    Summary

    Shen Yuan wakes up to the sound of crying.

    He lies there for a moment, feeling like cling film stretched too tightly over something pointy, in danger of tearing down the middle but holding on by his fingernails. It’s dark, it’s smelly and he is laying face down against a heated stone floor, or maybe it’s just some faux stone tiles for the nature aesthetic. It feels like his brain got replaced with moss or cotton or balled up, wet paper towels that’s coming apart. In the stretched out moment where he takes it all in, he decides this fucking place sucks, and he will never visit again.

    The crying is to his left.

    -

    Shen Yuan wakes up in the Ling Xi caves, and he is not alone.

    Summary

    Jiang Yanli hadn’t heard that arrogant tone from him in years and it irked her to hear it now, directed at her. She didn’t have to take that.

    Jin Zixuan was reeling back with a hand cradling his nose before she even realized that she’d punched him.


    When Jiang Yanli finds herself in the past after dying at Nighless City, she decides that some things need changing.

    Summary

    Transmigration is a dream come true. It’s only a shame he has this of all things come true. Him! As Ming Fan! The boy who grew up only to die of ants. It had been an almost well-deserved death, sure, but Shen Yuan is the one in the body now and he would rather fucking not.

    -

    A humble transmigrator is assigned a role he does not find particularly flattering. Can he please get recast?

    Summary

    In the years following the Sunshot Campaign, the mysterious, masked cultivator who’d defeated Wen Ruohan took on many identities: the Yiling Patriarch, leader of the Wen rebels, enemy of the Jin Sect, practitioner of wicked tricks. His true name was shrouded in mystery. He always wore a mask. He carried no sword; wore no clan colors or insignia. Clouds of resentful energy clung to him as he walked.

    But there was one thing that absolutely everyone agreed on: the Yiling Patriarch could not possibly be from the Jiang Sect.

    Or: a Scarlet Pimpernel-inspired fix-it featuring Wei Wuxian in disguise, Lan Wangji determined to bring the nefarious Yiling Patriarch to justice, and the hijinks that ensue when you accidentally marry your greatest enemy/love of your life.

    Summary

    "So it's a bet?" Jiang Cheng said. "Dance the showcase if you get him, fancy coffee machine if you don't?"

    Wei Wuxian considered the machine. "Fine. You're on. I want it in red."

    "Don't start planning your caffeine overdose yet."

    "It's in the bag," Wei Wuxian said cheerfully. "There's no way they'll match me with someone like Lan Wangji."

     
    Teaching Lan Wangji to dance in front of the nation for twelve weeks, how hard can that be? Wei Wuxian is about to find out.
