#this is a lowkey wangxian post

[etherealiity]

ever since I read that one analysis of Heathcliff digging up and lying with Cathy's body and what exactly it meant back in like seventh grade I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since.

it's an intimate, quiet goodbye that lingers. a final act of love. holding close the only person you have ever loved like you're just a scared child seeking solace from all the monsters that hide in the dark. it is a desperate grasping for a heart that used to beat alongside your own. it's desperation, ugly and raw and wailing. it's praying prayers in vain and screaming towards the heavens for your angel to fall once more. it's seeking comfort from the only person left - even if they are nothing more than hollow emptiness. it is still them. you remember them, bright, lovely, laughing. it is now the only way you can be close. to them ever again. it is still not close enough, but it is all that you have left.

every ship must experience this at least once.

[sincerelystranger]

this was in my WIP but it’s basically a snippet of the same universe as this short (which is basically some thoughts about an ArrangedMarriage!AU) 

---

The first thing Wangji notices when he enters the Jiangshi is that the room is cold.

The second thing is that Wei Wuxian is laid in his cot again – the thin, useless thing his uncle had insisted Wei Wuxian sleep on when they first married.

Wei Wuxian turns when he hears Wangji enter. His thin face lighting up with a smile. “Hanguang-jun, you’re back!” he says brightly. He moves to get up and Wangji can see the way his thin arms shake.

The pain in his chest is familiar by now, but it hurts nonetheless.

“No need to stand,” Wangji says, quickly walking over towards the cot.

Wei Wuxian is already sitting up, the thin blanket falling down from his shoulders. He smiles ruefully at Wangji. “Grandmaster Lan will berate me for not giving you a proper welcome,” he says, “but if Hanguang-jun is okay with it, I will welcome you back home from here.”

“You can welcome me back as you please,” Wangji says, kneeling down in front of Wei Wuxian. “I will not let uncle berate you.” He reaches to take a hand into his.

It’s cold.

There’s a slight trembling running through Wei Wuxian’s thin fingers. His skin, red where it’s spread paper thin across his knuckles, is cold to the touch.

“The Jiangshi is cold,” Wangji says, bringing the knuckles to his lips.

“It’s my fault, I’m sorry,” Wei Wuxian apologizes, shyly taking back his hand. This action would have been devastating to Wangji a few weeks ago. He would have taken it as a rejection. A sign that his advances were unwanted.

Now…

Well, Wangji knows better now. He knows the fault lies with him and the thousands of things he let be misunderstood.

Wangji takes Wei Wuxian’s hand in his again and rises to sit next to him. Pressing against him so that there is no space left between them. He brings Wei Wuxian’s hand into his lap and holds it. “Don’t apologize,” he says gently, “How could this be your fault? Did the disciples not come by this morning?”

Wei Wuxian stares down at where their hands are joined. The red flush on his cheeks now all the way up to his ears.

“It… it’s wasteful to heat up the entire Jiangshi just for me,” Wei Wuxian says. He turns his head up to look at Wangji, and gives him another bright smile. “Besides, the cold doesn’t bother me much. I’m sure you can call–“

Wangji bumps his head gently against Wei Wuxian’s forehead.

“Who told you it was wasteful?” he asks, his eyes closed in an attempt to control his anger. His anger isn’t meant for Wei Wuxian. He has to be careful not to let it show.

Wei Wuxian is quiet.

Wangji won’t force an answer out of him. He already has a hunch of who might’ve planted this poisonous thought inside of Wei Wuxian anyway.

He holds back a sigh and rises to stand, Wei Wuxian’s hand still firmly in his. “Come,” he says, “Let’s get you to our bed. Why is this cot back in our room? I thought I had gotten rid of it.”

Wei Wuxian gently pulls his hand away from Wangji’s grasp.

“I had it brought back in,” Wei Wuxian says, his eyes on the ground. He’s a poor liar, Wangji’s learned, and he feels a fool for realizing that so late. “What Grandmaster Lan said is correct. I did spend a lot of time in the Burial Mounds and I use demonic cultivation… it could negatively affect you, Wangji. I mean… I don’t think it will, but just to be safe, I think it’s better we use separate—“

Wangji slides his arm under Wei Wuxian’s legs and across his back and lifts Wei Wuxian off his cot.

