    Summary

    “What, a few months away and suddenly you’re a stranger?” he says. “What do you mean, what am I doing here?”

    “You know that’s not what I meant.” Wei Ying rubs, hard, at the spot between his eyebrows. All of a sudden, he’s looking very tired again. “If your mother finds out you’re here—”

    “Let me worry about my own mother,” Jiang Cheng snaps back. “If you’re so anxious to get me out the door, I’m happy to oblige. Just tell me what the Lans have on you so that I can fix it.”

    Wei Ying has shifted slightly out of Lan Zhan’s line of sight again. But Lan Zhan can imagine the face he’s making from the sound of his voice.

    “Uh,” Wei Ying says. “What?”

    (Or: a few months into exorcist Lan Zhan's partnership with medium Wei Ying, Jiang Cheng quite literally comes crashing into their lives. A sequel to 'when I look over my shoulder.')

    Summary

    Cloud is thrown back in time and physically altered by Jenova, which is a problem, actually, because now he's a freaking two-year-old and—hey wait a second, is all of AVALANCHE here too?! Is that Zack? How come he gets to be an adult! ARGH!

    Summary

    Cloud is thrown back in time and physically altered by JENOVA, which is a problem but not enough of one to keep him from exploding the Nibelheim reactor and sending the Mansion up in flames. No, the real problem is the flamboyant red-clad SOLIDER asshole who takes one look at him and decides that kidnapping a rogue experiment is a charitable thing to do.

    Maybe he shouldn't have dodged the name question by calling himself "Subject C."

    Summary

    Modern cultivator, Wei Wuxian, dies in a train crash and is sent back in time to the period of Ancient China he had been writing his thesis on - transmigrated into his own body as a child, dying on the streets of Yiling. He has no money, no family, but a knowledge of modern cultivation and of the historical events that are about to unfold.

    He recalls the recently-unearthed journal of a woman who was imprisoned in Cloud Recesses against her will, and decides that she’s a good place to start to find someone who might be willing to help him dismantle the corruption that had sent the Cultivation World into the Dark Ages so long ago.

    Of course, he had no idea that the person he sought would be the mother of Hanguang-Jun, the object of Wei Wuxian's fascination (“obsession,” his friend had corrected), since he had first learned of his existence in the ancient texts he'd studied.
