    Summary

    Wei Wuxian barely makes a sound when Jin Zixun’s sword goes through his chest. A tiny noise is punched out of him — half gasp, half sigh. Jin Zixun, wearing that smirk that Lan Wangji has always hated, moves to pull the sword out.

    This won’t do; Lan Wangji knows enough about battlefield medicine to understand the principle of keeping the weapon in the wound until a medic arrives. So he does the only thing that occurs to him in the moment, letting the momentum of flight be the force behind the swing; he cuts off Jin Zixun’s hand.

    -

    Lan Wangji goes with Wei Wuxian to his nephew's one-month celebration instead of Wen Ning. They still don't make it to the party.

    Summary

    "What is it?" Wei Wuxian leans across the dinner table, craning his neck to see the scroll the disciple had thought was important enough to deliver to the Jingshi at dinner time. "Is Sect Leader Yao feeling gassy again?"

    Sizhui has the grace to try to cover his grin at Wei Wuxian's antics, but not before Wei Wuxian catches enough of a glimpse of it to feel victorious.

    "It is from Song Lan." Lan Wangji's tone is carefully controlled, as always, but the words are enough to make Wei Wuxian snap to attention.

    After a night hunt gone wrong, Wei Wuxian learns to relate to his husband in ways he never anticipated.

    Summary

    There were a lot of nasty plot device things in the world of Proud Immortal Demon Way which on their own could be devastating and even deadly. When a single person was subjected to multiple of those it certainly made them feel like they wanted to die. Thus, having been subjected to at least three or possibly more of these at once, Shen Qingqiu isn’t that worried when Binghe barges into his room. There isn’t much he can do to make it worse after all and maybe, just maybe, he’s inclined to make it better?

    Summary

    Jingyi frowned. “So, what? You went into the Burial Mounds willingly?”

    Wei Wuxian smiled and it felt all wrong on his face. When he had accepted this mission, he hadn’t expected to hold a lesson about something that still left him gasping for breath in the middle of the night. “I was thrown from a sword by Wen Chao. I was—unwell at the time, so when I hit the ground—” He laughed. “Splat.”

    “Splat,” Jingyi echoed, eyes wide.

     

    (The juniors interrogate Wei Wuxian about the Burial Mounds—and quickly regret asking.)

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian gets the surprise of his life. The product of this kicks off a few things: namely, Jiang Yanli finally getting sick of her parents, Jiang Cheng Getting A Grip, and Lan Wangji fistfighting his uncle in a Denny's parking lot.

    That last one might have been exaggerated.
