    Summary


    “Wei Ying?” Nie Mingjue prompted him gently. “Where are your parents?”

    “They went on a night hunt,” Wei Ying said, a bit evasively.

    “Your parents are cultivators?” Da-ge asked in surprise. “Did they leave you here while they hunted? When did they go on their night hunt?”

    “Four summers ago,” Wei Ying said a bit uncomfortable.

    “Four summers ago,” Nie Mingjue repeated. “What are your parents’ names?”

    “My mama is Cangse Sanren and my baba is Wei Changze,” Wei Ying told him, and recognition registered in Nie Mingjue’s eyes.

    “Wei Ying,” Nie Mingjue said, sounding a bit regretful, “Your parents aren’t coming back.”


    Or, Nie Mingjue and Nie Huaisang run into Wei Ying while in Yiling and decide to bring him home. And it changes everything.

    Summary

    Before Wei Wuxian can say he will join Jiang Cheng and attend the Wen indoctrination, a letter describing the burning of the Cloud Recesses reaches Lotus Pier.

    Realizing the danger to the Jiang sect, he decides to stay behind to help with the defenses and keep his sect safe. While he agonizes over the fate of the disciples sent as little more than hostages, he upgrades the wards of the Jiang sect to stand against the inevitable Wen army.

    Lotus Pier will survive, and Wei Wuxian changes his own fate and the fate of the Sunshot Campaign.

    Summary

    “I’ve visited the spirit several times and can confirm she’s not dangerous at all,” Wei Wuxian explained. “She just really likes poetry, but she doesn’t hurt people, no matter how much they bother her.”

    Lan Wangji had a suspicious feeling. “Are there people bothering her?”

    “Nah, she lives a peaceful little life in that garden.”

    “Then how,” Lan Wangji asked flatly, “do you know that bothering her does not incite a more hazardous reaction?”

    Wei Wuxian grinned. “Why ask questions you know the answer to?”

    *

    Six months after Wei Wuxian was kicked out of the Cloud Recesses, Lan Wangji finds the boy bothering a spirit, the Damsel of Annual Blossoms, who rewards good poetry with a flower. As Lan Wangji grapples with his confusing feelings, he ends up pulled into Wei Wuxian’s orbit. Unwelcome realizations of affection follow.

    Summary

    Chants of victory grow across the battlefield, and Lan Zhan takes a moment to examine the energy as it fades with its master. It should feel oppressive, cold, and unforgiving, it's anything but. The way it nudges at Lan Zhan’s cheek almost curiously or flicks his palm in the same way his rabbits lick him when he brings them dinner.

    It’s playful, cheeky, and reminds him of Wei Ying.

    Or: The resentful energy sees its master pining after Hanguang-Jun and vice versa, and decides to get involved!

    Summary

    During his “night hunt” in Yiling, Lan Wangji is struck by a curse that transforms him into a wolf. He approaches Wei Wuxian for help. This is how he learns three things:

    1) Wei Wuxian is afraid of dogs and dog-adjacent creatures.
    2) Wei Wuxian will do literally anything for a friend in need.
    3) Wei Wuxian considers Lan Wangji to be... possibly more than a friend?!?

    Summary

    It was an extreme, a desperate decision fueled by anger towards the entire cultivation world, a grief deeper than the deepest trenches in the ocean. The realization that Lan Wangji would now have to continue on living a second time without his beloved, where Wei Wuxian had died once again. Where, once more, his love had been taken from him by cruel, unrighteous men who thought they knew better, that they were doing the world a justice.

    Lan Qiren had seen the state that his nephew had been in after Wei Wuxian’s first death, what Lan Wangji had done in his grief then, and he feared what Lan Wangji would do to himself if he was left alone with this repeated grief.

