#and doesn't inquire into what kind of kinky shit is happening on wei wuxian's half of the palace

[drwcn]

Idk why but w/ the new update on the Jiang Cheng dies au when we found out Lan Wangi still has Bichen then followed the angst thoughts on how Wei Wuxian doesn't trust him or remember the confession, my mind went straight to suicide. Like maybe my love can fully know my devotion if I'm totally under his power kind off way. Idk why that process but possibly bc I was lurking on angstyMZDXheadcanons earlier in the day😅😅. The sigh of relief and small laugh at Jiang Cheng's reveal was worth it though. Plus ur tags of Jiang Cheng's In front of salad made laugh harder.

cql verse au: jiang cheng dies at nevernight, wen qing does dark, and wei wuxian goes darker tw: torture, suicide(? not really. it was in the question stem).

Hi friend! Ah yes, our favourite idiots in love. Originally, I was gonna make this AU way darker but then I thought...nah.

I was debating how far off the deep end do I want wei wuxian to go, and well originally i thought if lan wangji refused to tell wei wuxian where wen yuan is, wei wuxian would try to extract that information from him by repeatedly using the stygian amulet on his mind to try and force lan wangji to tell him. lan wangji refuses to break, so wei wuxian ups his game. pain is in mind; he doesn't need to lay a finger on lan wangji. he suspends lan wangji in mid air with demonic energy so he has no means of ending his life or escape: "i'm not going to let you die until i know what you've done with a-yuan."

lan wangji does not speak a word.

wen qing....doesn't really care. she has her own things to think about, but one day she vists him in his prison and says: "you're not as clever as you think, hanguang-jun. the boy is dead, isn't he? that's why you're here. that's why you've allowed wei wuxian to do all those horrible things to you. it's what you want. punishment. is it because you believe you deserve it or because you hope to divert his wrath so that he doesn't go after your clansmen for what they did to an innocent child?"

lan wangji looks at her, and wen qing knows she's right. "you're wasting his time. this ends now."

"no."

lan wangji tells her the truth. he did save a-yuan before nevernight, but there was no time to return all the way back to cloud recesses before the siege, so he left him with a farmhand's family with a promise to be back for the boy soon. but when he returned to the farm several days later, the place had been razed and the family was found slain - by bandits from the looks it. a-yuan's body was never found, so he remains missing.

"i see." wei wuxian steps out from the shadow. he's heard everything.

"wei ying -"

"i don't need a martyr, lan wangji, just the truth." he releases lan wangji from his spell and tosses bichen onto the ground before him. "go home."

lan wangji of course will not leave. and then maybe wei wuxian keeps him in his own resident and just orders that nobody engages with him or talk to him, hoping to bore him to leave nevernight. maybe one of them gets drunk, maybe both of them gets drunk, in any case alcohol is involved and some very nsfw things happen and for three weeks wei wuxian pretends it never happened while lan wangji just accepts it and doesn't talk about his feelings. maybe bc wei wuxian is really off the rails, some nfsw things happen again except this time sober, and wwx finally just snaps.

"why won't you LEAVE?! why?! look at me - LOOK AT ME - look at what I am now. This!! You can't 'fix' me, Lan Wangji, so FUCK OFF!!"

"I can be useful to you in different ways."

"I - you - "

"you like this body, don't you? so take it. it's yours."

anyways.

jiang cheng's ghost probably still watches this happen and just be like....wow even death can't save me from this drama fml. idk how much of the above i was gonna keep in the offical version. i'm still thinking about it.