“Hanguang-jun!” Wei Wuxian exclaims, “What are you doing!?”

“You’re my husband,” Wangji says, “I will not have you sleeping on a cot.”

He sits Wei Wuxian gently against the headboard and brings up the blanket to tuck it around Wei Wuxian’s waist. He walks to the closet to bring out his fur-lined robe and he drapes it across Wei Wuxian’s shoulders.

All the while, Wei Wuxian blinks up at him, as if he doesn’t quite recognize Wangji.

“But…” Wei Wuxian says, “But your uncle…”

It’s a sharp stab of guilt in his gut, the reminder that up until recently, Wangji had blindly followed his uncle’s orders. Believing his uncle’s guidance to be the best course of action for both him and Wei Wuxian.

Never in a million years had he imagined that his uncle could be so… wrong. But Wangji’s limited imagination almost cost him his husband – Wangji wouldn’t make that mistake again.

“My uncle is… wrong,” Wangji says, and the words feel foreign in his mouth. But he has to say them. He must. Wei Wuxian cannot be allowed to believe that Wangji shares his uncle’s opinions – not about his marriage, not about his circumstances, not about Wei Wuxian. He sits next to Wei Wuxian and takes his thin, trembling hand again. “From now on, you must remember this – you are my husband. You are someone I wished to marry.”

“—Yes, I know,” Wei Wuxian interrupts, “You married me because you wished to save the Wens, because you knew what was happening to them was unjust—“

“—No,” Wangji says sharply. “I married you because I wanted to.”

Silence falls between them.

“You are Hanguang-jun,” Wei Wuxian says after a long while, his voice so soft that it only just presses up against the silence.

Wangji hates this.

Hates this quiet, fragile thing Wei Wuxian has become.

And it’s his fault.

It’s all is fault.

And the knowledge that Wei Wuxian willingly let himself be broken down because he thought this was what Wangji wanted burns a hole in Wangji’s chest.

He pulls Wei Wuxian’s fingers to his lips. Presses a soft kiss against his knuckles.

“Husband,” he murmurs against pale fingers. He looks at Wei Wuxian expectantly.

Wei Wuxian keeps his gaze for a moment before tilting his head in question. “…Yes?” he asks.

“Husband,” Wangji says again. “Before I am Hanguang-jun, I am your husband, just as you are mine.”

Wei Wuxian drops his gaze to his lap, where his free hand is anxiously picking at the skin around his nails. They’re chapped and close to bleeding. “But I am the Yiling Patriarch,” Wei Wuxian says softly, his steady voice a stark contrast to his nervous fingers. “Being married to me only brings you pain and dishonor.”

If Wangji could, he would cut his heart out. He would cut his heart out and show Wei Wuxian exactly how much Wangji’s heart bled for him and only him. Show him how the inside of his chest has grown cavernous since meeting Wei Wuxian, constantly growing and rearranging itself to make room to house all the love Wangji has accumulated for this man.

There’s nothing he couldn’t do, if only Wei Wuxian would believe him.

He grabs Wei Wuxian’s free hand in his and pulls so that Wei Wuxian falls forward just a bit – just close enough so that Wangji can press a kiss against his brow.

“I am your husband, just as you are mine,” Wangji repeats softly. There are a million other things he wants to say, but anything he could say in that moment would only bring him to tears or potentially hurt Wei Wuxian, and he wants to do neither.

He presses another kiss against the side of Wei Wuxian’s face before he rises off the bed.

Wei Wuxian stares up at him a little dazedly, a bewildered expression on his face. It was an expression Wangji had seen often as of late. Like Wei Wuxian almost didn’t recognize the man standing in front of him. Like he might be a stranger.

And Wangji understands, even if the expression makes him feel a little embarrassed.

He knows that his attitude and actions towards his husband have changed dramatically in the past couple of weeks. And he’d be lying if he said that this newfound… forwardness of his came naturally to him. But he couldn’t stand one more day of Wei Wuxian believing that Wangji just… endured him. He couldn’t stand one more moment of Wei Wuxian thinking that Wangji didn’t want to be married to him. That Wangji didn’t… love him.

