What if LWJ recognized WWX simply because even in another body he still has this sort of creepy smile that he used to have in his previous body?

🌶️ for either more HoD/GoT or MDZS please.

I'll go with MDZS since I've done two Westeros ones already-

A key part of the social commentary in MDZS I think a lot of people downplay or miss is that when the book ends none of the underlying societal problems that lead to the conflict have been solved. On the one hand, I get it- you just kinda want Wangxian to retire to domestic bliss and not have to deal with anymore bullshit since they've been through enough.

But it's very much a huge part of what the book is trying to say that Our Heroes really don't have an answer to woes of their world, and don't have a reason to try and find one. Wei Wuxian attempting to do the right thing, to force or cajole or trick or will the world into being better is one of the things that lead to his death at the Burial Mounds, and he knows that effort to do the same in the future will likely have the same result. So the old withered men keep their power and their traditions and their choking social hierarchy and their capricious arbitrary judgements....and instead Wangxian find victory and joy in the little things. In small acts of compassion and kindness and justice- in one or two lives saved and cases solved, and the common folk helped.

Like, obviously the book doesn't have a downer ending or anything, this is a romance at the end of the day. But their is something toothy and sharp in the ending, in Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji just kind of...giving up on the idea that their world can be fixed and instead choosing to live with it as best they can, and the fandom tends to forget that to focus on post-canon fics full of domestic hijinks and family shenanigans.

Xiao Xingchen is an interesting character, but he’s not entirely unique in his disposition and subsequent downfall. The most obvious parallel is the one that Wei Wuxian makes between himself and Xiao Xingchen (“In that moment, Wei Wuxian saw himself in Xiao Xingchen…” pg. 156). However, Xiao Xingchen has a lot in common with Xie Lian, specifically his first ascension and fall. Everything that Xue Yang says to Xiao Xingchen in their final confrontation can be said of Xie Lian.

Xue Yang says, “if you don’t know how this works works, then don’t enter it” (153). This sums up the criticism Xie Lian largely received when interfering in the Xianle/Yong’an war. He didn’t understand that you can’t walk away from a war with no casualties, and he didn’t understand how to effectively govern a kingdom. Furthermore, the Holy Temple in which he trained was literally on a mountain, much like Xiao Xingchen’s origins.

Xue Yang says, “save the world! What a joke, you can’t even save yourself!” and “you’ve accomplished nothing! Failed utterly! You only have yourself to blame! You reap what you sow!” (156). This is fairly self-explanatory in the context of Xie Lian’s first fall from grace and the period of struggle directly after.

The fact that Xiao Xingchen parallels two of the MXTX protagonists is interesting. I very vaguely remember hearing that the Xiao Xingchen story was something MXTX had come up with in high school. Then, it makes sense that his character is as such, and might point to somewhat formulaic (not that it’s bad) writing on the part of MXTX.

Thought complete, goodbye.
