    (and the one who did)

    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

    It was meant to be the best way out of a bad situation.

    In other words, Lan Qiren reflected, it had been a stupid idea the entire time, they had known it was a stupid idea, and they’d all collectively decided to charge straight forward into it regardless.

    And the worst of it was: it had been his idea, too.

    Summary

    “You know, it really is quite funny, if you think about it a certain way,” Nie Huaisang said, and Lan Xichen trembled within what should be the safety and security of his home – of his seclusion.

    He didn’t know who had allowed, or who kept allowing, the Nie sect leader to enter the Cloud Recesses, to come up to his rooms and sit by his window. He didn’t know what spell or talisman or array Nie Huaisang was using to speak with him no matter how many sound-blocking talismans Lan Xichen put up to block against him.

    He didn’t know when he might come, and he didn’t know how to stop him from coming.

    (As another person said, a lifetime ago: I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know!)
