Summary
Nureyev does not believe in a god, but it would be funnier, he thinks, if there was one. Not for the redemption. Simply because, at least, then there would be someone to amuse with the show of a life he is putting on.
In which the Carte Blanche has submarine lights and Peter Nureyev is more traumatized than he wants to think.

Summary
Lan Zhan blinked, and pushed his wet hair off his forehead as he slid off his surfboard and stood upright. Wei Ying was standing on the beach, holding a pair of sandals and staring out, his sand-covered bare feet carefully out of reach of the actual water. There was a strange, mournful twist to his mouth that faded when he saw that he wasn’t alone, replaced by a warm smile. “Lan Zhan, is that you?”
“Mn,” he replied, and walked up to meet him there in the middle of the sand. Privately, he thought, who else would it be?
Wei Ying laughed. “I thought so, but I wasn’t sure. You looked good out there.”

Summary
Wei Wuxian drops his hand, leans one shoulder into the stunted door frame. “Oh. Okay. So. Why are you here, exactly?”
“The Institute sent me to assist you,” the ridiculously beautiful cardigan owner says, “as your familiar.”
Wei Wuxian laughs as if it’s a joke, although the man’s stony expression makes it clear that any humor gleaned from him is likely unintentional.
“Well, uh, I appreciate your,” Wei Wuxian says, “you know, time, but everything is under control here, actually.”
With impeccable timing, a tea-kettle sound keens from the kitchen, followed by a contained bang.
—
Or: Wei Wuxian is a witch, Lan Wangji is sent to be his familiar. They figure it out.

Summary
Lan Wangji had long since stopped thinking of Wei Wuxian's body as Mo Xuanyu's. He grew used to all the ways it was different and the same from the last. But slowly, surely, now that they were comfortable, Wei Wuxian's face had begun to change again. The lines of his jaw became a slightly smudged drawing. Not all together unfamiliar, just enough that Lan Wangji second-guessed his own memory. There was one night Lan Wangji came home to find Wei Wuxian's eyes had changed color. He woke one morning and was taller, his silhouette stretching and growing like a shadow cast against the wall.
His smile was the same. The way he pouted, and slept in, the way he kissed. His terrible jokes. Lan Wangji would get used to a new face too if the husband was still the same.
-
Or, the one where Wei Wuxian's face begins to change to look like his original body. It isn't easy on anyone. But it isn't so bad, either.

Summary
Wei Ying disappeared thirteen years, ten months, and two weeks ago. At any moment Lan Wangji could pull this number into his mind with no difficulty whatsoever. They were nineteen at the time, freshmen in college. Not quite friends and certainly not anything else. But Wei Ying always had a brightness to him that lit every room and then one day it was gone and Lan Wangji has never quite been able to forget him.
Thirteen years later, he accidentally finds him again.
