[that-one-ao3-writer]

This was something I wrote on a whim but you know.

Tw: mentions of transphobia

Matchablossom royalty au where kojiro is the emperor and kaoru is the heir to one of the kingdoms.

Since kojiro was still unmarried and didnt have an heir yet, the court ladies choose a lot of brides and asked him to select one to produce an heir, preferably a son.

It was during this time that kojiro met kaoru. Kaoru had beautiful pink hair that shined like cherry blossoms and sharp eyes that held on to striking knowledge. Kojiro was smitten from their first meeting.

Kojiro and kaoru spent a lot of time together, learning about each other, bickering with each other, meeting for dinner and a play, among others. And each meeting, kojiro fell more and more in love. Lingering touches, subtle glances, secrets whispers shared in private....

But kaoru was always holding back from something. There was always a slight hesitation to kaoru's touch before leaning into kojiro. It was something that bothered him, but did not give a second thought about because this was /kaoru/ and he wanted to spend his entire life with this person.

He had decided it

On a beautiful full moon night, kojiro had set up a small table at the top of the terrace with the best wine of the land. It was a simple gesture, but it had kaoru looking at him like he hung the moon and stars himself.

He would, if kaoru gave him a chance

They were passing time with their usual friendly banter and inside jokes, when kojiro made his move. He held kaoru's hand gently, and gazed into those golden eyes, making kaoru fall silent. They leaned towards each other, their lips nearly touching........when kaoru pulled away, breaking the spell.

'What happened? Did I do something wrong?' Kojiro asked, scared that he had done something to hurt kaoru or worse, to make kaoru resent him.

'No, no, nothing!' Kaoru said, but it did not convince kojiro. That hesitancy was back again, and this time he wouldn't let it go unnoticed.

'I love you kaoru,' kojiro said, pleading. 'Please tell me.' Kaoru was silent for a long while, before speaking up in a timid voice.

'You don't.'

Kojiro was taken aback. How dare kaoru doubt his love, his feelings?

'You love kaoru sakurayashiki, princess of the sakura kingdom,' kaoru continued. 'Not me.'

Kojiro took kaoru's hand in his own, caressing it. He hoped it conveys the message he wasn't brave enough to say. /tell me everything. I will listen to you. I will believe you, even if no one else does./

'I'm not a princess,' kaoru said and kojiro listened.

'I'm forced to be a woman, someone who would please the emperor,' and kojiro believed.

'Please dont hate me, even if I'm not the woman you believed me to be,' and kojiro brought kaoru close.

'I still love you. I love the kaoru sakurayashiki who is the most beautiful, kind and caring person I've met. Who isn't scared to butt heads with me. Who will still care for everyone even if it got thrown back in your face.'

And under the beautiful moon and stars, kojiro kissed the most beautiful man he had ever laid his eyes on. Pulling back, kojiro saw that kaoru's cheeks were wet with tears. He gently brushed them away. Kaoru gave him a small smile, which made kojiro's heart melt.

I love you, kojiro,' kaoru said, and there wasn't a hint of hestitance in his voice.

'I would love to marry you.'

The Premise of this Threadfic: Homelander suckles on Billy Butcher’s d!ck until the stress and white noise in his evil blond head is gone. That’s it. That’s the plot.

CW: ⚠️🔞, some surface level Homelander whump because I think he deserves a lil pampering after the new episode. Vaguely inspired by The Boys 04x04 and Butcher’s gorgeous manly tatas

(You can read the rest of it here!)

If you don’t have a Twitter account, screenshots are provided below the line break so you can read this update on Tumblr as well:

A/N - I can't believe this threadfic has its own behind-the-scenes backstory, but the first 25 tweets of how this threadfic initially started had been very different from what you see in this version. It was full of poignant lore and future S4 speculation, a dive into HL's psyche regarding his traumatic upbringing, and commentary about Compound V causing madness and tragedy to tie into what'll happen to Hugh Sr, ect.… It’d been saved in my Drafts; I’d been ready to click “Post All” after I found the perfect GIFs for the starter tweet. But then I'd accidentally pressed "DELETE" instead of "Save”—and all that work, vanished. Banished to the ether. RIP to what could've been. 🥲 I wasn't about to retype all that in my second attempt so I ended up simplifying it. And that's how we arrived here. :) Hope y'all enjoyed regardless! <3

as promised :3

fengqing bodyguard/royalty au‼️ PART 1

-

prince mu qing, stuck in an arranged marriage

ask anything else of him & he would gladly do it for his mother, the queen & his people

but this? he’s torn between his duty & his heart

because he’s actually in love with his bodyguard

his bodyguard, feng xin, who’s been by his side for years

his mother had no idea he had fallen for the gifted archer she had assigned to him when they were just 13, after his father had been assassinated

how could she have? he never told her..

he hadn’t even told feng xin….

yet the karma of keeping his mouth sealed so tight seems to have caught up to him

because here he was - standing next to his mother, as she explains how now that he’s 18, he’s of marrying age

he nearly lets out a small gasp, but masks it, as he realizes what she’s implying

“mama….surely you don’t mean….” he hopes his voice doesn’t actually sound as strained as he thinks it does

“qing’er….I’m sorry…..the court has my hands tied here…they demand you marry…..to produce an heir…”

“mama?” mu qings eyes widened, his composure finally cracking. he whips his head towards her, finding her head tilted forwards, a common posture she took when hiding her face

“i know, I’m sorry qing’er….they’re having candidates come to meet you as soon as possible….”

his mother didn’t raise her head to meet his eyes, as if ashamed.

his hands trembled as they curled into fists

“but i—”

he stopped himself, biting his tongue

he couldn’t tell her about his love for feng xin

yes, his mother was a caring woman, a caring queen, basically his best friend - if he was being honest

he loved her greatly…

yet, what if she found out her son had fallen for someone most consider palace staff

HE sure as hell didn’t think of feng xin as just some random staff member hired to protect him

no, he was mu qings closest friend & confidante, even if mu qing didn’t act like it at times

mu qings mother loved him & respected him greatly, always listening intently to what feng xin had to say, always making sure he was fed & had the warmest clothing for the colder nights

…yet would that change if she discovered mu qing loved him?

would she kick feng xin out?

he told himself no, his mother would never do something as cruel as that, not to anyone - but especially not to feng xin

but what if she did? what if she blamed feng xin for ruining mu qings shot at what she hoped would be a happy marriage with a complete stranger

no, he couldn’t tell her.

he bit his lip, bending slightly in a bow, before all but stomping away from his mother & towards his chambers

he had half a mind to let the doors behind him slam, but he knew it wasn’t his mothers fault - and he refused to disrespect her like that. it was that stupid courts fault after all, & their bullshit about heirs

he shut the doors behind him slowly, before turning towards the hallway & coming face to face with feng xin - whom as usual, was waiting for him

“oh. hey.” he nods, cringing at the way his voice cracks

“what’s wrong? did something happen? are you hurt?” feng xin springs into action, noticing the littlest change in mu qings usual attitude & tone

he frantically looks over mu qing, simultaneously touching him as little as possible - since he “wasn’t allowed to touch royalty” (his words, not mu qings)

once feng xin decided mu qing was not in any immediate danger nor sported any wounds, he came back to stand before him

“the hells up with you?” he asks, eyebrow raised

mu qing sighed, pulling his arms around himself before swiftly walking ahead

“h-hey! your highness!” feng xin shouts, running after him to catch up

once beside him again, feng xin bends his head slightly to match mu qings height so that when mu qing turns, they’re making direct eye contact

“what.”