    Summary

    Instead, the place was occupied by a slightly moss-covered but still the most beautiful jade statue the cultivator (Wei Wuxian) had ever seen. The jade had been masterfully chiseled into a beautiful ethereal man, sitting with perfect posture, his back straight, his head slightly bowed. The finely detailed strands of his hair flowed softly in a breeze, his eyes partially closed. The robes were detailed, his hands hovering over a guqin made out of black jade, fingertips in the middle of plucking the strings. Whoever made the statue had a good eye for details, the forehead ribbon caught in a soft breeze, tangling with the hair, the sleeves billowing softly with the caught air of the breeze the artist had imagined. It looked like the man had gone about his day and was captured in the precious stone.

    Edit: This was whole thing was inspired by this beautiful art piece made by @lotuslate over on Tumblr. Please check it out and leave some love

    In this meta, I want to show that Lan Wangji suffers from a very high rejection sensitivity due to his autistic personality, and that early losses have exacerbated this condition.

    Nobody knows the names of Lan Wangji's bunnies, right? It is a precious secret shared between the name-giving lord, his brother and Mo Xiang Tong Xiu alone. Right! But... maybe we can guess a little bit, searching for evidence and solve the puzzle along our way... Let's try!

    So this is a meta, which will look deeper in Lan Wangji's autistic mind, his relationship with Wei Wuxian and his most beloved bunnies. This can be read as stand-alone. Enjoy!

    Summary

    Lan Wangji is known for being a man of few words.  The reason for this could be that he is written as a neurodivergently coded character. Like many autistic people, Lan Wangji has difficulty translating his overwhelming feelings into words (love, hate, anger). Processing stimuli and emotions often takes significantly longer for autistic people than for neurotypical people. They therefore have limited linguistic articulation skills.

    Summary

    Hello everyone,
    this is a character study of Wei Wuxian's about the emotional and physical abuse Wei Wuxian experienced as a child in Lotur Pier and how it significantly influenced his character. I have used both the novels and the series as sources because I think Wei Wuxian's backstory in both differs relatively little. This can be read as a stand-alone.

    Summary

    I think, that Lan Wangji is trained by his clan not to show any pain and to go beyond the limits of physical and mental resilience. But there might be another reason, why he acts like that. Lan Wangji has obviously learned from an early age on that he can't expect help when he's in bad shape.

    Can be read as Stand-alone

    Including a discussion about the role of pain during their sexy times.

    Summary

    This is a meta analysis dealing with Lan Wangji's choice in hobbies. I put forward the thesis that Wei Wuxian is Lan Wangji's gateway to the world. A world to which he had no other access due to his secluded, sheltered youth in Cloud Recess. In addition, Lan Wangji is characterized as an autistic teenager with a single strong special interest, namely music (an obsessive character and pronounced special interests are part of the character profile of Asperger's autism, for example). Only the guest lectures and Wei Wuxian open up new paths for him. As we will see, many of his interests have to do with Wei Wuxian.

    Summary

    The manor stands like a rotted tooth from the gums of the earth. Dilapidated roofs jut jagged tiles into the air, the outer walls of the estate eroding under the encroaching lichen and ivy. The oversweet smell of rot and something metallic clings to Wei Ying’s back palate. The air is heavy, like dirt pressing on lungs.

    On the bright side of things, Wei Ying muses, he doesn’t need to breathe. Perks of being dead.

    ---

    Canon-verse. Wei Ying manages to clear the Dafan Wens name and bring them to safety with the support of the Lan, Nie, and Jiang prior to his death at the hands of resentful energy. Over the course of 13 years, Wei Ying manages to cultivate himself into an existence more alive than dead. Lead on a never-ending chase by a soul-deep yearning, Wei Ying travels and night hunts throughout the Jianghu until one eventful night hunt brings his past crashing into his present and showing him what it means to truly be alive.

    Summary

    A canon-era fix-it in two parts.
    When a fifteen-year-old Wei Wuxian accidentally activates an array he shouldn’t have touched, he catches a glimpse of the future — and the man he’ll come to love beyond reason. Now back in his own time, burdened with knowledge he was never meant to carry, he must decide what to share, what to change, and how to live a life that no longer feels like his own.
    A story about time, love, and what endures.
