Here it comes.

    “Unless,” says Lan Huan, “The reason for all this is at your friend’s flat instead? A person, perhaps?”

    (AU where film student Lan Zhan is an accidental vlogging sensation under the name Hanguang-jun, keeps running into his best friend Jiang Yanli’s younger brother far more frequently than he’d like, and suffers.)

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian has been wandering alone for six months when he suddenly stops writing. This is deeply concerning to at least a few people. Jiang Cheng is not among them.

    No, really, he's not.

    (Or, the one where Wei Wuxian vanishes and Lan Wangji, reluctantly, asks for Jiang Cheng's help tracking him down.)

    Summary

    High Fantasy/Science Fiction AU.

    The cot looked like a death trap. It was held together by a bunch of leather straps connected to a metal frame. Even with a mattress put on top it looked like a torture device.

    "If I die in the night, I will come back to haunt you," Wei Wuxian said, eyeing it.

    "It is not for you," Lan Wangji said.

    "What? I'm a prisoner. Of course I'm taking the cot."

    "You are a guest and you are taking the bed."

    "I'm not taking the bed. Come on, I can't let you sleep on that. If you die everyone will blame me."

    "I will not die."

    Summary

    "Xichen has loved his brother so much he thinks his heart might bear him ill will at this point. He will always ache when he is gone, like one of his arms is missing. He will try to soothe his brother’s troubled heart for a thousand years, if loving this boy is what will bring Wangji the most happiness, but it pricks at him like a doctor’s needles to see his brother’s open devotion treated like nothing by its very object."

    ----
    Lan Xichen and the brother he loved and nearly lost.

    Summary

    All around him, summer throbs like a heartbeat, undeniably alive. Wounds begin to heal.
    And Wei Wuxian, with sweat on his brow, feels ripe. Wei Wuxian, with his hands deep in the soil and mud between his toes, remembers something simple and primitive and utterly transformative:
    It feels good to make things grow.

    OR:

    Wei Wuxian's travel guide to finding your place in the world.

    Summary

    You would think it would be difficult to accidentally rob a bank! So did I.

    (From a post by Feynites: “I’d like to see John Mulaney play a live action Riddler. But not, like, as any character other than John Mulaney? Just this socially awkward disaster man who somehow becomes a supervillain because of a misunderstanding he couldn’t correct without ‘seeming rude’.”)
