Summary
Only one day into marriage and he’s already been betrayed. By his soulmate, no less.
“You’re not embarrassed at all,” Wei Wuxian says slowly, feeling a disbelieving grin creep onto his face. “You just like making things difficult, don’t you?”
Lan Zhan smiles.

Or: married wangxian play 10 (ish) rounds of “guess the love song”.

Bookmarker's Notes
Lan Zhan’s every bit a light-bearer as before, but where he used to be distant starlight, now he's lotus ponds under the sun– every movement a shimmering ‘welcome home’, warm to the touch and there, always there whenever Wei Wuxian reaches out.

Summary
“Okay,” Wei Wuxian says into his shoulder, and “I love you,” much, much quieter, into the pillow as he shifts closer. The rustle of sheets is more than loud enough to hide it. Still, he tenses with the danger of it, anticipating.
Lan Zhan’s breaths are even. Wei Wuxian swallows down what tastes like disappointment.

In which Wei Wuxian is a ghost, and then he isn’t; Lan Wangji is alone, and then he isn’t; and grief is difficult to outrun. They figure it out.

Bookmarker's Notes
Wei Wuxian considers the pain he feels over years missed, and compares it to Lan Zhan’s, over years spent alone and searching. It’s the same shape, just a different colour.

Summary
Wei Wuxian opens one eye, sneaking a peek at the paper, then both. It’s gone. The flame burns freely and uninterrupted. The curse– the curse should be broken, now, right? He hazards a look at Lan Zhan and his heart thumps in his chest like it’s trying to prove a point.
“Fucking hell,” he says under his breath.
“Wei Ying?”
“I– yeah. Sorry, um. Technical difficulties.”
--
Wei Wuxian gets cursed with lovey-dovey bitch syndrome. Modern magic uni AU.

Bookmarker's Notes
Wei Wuxian collects pieces of Lan Wangji as they’re given, like pebbles and seaglass, things to turn over in his fingers later
—-
Maybe if he pays enough attention to how this feels, he’ll learn how to replicate it on his own. Maybe when all this is over he’ll still choose Lan Zhan. Maybe Lan Zhan will choose him back.
—-
Standing on the edge of this moment isn’t the precipice he thought it would be. Or a tightrope or shackles or any of the things he’s always associated with giving himself to someone. This is a front door, and this is him knocking, and Lan Zhan– Lan Zhan, standing in the middle of the sidewalk, a hundred questions on his face, looks like every version of home Wei Wuxian can come up with.
—-
I love you enough to make myself think I was cursed, Lan Zhan, isn’t that ridiculous? As if loving you could be a curse.

“You might be surprised, Namjoon-ah,” Yoongi says. “I’m sure there’s someone out there for you.”
Namjoon isn’t entirely convinced that he’s going to find this someone on Jack’d of all places, but he’s willing to give it a try.
-OR-
Ten years after his divorce, Namjoon finally feels ready to date again. He expects the dick pics, ab shots, and overall jerks on the dating app. What he doesn’t expect is Jimin.

Summary
When Jimin's friends decide they want to summon a ghost in his apartment on Halloween, he thinks they're crazy. But what starts out as a joke turns into something far more serious, and may somehow involve Min Yoongi, a shy and sweet stranger.
____
Suddenly, he feels a small shift in the air behind him that has him standing on edge and for a moment Jimin forgets that there are others in the apartment with him, the void blackness swallowing up his mind.
Then, he tenses and feels a single freezing finger touch the nape of his neck and trail down the slope of his shoulder.
Jimin screams.

It’s cold, really very cold, and so it’s easy to feel the edge of Yoongi’s breath against his face. The darkness tilts.
Frozen, Jimin thinks through the haze in his mind, is this the moment?

"I've never called you baby before," Namjoon grins. It's funny as hell, his best friend fucked up and silly on post-surgery meds. Hurts a little too, like falling into a daydream of what they could be.
"Yeah you have. In... in my head..." Yoongi trails off happily, eyes shutting.

Bookmarker's Notes
The press of Jimin’s ribs to his head feels sturdy and forever. He shuts his eyes when the moment turns more cozy, pulling this scene into his lungs, the sense of warmth everywhere, the near-undetectable shuffle of Jimin’s thumb over the jut of Yoongi’s belly.