“what’s wrong? what happened?” feng xin asks again

“nothing, don’t worry about it” mu qing huffs, picking up speed in order to get out of the air that smells faintly of feng xin

“it is quite literally my job to worry about you, come onnnnn, tell meeeee!”

his eyes roll “if i tell you im safe, & moms safe will you drop it?”

“no, but thanks for trying!” feng xin smiles

mu qings heart beats three times faster & he feels his face heat up

gods…feng xins smile had always had an embarrassing effect on him

it always tore down his walls & made him feel warm & safe & trusting

damn you feng xin

he sighed, eyes flicking to feng xins smiling face once more before darting to the hallway ahead

“i have to….im……mama said….”

he bit his lip, pulling his arms impossibly closer in on himself

if he said it out loud, it would be too real

he looked to feng xin once more, seeking the bravery that the archer always radiated

feng xin nodded, gesturing for him to go on

with a deep breath, he rushed out “i’m getting married”

then, seeing the door to his chambers, he sped up even more, wanting to hide away forever

h-HUH?”

he could hear feng xins heavy footsteps race after him

he was so close to his chambers, so close….

he moved to pull open the door…..yet it was slammed shut, feng xins palm flat against it as he cornered mu qing

“married?! you’re getting married?!”

~to be continued~

(being posted on twitter in thread form first, if you’d like to follow along there!)

[peachonified]

Oblivious

He decides to make his move. Getting Bokuto alone isn't hard. No one else stays to practice, and once he's all but spent, it's easy to convince Bokuto to run around and collect all the balls. When the gym is neat enough that they can leave, Akaashi takes a silent breath and casually turns to Bokuto.

"There's someone I like, Bokuto-san."

Bokuto, who had been reaching for his drink bottle, immediately forgets it focusing all his attention on Akaashi. "You like someone? And you're telling me?" He clutches his heart. "I've finally become a dependable senpai! Don't wory, Kaashi! I've got your back, and I'll help!"

Bokuto's face screws up in concentration, and Akaashi has only a moment to think that this is not at all what he expected, but it should have been, before Bokuto is asking, "Is it Kuroo? Cos I've got an in there! But... But no, no, it can't be Kuroo, you're too classy for Kuroo. Oh no... say its not Sakusa? He doesn't like me, but I'll do my best and,-" Bokuto rambles on listing player after uninteresting player until Akaashi snaps.

Stalking forward, he backs the unsuspecting Bokuto up against the wall, placing his hands on either side of Bokuto's head.

"Bokuto-san, the person I like is incredibly oblivious."

Bokuto is still listing names when Akaashi kisses him.

1. Hi guys! This will probably I think goes in the fic finder.

So all I remember is wangxian had gotten together, it was post cannon I think? And they go on a hunt together along with Jiang Cheng or maybe they meet Jiang cheng on the way but either ways, things go wrong and the demon slashes wwx's neck and somehow they all fall down a cliff where lwj and jc try to keep wwx alive.

Thank you!

2. Hi! I hope you are doing well. Please help me find this fic. Wwx erased himself and travel back in time. Wwx saw his parent and they have a little bit conversation, such why the couple never had a child or something. I remember there is a scene where wwx ask ‘how do you know I’m your son?’ then I think csr said ‘I always recognized my husband face everywhere’.

Please help me. Thank you!!!

FOUND? This unrolled threadfic by cerbykerby (WIP)

~*~

3. For a fic finder:

It was during an AU version of the sunshot campaign where people thought that WWX and YLLZ were separate people and LWJ had fallen for both. LWJ decides to gently let down YLLZ but realizes that the two are the same person because he played/recognized wangxian. Thank you for all the help you provide

Thank you anyway and have a nice day

~*~

4. Hello! I'm trying to find this fic where WWX was transported into the body of a female Mo Xuanyu and promptly feels dysphoric about it. When LWJ finds him and takes him back to the Cloud Recesses, he helps WWX feel more comfortable and even allows him to change Mo Xuanyu's name into something else. Somewhere by the end of the fic, it's revealed that the reason why LWJ knows so much about "gender cultivation" is because he himself is trans and found ways to help himself transition.

I can't find it anywhere and I don't wanna lose hope in case it's deleted. Thank you for your help!

5. Hii hope you're having a good day!! I was wondering if you could find a fic where wei ying gets his original body back, completely unrecognisable, and decides to stroll around gusu in lan zhans clothing. People see lan zhan and wei ying together and assume that wei ying is a new consort. They later go together to a conference meeting where everyone gets mad because they think lan zhan is cheating

~*~

6. Hello! I sent in this ff a couple months ago with no luck. Hoping to try again to find it! The fic was set during the Cloud Recesses Lectures era and WWX was cursed to lie. Everyone else mistakenly thought he was cursed to only tell the truth, so when he says things like “I hate you” they believe it. WWX gets really depressed that everyone believes that he doesn’t care about them. The curse is eventually broken when LWJ realizes it is a lie curse not a truth curse. If this sounds familiar at all please let me know!

