Summary
“If you’re going to get married,” Jiang Cheng ground out, “then you’re going to damn well get married at Lotus Pier.”
Wei Wuxian blinked once. Again. Then: “what?”
Or: the one with sibling reconciliation, brother-in-laws from hell, and Jiang Cheng trying to sort through his feelings while acknowledging them as little as possible.

Summary
Instead of acting as accomplice in the Sedition of Imbibitor Lunae, the craftsman of the High Cloud Quintet proved his loyalty to the Xianzhou with his life, ending the planned destruction before it ever began. When the general of the Luofu dived into Scalegorge Waterscape himself, he found only the half-mad Vidyadhara, and a hair stick, with a strand of soft white locks still strangled around the polished branch.
The Ten-Lords commission ordered death as a penalty for manslaughter. Dan Feng pleads guilty. The preceptors argued for 500 years in the Shackling Prison.
Jing Yuan made it 200, with three more centuries of service at the Alchemy commission.
Then some more years slip away. The streets know him as a criminal driven mad by betrayal. The Vidyadhara know him as a High Elder plagued by past mistakes.
Yet even maple trees, painted crimson by the autumn, may live to see another spring. -

Summary
But as with all things, dreams must come to an end, so Nahida sighs and focuses on more important matters. Such as, the stunned girl with white hair sprawled on her knees, leaflets nestled in her braid. She looks up at Nahida with a completely bewildered expression. It’s like looking into a mirror.
Nahida looks down. Black knee length shorts.
“Oh. Whoopsies.”
“Whoopsies,” Scaramouche says, and her own voice comes out. “That’s all you’ve got? Whoopsies?”
Sometimes, getting to know a person is to walk a mile in their shoes, literally. Other times it’s taking pictures of the things you like, and going for joyrides in the middle of the night. It’s about finding a friend you never knew you needed, in the last place you’d ever look. About wishing you were worth sticking around for, and realizing you were enough all along.
