Summary
“He found he couldn’t tear his eyes away from Mingjue. Watching the way the shadows from the candlelight flickered and bounced their way across his face. Simply listening to the sound of him breathing, deep in sleep and at peace. He was just living, just existing. It was as if everything else had stopped still and the only moment in existence was just the two of them lying together in this room; hidden away from the rest of the world and its demands.”
---

Summary
“What happened?” she asks eventually, so quiet he might not have heard her if they weren’t having this conversation in the silent dead of night. “When you went to Qiongqi Way to stop him, what happened?”
Lan Wangji didn’t reply, instead tightening his grip on his sword and staring straight ahead.
“They said you let him go,” she continued, looking up at him. “Is it true?”

“After everything he did do you think there could be any other way?!” his voice cracked as he spoke and he stared Lan Wangji directly in the eye.
“Do you really believe you could have still saved him? If I wasn’t there, do you really think he would’ve let you!?”

His expression she could not decipher. She presumed there were very few people in this world that could. That being said, she thought. Her a-Xian was most likely one of the ones who could.

Summary
She remembers it clearly. The way he was slumped down in his chair, whiskey glass in hand and an empty bottle at his feet. The way he looked so defeated, so small, sitting in the dark with his two oldest friends and one or two or three bottles of whiskey for company.

Summary
Before him, Jiang Wanyin stares at him as if he had just spoken profanely, and his mouth is slightly agape when he pushes himself out of his seat. What follows, unsurprisingly, is anger. “You wouldn’t dare,” he hisses. When Lan Wangji is about to state that he certainly would, Jiang Wanyin continues, “If such a thing were to happen, you can ask him the right way, or not at all!”
He blinks.
Then, he feels his ears start burning.
Ignoring the elevated pace at which his heart thumps against his chest, he takes his indignation and pours it into the gaze he levels Jiang Wanyin with. “As a disciple—”
“No,” is the brusque interruption. “If he is to be a disciple, it will be of the Jiang sect, where he belongs.”
When minor clans put forth a petition to the Chief Cultivator to deliver the Yiling Laozu to be tried for his continued demonic cultivation activity—with a not-so-friendly addition that demands verification for Lady Jiang’s resurrection—Jiang Cheng and Lan Wangji butt heads over how best to protect Wei Wuxian from such unwanted accusations.

Summary
On the day of supposed celebration for Dean’s graduation, he was involved in a car crash. Parents dead. Sam hooked on drugs. And Dean didn’t even get a scratch on him. Six years on, Sam was back on his feet, ready for law school with his girlfriend in tow. On the other hand, Dean felt like he hadn’t done anything with his life; he pretended the impala wasn’t sitting in his garage; there was no girlfriend on his arm; the degree was forgotten in the bottom of his wardrobe. Most importantly, he still found himself feeling a little too responsible for everything that had happened in the crash. Sometimes, it felt like he was barely holding on by a thread.
And then in came Castiel, slowly but surely turning everything into question. And then some.