7. About 4-5 years ago I read a fic where WW awoke as a god of luck/fortune/fate after the siege. He ends up saving a-qing and she ends up following him after "fixing" XXC's soul, as well as XY's soul being stuck in a sword. God!WWX also ended up saving MXY too. The fic is also very long. the first couple of chapters are average length, but the last few are between 30-70k each. @annacakes2

8. looking for a fic where jin zixuan is a demonic cultivator? it's an au or canon divergence fic where it was him who got the sword in xuanwu. appreciate all the help you give us <3

FOUND! no step had trodden black by Stratisphyre (T, 32k, wangxian, LQR & WWX, JYL/JZX, canon divergence, madam lan lives, past rape, golden core reveal, hurt/Comfort, referenced to attempted suicide & suicidal thoughts, canon-typical violence) most likely not this one, as JZX doesn't go full modao (or even guidao) in it, but he does certainly pick up the sword and is influenced by it; just in case this IS the right one, tho, JZX's bit comes up in chapter 3

~*~

9. Hi! This is for fic finder. I dont remember much because i read that around 3 years ago. I hope this is not a mix between wo fic. I think its an arranged marriage story between Wangxian. Every month WWX leaves CRRS to visit the wen without anyone knowing but LWJ (i think he noticed) because LWJ make some arrangement that allows WWX leaves anytime he likes. 1 month and WWX still come back. Just like the following months until LWJ noticed WWX is not coming back. I think before that the two of them has a fight (? Not sure about this). LWJ search for WWX and found him. Instead of make his presence known, LWJ follows WWX in secret. WWX noticed of course and ignore LWJ. A few days like that and WWX relenta and calls LWJ to follow him without hiding. Thats all i can remember. I dont know if its an ao3 fic or thread fic. Thank you @idontknowwhattowriteforusername

9 is right. For the first half is right (wwx leave every few months) but not the second half (LWJ followed wwx while hiding). I think i mixed two different fic. But the "Light of Stars (and the Destroyer)" Is the one i meant. Thanks

~*~

11. Thank you for all the work you do!! I've been driving myself crazy trying to find this fic. All I remember is one scene. At the Jin banquet, Jiang Cheng allows (sends?) WWX to dual Jin What's His Face. WWX obviously trounces him, but nearly has a flashback, prompting JC to pull him back when he realizes that maybe sending his traumatized brother into that situation wasn't the best plan.

It was either a canon diversion or a JC goes back in time fic, but I can't remember which. It was relatively long and it isn't recent.

Ring any bells for anyone? Thanks!! @kirk-spock-in-the-impala

FOUND? Lynchpin by ShanaStoryteller (Not Rated, 103k, WangXian, JC & WWX, Time Travel, Fix-It) JC went back in time and he realized his mistake about the skirmish like right after it happened. The part that they are looking for is in chapter 2.

I’m looking for a fic that was on ao3. It was one where I think WWX was brothers with Hua Cheng and Luo Binghe and I believe he was a god or something of higher power and as a trial he was born as the WWX we knew and he went through everything he did in canon. When he died he ended up back with Hua Cheng and Luo Binghe but LWJ couldn’t move on and he tried to find him there?

17. Hi!! I’m back with another request!

It was an ao3 fic where WWX had left the cultivation world behind because he/she (there was a male and female version I believe) was pregnant with A-Yuan and Jingyi and he/she wanted to give them a better life. LWJ does find them eventually (he’s the father) and he gets to meet the kids. They end up staying together and raising the kids there after LWJ fakes his death @bigmeatycl0ws

18. Hi! I'm looking for a fic where LWJ and WWX have a sex and a love confession during the sunshot campaign. LWJ visits WWX during one night and asks to let him help WWX with his health after using demonic cultivation. WWX , in a fit of rage and a desperate act to drive away LWJ, behaves crudely and proposition him.... I think the name of the fic was "fool for you"? I'm not sure.

Treat Me Like the Dog I Am

Gojō Satoru is Suguru's type on steroids. His shoulders are practically bursting out of his crisp white button-down, he’s got a jawline sharp enough to cut a bitch, his floppy white locks (natural, apparently) fall into his eyes just so — and as for those? Well, Gojō Satoru’s eyes make every other pair of eyes in the world look dull and drab in comparison. Truly, they’re the kind of eyes poets would write sonnets about; Suguru has never seen anything like them. Even hidden behind his round spectacles, Gojō Satoru’s eyes are bright and beautiful and impossibly blue. Lethal, too — especially when the software engineer wields them like a weapon against weaker men. Men like Suguru.

Or, how long can Suguru hold out against his idiot (genius) co-worker's pretty puppy dog eyes?

Demonic Possession and other Misconceptions, by LegacyWorks (🔒, 3 chapters)

Wei Wuxian knows from a young age that he’s a spirit. It’s the only thing that makes sense. This body clearly isn’t his, there’s no way. It doesn’t look right. Every so often he sends a quick thanks and a prayer to the Wei Ying who died all those years ago, the one whose body he’s inhabited his entire conscious life. He hopes that the original Wei Ying’s parents are with him now, even if Wei Wuxian misses them.

It takes meeting Huaisang to realize that maybe Wei Wuxian isn’t actually possessing his body. What even is gender.

Framed by the soft morning light, sleek hair swept back and pale blue robes not even slightly rumpled, he looks almost inhuman.

He looks like the last person who should be knocking on Wei Wuxian’s door.

Loving You From Where I Stand, by GusuBunnie

It hasn’t been long since Wei Ying moved into his new apartment— a mere 6 months, but nonetheless, he loves it. The place was cozy and suitable for a single person like him. Every convenient stop was within walking vicinity and it was a very nice neighborhood. But the most alluring thing, for Wei Ying, was the handsome man who lived in the complex across from his.

Or

Wei Ying is helplessly and deeply in love with his neighbor even though they have never talked.

Jin Zixuan Does the Time Warp, by marigold_sigil (🔒)

Happy endings are not created by wet noodles like Jin Zixuan. Maybe if Lady Fate pushes him two decades into the past hard enough, he’ll actually manage to pull it off. Neither of them think this will really work. Jin Zixuan should have more faith in himself.

Or : How Jin Zixuan trips and stumbles his way into making friends, subsequently keeping everyone alive except the people who don’t deserve it.

Painted Fans, by LaenaEverwood

There are rumors of cultivators randomly falling unconscious in this remote town near Qishan, the victims passing away within a few weeks.

Recently it had claimed another victim.

"Hanguang-jun, I have been given news that may be of great importance. It is from the head disciple Lan Sizhui, regarding Senior Wei."

The brush in Lan Wangji's grip nearly snaps within it's strength.

Or, wwx is found unconscious under an unknown spell, and everyone isn't stopping until he wakes up from his sleep.

Lan Zhan gets glasses…and Wei Ying sees things differently…, by Liebing

This fic is inspired by this adorable art that @kunogi drew from my suggestion on Twitter!

Lan Zhan in glasses

One day Lan Zhan comes to school wearing glasses and Wei Ying loses his god damn mind…

painted in light, by curiositea (🔒, 2nd in a series)

Sometimes Lan Qiren wonders if his nephew resents the rabbits, even if only a little, for making it impossible to completely bury his grief. Are they companions or yet another reminder? Lan Qiren has always prided himself on knowing his nephews, understanding A-Zhan’s reserve and A-Huan’s polite façade. But, without the rabbits, he wonders if he would know just how deep—how down to the marrow, the very atom—A-Zhan’s grief goes.

