[muqingapologist]

curious about this…

this isn’t really asking which couple is your least favorite but which couple is least interesting to read about after all the pining and plot of the novel has been settled?

bc i have my own opinions hahaha

[gentil-minou]

hold me close

Sometimes Lan Wangji misses Wei Ying even when he's with him. He forgets he doesn’t need to be afraid. This Wei Ying won’t vanish into the shadows. Sometimes, it feels like Lan Wangji is just waiting to be proven wrong. Lan Wangji has spent his entire life grieving for the ones he's loved and lost. How can he be expected to simply stop?

Wei Ying visits Lan Wangji every night for thirteen years.

He arrives cloaked in shadows wrapping around him in a shroud. Long hair fans out behind him buffeted by an unnatural wind, thick at the roots and becoming wisps of smoke at the ends.

And every night, Lan Wangji welcomes this Wei Ying into arms that will never again know his warmth. An embrace that will never be shared with anyone else. A fantasy for a willing hostage, caught in a trap of his own design.

The Wei Ying in his dreams is well-fed and well-loved, skin bronze from endless summers spent lakeside, glowing with a fire stoked from within that both threatens Lan Wangji and calls to him all the same. This Wei Ying is always smiling. Not the one Lan Wangji sees in his nightmares, crazed with resentment consuming his soul. The one from their youth, the one this hostile world stole from him when he was far too young.

The Wei Ying in his dreams is not numb from grief and loss. He is not cruel. He does not shove Lan Wangji away.

He places a hand on Lan Wangji’s flushed, tear-stained cheek. His calloused hand is no longer cold and dying but instead warm and alive. This Wei Ying guides Lan Wangji towards him, a loving gaze fixed on him as a familiar smirk curls into a tease.

His dark eyes are bright and dancing, not glassy and dead. They drag Lan Wangji in, ensnaring him, rooting him in place. Though Lan Wangji has no reason to escape regardless.

Shadows twist up and down his body, leaving mark after mark in a trail claiming him. They convince Lan Wangji that this moment is real and true and won’t vanish like fog once dawn breaks over the mountain, flinging logic and sense far away.

In his dreams, Wei Ying loves him.

In his dreams, Lan Wangji saves him.

In his dreams, he has this. Everything he’s ever wanted.

Lan Wangji becomes quite adept at pretending the dreams are all he needs.

"Suibian?" Xichen asked. "Really, Wangji? What kind of name is that?"

Lan Wangji suppressed the urge to shrug. Instead of looking at his brother he looked down at the small black rabbit sleeping in a nest of hay inside a transport box. He hadn't had the heart yet to wake it up by taking it out, despite there being a whole, fully bunny-friendly furnished room waiting for his new roommate.

"It's the name Wei Ying wanted to give his bunny," he eventually said. Even saying his name was hard and he had to swallow a couple of times. He managed to keep himself from tearing up but his voice broke slightly at the words. "Mine was supposed to be called Bichen." He didn't add that his was supposed to be white.

"Oh, Wangji," Xichen sighed.

If anyone has any idea what this fic is or things I can search to find it further (like rec list collections), please let me know. I just searched 50 pages of ao3 and can't find it, but I know it existed and I read it a few years ago. I initially found it as someone's recommendation:

The Untamed or MDZS fic. Lan Sizhui is a tentacle monsterr/some kind of lovecraftian monster and it's a secret he hides that the Lan clan is aware of, or at least his closest people. Otherwise the universe is the same: Lan Wangji raises him, he's a sweetheart among the juniors. The story was either Lan Sizhui/Jin Ling or Lan Sizhui/Jin Ling/Lan Jingyi or a combo of those with & instead. The main thing was Lan Sizhui was the main character, he had a slightly monster background which changed things a bit, and the trio were the focus of the story. I have searched Lan Sizhui pairings, Lan sizhui and the keywords "monster" and "tentacle" and i am just not having any luck finding it...

[wangxian-the-zhijis]

So I’m thinking of writing wangxian fics! I’m new to the fandom so I’ll be a new name! Of the 35k MDZS/CQL fics in ao3, what concept/s do you guys think is lacking?

💙 The Shade of Old Trees by Kryal

💙 The Shade of Old Trees

by Kryal

T, 363k, Wangxian

Summary: “We rest in the shade of trees our ancestors planted.” They called the man in the ice Yiling Laozu, after a folk hero associated with the town in the foothills of the mountains where he was found. No one expected him to be alive! Kay's comments: I have never been less surprised to see that a story was written by a PhD student. The end notes at the end of each chapter are very extensive and just amazing. So much information, so much research, 363k of an incredible story that had me completely hooked. I read it in a week and could hardly focus on anything else, because that story was just so present in the back of my mind and I wanted to know what would happen next. Got introduced to the story by the stunning art by @toffee-arts. I loved the entire plotline of Wei Wuxian having to first learn modern Chinese in order to speak to the scientists (and mostly Lan Zhan) who decided to thaw his supossed corpse. I love how it all came together, how it all wrapped up neatly and the slow burn! The slow burn almost killed me! And how cultivation just awed everyone in modern day!! I just know this story is going to be a favourite I will re-read again and again and there are certainly a lot of details I must have missed during my obsessed binge. Excerpt: Everyone in the observation room tensed. This was, after all, the most delicate point. If it wasn’t going to be possible to remove the ice without beginning to thaw Yiling Laozu, they would have to move very quickly to preserve some of the data they wanted. The cellular damage caused by the freezing process meant that once the ice thawed, the damage would spread rapidly. Lan Wangji glanced at Wen Yuan. “Leave if you need to,” he told the boy quietly. Wen Yuan shook his head. “No, I want to stay…” Lan Wangji wasn’t certain what caught his attention – a flicker of movement from the corner of his eye, a hint of sound, a flash of intuition. He looked up to see Lan Xichen slam into the window. Drop out of sight, stunned by the impact. Beyond, shards of shattered ice fell from black robes scattered across the floor as Yiling Laozu’s body tumbled off the lab table— Twisted. Landed on his feet. Stood. Piercing silvery-grey eyes flickered across the room, wary and confused. Lan Wangji froze. Yiling Laozu was awake. …Yiling Laozu was alive.

pov alternating, modern setting, modern with magic, different first meeting, time travel, time travelling wei wuxian, time travel of sorts, canon divergence, slow burn, worldbuilding, getting together, developing relationship, academia, research, science, bamf wei wuxian, yiling laozu wei wuxian, grief/mourning

mom: cool [starts typing an essay also full of oversharing]

[wangxian-the-zhijis]

In case someone wants it, this is the best ‘wwx going feral over hurt lwj’ fic I’ve ever read in my entire life. (Well I’m a new fan from only 3 months ago but I’ve already consumed thousands of fics and there’s not a lot of lwj whump sadly.)

Yes, it has a happy ending! It’s 314k words BUT I SWEAR IT’S WORTH EVERY SINGLE SECOND OF YOUR TIME!!!!!!!

I love the idea of Wei Ying protecting his husband. He is so cool and beautiful as Yiling Patriarch… aaaawwwwww.. love them…
