    Summary

    Wei Wuxian pressed his face into his pillow and screamed. He paused to take a few deep breaths, partially hindered by the pillow, and listened to the sounds of Nie Huaisang slurping his iced coffee, from his seat on Wei Wuxian's desk chair.

    Having caught his breath, he resumed his screaming and did not stop at the sound of his dorm room door opening.

    "What's wrong with him?" He heard his brother, Jiang Cheng, ask.

    The slurping stopped. "He's an idiot."

    "He's always been an idiot. Why is he bothered about it now?"

    "He forced Lan Wangji to go on a date," Nie Huaisang replied, shaking the ice cubes in his drink.

    "Okay and…?"

    "With someone else." The slurping resumed.


    Wei Wuxian, in all his glorious dumbassery, convinces his boyfriend to go on a date with someone else.

    Summary

    "I’m Wei Ying, nice to meet you.”

    Lan Zhan stares at the hand being offered, brain still trying to process the hurricane of a person in front of him.

    “Lan Zhan,” he replies, and shakes the hand once, politely. “Is this your seat?”

    or, sometimes a chance meeting on a train and twenty four hours together are enough for two people to fall in love.

    Summary

    “I can’t entertain you right now, er-gege. I’m waiting for a girl.”

    “A girl,” Lan Wangji intoned.

    “Yes.” Wei Wuxian was still checking their surroundings. The girl would be a bit late, if she didn’t show up soon. “I’m going on a date!”

    Jiang Yanli: It’s better! No one needs to die!

    Wei Wuxian: i’d rather die than pay more taxes

    Jiang Yanli: ???

    Summary

    Based on my meta and a WIP I shared years ago...

    An alternative Cloud Recesses arc where Wei Wuxian teases Lan Wangji beyond what he can ignore...

    Amongst the ancient books and scrolls that line the Cloud Recesses library, amid the soft glow of the paper lanterns, two people realise their true feelings for each other...

    OR

    My 'sliding doors' style fanfic where one kiss causes a ripple effect in the canon we know and love. One kiss could have changed so much for teen Wangxian...

    Includes easily skippable smut, with just the click of an asterisk 😉

     

    *This fic will continue in the coming months, once I have time 🙏🏻❤️