—

or, a small meditation on a loved one's grief.

I Tried to Be Nice, But My Boyfriend's Bunnies Want To Beet You Up, by katje (🔒, 2nd in a series)

If you had told Wei Ying a few months ago that he would be desperately trying to hold two twenty-five-pound rabbits (who were far heavier than they should be because of their indulgent fathers who were incapable of refusing them treats) back from completely decimating Awful Su She’s stock of bok choy while trying to run his own booth at the Farmer’s Market, he would’ve laughed at the absurdity of the mental image of that statement.

But, dear reader, that was not only a mental image, but Wei Ying’s reality every week for the entire summer season.

Lan Wangji nods. “If you must marry,” he says again, “don’t let it be with anyone else.”

“I don’t think you understand the concept of marriage, Lan Zhan,” Wei Wuxian says with a smile. “I don’t think I can marry myself.” He lets out a laugh at the thought, before Lan Wangji’s words click in his head. “Unless you mean…”

Lan Wangji holds his gaze.

“Jiang Cheng?” Wei Wuxian asks incredulously.

Rabbit Charm, by aoeros (🔒)

“You gotta promise me that when you’re back home and settled in, I’ll be the first you come to see. Because I’m going to miss you more than anyone else will, Lán Zhàn. Except your brother, of course.”

“Of course. I promise to come find you first after I’ve settled back in.”

“Great! Then I promise to call you whenever I can. And, I will definitely not forget you.”

I got kidnapped by a model???, by yamadori (Katsumi27)

In retrospect, it was only a matter of time. As much as he wanted it and believed it to be possible, it was silly to think he could get through art school on Madame Yu's dollar. No, it's definitely better this way.

Wei Wuxian finally gets kicked out of art school. In the past three months not a soul from his old life has heard from him and he'd like to keep it that way thank you very much. And although it's been far from easy, things are starting to look up for him. That is, until he's dragged bodily into a world of vanity and flashing lights that he has no business being in and shoved into the arms of the worlds most gorgeous man (or at least man-shaped heavenly being, Wei Wuxian is convinced he can't be mortal).

Lean On Me (An Anthology of Jin Ling's Uncles), by thesassyredvulpes

Six months after the events of the Guanyin Temple, the sixteen-year-old Jin Ling rises to his new role as Clan Leader Jin. As the youngest clan leader in history, he faces challenges and looks to different figures in his life for guidance.

Six men individually offer their insight to the young man, and through him, recall their own stories and identities.

A collection of short stories, inspired by the song lyrics of "Lean On Me" by Bill Withers. Borrows both canons of the Untamed and The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation, but leans more towards the live-action.

Story One: Sorrow (Jiang Cheng)

General:

An Unforseen Shift, by Remma3760

Wei Wuxian found a resentful sword deep in the bowels of a famed beast. He took it. That turned out to be fortunate since, it would seem, the sword had more than one purpose. That sword was the key to their escape from certain death trapped in the cave of the Slaughter Xuanwu.

The Unintended, by Indelible_Faith (TheWaterGoddess), Thedivinewriter_20

Jiang Cheng and Nie Huaisang have a perfect plan. Get Lan Wangji to confess how much Wei Wuxian annoys him out loud. And Jin Zixuan to confess his ill-treatment of Jiang Yanli in a similar manner.

Perhaps “confess” was the wrong word used here… because this is not turning out how they imagined it, at all!

Thanks everyone who read the threadfic I wrote earlier today and patiently waited for me to transfer it over here. ❤️❤️

I have a very small secret - the concept was originally a ficlet I got stuck writing so this helped me work out in my brain what the next step was. Expect it to maybe get posted to Ao3 sometime this week? Maybe?

In other writing news today:

I worked a bit on my RBB fic edits. It’ll be posted on Friday, August 9, so watch for that! I’m working with @anshares on a buddy daddies au - very spy assassins found family. (I’ve only seen the first episode of buddy daddies so don’t expect it to match super closely)

I also worked a bit on my falling in love w former betrothed childhood arranged marriage modern au. It has vibes from the beginning act of The Swan Princess where they utterly despised each other, refused to get married, then meet as adults. I didn’t write much but did figure out how it ends!

❤️❤️ xoxo

(You’re all going to read and comment once stuff hits ao3 right? Right?)

[iamthelemonlord]

Wangxian au thoughts that keep popping up in my mind. Might work in this and post on ao3:

*cw for saliva*

A 'mysterious girlfriend x' au. I can see this working with Wei Wuxian, being the new student. Instead of people thinking he's weird like in the au series, he'd be like in mdzs: charismatic. I think wwx would be the girlfriend role because he would actually sleep in class, waking up in the middle of it, and start laughing about his dream. The original character has more of a Lan wangji personality, but lwj would be a freak enough to lick the leftover drool on wwx's desk like the boy in the comic, which is why I'd put them in these roles. The dream of them dancing in a world that looks like ruin but still beautiful is more a wwx thing, but I can still see lwj having that dream too. But yes, if anyone gonna be love sick and need their lovers still drool so they don't get a fever, it'll be lwj, though unlike the comic, they'd be kissing instantly. Now, would wwx keep scissors in the lining of his undies? 🤔 I'd like to think so, but that's so much more a stoic character trait lmao

I do wonder if lwj would be brave enough to ask for sexual things like the guy did in the series? Wwx would def just let him grab him anywhere without even asking lmao but it really shows the awkwardness of being a teen to be like "may I grab a boobie 🥺👉👈" this feels more wwx too though but teen lwj maybe would be shy and ask lol

Anyways, maybe I'll try writing this out someday. I like the lovesick aspect and the only thing to cure it is to drink the lovers saliva once a day 🤣

This is the image of them dancing in the comic btw. I keep thinking of this comic note and again cuz of all the details the creator made for the background. It was insane. I love this series

Tried it a threadfic. Will fix it one day for ao3

🔞 ‘The Price of Milk’ Butchlander Threadfic 🥛

For Butchlander Week 2024, DAY 2 PROMPT: Milk

SUMMARY: Have you seen Karl Urban’s obscure New Zealand 2000 movie: The Price of Milk? That’s it; that’s the plot. The gist of this short 🔞 oneshot threadfic is Butcher has been working undercover as a devastatingly sexy but unremarkable dairy farmer, and the main twist is the handsome amnesiac “John” who’s been temporarily lodging with him “until he regains his memories” might be hiding a little secret of his own. I am agog that seemingly no one’s written this fever dream of an AU before, where Butcher’s actor is a literal dairy farmer and you got Homelander with his milk fetish?? …Very well. I volunteer as tribute!

