    Summary

    No one leaves the burial mounds alive. Wei Wuxian knows this to be true. He can feel that it’s true. But it’s a struggle to account for all the symptoms he has to hide. He didn’t even expect this one – but then, Lan Zhan played Inquiry.

    Fuck.

    Summary

    He wants to take Lan Zhan far away from here, somewhere no one can ever touch him again. Kidnap him, he supposes; that’s what he is now, on top of all the rest. A kidnapper.

    Summary

    “I wish we could do ours again for the first time,” xiao-Shu continued, peering at the back of his hand and the careful spot of crimson, its edges perfectly crisp like a freshly stamped seal. “I'd paint you all over in gold.”

    People destined to be bonded leave colours on each other’s skin. Jingyan knows what bonds mean, and then learns that what he knew may not always be the whole picture.

    Summary

    “Oh, wow, yeah, see, this is way better,” Wei Wuxian says. “Jiang Cheng, here, c’mon—”

    Jiang Cheng makes a confused noise, then squawks and drops his weight unhelpfully as Wei Wuxian tries to haul him forward by his grasp on Jiang Cheng’s bloodstained belt. “What? No! Are you crazy? I’m not sleeping with Lan Wangji!”

    Lan Zhan, who had been striding across the clearing toward them, robes a-swirl, pulls up abruptly like he’s run into an invisible wall.

    - - -

    It’s Jiang Cheng and Lan Wangji, rather than Jin Zixuan, who arrive at Qiongqi Pass as Jin Zixun is attacking Wei Wuxian. This turns out significantly better than it does in canon!

    Unfortunately, during the attack, Jiang Cheng is hit with a curse that can only be healed with magic qi-transferring sex. And since Wei Wuxian, secretly coreless, can’t do it, he’ll just have to persuade Lan Wangji to step up instead.

    Summary

    Qin Su didn't fully believe in her new reality until her first night. She fell asleep. She dreamed—a nonsense dream, meeting an old friend by the Jinlintai lotus pond while Lan clan members tried to talk them into an archery competition. When she woke up the next morning, the weight of the blankets, the warmth of the sunlight, and the inescapable reality of everything around her, compared with the hazy illogic of the dream, forced her to conclude that when her husband stabbed her with a cursed dagger, she had, indeed, traveled into her own past.

    Qin Su travels to the past and to the Nie sect.

    Summary

    “What’s all this?”

    A new voice cuts through the general merriment of the group. It’s light and casual and Lan Wangji sees the feet and legs of some of his tormentors turn in the direction of the voice. From the angle his head is at, he can’t see the newcomer at all. Blood loss and shock and pain are making his body heavy and his vision hazy and even his mind feels like it’s starting to slip away, yet even as far gone as he is he knows exactly to whom that voice belongs.

    He would know that voice anywhere.

     

    OR Lan Wangji is horrifically hurt during the sunshot campaign and when Wei Wuxian comes to his rescue /things/ end up coming out.

    Summary

    ”You were a man who loved the sound of his own voice,” the shape says, voice drifting over to him like a half-forgotten scent. ”So, how about you put that voice to better use and show what good you actually are.”

    OR

    A story in which Fate challenges Sect Leader Yao to put his money where his mouth is and change everything better. Obviously, it should be easy and simple because Sect Leader Yao knows everything, right?

    Summary

    Here, in his little tower, he was free to be without having to worry about other people’s opinions. Although, because the universe had a sense of humor, his only coworker was the famously righteous Hanguang-jun from the Lan sect.

    And he certainly had opinions.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian is the sole cultivator stationed in Yiling Tower out in the Forsaken Battlegrounds, the loneliest post out across the jianghu. No one else in memory has ever lasted the five years of a cultivator posting, but he's determined to do it and make it out before the sheer emptiness can affect even him.

    His quest becomes that much easier when he rescues a snow white fox that unexpectedly appears one day, giving him the companionship and friend he so desperately longs for out here in the desolate wastes.

    The mystery of just who this giant, white fox is and how he ended out here in the first place is a secondary concern to the joy of finally having someone at his side.

