    Summary

    "Anger had finally bubbled up at the surface and determined young Jiang Cheng had pressed on his wound with bitter resignation, as a form of punishment. Bile had burned his throat but at this point, he had forgone sleep and sanity. The pain sizzled up his leg, up and up past his stuttering heart, and right into his tired mind. It had silenced everything as effectively as Zidian tearing through flesh. He kept pressing on it curiously. He felt the stabs of pain dancing in tune with his pulse. His body had taken over for him. The thoughts receded as a primal part of his mind focused on the perceived threat, the pain thrumming quietly.

    Thump, thump, thump.

    Somehow he had finally succumbed to slumber. The next day to his severe disappointment the wound had healed and he had dismissed this bout of insanity as a conjuring of his tired mind.

    Yet, here he is, years later, chasing the same thrill, that glimpse of madness that calmed his racing mind. He hadn’t forgotten it. He couldn’t."

    Summary

    At Lan Zhan’s expectant look, Wei Ying shakily took the other end of the ribbon, hearing a sharp inhale at the motion, and clumsily coiled it around Lan Zhan’s wrist. It reminded him of their adventure in the Cold Spring Cave, but when he looked up from their bound wrists and opened his mouth to mention it, he was struck dumb by the look in Lan Zhan’s eyes.

    An intensity shone out from their golden depths as he clasped Wei Ying’s hands between his larger ones and uttered in a low, fierce voice, “You now have the allegiance of my Sect, of my family, and if necessary, the protection of my body as well.”

    (Or, Wei Ying lives in 21st century China until a fateful day when he falls through time into the ancient cultivation world, where he finds himself torn between returning to his life in the future and the man who has stolen his heart in the past.)

    If Wen Qing had realized sooner that she wasn’t in the afterlife or hallucinating, but had actually traveled back in time, she’d have done things differently. There’d have been less murder, for one thing.

    Summary

    For a moment, he felt it, resentment coiling in his gut.
    He feels so done.
    At eighteen, Wei Wuxian realized, he's done.

    "What does Yu-furen want me to do?"
    "I want you gone from our lives! Away! Somewhere I cannot see you!"

    "From this day forth, I, Wei Wuxian is renouncing my title as the Head Disciple of Yunmeng-Jiang."

    In which after they were saved from the Xuanwu Cave, Wei Wuxian was punished by Yu Ziyuan and he has decided that he had enough. Wei Wuxian defected from Yunmeng-Jiang Sect. He left and he did not look back.

    AND

    “Ah, the rabbits.”
    “You saw them? I wanted to bring some but I figured that Lan Zhan could use some friends.”

    “You said the rabbits have ribbons?”
    “Yes they do, but they didn’t have it when I returned. I think it vanished with Ancestor Lan Yi’s spirit.”
    Lan Xichen’s brows furrowed. Why does he feel like he missed something?

    And in which Lan Xichen realized that something more happened in the Cold Pond Cave.

    Or a story where Wei Wuxian defected from Yunmeng-Jiang Sect before the attack and what happened to him and everyone else after that.

    Summary

    Lan Wangji would do anything he could to shield his brother from pain and sorrow, just like Lan Xichen had done to him when they had been kids, grieving from the departure of their mother and the seclusion of their father. He would do anything, even if it meant he had to bind his soul to a demon, just so his brother could hold Jiang Wanyin again.

    Summary

    His gaze went back towards Lan Xichen’s cold, stone-like features. He could feel the frown on his face deepen and he clasped his hands in front of him again leaning on the table as he considered what he should do. He took a deep inhale trying hard to think of something, anything to ease his conscience that he wasn’t forcing this man into marriage when he wasn’t ready, but also that didn’t hurt the Jiang sect.

    “Doesn’t the Lan clan have strict courting requirements?” He says after a while looking over the Lan elders and sect leader.

    or

    Jiang Cheng and Lan Xichen have been betrothed for 10 years and everything is finally aligning for the sects to proceed. But in order to stop what feels like a forced marriage the Jiang alpha suggests he courts the Lan omega to stall and give the older male time, only to end himself up having to follow the Lan sect's rigid and detailed courting process because of it.

    Summary

    Jiang Cheng is thirteen when his eyes lose the shine that has always mirrored Wei Wuxian’s wild spirit. And then no longer is he a shadow of anyone but merely a shell of himself.

    Here is a man who is served the world, for once, but he has turned a boy who finally stops wishing and wanting all at once.

    Summary

    "It was you...?" Lan Xichen could barely breathe. He looked confused- worse, he looked genuinely wounded.

    "I can explain-" Jiang Wanyin started, taking a step towards Lan Xichen. The elder unconsciously took a step back. Wanyin's expression grew increasingly complicated as well. Did it really pain him that much that Jiang Cheng was the one behind the letters?