(The rest of the threadfic can be read here!)

If you don’t have a Twitter account, I have screenshotted the rest of the spicy half below the line break:

A/N - Thoughts? Opinions? I'd love to hear them! Sorry for the somewhat abrupt ending but this was 67 tweets long when I'd originally planned around 25, haha. If I'd do anything differently, I think I'd keep Butcher's alias as "ordinary civvie dairy farmer who immigrated from England" when the lovers reunite. That way it's even more fun(ny) when the truth comes out that Butcher is actually a badass secret spy working for the US government.

I want y'all to know he goes from this 👨🏻‍🌾 ➡️ to this 🔪 (iiiiit's the contrast)

(Now that you’re done reading, you can read my other 🔞 “milk” threadfic here. They’re unrelated alternate universes.)

Laurent's Relationship with Akielos

by Summer in Florence

Originally a threadfic on twitter! Pair: Lamen / Laurent x Damen Tags: AU where Auguste lives and Laurent is just one happy prince consort of King Damianos

Laurent is never one without a running mind. He thinks like he's marathoning the globe—nonstop, neverending. His defining nature, of sorts, perhaps even force of habit. A schemer by word of mouth, scatterbrained by truth.

Akielos learns to understand that that is why their Exalted's dearest consort is in said particular shape. Many moons after his arrival on a ship, guarded by King Auguste's men, and received personally by Damianos, everyone gains a new perspective of Laurent.

That he was once just a 'pompous lover that doesn't deserve our Exalted', but after so long watching Laurent's movements, thoughts, conversations with their King, speeches and behaviours, the Akielons came to know intimately that he's merely someone rich in the mind.

Damianos is another kind, one that becomes prideful if his points are proven to be correct. He loathed the way early gossips talked about Laurent behind his back, spouting lies about how their betrothal were only political, and that Laurent seduced him for power.

For years he wanted to show people, his people, of the wonders that is his consort. Several balls, banquets, festivities—Damen allowed Laurent to be first in charge of it all, making a subtle, public statement of 'my lover is not as you think'. And nobles, they were easy to win. Citizens and those outside the palace walls are less so. 'Aristocracy tell-tales' they deemed it, worse, 'political sham'. Damen tries again for the Harvest festival this solstice; Laurent manages every detail of it all. And yet, he can't help but to be stressed about his lover.

"You're as tense as a stick in deep mud," Laurent says. The festival is right in motion, just at the peak of it all. They are watching from a platform, watching the evening light in festive joy. Damen purses his lips.

"Do they not want to acknowledge your hard work?"

"I did work hard for this." The Veretian admires his results; hundreds, even thousands of Akielons flooding the streets, chanting gratefulness of the crops they have planted and reaped for the season.

"Yes. And I have yet to hear a single person say your name."

Laurent laughs, openly and heartily. If it were any other day, Damen surely would have been too occupied listening to the sound of his consort's joyful self than wallow like this. He only spares Laurent a concerned glance, slouching so much that his cape makes a show of weighing the large man down.

Through his glee, Laurent snorts. "Oh, Damianos, lover," he cackles, "your desire to be right is overwhelming you!"

And maybe it is the positioning, maybe it's because they linger upon the raised floors where the dais were placed, because several of the onlookers sitting on the cavea begins to turn their heads around, wanting to know the insolence that has insulted their King on his merry way.

"Laurent, I spent years trying to change their mind about you. Yet I still can't squash the rumours that you are only here for my power, that you do not have value in my court more than a... a glorified pet!" Damen bursts, uncaring of the ogling men below them. Let winds blast his voice all over the country, he won't care. "Are you not bothered, Laurent? Do you not care about me?"

Fragipani and incense-smoke blow against their sandals. Laurent's chiton flowy as the breeze find the fold of his hemline. For a moment, even if the music soars from beneath them, they are quiet.

Laurent captures Damen's hands. "I am more bothered by your fear of free-thinking, because genuinely, as your lover of your estate, you have been listening to too much scullions gossip as they dilly-dally in the utilities," Laurent scoffs. "I have heard worse things, Damianos. Your people just know me from my façade, as everyone does."

Damen nearly stumbles when Laurent digs his hands around his wrists, pulling the brute to a little dance that resembles the Veretian kind; the one Laurent knows all his life.

He glows incandescently, a fresh expression unknown outside chamber doors. Laurent laughs like a youth, truly one of his age, being so young married off to a gentle, foreign King.

Damen begins to follow along. "Laurent!" He shouts, a smile blossoming in his cheeks.

"My façade, Damen! You're stressing over a façade!" He squeals when Damen spins him around, nimble to the tune.

It's silly. It is. Bringing their honest selves into view, fished out by Damen's curious frustration for the span of two years. It's unbecoming for Kings to let his inhibitions down, freely dancing with a consort during an event where he's supposed to observe, but Laurent's whirlwind seems to evaporate his stresses down—and if anything, just goes to show the grandeur of Laurent's managerial skills. It's not easy to make up space for them to wind down on an event this large.

Until, the crowd of Akielons below them, sing Laurent's name.

"Laurent, Laurent, Laurent!" They praise. Voices soar to the dais, stopping two men amidst their jolly dance together. Damen nudges his lover.

"Go, let them see you," he says, trying to hold himself from the pride that swells in his chest.

When Laurent kneels over the edge, waving a shy hello for Damen's people, the whole country cheers. Their shouts akin to a lion's roar, clapping and singing. Flowers are thrown, bouquets passed between people in the cavea for Laurent to hold. Damen achieves his job well-done.

Akielons knew Laurent then as just a cunning schemer, disbelieving of Damen's intentions to choose him as consort as they thought he had seduced the Exalted for power. That Laurent is null in real value, that his talents were a sham.

And today, they know Laurent as something else entirely. One with a mind so brilliant, it is mind-boggling to imagine him managing to pulling all the strings—even if such is the reality. One that puts up faces of professionalism, only to falter in the arms of Damen, his lover.

Turns out, it wasn't difficult to change a nation's mind. All Damen needed was Laurent's smile, and the sincerities that bubble in between them.

END!

She sucks in a sharp breath. Her next words are so soft that he has to strain his ears. "Pat, I don't want you to be lonely." The screen goes to sleep again. Pat doesn't touch his phone. He can barely make out the shape of Paa's face, and he knows she can't see him either. "Silly. Why would I be lonely?" (Or: Pran runs an advice column radio show at his university. Pat nearly dropped out of high school. Somehow, Pat becomes Pran’s #1 insomniac caller. To Pat, Pran is out of his league. He’d rather stay anonymous than face rejection, but un(fortunately) for Pat, Pran has other plans.)