    Summary

    Legolas has not slept in over a month; has not even so much as dreamed in days. The horrors of their travel through Moria feel like a hallucination – or a nightmare – and now that they have arrived in Lothlórien, he knows there is nothing else for it but to slip away to rest.

    Grief-stricken by the loss of his kin and the ruin of Khazad-dûm, Gimli too excuses himself from the Fellowship as soon as he can manage, seeking solitude. But when he stumbles upon one of his companions fast asleep in the forest, he cannot justify leaving him without a guard.

    Summary

    Furious with his Wei Wuxian for his rumored elopement to Lan Wangji, Jiang Cheng crashes into Cloud Recesses and stumbles upon a truth that turns his world upside down.

    Summary

    “I’m not here to help you with your work,” said Lan Zhan, injecting frost into his voice to deter any further attempts at charm. “I’ll be focusing on my research.”

     

    Wei Ying cocked his head. “Research?” he said.

     

    “Mm. I’m a cultivation researcher, not a department employee. I’m reconstructing the ancient musical cultivation techniques of the Lan clan.”

     

    ___

    Lan Zhan’s new liaison at the Caiyi Municipal Cultivation Department is an enigma – ridiculously talented, yet somehow content with mopping up spiritual pests for barely above minimum wage. Wei Ying is slapdash and irresponsible, and Lan Zhan doesn’t like him at all… but then he meets A-Yuan, who loves music and longs for a piano his father can’t afford.

    Forced into cautious friendship by a four-year-old's music lessons, Lan Zhan soon realises Wei Ying is more than he seems. The single father is a man of many secrets – including, perhaps, the key to Lan Zhan's life's work. And in the meantime, the background resentment in Caiyi Town is rising to dangerous levels…

    Summary

    Wei Ying pulls off Chenqing. The note abruptly falters, going sharp as he blocks the blow intended for Lan Wangji.

    The strike is strong and fast. The Wen’s knife is sharp. It takes Wei Ying’s body an endless, aching moment to realize it has been harmed. And then there’s blood, splashing hot across Wei Ying’s face and clothing.

    Wei Wuxian is injured on the battlefield defending Lan Wangji. They both have feelings about it.

    Summary

    Cooper Hawkes is an in-vitro in a world of natural-borns.

    A Marine, because the judge sent him to the Corps instead of to jail.

    Six years old, and caught up in the middle of a war.

    Cooper has learned, painfully and well, that humans despise him, that human society rejects him: the nipple-neck, the wetbrain, the tank. That surrounded by his squadron he is still, and always, alone; that, whether in the crowded barracks of boot camp or the screaming fury of battle, none of them are like him, none are what he is. None of them are bound to him with chains of being.

    Except one.

    Summary

    Three fics made possible via Wei Wuxian creating a time travel talisman.

    They can all be read individually and in any order as none of them are dependent on the others for information and all run on independent timelines/technically aren't even in the same timeline. The order below is simply the order I started writing them. Choose your own adventure, the characters certainly are.

    1. Our Choices Not Undone - WWX creates the talisman but doesn't use it himself.

    2. I Have Been Selfish Too - JGY gets to be the center of someone else's time travel fix-it journey.

    3. Who You Condemn - LXC uses the talisman and learns to move forward in the past.

    Summary

    “The rock,” Jingyi says, voice very very unstable. “Hit the rock, shixiong, fuck, no time to break the wards, hit the rock —”

    The Killing Chord strikes Jingyi’s appointed boulder. It cracks that in half, too.

    Not half a second after Lan Yuan follows Jingyi into the crevice, the yaoguai strikes the stone, talons scrabbling at the crevice, beak pecking at the entrance they’ve made themselves. A red, furious, glowing eye peers in after them, and Lan Yuan stumbles back blindly, vaguely downwards. He’s staring at the entrance, at the clear and present danger. Neither of them are looking backward.

    In hindsight, it’s the worst mistake they make all day.

     

    Wei Ying has spent years sealed under a mountain. It's just his luck that the kids who break him out of it are Lans.