He turns in abrupt embarrassment, suddenly feeling shy about how much he feels for Wei Wuxian. He goes over to the door to pick up the basket he had brought with him.

It steadies him, the basket, and the knowledge of how much love this basket contains. How could he feel shy about his feelings when they couldn’t even compare to simple bowl of soup?

“What is this?” Wei Wuxian asks when Wangji brings the basket over to the bed.

Wangji doesn’t answer. He just places a small tray on Wei Wuxian’s lap.

“Oh, do you have a task for me?” Wei Wuxian asks, “A letter to write? A talisman to make? Let me get off the bed—“

Wangji gently presses down on the tray on Wei Wuxian’s lap to stop him. He taps once on the tray as a sign for Wei Wuxian to stay still, and miraculously, Wei Wuxian nods back in understanding.

It’s almost unfair how easily they understand each other in the little ways, but it gives Wangji faith that someday they’ll also be able to understand each other in the big ways.

The soup is still hot when Wangji opens the lid, curls of steam flying upward into the Jingshi. The aroma falls not far behind. The heavy, savory, warm smell of rich broth and tender meat.

In the moment, he finds he can’t seem to muster up the bravery to look at Wei Wuxian’s face.

He carefully ladles the soup into a bowl, making sure to get plenty of meat and vegetables. Under the guise of carefully placing the soup on the tray, he keeps his gaze down, away from Wei Wuxian’s face.

He’s not quite sure what he’s afraid of.

But this is how it always is with Wei Wuxian. He makes Wangji feel big and small in unimaginable ways. Makes a coward out of him with just a glance and in turns gives him enough strength to stand up to even his own uncle.

Wangji puts the lid back on the soup bowl and stands.

“Eat,” he says, “I’ll go start the fire.”

He turns to leave but the faintest tug at his sleeve stops him in his tracks.

“…Husband,” Wei Wuxian says, his voice small, “Would it be okay if we ate… together?”

Wangji clenches his fists so tightly that they tremble. His eyes burn with unshed tears and his throat aches.

In turns he hates himself – because how quickly could he forget that his husband hates to eat alone? – and in the same moment he’s overcome with gratitude towards his husband.

His husband.

His brave, Wei Wuxian.

So much better and braver than Wangji.

He feels Wei Wuxian’s fingers slip down off his sleeve, obviously taking Wangji’s silence for refusal. Wangji grabs them, before they fall too far and holds them tight.

“Of course,” he says.

He quickly ladles himself a bowl and sits down on the bed, finally – finally – mustering up the courage to gaze upon Wei Wuxian’s face.

What he finds there makes him wonder what he was so frightened of.

Wei Wuxian’s cheeks are tinged with pink. His eyes are bright and happy and there’s a genuine, if not a bit embarrassed, smile on his face that makes Wangji’s chest feel tight.

They begin to eat in silence, and it is Wangji who breaks it first.

“I learned how to make this soup today,” he says stiltedly. “Whenever you want it, tell me. If there are other things you like, tell me as well… I… would like to learn.”

Wei Wuxian is quiet for a long moment, and in every silent second, Wangji feels the pulling tide of embarrassment.

Just as he’s about to be pulled under, Wei Wuxian grabs his hand.

“Thank you,” Wei Wuxian breathes, smiling a smile so big that it threatens to split his face in two. “Lan Zhan, you are my greatest blessing. Thank you.”

The Jingshi is cold.

Wei Wuxian is thin.

Wangji is inadequate.

But in that moment, Wangji burns as hot as the summer sun.

can we not talk about yoonmin on here as a ship romantic or not? like this is mainly a jikook space not to gush about yoonmin.

Hi, I'm so sorry. You MUST be new here because anyone whose been around longer than a few months would know better. Lol but let me help clear up any misconceptions you (or anyone else who is new here) might have.