Summary
Do you love him? Brother's question tortures him. Wei Ying's such a good quarantine partner. He came rolling his beat-up red suitcase (named Little Apple, containing no apples, just clothes, laptop, dizi, spice rack). He came wearing two masks (and a grin that no masks can contain). Without any prompting, Wei Ying distanced himself, announcing his position in the apartment as he moved through it, as if they were two cooks waltzing in a narrow kitchen (and not two best friends inhabiting a spacious three bedroom/two bath apartment). Lan Zhan, I'm out of the shower! Hallway! Alright, I'm in my room! All clear! (Nevermind Lan Zhan's mind, its severe lack of clarity. Was Wei Ying using his towel? The short blue one? The thin white one?!)
Or, after Wei Ying's apartment goes up in flames in the middle of a pandemic, he comes to live with Lan Zhan. Months go by peacefully, and then one night Wei Ying accidentally kisses him.

He’s already taking a deep breath when he hears someone twisting the doorknob. “Jung Hoseok, I have a bone to pick with you, you absolute asshole,” he starts.
It is not Jung Hoseok.
Definitely not.
Min Yoongi.
Jimin coughs awkwardly into his fist. “Hello,” he finishes.
(In which Jimin has a crush, yells a lot, and maybe falls into like.)

“Patroclus,” Achilles says, voice a bare whisper. Pa-tro-clus. It sounds like I love you when he says it like that. Maybe he’s always said it like that, maybe he’s always meant I love you.

Summary
Flushing in embarrassment, Wei Ying hurries over to A-Yuan and crouches to place his hands on his shoulders. “A-Yuan, that’s enough,” he says. “Sorry, Lan Zhan, he used to go to a different bookstore where they host regular storytimes, I think he thinks you’re the designated storyteller for the day—”
He gets to his feet, holding A-Yuan at his hip, and glances up to look at Lan Zhan. It’s an awful, terrible, horrible mistake. This close, every detail of his face is utterly inescapable.
“Story time,” says A-Yuan, lower lip wobbling dangerously.
Wei Ying glances around, finding people staring curiously at the scene unfolding before them. “A-Yuan,” he hisses urgently. “We need to go. I’ll tell you a story on the way home, okay?”
“Do you really need to go?”
Wei Ying starts at Lan Zhan’s voice. He’s still looking steadily at him, an unreadable expression in his eyes.
(Seven years after running away from home to pursue a story that would expose one of the biggest media scandals in recent years, Wei Ying runs into the last person he’s expecting to see at a quaint, forgotten bookstore he hasn’t set foot in for a very long time.)

“I did not worry. I knew you would be able to take care of yourself.” Lan Zhan closes his eyes briefly, a crease appearing between his brows, and then looks at him again. “But I—I wanted. I waited.”

"Lan Zhan," Wei Ying says carefully, "do you truly not know you have been speaking?"
Lan Wangji claps a hand to his mouth and, to his horror, feels his mouth opening to answer despite having no intention to do so. Clamping it shut again takes a great effort.
Or: The one where Lan Wangji can't stop talking, and a mild amount of chaos ensues.

“It is real.” Lan Zhan’s eyes are like twin moons, pulling Wei Wuxian to shore. “There is nothing more real than this.”

Summary
Wei Wuxian chuckles and starts pushing Lan Wangji's outer robes off his shoulders. "Poor Lan Zhan, subject to such earthly miseries. You must be exhausted, come to bed, come to bed."
"Mm," Lan Wangji says. He raises his arms so that Wei Wuxian can keep undressing him. His clothes will end up on the floor, but no matter. Wei Wuxian's deft hands at his belts are worth wrinkled robes.
"... Goodness, Hanguang-Jun, you wear too many damned layers," Wei Wuxian tells him after a while. "Would it kill you to stop after a reasonable five?"

Wei Wuxian moves into the Jingshi. They sleep together.

"But being yours is the easiest thing I've ever done," Lan Wangji finishes, hot tears prickling anew. "Like breathing. Easier." After all, he needs to be alive to breathe. But when he's dead he'll still love Wei Wuxian.

Summary
A year after Jin Ling's early succession to the position of Sect Leader, a letter is delivered to him under strange circumstances. A night-hunt follows.
Hanguang-Jun shook his head, and played again. This time, the response was slower, almost coy.
“What did it say?” Jin Ling asked.
“Hanguang-Jun asked what it was doing here,” Lan Sizhui translated. “The response was ‘Waiting.’”
