Summary: When the Jiang family falls on hard times, they are faced with two choices - have Jiang Yanli marry wealthy asshole Jin Zixun to clear the family's debts, or have Wei Ying marry the youngest son of the equally wealthy Lan family. To save his elder sister from a miserable loveless marriage, Wei Ying agrees to the match.
There's just one catch - his prospective husband is already dead.
Kay's comments: I really loved this story and it was actually one of the first stories I saw that featured a ghost marriage! The setting especially was just great, I'm very weak for the 1910s era and I loved this exploration of this time period. In which Wei Wuxian gets ghost-married to the recently deceased Lan Wangji, but fear not, there is a happy end for them! There's also a mystery to solve and the Lan estate, which has the most haunted vibes (and may be haunted by Lan Wangji).
Excerpt:"Thank you, Uncle Jiang. Actually, this is about my brother, Lan Zhan. I'm afraid he passed away a few days ago," Lan Huan says.
Wei Ying is so surprised that he blurts out, "A few days ago? Then why would you want to talk about a wedding now? Um, no offence."
"None taken," Lan Huan assures him. "Well, my brother and I are the last remaining members of our family line, and because he is younger than me, I'm not allowed to pay my respects to him. He was only 19, and has no spouse or children who can complete the proper funeral rites for him. I have had to leave his body at the funeral home instead of bringing it here, and after everything he cannot be buried in the family grave with our ancestors because by custom there is nobody who can mourn him, and I just-" Lan Huan takes a deep breath, unable to continue talking.
Meng Yao urges his employer to drink his tea, brows furrowed with worry as he murmurs words of comfort. In the silence that follows, Wei Ying fits the pieces of the puzzle together.
"Why not offer marriage to a young lady instead? Or ask the temple medium if he knows of any young man or woman who has passed away and whose family might find themselves in a similar predicament?" Jiang Fengman asks carefully.
Lan Huan puts down his cup, shaking his head. "My brother would not have been happy about being married to a woman. He had few friends and kept to himself, and I was one of the few people who knew him well, but even I underestimated the depth of his loneliness. If there is indeed an afterlife, I do not wish for him to be lonely in it as well, which is why I wished to meet your foster son before we involved a matchmaker or medium." Lan Huan turns to Wei Ying, addressing him very seriously, "I want to make sure that you understand what is being asked of you."
To marry a dead man and go through the mourning rites for him as his widower so that he can be buried in his ancestral grave. To promise to be the companion of this man in the afterlife, a man Wei Ying has never met... or has he?
pov wei wuxian, modern setting, modern with magic, 1910s, case fic, ghosts, ghost lan wangji, arranged marriage, ghost marriage, angst with a happy ending, lan wangji/wei wuxian get a happy ending, @la-muerta

Despite all his boring ties and even more boring suits, Henry Fox-Mountchristen-Windsor is one hell of a kinky bastard.
Or, five times that Henry blew Alex's mind, and one time that Alex tried to surprise Henry.

He longs for the peace and release of death, but learns that only a descendant of the enemy king who stabbed him can remove the sword fragment from his heart.

cook, cock, cool for the wip game!
I truly have 10 million wips
I dont use the word cock nearly as much as I thought I did
COCK; Boner fic Part 2: Kt's POV:
Now though, Khaotung is ready to vacuum his own floor, to First’s preferred level of cleanliness even - at least two levels above the national average - so he can use the favor to push First down onto it instead. On his knees in front of Khaotung, staring up at him with his big, glistening eyes that are more thrilled than scared, lips gently trembling from the anticipation of Khaotung feeding him his cock.
COOK; FK safehouse fic aka the first FK fic I ever started writing. eclipse won me over but their safehouse appearance has me by the throat
Khaotung does what he always does on safehouse: take care of everyone.
He’s good at cooking and cleaning and the boys are always ready to help or accompany him if they’re otherwise useless. It’s a fairly easy thing for him to do and it comes with what feels like a disproportionate amount of gratitude.
First is injured and in the natural order of the world it would be Khaotung taking care of him because it’s what he does and First is his best friend.
COOL; My wangxian android AU that I wrote based on la_muerta's android AU (I started writing this 4 years ago with permission and its 15k words and somehow still dying in my drafts)
Wei Wuxian chuckles to himself thinking about being yelled at in tandem by Jiang Cheng and Lan Wangji. But unlike Jiang Cheng, Lan Wangji’s flustered face filled him with glee. Seeing Lan Wangji’s eyes flash with anger at him only strengthened his belief that behind the cool jade exterior Lan Wangji felt just as much as the next person. That just like Lan Xichen, Lan Wangji’s eyes could also glow with warmth.
Jiang Cheng was wrong about him crushing on Lan Wangji though. It’s just that Wei Wuxian could tell that underneath all that boring perfection Lan Wangji held multitudes. Wei Wuxian just wanted to know every single one of them, in a very platonic way.

T, 10k, jiang cheng & wei wuxian, wangxian
Summary: Jiang Cheng accidentally swaps bodies with Wei Wuxian on a night hunt.
It’s awkward all around while they search for a cure, but Jiang Cheng will not be held accountable for his actions if Wei Wuxian keeps looking at Lan Wangji like that while wearing his face.
My comments: Ah, this one got me! Jiang Cheng is hurt, and angry, but also he loves his brother so much, and feelings are hard.
In which wwx and jc switch bodies on a night hunt. JC learns some things about wwx; lan wangji is shovel-talked; and an old secret comes out.

Summary:
The way Wei Ying saw it, getting hit by a weird curse or two on a night hunt was an expected job hazard as a cultivator, and this was just a one-time fuck to help a friend out. It wouldn’t change anything between them, even if he’d been crushing on Lan Zhan since forever. It couldn't get more complicated than that.
(He was of course wrong, wrong, and dead wrong.)