Pat/Pran - 27k+ (7/?, ongoing)

On and on, he counts with this stranger, who holds Pran between two hands with the lightest touch.

He doesn't expect anyone to catch him, but Pat would never walk away.)

your gravity, my orbit

Pran and Pat end up attending different universities, but something always brings them back to each other. When they meet again, they get a chance to pretend, to take a break from life as Pat and Pran, childhood rivals. What remains of them might be more than what Pat could’ve ever expected, but he knows this: Pat is not going to let Pran get away a second time.

Pat/Pran - 5.6k (one-shot)

worth the wait

Pat and Pran are childhood friends, roommates, co-owners of a condo, fathers to a Scottish Fold, lifelong rivals, and if they’re feeling particularly sentimental, soulmates. Pat and Pran are not in love. (Or: originally a twitter threadfic – Teenaged Ming makes a decision that saves his friendship with Dissaya and their children from a lifetime of grief. Pat and Pran grow up together, and at 31, remain inseparable and platonic. So platonic, in fact, that when Pat attends a holiday party as Pran’s plus one, he finds out that he’s known at Pran’s workplace as his boyfriend.)

Pat/Pran - 25.5k (9/9, complete)

How can you miss someone you see every day? (Or: Nanon heads to the beach. He wishes that he knew what was in store for him, for Ohm, and for whatever shaky ground the two stand on now. For better or worse, his wish is heard, and he meets an older Ohm from a not-so-distant future. This Ohm is healthier and happier and everything Nanon could hope for his best friend. But where does Nanon fit in this picture?)

“I bet you wish they sold engagement rings instead of cakes, huh?” Ink teases under her breath. Pran ducks his head to hear her properly. “What do you mean?” Ink subtly inclines her head towards Pat, who is helping another couple at the counter. “Then maybe you’d have an excuse for him to hold your hand. You know, during a ring fitting.” (Or: Pran and Ink attend a wedding expo as fake fiancés to get all the free samples they can get their hands on. The Jindapat siblings run a cake booth at the expo. Pran seriously considers the merits of dumping Ink in front of the entire exhibition hall and eloping with Pat, whose smiles are even sweeter than his cakes.)

Pat/Pran - 4.6k (one-shot)

something blue

Pran brushes away the last few tears on Pat’s cheeks. “Ah, my Pat,” Pran says. “You have such a big heart.” (Or: A “Something Borrowed & Something New” sequel. Not a coda, maybe an interlude. Pat and Pran are in love, through good days and bad days.)

Pat/Pran - 4.1k (one-shot)

the season of you

“I promise. Wait for me. I’ll go slow.” (Or: Pran loses Pat and struggles to cope. After an accident, he develops the ability to see ghosts. He encounters Tess, the ghost of a former schoolmate who has regrets of his own. The two become unlikely friends, and Pran, slowly but surely, learns to live the way Pat would want him to.)

somnio, ergo sum (scaralumi)

contains: sexual themes, dub-con/non-con, bondage, not sfw author's notes: originally posted as a threadfic on twitter; might move the rest of them here soon and organize into a masterlist

Lumine wakes up with a gasp, and the world is pitch black—not for a lack of light, per se, but because she can’t open her eyes. A blindfold has been slung over her eyes, the cloth silk soft. Tied tight enough that shaking her head does nothing. 

Goosebumps prickle on her neck, the entirety of her body exposed to cool air. Her wrists have been bound, pulled above her head with something that feels like chains. Her ankles too, manacled together with cold steel. She tries to get to her feet, but the chain between the shackles is too short to support the motion. Lumine falls to her knees, yelping at the brutal impact of the wooden floor on her shin. She rolls her jaws, taking stock of the situation. She’s naked. Bound. Helpless. 

What the hell is happening? 

The last she remembers, she’d fallen asleep next to Paimon after settling down for the night. They’d been on their way to Caravan Ribat after solving Nahida’s cryptic message: even in a moonless night, a shower of starlight can still drown out illusions and lies. 

But the stone floor beneath her is not the soft forest earth she remembers setting up camp on. 

“Paimon? Are you here?” she whispers. Her voice echoes, and it must be a grand hall that she’s in, because the sound fades away too slowly. A little braver for it—larger space means better fighting chances, if she can just get these damn bindings off of her somehow, get her hand on some sort of weapon in this ridiculous situation—Lumine says a little louder, “Paimon!”

“That’s not my name, traveller.”

At the silky, low tone, Lumine flinches, expecting a blow. Nothing. Just his voice, echoing around her, rich with amusement. She grits her teeth. “Balladeer.”

“That’s not quite right either,” Scaramouche hums, “but I’ll forgive you this time. On account of your ignorance.”

“What the hell do you mean?”

“You should know by now,” he says, “that I hate repeating myself.” The clip of sandals around her, one step, two step, three. Circling around her like a vulture, the shift of his position disorienting to track. 

The last she’d seen of him had been when she’d been transferred to Nahida’s body, the brief glimpses she caught of his position. The giant mechanical armour he’d been standing on. That indigo crackle of his eyes, bright enough to match any lightning storm. And that knowing smile as he’d glanced at her. His ominous proclamation nestled in her chest, cold and foreboding. Yet to be dislodged. Words, but not spoken. Felt, in her mind. I see you.

“Where am I?” she demands, trying to shift her head, trying to figure out where he is. “What kind of sick, twisted plan is this, Harbinger?”

Finally, the sound of his footsteps fades. He’s stopped moving. “Where do you think you are, traveller?” he whispers—right next to her ear. When had he shifted so close?! His breath feathers against the shell of her ear, his mouth just barely touching. Enough for her to feel the warmth of his lips. Lumine bites her tongue, struggling harder against the chains, but to no avail. 

“You—!” she splutters, every muscle in her body tensed for a fight. But she can’t do anything other than bare her teeth, not when she’s naked and weaponless, chained up for his convenience. It’s only a miracle that he hasn’t—

“Killed you yet?” At his lilting words, Lumine flinches. How did he know what she’d been thinking of? But his voice continues, mocking her. “Why would I do that, when you’re tied up like a pretty gift? I don’t even have to prepare you to receive me.”

Receive me. The words make her go cold, even colder than she already feels, a chill running down her spine. What is happening to her? What kind of cruel plan does he have in store for her? “You’re sick,” she spits.

