    Summary

    “Make me so ugly that no one will ever want me,” he says. “Please.”

    Or: Lan Wangji is kidnapped from the Lan Clan when he's still a small child. He retains no memories of his real identity, and only knows himself as a servant at Madam Ji's brothel. When the clients begin to look at him with interest, he finds someone to curse him and take away his true appearance, and with it any chance of ever finding his family.

    (Not a brothel fic, that's only the starting point. A Wangxian story. A Twin Jades story.)

    Summary

    Within the Cloud Recesses, the ghost of the feared Yiling Laozu haunts the Jingshi.

    Only one person could see him- and he was just three years old.

    Sharing a special connection despite memories lost, Lan Yuan spent no time adopting the ghost into his life, sharing mutual comfort with the hurting spirit. So when he was questioned for the red ribbon in his hands, carrying feelings of comfort and the man who’s face wept like a mourning mothers, he lied.

    “Mama gave it to me.”

    Through an inquiry session borne of concern, Lan Wangji discovers a lingering spirit. And so as the cultivators turn to Empathy, emotions and truths are revealed, while love and family blossoms in the wake of painful memories. One change at a time, one truth at a time, after forgetting what it was like to be themselves, the Yiling Laozu and Hanguang-jun learn how to face the world together despite the separation of death.

    Summary

    Wei Ying does not have a crush on Lan Zhan anymore. Those feelings have been gone for a long time. He's over Lan Zhan. He is.
    Deep down, he knows they'll never be compatible in a relationship. Even though Lan Zhan is gay. Even though Lan Zhan is also into BDSM. Because Lan Zhan is a Dom.

    And so is he.

    -

    or, Wei Ying makes some very wrong assumptions about Lan Zhan's preferences, finds out just how far from the truth he is, and immediately makes a plan to fix it.
