    Summary

    Lan SiZhui hands him a bowl of bright red-orange noodles. "Your spicy, sir," he says cheerfully.

    Wei WuXian sniffs it and his eyes immediately start watering. "Oh, you're my new favorite person," he tells Lan SiZhui. "Sorry Lan Zhan."

    "I thought the rabbits were your best friends," Lan WangJi says mildly.

    "They're all tied," Wei WuXian decides. "Anyway, they're my best friends. You were my favorite person. There's a difference. No matter now, you've been eclipsed. Hey, SiZhui, I'm your dad now."

    Lan SiZhui laughs with pleased embarrassment. "Ahah, I figured it was going to happen someday," he says. Wei WuXian isn't sure what he means by that.

    --

    A moment of down time in the Cloud Recesses.

    Summary

    “Your face is a moon,” Song Lan says, very serious.
    Xingchen chews the soft cake slowly, his expression turning thoughtful. Then he swallows it down.
    “Round?” he asks.

    Summary

    A silence blankets the air around them. Wei Wuxian closes his eyes and recaps the last couple of minutes: him asking (a little crudely) what happened, the juniors looking like Lan Wangji had just announced his deep hatred for rabbits, Lan Wangji himself looking like he’d just announced his deep hatred for rabbits, both of them asking the same question, and—

    Realization seeps into Wei Wuxian's bones.

    He looks up at Lan Wangji, and Lan Wangji is staring right back at him, and Wei Wuxian’s lips are still tingling, and Lan Wangji is still poking at his own.

    “You’ve got to be kidding me,” Lan Wangji groans.

    At the same time, Wei Wuxian murmurs, “Ah.”

    (In which Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji investigate a curse and get cursed instead. Everything they try to say comes out of the other person's mouth. It can only go downhill from there.)

    Summary

    Uncle's jaw works in the way that suggests he's about to say something irredeemable. Jin Ling, in a move of diplomacy he hopes the Chief Cultivator appreciates, distracts him with spicy food and his favourite subject: the incompetence of his own officials.

    "I hear the lakes in the south east are having drainage problems?" he asks nonchalantly, sticking three big slices of braised pork belly into his Uncle's bowl.

     

     
    Jin Ling just wants to get through the Discussion Conference with his Sect, his dignity, and his heart intact.

    It wasn’t bone. It was too smooth. It caught the light like something greased.

    And Lan Zhan looks at Wei Ying. Still the same as ever, he thinks. A couple hard-earned grays finally twine around his face. Faint scars etch here and there, one under an eyebrow where the hair sprouts white. He has a bruised shoulder. Summer-chapped mouth. Hands re-callused, smile unchanged.

    Summary

    Here's the thing: it's surprisingly difficult, keeping a body alive. This is, presumably, why Wei Wuxian fucked it up the first time.

    Summary

    Lan Wangji always says the same thing when they’re preparing to leave Gusu: “If you want to stop anywhere, tell me.”

    “Hm?” Wei Wuxian always says, still surprised by the suggestion. He is, after all, only a marginally more acceptable dinner guest than he used to be. “Where would we stop?”

    Yet every time they travel, the number of unexpected detours only increases.

    (Or: seven nights on the road.)

    Summary

    “You don’t think that’s strange?” he says. His voice, his new voice, is familiar now. But sometimes it almost startles him, hearing it come from his mouth. “It’s been nine months. I’ve used them almost every day. I should know how long these legs are.”

    (Or: Wei Wuxian has a plan to train Mo Xuanyu's body. The results aren't quite what he expects.)

    Summary

    As soon as the fire faded from around them, Song Lan found a small flower in his hands. As he watched, one of the many petals flaked off and fell to the ground.

    “It appears to be timed,” he said aloud. “When the petals are all gone, it will have ended. I hope that it's not a dangerous thing, and that it doesn't take too long. What do you think it may be, Xingchen?”

    Xiao Xingchen swallowed and then said, thickly, “I think it makes us speak our thoughts aloud. Zichen, can you try to stop talking?”

    Song Lan did, but as he had half-expected, he could not force his mouth to stay closed. He told Xiao Xingchen as such, and then lowered his voice so he was mumbling his thoughts under his breath.

    (or: how do you keep from confessing when you've been cursed to speak your every thought out loud? you don't.)

    Summary

    One of Hanguang Jun’s rabbits follows him out of Cloud Recesses. It’s white as snow, and far too small to be fully grown, and hops determinedly after him as he goes down the mountain pass.

    Song Lan acquires a new companion for his travels to find some kind of purpose as he remembers, honours and adores the memories of the old.

    Summary

    Lan Zhan has not seen nor heard from Wei Ying in over a month when he returns to Yiling.

    The town is no different to how Lan Zhan had left it, in the market stalls lining the streets and the tea house on the corner - he can almost see Wei Ying running at him while A-Yuan clutched at his leg, and closes his eyes against the flush of humiliation at how little he understood the child at first.

    But Wei Ying won't be in town today: he is not the person Lan Zhan has come here to see - though he is the reason.

    (Or - Wei Ying doesn't sleep - he avoids it at all costs. When he does sleep, it's interrupted by nightmares and terrors. Wen Qing worries about him, but he won't accept her help - so she does the only thing she can think of, and calls the only person more stubborn than Wei Ying.)

    Summary

    "You worry me," Lan WangJi tells him seriously. He puts his hands on Wei WuXian's knees for lack of a better place to put them. Wei WuXian places his own hands on top of Lan WangJi's, presumably to stop him from trying again to check his bandages.

     

    "You don't need to worry," Wei WuXian says. "I swear I'm fine. I'll tell you if something feels off. You know me, I'm a huge crybaby whiner."

     

    Lan WangJi frowns at him again. It's true that Wei WuXian can be a bit of a crybaby, but only about injuries that don't actually matter. When it's something important, like a ghost curse or a fundamentally unstable necromantic practice, Wei WuXian keeps it to himself. "Ridiculous," Lan WangJi tells him. Wei WuXian grins down at him.

    --

    Later, when he’s older, it’s this that A-Yuan will remember most: the stretch of silence, the two of them both dirty and shaking with fever, as he looked at Brother Rich, and Brother Rich looked back at him.

    Summary

    “I used to catch them when I was a kid,” Wei Ying says suddenly. “If you catch them -” His hands dart out and close around a firefly, perhaps two or three. He stares down at the light, bumbling harmlessly against his palms. “I would crush them. You can paint your fingers with the light, and you’ll glow. Not for long. Just a few minutes, maybe.”

    His expression is thoughtful. Still relaxed. Lan Wangji watches him, and lets his own thoughts flow through him, and after a moment Wei Ying opens his hands and lets the fireflies go.
