    Summary

    Lan Wangji feels his heart break. He wishes he could scoop the children up and hide them somewhere, where nothing will ever hurt them again. “Please, all of you eat,” he pleads. “There will always be enough from now on. It is my promise.”

    “You’re too good, Hanguang-jun,” Wei Wuxian sighs. “You’ll make a wonderful father someday.”

    “I will have learnt from the best,” he nods at Wei Wuxian. The man’s cheeks fill with colour so pretty, Lan Wangji has to turn away entirely in order to breathe again.

    ———

    A storm thunders violently, the forest howls in pain, and children are disappearing into the night. Amongst it all, Lan Wangji encounters a strange, beautiful man. And his five children.

    Summary

    One of the fragments of Wei Wuxian's soul, splintered during the first siege of the Burial Mounds, uses the energy released by the Yin Tiger Tally and flees backwards through time to another moment where Wei Wuxian was close to death – after the fall of Lotus Pier, at the hands of Jiang Wanyin.

    Knowing how his first life will end, Wei Wuxian decides to hide his survival, and leave the cultivation world behind.

    (UPDATED to add a bonus chapter from LQR's point of view as he learns that he will be gaining WWX as a nephew-in-law. And the Lan sect gets an accessibility revolution!)

    Summary

    “Do not touch me,” A-Yin said, the smile ever-present on his face, though the softer affectations he had put on his voice before had fallen away leaving only the familiar cadence of Wei Ying. “If you have such nefarious intentions, gongzi, you would do well to discuss them with our Madam.”
    “Wei Ying,” Lan Wangji breathed out. His heart felt like it was unfolding in his chest. Warm, blossoming hope curling from within and filling the empty cavity that had been cold and gaping since Wei Ying had gone missing.

    ~
    Lan Wangji comes looking for Wei Ying in Yiling when he and Jiang Wanyin have no success in finding him after vanishing for three months. Lan Wangji was certainly not expecting to find him working as a courtesan.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian hadn’t been avoiding Lan Wangji for years, but he hadn’t been not-avoiding Lan Wangji either. There was something awful and awkward about seeing your intended spouse after turning them down that Wei Wuxian just didn’t want to deal with. It helped that he went away for university, and that Lan Wangji went away for university, and they happened to both go to different countries. Wei Wuxian liked to think they both wanted to get as far away from the situation as possible.

    (the situation being each other)

    So why, then, does Wei Wuxian’s heart skip a beat every time he sees Lan Wangji? And why is adult Lan Wangji so hot? It’s not fair that they could be married and instead Wei Wuxian is awkwardly pining for his former betrothed, a boy he once publicly broke it off with without regret.

    Summary

    Something smells so good. Wei Ying closes his eyes, already feeling sleepy, and tries to identify where the scent is coming from. He turns his face to one side and then the other, chasing it, until his nose touches Lan Zhan’s cheek.

    He pulls back quickly, not freaking out, because it’s fine. He touched Lan Zhan’s cheek with his nose, and Lan Zhan smells really fucking good, and they’re lying down together on a very soft bed because Lan Zhan is too drunk to let go of him, and Lan Zhan is gay but Wei Ying isn’t, and it’s fine.

    Wei Ying swallows hard and closes his eyes again.

    -

    Wei Ying helps Lan Zhan out of an uncomfortable situation, and they grow close right away, becoming instant friends. To Lan Zhan, they become instant something else. With time, they only get closer and closer, and Wei Ying is forced to deal with his own feelings about Lan Zhan, and his perception of his own sexuality.

    Summary

    Lan Zhan doesn’t think about him anymore.

    The days when he would obsess over every tiny work Wei Ying appeared in are long gone. His days of buying every magazine he was in, of taping his interviews and watching them over and over again just to get a piece of the real him, they’re all over. Lan Zhan doesn’t follow every project Wei Ying is a part of anymore, doesn’t try to find out if Wei Ying ever mentioned him anywhere, and doesn’t keep the TV on just in case he hears Wei Ying’s voice in a new commercial.

    He has weeks, and even months, when Wei Ying doesn’t even cross his mind at all. And when he does, it is only with a faded kind of fondness, a simmering affection to the memories they shared together.

    He’s happy for the things Wei Ying achieved. There is almost no hurt at all, almost no pain. And almost must be just as good as none.

    -

    Lan Zhan's world is turned upside down when his High School love, famous actor Wei Wuxian, comes back to their hometown after 13 years.

    Summary

    It didn’t matter.

    None of it mattered.

    It didn’t matter if Wei Ying was in love with Lan Zhan.

    He was dead.

    Only Jin Ling could see him.

    (Or: Wei Ying wakes up in Koi Tower following the siege, and finds out only his infant nephew is able to see him)

    Summary

    He thought of all the pain and death that was to come. There was so much that went wrong in the cultivation world in the next few years. The weight of responsibility felt insurmountable.

    Lan Qiren had never wanted to be a politician or leader. That role was meant for his brother. He had done his best in the years he had led the sect but he was aware that he was not the best person for the job. His interests had always been the academic pursuits and teaching the next generation. How could he hope to make an impact on the mess of political manoeuvring and aggression that was imminent? He decided he could only focus on the events which impacted his family the most. He could save Cloud Recesses from being burned. He could protect both his nephews from their disastrous relationships. He could protect the books they lost in the war.

    Or

    Lan Qiren travels back in time and tries to fix the future.

    Summary

    Jin Guanyao is in the Unclean Realm again, playing for Nie Mingjue. It should have been just like any other day but Nie Mingjue had been particularly cutting so Jin Guangyao gave the music a little extra push. After all, it would only make him a little sicker. In the grand scheme of things, it wouldn't really make a difference. Turns out, he was wrong about that.

    Lan Xichen has had a brilliant idea on how to help both Nie Mingjue and Lan Wangji and he couldn't wait to share his plan. He has arrived unexpectedly in the Unclean Realm and Nie Huaisang is taking him to Jin Guangyao and Nie Mingjue. He hears the music. While it might only make Nie Mingjue slightly agitated, Lan Xichen is a Lan. They cultivate with music and so he is much more sensitive than most.

    Lan Xichen hears the song from the Collection of Turmoil and he qi deviates. This changes everything.

    As Lan Xichen's heir, Lan Wangji becomes Sect Leader. What difference will it make when Hanguang-Jun, the Light Bearing Lord leads one of the four great sects? What will happen when Lan Wangji has the power to change the world?

    Wei Wuxian found a resentful sword deep in the bowels of a famed beast. He took it. That turned out to be fortunate since, it would seem, the sword had more than one purpose. That sword was the key to their escape from certain death trapped in the cave of the Xuanwu of Slaughter.

    Very satisfying. Bad things happening to the bad people in delightful ways due to their own bad, selfish choices. And good people have wonderful lives.