    "I saved every letter you wrote me," Lan Xichen rasped, voice trembling. "From the moment I read them, I knew you were- no, I thought you..." He stopped in the middle of the sentence, the taste of salt flooding his mouth as tears streaked his face for the first time since Jin Guangyao's death. "I thought you were mine."

    ---

    In other words, there's a lot of healing to be had following the events at Guanyin Temple. Lan Xichen already heard how Jiang Cheng agonized when they were there, but after Lan Xichen loses his composure in front of Jiang Cheng, can these two frenemies turned confidants finally heal and move forward together?

    Canon divergence starting from after the Xuanwu Cave. What if it wasn't Wang Lingjiao who came to Lotus Pier? What if Wen Ruohan had sent Wen Zhuliu instead? The respectful, sensible Wen Zhuliu, who knows how to work the room...

    In which Wei Wuxian loses his hand (he gets one better), Lotus Pier is saved, the Lan Clan is said to be dead to the last man, there's a horrible banquet in Nightless City, someone accidentally plays Sleeping Beauty, and there's that awkward moment when you realize Meng Yao is the sane one (except not really). It's a dark, dark night, but the sun will rise eventually.

    Lan Sizhui, Lan Jingyi, Jin Ling, and Ouyang Zizhen listened attentively as Wei Wuxian explained his newest invention: a way to send memories to the past. Satisfied that he dealt with all possible paradoxes and running on -2 hours of sleep, he didn't make note of his sons' frankly concerning expressions.

    "We could change everything!" they shouted simultaneously.

    For better or worse, only time will tell.

    Summary

    "Didn't Wangji explain anything about why he dressed you like this?"

    Wei Wuxian feels heat rise in his cheeks at the question. There hadn't been a lot of talking at all, just a million tiny kisses pressed to his skin while Lan Zhan cocooned him in the soft clothes taken from his own closet and called him beautiful and pretty and lovely, all of it things Wei Wuxian can't make himself say out loud. "He said it was only right that I wear this tonight. That I should wear the Lan colors more often."

    Lan Xichen smiles softly at that and eases himself next to Wei Wuxian onto the bed. "I guess I should explain it to you, then."

    OR: How Lan Wangji, Wei Wuxian and Lan Xichen make a polyamorous home for themselves post-canon, featuring explorations of various forms of love (both familial and romantic), a lot of musings on how to leave the past behind and also the Zhuangzi.

    Wei Wuxian fell head over heels in love with Lan Wangji right after arriving at the Cloud Recesses, so when Lan Xichen tells him that Lan Wangji’s life hangs in the balance and he’s the only one who can save him, he doesn’t hesitate to offer his help. Saving him requires dual cultivation, however, and he has never even kissed anyone… And Lan Wangji firmly refuses him too.

    Fortunately, Lan Xichen agrees to teach him the ways of dual cultivation and promises that they can save his brother together.

    Lan Xichen smiled and said, "This Wei-Gongzi once said that he doesn't want to pay attention to any red tape. Let alone not wearing a sword, even if he doesn't wear clothes, what can others do to him? How youthful."

    ——Even if he doesn't wear clothes, what can others do to him?

    Lan Xichen once jokingly repeated Wei Wuxian's words regarding the absence of his sword. 

    However today, Looking at the young man who's lying unconscious on the bed — Lan Xichen realized:

    Others can really do something, when Wei Wuxian has no clothes on!

     

    ...And this "others" referred to himself.

    Summary

    After watching his husband; his son; nephew; brother and little radishes dying in front of him one by one because of a source of resentful energy; Wei WuXian dies too as he destroys it.

     

    But instead of darkness; he finds himself back in the past when he had just gotten kicked out of the cloud recess and everything looks so peaceful he can’t stand it. No…no no no he really can’t go through this hell again. Not again. Not after everything was supposed to be over.

     

    Not knowing that Lan WangJi has been thrown back in time as well; he tries; and fails at taking his own life by slitting his throat open in the middle of lotus pier and so; he decides to show everyone the future.
    If he’s going to live this hell again; he’s going to change it and if these people are suddenly so determined to keep him alive; then he’s not going to let them die either.

     

    It doesn’t matter if they end up hating him just as much as he hates himself.

     

    (Or; another time travel fix-it which happens to be a watching the show fic as well! With our favorite baby boy and his husband; all their ducklings and their very much alive family and friends from the past.)

    She should be strong for them. She should hold them and tell them everything would be all right. All she could do was stand there and cry.

    “What happened, child?” Lao Wang asked softly, staring at the tangle of her brothers. His hands were firmly set on his cane, but there was something soothing about his presence in that moment. It helped that he wasn’t actually looking at her when she started to speak.

    “Father…Sect Leader Jiang found out that my brother and I are not his children. Our mother was an adulteress.” She took a deep breath, wrapping her arms around herself, starting to shake. “He…he kicked us out.”
