    Summary

    Wei Wuxian hasn’t spoken with Jiang Cheng since the events of Guanyin Temple, but that’s fine! He prefers it like that. What do the two of them have to say to each other, anyway?

    But when he finds himself with a double of Jiang Cheng from the past, things that Wei Wuxian has been keeping buried start to unravel.

    Summary

    There is a moment—a single heartbeat’s-length of time—when it’s over, and the ghost's possession of his body dissipates, and Lan Wangji’s mind clears. It is like breaking through the surface of fast-moving water to gasp for air.

    He finds himself suspended in midair, mid-fall, trapped—face-to-face, hand-to-hand, so close they breathe the same air—with the man who killed Wei Ying.

    - - -

    Six years after the Yiling Patriarch's death, on what had seemed like an ordinary night-hunt alongside the Jiang sect, Lan Wangji finds himself possessed by a vengeful ghost. Sect Leader Jiang successfully dispels the possession.

    It is afterward that the trouble truly starts.

    Summary

    “Mu Qing,” Xie Lian says carefully, treading like Mu Qing’s a startled cat that might spook. “Feng Xin told me he already confessed. And that you rejected him.”

    Mu Qing blinks. Checks that he’s still retained his grasp on English. Then finally lets it sink in. “I WHAT?”

    Or: Mu Qing is 21, a double major in computer science and fashion, and hopelessly in unrequited love with his best friend-slash-acquaintance-slash-rival-slash-former enemy. If only Feng Xin would stop leading him on like this.

    Summary

    Viktor never escapes the Undercity. He never finds his way to Piltover's Academy. He never takes a job with Heimerdinger and dreams of bigger things. Instead, after ten years as Singed's apprentice, he finds two lost children on the worst night of their lives and gives them a home. In many ways, this changes everything. In others, it changes nothing at all.

    “No. You’re going to do something much worse than killing Silco,” Viktor tells Benzo’s ward. “He wants you dead. Out of his path, as he continues to forge forward. Instead, you’re going to survive.”
    Viktor offers the boy his hand. “We are obstacles. All three of us. We’ll take care of each other."

    I’ll keep him alive. I’ll keep them both alive, he offers Benzo’s ghost. Vander’s, too. A meager attempt at atonement, perhaps, but it's the last thing he has left to give.

    Summary

    He held A-Ling’s little body for hours, rocked him gently in his arms. He held A-Ling until the moment the late night inched into the next morning.

    This time, Jiang Cheng was awake when the world shifted. It took only seconds. The weight of his nephew vanished from his arms. The room around him warped, twisted, contracted.

    He opened his eyes, eyes he hadn’t closed, to morning light in his rooms at Golden Scale Tower.

    Yesterday. Again.
    -----
    There are many contenders for the worst day of Jiang Cheng's life.

    The Nightless City discussion conference has just won.

    And then he wakes up, and it hasn't happened yet. Jiang Cheng soon realizes that, against all odds, he's repeating one day, seemingly the only person who remembers the times before.

    Is it a curse? A second chance? A sick trick from a cruel spirit?

    Whatever the reason, one truth remains: Jiang Cheng has never been good at giving up, even when he can't seem to win.

    Summary

    Lán Wàngjī knew that it wouldn’t mean he’d be gone—Jiāng Chéng loved his family, and Lán Wàngjī was a part of that. It was just that the thought of sharing Jiāng Chéng with someone else, of watching Jiāng Chéng cook for another man or spend the night elsewhere, made waves of jealousy crash over him so fast it left him dizzy.

    Oh no, he thought, watching Jiāng Chéng tap his pen in beat to the piano keys. How had he realised, almost two decades into being married, that he was in love with his husband?

    In which the author tries valiantly to divorce a couple.

    Summary

    “Uh,” Wei Wuxian says. “Like… yeah. For real! Like obviously this wasn’t exactly the best way to bring it up, but look at you! Gorgeous. Capable. My bff-cum-bf. A dilf of the highest order, or, if you want to get technical, a jilf. Lan Zhan and I’ve definitely gotta lock that down. Let’s get married!”

    And then he gives Jiang Cheng double finger guns.

    Jiang Cheng drops the kids off, drives home, and throws up in the neighbor’s bushes before telling Lan Wangji to drive him to the hospital.

    It’s a bit of a blur after that.

    Summary

    When Wei Wuxian wakes up in Cloud Recesses after fainting on Dafan mountain, the last thing he expected is for Jiang Cheng to show up there unannounced.

    Summary

    Meng Yao knows Sect Leader Jiang's wife is pretty. She knows it was considered a good match, that a lot of people thought Jiang Cheng was lucky. She knows he didn’t feel lucky.

    The things she doesn’t know: his wife’s name. What she looks like, besides being tall and pretty. Anything about her likes or dislikes, her personality (beyond “nice enough”), anything she could use against her as leverage. Nothing at all, really, except that she’s some sect leader’s pretty, young, talented, barren wife.

    Lan Huan said, “This is not something I would leave you for.”

    Lan Huan didn’t say: I thought I would be good enough, but Jiang Cheng heard it anyway.