This isn't just mainly a jikook space (it IS but its not just that), this is full stop 100% MY blog. Which means I get to talk about whatever I want whenever I want here. Period. No exceptions. I just recently created a secondary blog to do my other fandom reblogs and posts that WILL still sometimes get cross-posted here (my kaladin playlist being one of them just yesterday) but I did that to organize my posts over there too and yet still have a masterlist subsection for them here too. I don't do that for BTS though. Anything BTS related I feel like talking about or reblogging WILL be done here. So if I want to spent the entire day talking about yoonmin or even if I want to spent an entire day talking about nothing but wangxian/mdzs here. I'm going to. I could just spent the next hour gushing about all the sweet taekookness that dropped recently for us. And that's fully up to me and no one else

(CUTEEEE 🥺🥺🥺)

And the ONLY thing my dearest anon you get to do about it, the only thing you have agency over here, is if you choose to be here/participate in said posts. You can choose if you want to talk about it with me. You can choose if you want to follow me or unfollow me. That's it. You cannot dictate to me what/who I post about. I don't get to dictate to you about if you have to follow me. I don't want to. I lowkey love that my side blog is still so small. Lol that's what I THOUGHT this blog was going to be, blogging into the void and no one being the wiser or caring about my opinions. That's still how I treat this space though. It's never been about the numbers for me. So I hope you enjoy your time here with me if you decide to stay. Otherwise there are TONS of jikook blogs that are fully about nothing but jikook, you might be happier following some of them instead. 🥰 Have a good day!

I’M IN SCIENCE CLASS RN BUT I GOT AN IDEA FOR AN MXTX CROSSOVER

So I read in a meta post that it was mentioned in canon SVSSS that Airplane bro has written other stallion novels and that PIDW is just his most successful.

What if prior to writing all these stallion novels, he wrote MDZS and TGCF. It was smth he genuinely enjoyed doing but it didn’t really earn him cash bc it didn’t do well (IMPOSSIBLE I KNOW) so he kinda forgot about them. Both stories were finished though.

Bruh what if Wei Ying and Lan Zhan end up in SVSSS bc WY was messing with some talismans and ended up transporting them there. Meanwhile Xie Lian and Hua Cheng end up in SVSSS because of a mishap in Heaven.

I can already imagine Qinghua shaking when he sees these four and getting slightly emotional because they were created when he was still hopeful and somewhat naive regarding how he would get his income.

Shen Yuan is internally fanboying because as a dedicated fan critic, he also read MDZS and TGCF and greatly enjoyed it. Like yes my man is oblivious as fuck regarding romance as a whole, but he could care less about the main pairing being gay. He was only reading them for the lore.

WY and LZ are lowkey panicked but I can see WY somehow getting along well with SY because they end up bonding over being constantly wrecked by their husbands.

XL and HC are confused and kinda wary but they warm up to Bingqiu and Wangxian after a bit. Binghe prolly tries to give XL some cooking advice with HC lowkey breathing down his neck because if Binghe ends up unintentionally insulting XL then they’re definitely gunna have a problem.

Ngl I can kinda see Hua Cheng and Lan Zhan kinda doing their own thing in comfortable silence because if their mutual understanding of each other in terms of devotion. Binghe joins them from time to time when all three of their husbands hang out by themselves. Like I can imagine Lan Zhan composing a new song, Hua Cheng making a mini statue, and Binghe making everyone a meal.

Meanwhile Shen Yuan and Wei Ying end up convincing Xie Lian to do all sorts of ridiculous shit with them. If you guys are questioning why Shen Yuan would agree to any of this my answer is simple, this man may be a lofty immortal but he’s still a shut-in from the 21st century. He has a lot of semi-pent up crackhead energy.

Xie Lian is confused but he’s enjoying himself so he doesn’t question it and is just enjoying having some new friends. Wei Ying just wants to encourage the chaos.

WAIT FUCK WHAT IF WEI YING MEETS QINGHUA-

Lan Zhan and Mobei-jun are going to be drinking vinegar because if their husbands end up having a conversation then everyone is screwed.

Wei Ying is a genius, but Qinghua deadass created the mechanics of MDZS, TGCF, and PIDW. My man has a shit ton of knowledge and he’s gunna use it. Pretty sure Qinghua and Wei Ying end up doing most of the with figuring out how to send everyone back to their of worlds.

