Summary
A happy ending depends on where you stopped the story. Wei Wuxian had never put much faith in such an idle saying.
But his story had ended over a decade ago, and the world had moved too far forward for him to find his own place. What use was a nightmares role in a time of peace, except to hide away and retreat from everyone else's happy ending?
It isn't upsetting. He has people in this world who love him, even if he can't be with them. And it's good, to be alone, figure out how the world has changed under his own standing. Honestly, he's fine alone.
Fortunately, the people who love him refuse to let him be lonely. And sometimes it takes a third chance for the souls to click back into place.
(The one where Wei Wuxian travels alone, only to find home in the place he never dared to hope for. Or alternatively, the one where Lan Zhan holds his soulmate and tells him he can stay.)
