#Lan Jingyi

[fistfuloflightning]

So. I’m aware that roosters are not intended for the pot unless a) last ditch choice or b) incredibly problematic and need to be put down, but imagine: bby Jingyi saves a young chicken from becoming dinner and brings it to Cloud Recesses. And once it’s escaped from his incredibly soundproofed rooms and hidden itself on the mountain, Cloud Recesses is no longer the tranquil haven of scholars. Not when a fcking loud obnoxious rooster wakes them up long before 5am and refuses to be caught.

As for poor LQR on his walk… :

This video is EXACTLY what Lan Qiren fears is going to happen the moment he lets Wei Wuxian back into Cloud Recesses

I think Lan Jingyi is important. Specifically in what he represents: In the Cloud Recesses Study Arc we see how stolid the Lan Sect is, and with Lan Wangji's whipping we see how blinded the Lan Sect can be by its own ideals that it forsakes the morality those ideals represent.

When we see Lan Wangji in WWX'S second life we see the change Lan Wangji has initiated in his own clan.

That change is embodied in the one Lan Jingyi.

He's loud, brash, emotive, unfiltered and sometimes rude, all of which are anathema to the Lan Clan's sacred ideals of comportment and image. While Lan Jingyi does get punished for infractions it should be noted that he's never dissuaded from his own nature. There is no alienation of Lan Jingyi from his clan. Lan Jingyi is fully Lan, we don't ever see him excluded and we don't see his relationship to his clan in any interpretable as estranged.

What does that tell us?

It tells us that the Lan Sect is changing. If we went purely on the Lan Sect we see in years prior it would not be surprising to see a character such as Lan Jingyi continually disparaged for his anathemic nature, looked down upon and excluded for his differences and punished for his 'undesirable traits'.

We do not see Lan Jingyi's passion being trained or beaten out of him. Instead, we see that the Lan Sect, especially through Lan Wangji's teachings and reforms, are doing their best to model Morality and Righteousness.

The flourishing existence of Lan Jingyi is a testament to the emendation of Lan Sect values; true righteousness being valued over the appearance of it, benevolence in action instead of in name. Mercy. Grace.

Lan Jingyi is the product of Lan Wangji's reforms and trials.

We see Lan Wangji suffer for his innate passion, punished for it by the hands of his own sect. But we also know Lan Jingyi never will.

Lan Jingyi is a sign of growth.

Wei Wuxian, to the juniors: If I run and leap at Hanguang-jun, he will most certainly catch me in his arms. Watch.

Lan Wangji, carrying a tea tray:

Wei Wuxian, running and leaping at him: Lan Zhan, here I come!!!~~ ε===(っ≧ω≦)っ

Juniors: Uh-oh (;° ロ°) Hanguang-jun is going to drop the te-

Lan Wangji: *balances tray on one arm, catches Wei Wuxian with the other, effortlessly spins him around twice then hoists him up on his shoulder, not even displacing a single cup*

Wei Wuxian: Aiya~ Lan Er-gege, so strong, so steady, so graceful!!!

(~￣³￣)~

Wangxian: *shameless PDA ensues*

Juniors: (ノ-_-)ノ ミ ┻━┻