“Am I?” His voice is soft, but dangerously sharp against her skin. Cool fingers grab her by the jaw, forcing her head to tilt up. Even though she can’t see, she knows he’s looking at her, inspecting her as though she’s a particularly interesting specimen. “You may think I’m cruel now, but I could be so much worse.”

“Go to hell.”

“Been there, done that,” the Balladeer says coolly, his grip on her tightening, hard enough to feel the heat of pain. And then his hand leaves her jaw. She almost misses the warmth. “Not too interesting, the Abyss,” he continues. “A little too dark for my taste. Nothing as fun as you to play with, traveller.”

Lumine takes in a deep breath, steadying her nerves. “Is this all a game to you?” Lumine asks flatly.

A hand splays across her neck. Not clenching, fingers only delicately poised on the spine of her back, but the threat of it makes her freeze all the same. “Not a game,” Scaramouche murmurs. “Something better.”

“Enlighten me,” she challenges.

“Curious choice of words, traveller.”

“Either answer me or shut up, Balladeer.”

“What does every god need?” he says, a question asked with no pause, spoken only for him to answer. “A nation to prove his existence, followers to prove his worth”—the hand at her neck tightens, and she whimpers, breath cut off—”and tribute to prove his power.”

Madness, she thinks. This is madness.  And that’s when he releases her. She splutters, gulping for air, and he laughs. He laughs, as though she’d performed an amusing trick for him. “I’m quite sane,” he says. “More sane than I have been, at any point of my miserable existence before my ascension.”

“I don’t belong to anyone but myself,” Lumine rasps.

“You came at such a convenient time, traveller,” Scaramouche says, ignoring her. Or perhaps her opinion matters as little as the stone floor beneath him, something not seen and not heard, only there to be used. “I’d been getting bored, waiting for something to happen.”

And then, the space rearranges around her. Lumine gasps as the chains rattle, pulling her up until her toes are barely touching the ground. Suspended in the air, useless weight, hung like a weather doll tied at both ends.

“I’d like to carve my name here,” he muses, finger pressing down on the left side of her chest, nail digging into the skin right above her pounding heart. “As proof.

“No,” Lumine says, fear snaking down her spine. “Don’t.”

Scaramouche only hums again, cupping her left breast. Lets it rest in his palm, rubbing his thumb over the perked nipple—Lumine starts at the contact. Suddenly realizes how warm his touch has become, searing like molten metal. How it flashes down her body, straight to the area between her legs. “I could make it good for you,” he purrs, a quietly-veiled threat, a knife on her skin. “I could make it so, so good.”

“As if—” And then. Rough, wet heat, the lap of a tongue at her breast. A knee, between her thighs, pressed against her crotch. Lumine gasps, any words she meant to say lost in the exhale that feels as if it’s been punched from her gut, and Scaramouche shoves his fingers in her mouth, the bastard. She gags, caught off guard at the sudden intrusion, her saliva getting everywhere. It’s too much, this strange place she’s been transported too, at the mercy of a man—a soon-to-be god, now—who’d hurt her over and over again, but his mouth is latched onto her chest, teasing her nipple with a flash of teeth that makes her keen. 

Any movement she has available is only shiver and sway, two-dimensional, reduced to a golden bead of pearl, strung on an unseen leash.

Scaramouche releases her from his mouth, a pop of saliva that has her tremble in acute shame, sedimenting anger. When he removes his hand, it’s only to skirt down from her breasts, the tip of his index fingers trailing past the belly button, the slick of her drool marking her skin. He parts through the soft hair above her mound to find her cunt, tracing the dripping seam. “Why,” he purrs, “I didn’t expect you to be so wet—is what I would say, if I wasn’t so intimately attuned to your thoughts.”

He’s insane, she thinks. Something in his mind is not right. She’d thought him mad before, but nothing compares to this delusion.

“Just treat this like a dream,” he coos, revelling in her desperation, and then his finger dips inside her, no resistance at all. He strokes her walls, humming when she lets out a strangled whine. “Release your inhibitions. Enjoy yourself, like your god intends.”

“I don’t,” Lumine says, an unwitting moan escaping her throat when he bites down on her neck, no finesse, just brutal ownership. 

“You do,” he says.  One finger becomes two, and it’s all she can do to stifle herself when he grinds the heel of his palm against her clit, and she is so close to begging—for him to stop immediately, for him to hurry up with whatever it is that he intends to torture her with, if only to stop this dream—

A dream, he’d said. Like a dream.

In her panic, she’d forgotten. There is no way he could have reached her; not while he was linked to that machine. And if that was impossible, this is not reality.

Who is the origin of this dream? Does a puppet dream?

He stiffens, staccato thrusting of his hand suddenly ceased. “Give it up already,” Scaramouche says, voice blisteringly cold. “You can’t do anything.”

“You’re wrong,” she says, the note of triumph sweet on her tongue.  “I’m not helpless here.”

“You are. I am your god.” His voice trembles for a second. She bites the inside of her cheek, hard enough to taste blood. The taste grounds her, and she wills the world to change, bending the atmosphere around her. The air tenses, and then it’s all flurried motion—a blast of wind from nowhere, ripping off her blindfold, silk undulating in the gale. When she opens her eyes, she’s inundated by the dim violet glow of his eyes, glittering with a terrible, terrible anger. 

“You will not leave,” he demands, his hand snatching for her throat, but it’s all crumbling, the platform, the chains, her body. “This is my domain!”

“And this is my dream, Balladeer,” she says, defiant. “You won’t have me so easily.”

“This is not the end, traveller,” he snarls. “I promise you, we will meet again.”

“I hope you rot,” she snaps—

—and that’s when she startles awake, eyes flying open, her heart pounding in her ears. Reality blankets over her like first snow, familiar sensations returning to her. The warmth of her blanket over her clothed body. Shallow breathing next to her head, small, soft hands rested on her cheek.

The burn between her thighs is still there, carried over from the dream. If she were to touch herself under her dress, she knows she’d be sticky with wetness. 

Lumine stares up at the night sky, and the twinkle of the stars reminds her of his eyes. That furious glare as he’d swiped for her body, only to have everything fade away. Lumine does not scare easily. She’s seen too much, fought too hard. But remembering the vow he’d made—the desperation in his voice, the hunger in his eyes—she can’t help but shiver. 

This is not the end, traveller. We will meet again.