Fascinated by and admiring your vowel-free tagging system

LOL are you referring to my inscrutable mdzs tags? lowkey proud of it but i've been wondering if people are gonna think i'm keysmashing or something

i separate the mdzs posts into 3-4 'spheres' so i can find stuff without having to tag at the granularity of individual characters

so i have

ylcr = yiling cloud recesses = wangxian, wen siblings, sizhui, jingyi

ymll = yunmeng lanling = jiangs other than wwx, jins other than jgy (soo mostly jc jyl jzx jin ling)

3zh = 3zun huaisang

yc = yi city

!trivia! ylcr and ymll were originally both tagged ylym (yiling yunmeng) but then i realized i had nowhere to organize posts about poor lan wangji. among a few other stragglers. so i overhauled it again

is it Deeply Cringe to put this much thought into all that... maybe! however it gives me joy to organize all my little posts like books on a shelf

[lansplaining]

Just heard this song on my release radar called day & night by soulbysel and the chorus/bridge is so cute and I ever so briefly imagined mutual pining roommates lwj and wwx cleaning their dorm with wwx blasting his jams and and dancing and fake singing “can’t take it any longer baby can’t you be my lover I want you so bad for real” to lwj to rile him up (and say what he lowkey wants to say) and lwj is STRESSED anyways I didn’t have anywhere else to release this thought you don’t even have to post it lol but pls enjoy and give it a listen if you so desire it slaps!!

i am literally so touched by this ask, ty friend <3

the song IS a bop

wwx could inflict SO much torment with targeting lip-synching, i feel this is an under-excavated area of the field of wangxian studies

[imsorrywhatsalifeagain]

Woah I actually post some thing for once?? Thank you @you-can-be-what-you-want-to-be for tagging me ;0;; so honored :3 (also bear with me I'm tired from a con so I'm probably misinterpreting the questions but who cares, that tell you more about me I guess)

Tag game

Tag game: tag 9 people you’d like to get to know better.

Last song: I think it was L's theme B uhhh it was for a panel I swear

Currently watching: I don't even remember I've been on a death note binge, I think it was sailor moon?

Three ships: okay ngl I don't really know what this question is asking me so I'm just going to list out the current 3 I like (which I think is the question to begin with??) YooHanKim, Lawlight, and Wangxian (also shiguang and Taibani they all mean a lot to me I can't choose ;0;;

Favorite color: I like orange, blue and green a lot, but generally any color that is in a sunset/pastel is my favorite,, just not too much of it. The color is easy on my eyes but I'll go crazy if everything was pastel

Currently consuming: xXXL beef and cheese stick except I'm only eating the beef part because I don't like cheese. Scavenging for a protein to eat with my sticky rice though. (not the beef stick, that is wrong)

First ship: I don't know if this is asking about first ever ship or your favorite (Probably the former). My first ever ship in a fandom was Rinharu from Free! (I shipped lawlight without watching the anime until like 2 years ago) my favorite ship rn is YHK

Relationship status: I'm gay aro ace and poly with 3 partners. Which is very hard to explain to people because I'm queerplatonic with all my partners and my labels probably contradict each other. Do I care? No, I don't. But they're all very nice and we all lowkey act the same so *shrugs* :3

Last Movie: I think it was Death note: light up the NEW world. I didn't finish it but it was for research purposes I swear, or else I would have watched something else 😭

Currently working on: it was a death note panel but NOW I'm working on preparing to go to class tomorrow (I'm not doing anything)

Tagging

I don't think I actually have many mutuals I talk to tbh so uhh just

@squishmallowo @imnoturcatgirlwaifu @foxboy-light-yagami @smol-grey-tea and @luicremdo you don't have to do it if you don't want to >_<

One day I'll be less antisocial with new people but that day hasn't come yet so.... ;0;;

Hey folks, I’m really in the mood for post canon Wei Wuxian in Mo Xuanyu’s body turning into his old body or Wei Wuxian finding his old body (or something similar).

I’ve read my fair share (going to re-read Saw My Life in a Stranger's Face & Recompense for the Martyr), but I really want to binge fics like this rn and I can’t remember/find them. Feel free to recommend in the comments or send an ask!

