one year with cql requests: mianmian thanking hanguang-jun and his soft smile for her

Mianmian, what should you say to Hanguang-Jun and Young Master Wei?

+ bonus: an extra lwj smile, this time for his husband’s shenenanigans

I'm not saying Lan Xichen's reactions to A-Yao being friends with Su She in CQL are the funniest fucking thing ever, but like, I'm not not saying that...

Stage One: Denial. Just avert your gaze. Nothing happening back there. Don't even worry about it.

Oops, you looked back! Don't look back Er-Ge!

His expression after JGY goes on telling him about how cool and talented Su She is. Like this is the fakest news he's heard all week. (I'd say this is the closest he gets to the anger stage lmao) Like, really A-Yao? You must not know Su She is actually super lame and inept and also a coward and he sucks but that's okay because I'll tell you those things and you won't be friends with him anymore right?

(Bargaining) And then it's just "Oh A-Yao it's okay! You didn't know Su She is bad actually!"

((I only wish we got to see LXC's reaction when he finds out that no, A-Yao has not dropped Su She as a friend and like... actually they're kinda close wtf? Like he obviously can't miss it by the post time skip time unless he's trying very hard to ignore it. Actually he might be trying very hard to ignore it or else why would he not know SMS is JGY's mysterious accomplice? Which while less likely is actually a lot funnier like just straight up "I pretend I do not see" ignoring it for 16 years.))

Catching up, catching up…

This began life as an exercise in perspective and also lighting, two things I’m working on improving atm. Done more or less entirely in watercolor, and I’m really pleased at how generally soft the atmosphere turned out.

Maybe a chengxian' meeting post-canon? Platonic or romantic, as you prefer

100 years later, I have given up and concussed Jiang Cheng in the name of love and yunmeng shuangjie reconciliation. You know, if it's not working, give it a smack!

-

This wasn’t precisely the way that he had imagined this reunion going, reflected Wei Wuxian. Jiang Cheng lay across his lap, blood smeared dark against his forehead, face illuminated by a streak of moonlight.

Not that he’d imagined seeing Jiang Cheng again. Well—not on purpose—sometimes it crossed his mind, when he saw Jin Ling out of the corner of his eye. Something about the posture was very like Jiang Cheng as a teenager, if a little more brash and impulsive. Jiang Cheng had always been more hesitant in public, aware of the eyes on him.

Anyway, it had occurred to him, mostly against his will, when he saw Jin Ling or he smelled the sword oil Jiang Cheng had favoured (still favoured?) or someone mentioned Lotus Pier. He’d flung it away each time for some future version of him to deal with. Now the future was here, and it sucked.

Wei Wuxian squinted at the ray of moonlight. At least they wouldn’t be suffocated. The section of the cave they were trapped in had at least one opening that went up to the outside world.

They had tracked a very strange yao back to the cave where it lived, him and Lan Zhan and the juniors, and crossed paths with a Jiang team led by Jiang Cheng himself following the same kind of yao. Unfortunately, it seemed that they lived in packs. The resulting fight had gone badly. An over-eager hit from Lan Jingyi had smashed one into the wall, and that had triggered a cave-in, and now Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian were alone in the dark together behind an enormous pile of rocks. On top of everything else, Jiang Cheng was unconscious, which Wei Wuxian really did not like.

The only thing he could think of to do was prop Jiang Cheng up in his lap and wait for him to come to. He didn’t know what Jiang Cheng would make of it when he woke up, but Wei Wuxian decided that he would cross that bridge when he came to it.

Jiang Cheng groaned and opened his eyes. “What happened?” he asked.

Wei Wuxian looked down at his face, and winced. Those pupils were not supposed to be different sizes.

“You took a hard hit to the head,” said Wei Wuxian, as cheerfully as he could. “Just stay still, will you? Rescue is on the way!”

He assumed, anyway. Lan Zhan wouldn’t just leave him here. He was very reliable like that.

“Rescue? Why the hell are we being rescued? What did we do this time?” complained Jiang Cheng. Something about his voice tugged at Wei Wuxian. It was less assertive that it usually was, tired, almost—whiny?

“You don’t remember?” said Wei Wuxian. This was bad. This was very bad. “There was a yao. Actually, there were quite a few yaos…”

Jiang Cheng let out a disapproving little huff. Distantly, Wei Wuxian noted that he had made no effort to get up from Wei Wuxian’s lap.

“If we’re late to dinner again, A-jie will be upset,” he mumbled.

Wei Wuxian froze. This was very bad indeed.

#nooooooooooo this makes me insane

I just finished the manhua, and now am watching the donghua and these two break my heart. Their brotherhood, their friendship, their family, their adventures together — all of it was lost. :'(

Nie Huaisang is such a character. He can faint on command. The character guide in the novel describes him as a dandy and lists his weapons as saber (ostensibly) and crying (actually). He stalked a canary for several days and then sneaked it into class. He collects porn and shares it with his friends. He's in a sword wizard society and his clan in particular is known for their blades but he never once has a fight scene. His characteristic accessory is a paper fan. He failed summer camp twice. He formed a Golden Core nearly a decade later than everyone else his age. When his brother was killed he set in motion a several years long revenge scheme that involved both careful planning and insane improv. He built a reputation on not knowing anything. He threw himself on his brother's killer weeping and saying "if you don't help me I'm killing myself in front or you." Truly who is doing it like him

[lanjiangs]

The most important thing to understand about Wei Wuxian is he is the kind of man who managed to invent not only necromancy, but also the concept of being a passenger princess in an ancient fantasy chinese setting where cars don't exist
