    Summary

    The streets they drove around were not familiar to him at all. They were just as strange to him as the first time he entered the Jiang family's residence, and the first time he attended their high school. A few residents were out and about this time of day—walking their dog, watering or mowing the lawn, kids playing with frisbees. But for a split second, he felt it. Call it déjà vu, call it a memory—but he imagined a tiny, 3-year old version of himself, sitting on his dad’s shoulders, giggling at his mom making a silly face to the both of them, the family of three strolling down the street on a Saturday morning just like this one.

    The car rolled to a stop at an intersection, and didn’t move again.

    After a minute, Lan Zhan turned to him. “Wei Ying?”

    It was strange. He didn’t remember his parents at all, yet he missed them terribly. How could he miss something he didn’t remember?

    ...

    Wei Ying seeks to uncover the mystery surrounding his parents' perplexing deaths, all while he tries to realize a future with his boyfriend.

    Summary

    Lan er-gege’s brows furrow. “Neither of us have any reason to participate in such activities,” he points out. The pout on his partner’s face deepens.

    “But look! We’re in the company of two beautiful women who also happen to be named Wei Ying and Lan Zhan! I bet we’re looking at our reincarnated selves from the future.” He winks at Wei Ying. “Wow, I look amazing as a woman. You sure you wouldn’t want to try, Lan er-gege? With her?”

    Lan er-gege purses his lips tighter, as if he doesn’t trust his other head to betray the head on his shoulders and say something completely stupid.

    Summary

    He wonders if they would be back on a boat together without this stupid show. They'd gotten the invite at the same time — a special season focused on siblings. Wei Ying has watched it, of course, all the yachties have. He still thinks that maybe the sibling shtick was not the best idea, it severely limits the opportunities for boat hookups.

    He'd said yes right away, of course. He'd be stupid not to do it, even if he has no music or talent he wants to shill on reality tv. He doesn't want to be a yachtie forever and dubious realty show stardom is his ticket out.

    He teases Jiang Cheng but the truth is that Wei Ying is a romantic at heart. He has a memory of his parents, an early one, barely more than impressions, but he can remember the wind whipping past his ears as his mother held him on his parent's catamaran.

    They'd died at sea. Wei Ying supposes he should find that a comfort, that they died doing what they loved. He doesn't.

    Summary

    “What a stuck-up ass,” he mutters. Which earns him an elbow to the ribs from Jiang Cheng.

    “Oi. Careful how you speak. His family’s old money, you don’t want to get in trouble with them. Better to just stay out of his hair.”

    “Pffft, as if old money was a reason to be impolite to people who just wanted to say hello. I bet if he would take his head out of his butt, we’d actually become good friends real fast.”

    Or: Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji meet in high school, and Wei Wuxian sets out to win his friendship.