1. I'm looking for a fic that's during the Cloud Recesses study arc where, WWX I think, found out Wen Chao couldn't read and started teaching him. I think a couple of the other kids started helping him, MianMian maybe? I can't remember much but they definitely helped him learn how to read and became friends. TIA

I'm looking for a collection of one shots, and I can't find it, I read it a little while ago but I remember a one shot, where Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying were discussing the fact that Wei Ying had saved the heirs of the sects in cave and Jin Ling was listening and Wei Ying was saying that if he hadn't saved the heirs Jin Ling wouldn't exist and Jiang Cheng said something like, Whatever....

quote:

Wei Wuxian slammed him against the wall again, cutting off his rapid ramblings and jostling his fractured arm. "Your stories bore me," he spoke lowly, peering his head around slightly so as to almost look into Heng She's face. He still had yet to acknowledge Lan Wangji's presence.

I want to read the whole thread but my app closed. 💔 Can you guys help me with it? I cant find it anymore.

5. Hi, I need help finding a fic I’m pretty sure I’ve seen recommended on here a couple years ago.

I don’t remember the title or the author. It was on AO3. It was an Alternative Universe fic where WWX is an art student (and lived in a dorm with the Wen siblings) and LWJ has a very active but discreet sex life. WangXian know each other but they’re not together. Eventually they start sleeping with each other (WWX doesn’t realize LWJ actually likes him and he’s not just another hookup). There is also a secondary plot about one of LWJ’s past hookups stalking and tormenting them at a club or party at some point? T

his is all I can remember, unfortunately. I hope to reach someone who knows which fic this is by asking on here. WangXian nation, do your thing! 🙏

6. For fic finder, a fic I read a good while back.

It was one of those “jgs magically spies on the burial mounds to get people to hate wwx and the remnants” but in this one wwx and lwj did the “a-yuan is birthed from wwx” thing and the people spying believe it. Lqr passes out for a bit and lxc and jc start planning a wedding since lwj apparently deflowered wwx. I think it was completed

7. Hello! Here's one I've read a dozen times and would swear I have bookmarked, but now I can't find it. Basically, LZ is a courtesan/assassin who's sent by JGS to seduce and kill the powerful Yiling Patriarch. Meng Yao is working with LZ, although he has his own plans against JGS, of course. WWX later realizes LZ's brother is alive and looking for him, so he brings them together. (By the way, are you thinking of adding a Courtesan compilation? There are plenty of good ones to rec!)

10. Hello!! I love this blog, where I find fics to read!! A few days ago, I asked someone to find me a fic, but I'm here again because I remembered med and another fic that I loved reading, but currently can't find.

The things I remember: Wangxian has an spiritual connection, which is why the golden core transfer does not occur (and it is qing who informs Wei Ying of the connection, as Madam Yu knew and gave tea to undo the connection but it did not work ) and if I'm not mistaken Yanli is the one who told Wei Ying that the spiritual connection no longer exists (which is obviously wrong)

If you can't find it, I ask you to recommend something similar.

Thank you ❤💛🖤 @sweettiebah

14. Hi! For next fic finder, could you help me find a modern wangxian au with combination of arranged marriage, marriage of convenient (i think it is), and contract marriage. YZY arranged a marriage between WWX and LWJ for a bussiness cooperation. WWX agreed to that so he can get away from the Jiang (especially YZY) and to make his own carrier. Then LWJ and WWX make a contract to make the marriage last until 2 years and decided if they want to keep the marriage or not. I think LWJ playing his guqin and WWX is used to that and when 2 years almost up, WWX didnt want to get divorce. The fic is focused about them getting to know each other. I think thats all i can remember. I read that in 2021 so the detail is kinda patchy. If you dont know the fic at least a confirmation that im not the only one that ever read this. Thank you! @idontknowwhattowriteforusername

Hi, im #14. Unfortunately its not the fic that iam searching for. The one that iam serching for focused on wangxian, other characters barely appears. Even the jiangs only gets mentioned. Wwx didnt work for Jiang, i think he is graphic design freelancer? The agrement for divorce is between the two of them, their family didnt know about their agreement. They choose how long they stay together before divorce after they think that the project between their family is finished so their divorce wont effect the project. WWX even has a plan after their divorce to open his own office. If i remember corectly, WWX realize he didnt want to get divorced is a few days before the day of their divorce. Like he is in his room and thinking that after their divorce, he cant listening to LWJ playing his guqin and spend their days together and he didnt want that.

I really hope i didnt mix several fic together. Thank you!

This is for the fic finder and I'm not quite sure about this so just to be safe I don't want to upset anyone so

This is what I remember: WWX is roofied or SA'ed in the Cloud Recesses ( I don't remember if that is shown) and there's a lot about how he handle it (denial? minimizing? disassociation?), and LWJ is there, he didn't do it, he is good, and anti-victim-blaming? if that makes sense?

16. Hi! For fic finder, I am looking for a short-ish fic where Jin Ling learns that Wei Wuxian is the one who named him “Rulan.” Jin Ling then realizes he is named after the Lans, and he has a teenage meltdown about how he is named after his uncle’s crush. Does this sound familiar? Thank you, everyone, for all your help! @gloriousclotpole

FOUND! three days gone by occultings (microcomets) (G, 4k, JL & WWX, WangXian, Post-Canon, Family Bonding, Homophobic Language, Fluff) there may be a few fics that fit, is it maybe the one where jin ling and jiang cheng are reading sect letters together, and jin ling got mad about being called "rulan"? so far i found another fic, ig it's "similar" since jin ling's only mad for one sentence, but i thought to link it anyway

17. Hi! I'm looking for a fic, but i only remember a specific scene from it: wwx and the wens on the horses and it's raining and lan zhan lets them go, but then i guess granny wen says go back and get him, and when they return, lan zhan is soaking wet and she says something along the lines of 'dramatic young people'.

18. Hi, I'm looking for an AU WIP fic where WWX has to wear a mask; nobody but family is allowed to see his face. He and LWJ have an arranged marriage, but LWJ still refuses to let him take his mask off, and doesn't make any effort in the marriage. Very soon after they are married, he takes Wen Qing as a concubine, without explaining anything to WWX. WWX moves to a house near Lotus Pier, and there is a bit about him adopting children, but I can't remember how that came about... Thank you! @godiva696

20. Hello! I’m looking for a fic where during the Sunshot Campaign, Wei Wuxian was able to tame the Xuanwu, resulting in victory. However, he wasn’t fully able to control its bloodlust so it was sequestered onto an island in Lotus Pier.

However, he leaves one day for a brief visit to Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yanli, JGS paid a child to visit the island and the child is killed. This causes WWX to go with the Xuanwu into the water surrounding the island and he disappears for many years.

Later on, Jin Ling ends up trying to prove himself by going into the forest surrounding this island (which has since filled with resentful energy). And finds that WWX has come back and the Xuanwu has been purified.

I’m not sure if it’s been deleted??