[correct-wangxian]

Lan Zhan: Wei Ying go back to bed, you’re clearly sick

Wei Ying, barely able to see straight, swaying on his feet: yeah

Wei Ying: lovesick

Lan Zhan:

Lan Zhan: just go lay down

please that wuji dubstep remix haunts me everyday what even—

[seethefakemuses]

I honestly feel like a huge majority of wangxian stans, especially the ones that are jc antis, don't actually like wwx all that much either. I've never gone out of my way to read a wangxian or anti jc fic, but sometimes they just get shoved in my face when I'm looking for other stuff to read (the time travel tag is a cesspool), and just by the synopses of those fics on ao3 (and by the wangxian/anti jc posts that i unwillingly see on tumblr) you can tell that their wwx...isn't actually wwx. It's a wwx who has never had any agency in his life, has never hurt anyone ever (on purpose or accidentally), and is always the victim in any and every scenario. Like I'm sorry, but the canon wei wuxian has one of the highest kill counts in the entire novel, and most of those kills happened within a few hours. Canon wwx was also, like, the Torture King, he saw torture as an art form, and tried to be as creative with it as possible 🤣🤣🤣. There are soo many other questionable things that wwx did, and wangxian fics seem to NEVER mention them, and instead they make everything someone elses (usually jc's) fault. It's like wangxian fics are written by lan wangji; someone who has probably never even fully accepted/acknowledged that wwx is lowkey a murderer, and instead feels like, in order for them to like wwx, he has to be pure (i could write a mini essay about this). And like...that's soo boring. Wangxian/Lan Wangji and wangxian shippers make Wei Wuxian boring. The only fics I've ever seen an authentic Wei Wuxian in is Chengxian, to be completely honest, and those fics are always soo compelling and interesting, because they don't shy away from the darker parts of Wei Wuxian's character (a huge part of his appeal), and aren't written from a 'woke' or righteous pov like soo many wangxian fics seem to be written from. And tbh, I'd take 'murder husbands' chengxian over whatever wangxian has going on any day🤷🏾‍♀️

nonny your brain…. you’re so right. and they project so much, constantly saying ‘oh jc stans don’t like the REAL jc’ but they’re the ones who don’t like the real wwx. please feel free to write that mini essay i’d actually read it lol. i find the characterization of wwx to be pretty accurate in the chengxian fics i’ve read as well, and though i haven’t read any wangxian fics i’ll trust you when you say they purify wwx considering they do the same in the wwx posts i’ve seen.

[shangqinghua]

okay SO i want to work on my mxtx fics that have been sitting in my gdocs and uhhhh i would like to know. which of the following fics y’all would like to see first?

• airplane as ming fan (pre-abyss, lowkey airplane/binghe but also not really, airplane and shen yuan being weird friends, airplane wanting to live and keep binghe safe vs airplane wanting to avoid being a part of the plot)

• shang qinghua and liu qingge go to a festival together and have a weird time (post-canon, mutual pining, liu qingge as being embarrassed about existing 24/7, mbj as sqh’s weird and deranged wingman, sqh as the only cultivator any demon will talk to normally)

• jiang cheng, nie huaisang, wei wuxian and lan wangji go on a road trip together by accident and jc and nhs are subjected to wangxian so much they become famous food critics (this one is very stupid, replacing the road-trip they went on in canon to do yin iron stuff, no sunshot campaign/wen ruohan being evil, wangxian teen summer fling, sangcheng besties 4 lyfe, sangcheng are so fed up with wangxian existing near them that they start going to every food establishment they can and ranking them)

• fengqing bbc merlin au (feng xin as prince arthur and my qing as merlin, that’s all i have to say about this one)

[pakhnokh]

Last night I dreamt about you! In my dream, I opened Tumblr and came across a new wangxian fanart you had made. Stunning as always. Anyway, when I woke up, I frantically searched for the fanart and was lowkey sad it was just a dream.

Ahhhhh omg that's so sweet!!!!! You know what, I have a new piece I wasn't sure I'll be able to finish today but I'll try to do it anyway and post it to make your dream come true hahahaha Thank you so much <3
