how I learned to stop worrying and love my spouse - ao3 - Chapter 1
Pairing: Wen Ruohan/Lan Qiren, Wen Ruohan/Sect Leader Nie
Summary:
Wen Ruohan was having a no-good, bad, awful, terrible sort of day. The sort of day that you don't just get over. The sort of day that was so bad that it changed your entire outlook on life, usually in a negative way. Or, well, he had been, but that was before a juvenile Lan proposed to marry him. Marry! Him! What a ridiculous idea! (Wen Ruohan accepts.)
Author Note:
So when I was posting The Other Mountain, a lot of people were wondering how in the world Wen Ruohan would end up marrying into the Lan sect. I started writing this to answer that question.
It was going to be another longfic, but then I fell headfirst into a pit of depression/burnout/whatever and haven't written anything for a year, so I am just going to post this as is. It's unedited (meaning that there may be typos, character inconsistencies, and that scenes/arc moments/plot beats that might have been expanded on or rearranged have not been fixed), but it does reach an acceptable end point. I'll also include the notes I made for where it was going to go. I hope you enjoy.
(Title is from Dr. Strangelove - How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Bomb)

Dr. Strangelove, the titular character of Stanley Kubrick's "Dr. Strangelove: Or How I Stopped Worrying and Learned to Love the Bomb", is a composite character. He has the Nazi scientist background of Werner Von Braun, the irrepressible cheerfulness and humor at megadeaths of Herman Khan, and the love and obsession with large explosions of Edward Teller.
Edward Teller is quite possibly the most interesting character in the drama of nuclear history, right behind Oppenheimer himself. He was an ideas guy, in a very deliberate sense that he wanted to be seen as the ideas guy. This tendency encouraged him to latch on to bad ideas for longer than was advisable, given his apparent lack of ability to tell which ideas were good and which were deranged.
At Los Alamos during the war, he felt that work on traditional fission bombs was too boring, so he passed on his work to his others, and began work on the Super concept, that is thermonuclear hydrogen bombs. As an aside, the person he passed his work off to was Klaus Fuchs, mild-mannered member of the British delegation, part time babysitter for other scientists, and full time soviet spy.
Teller worked with Stanislaw Ulam in the post-war, and made a breakthrough enabling the Teller-Ulam design for creating thermonuclear bombs in the megaton range. Iirc, he is our culprit for suggesting the moonshot.
Among other things, he also suggested the creation of a gigaton bomb to the Atomic Energy Commission(I think, there were a lot of committees with nuclear weapons floating around). Such a weapon would be thousands of tons, unmoveable by anything save a cargo ship, and would destroy an area the size of France. Needless to say, members of the committee firmly ignored him in hopes that he would seize on some other fixation.
But yes, fascinating character, Teller was.
Nuclear deterrence is a fundamentally insane concept. which is a shame, because explosions are really cool

Dr. Strangelove (1964) dir. Stanley Kubrick. 7.6/10
I would not recommend this movie to my friends. I would rewatch this movie.
This sure is satire. Lmao at the our source was the NY Times.
The controls are kinda fun to watch.
I feel like this is a type of movie I don't really see anymore. I kinda want more make fun of things in this way.
