MDZS Fanon VS Canon: 6/?
Jiang Fengmian was in love with Cangse Sanren
Rating: RUMOR
Some characters, notably Wang Lingjiao and Madam Yu, bring up the gossip that Jiang Fengmian was in love with Wei Wuxian's mother in order to reason why he seems to favor Wei Wuxian over his own wife and son. Despite the idea originating in the text, however, there is no concrete evidence either way, so it cannot be considered "canon." Instead, this is only an in-text rumor.
Supposedly, "the entire cultivation world knew" the rumors surrounding the Jiang marriage drama, but as we learn in the very first chapter, the information spread throughout the cultivation world is incredibly inaccurate and relies on misinformation (Seven Seas Ch. 1, Ch. 12).
We do know that even at the time, people thought Jiang Fengmian and Cangse Sanren were romantically involved:
Speculation abounded that Cangse-sanren was extremely likely to become the next mistress of Lotus Pier. To everyone’s surprise, it was around this time that the Yu Clan of Meishan proposed a marriage alliance with the Jiang Clan of Yunmeng.
(Seven Seas Ch. 12)
But as established above, while the popularity of this rumor implies that it may have been based in fact, the assumptions that the "cultivation world" makes are not a reliable source of information.
Crucially, of the few characters who mention the rumor aloud, it is Madam Yu herself who first brings it up with her husband:
"I refuse to believe you haven’t heard the gossip—that after so many years, Sect Leader Jiang is still obsessed with a certain Sanren and sees his old friend’s son as his own. Everyone speculates whether Wei Ying is your…"
(Seven Seas Ch. 12)
But only a few pages later, Wei Wuxian refutes this "nonsensical bullshit":
“My mom and dad are real people and have names. I can’t stand when people blindly assign me to other families!”
(Seven Seas Ch. 12)
With all this contradictory evidence in the books and no first-person account from someone who witnessed their relationship (Wei Wuxian wasn't born yet; Madam Yu only refers to the gossip as if she learned it second-hand; Jiang Fengmian never confirms nor denies), there is no way to know for sure whether Jiang Fengmian had feelings for Cangse Sanren.
However, canonically, multiple characters labor under this assumption. In the end, because of the complicated nature of this topic and its roots in the text, the idea that Jiang Fengmian was in love with Wei Wuxian's mother has to remain a rumor.

it’s been so long since i watched Insomniac’s Wolverine teaser trailer and dp3 got me thinking about it again so just rewatched it,, god.
so excited to see where they take it, i can’t remember if they confirmed that it was going to be “open world” similar to the way GOW (2018) is when certain parts of the map open up for side quests, and generally tried not to pay much attention to the wolverine leaks when they got hacked last winter, but i really do want to see how their studio takes on a rated M game/hero, and logan in particular. i think it’s a safe bet that maybe there isn’t any spider-man 2 dlc coming down the pipeline which kinda bums me out but it’s not the worst thing in the world if all that means is they’re full throttle into wolverine development with what i imagine is gonna end up being a late 2025/early 2026 release date.
and if the way i latched onto insomniac’s version of pete is any indication i’m prepared to be so. insufferable about this

Rumors Behind Sly Hands by Traumatas
Fic can be read HERE.
Fluff, Coming Out, Established Relationship, Family. Completed. Rated: G. Word Count: 3560
Pairings: Kageyama Ritsu/Suzuki Shou, Kageyama Ritsu & Kageyama ‘Mob’ Shigeo
Trigger Warnings: None
“"Is everything alright? Did something happen?" Ritsu asks, voice filled with concern."
Not really. There's just something I'd like to talk about." Shigeo sounds relatively determined even if he's obviously anxious about it. There's a moment of hesitation before he pulls out the chair next to Ritsu's to sit down, the both of them facing each other properly now. His brother takes a long and deep breath, placing his hands on his knees and leaning forward. "I'm worried."
-----------------
Ritsu had always wanted to let Shigeo know, but he never truly had the chance. Now that he's faced with the possibility to do so, it's a little more awkward than he expected.”
