    Summary

    A burst of talisman-shaped flame appears in the air before Lan Wangji’s eyes. Out of that flame and onto the table drops—a letter.

    “What is that?” shufu demands.

    Lan Wangji plucks the letter off the table. He recognizes Wei Ying’s scrawl: Lan Zhan, Cloud Recesses, followed by the name of a town several li away, as well as a cramped set of instructions on how to send a reply through the same flame-burst method.

    The happiness that shoots through him is so fierce that it almost frightens him.

    “Correspondence,” he says finally, tucking the letter into his sleeve, “for the Chief Cultivator.”

    In which Lan Wangji wants Wei Ying, and writes to Wei Ying, and waits for Wei Ying to come home.

    Really nice semi-epistolary exploration from LWJ’s POV of WWX’s absences and returns, both from death and from traveling.

    Summary

    One of the fragments of Wei Wuxian's soul, splintered during the first siege of the Burial Mounds, uses the energy released by the Yin Tiger Tally and flees backwards through time to another moment where Wei Wuxian was close to death – after the fall of Lotus Pier, at the hands of Jiang Wanyin.

    Knowing how his first life will end, Wei Wuxian decides to hide his survival, and leave the cultivation world behind.

    (UPDATED to add a bonus chapter from LQR's point of view as he learns that he will be gaining WWX as a nephew-in-law. And the Lan sect gets an accessibility revolution!)

    It’s a horrible way to accomplish it, but WWX finally acknowledges that he doesn’t owe the Jiangs and isn’t responsible for the sect’s troubles. My favorite part is when he acknowledges how angry he is, and doesn’t minimize it or make excuses for them.

    I’m not a JC hater, but I think his behavior here is very plausible based on canon.

    Summary

    In the end, it had been the Yiling Patriarch’s stratagems and his fierce fighting which had turned the tide of the war. He had killed both Wen Ruohan’s sons, and floored the traitor so that Meng Yao could strike the final blow. His status as the strongest warrior on the field had been undeniable.

    Thus, the offer extended to him by the Lan court. Take his place as the Emperor’s consort, the only one permitted to lay hands upon the Emperor, the only one to share his bed with him while he sleeps, unaware and vulnerable. His last, best line of defense.

    Or: Forced by his court to accept a consort, Lan Wangji is certain he has seen enough of the so-called Yiling Patriarch to know what he's getting: an uncouth ruffian. Slowly, he begins to realise that even an emperor's assumptions can be misplaced.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian didn’t imagine acquiring a cat like this, nor did he imagine acquiring a fluffy white cat that, even covered in dirt and debris and clutched to a four-year-old’s chest like a teddy bear, manages to give the impression it’s judged his entire life and found it deeply wanting.

    “Uh, A’Yuan,” he asks slowly, just in case this is a hallucination. “Who’s this?”

    “A cat,” A’Yuan says proudly, leaning his round cheek against the top of the cat’s head, while the cat continues to look at Wei Wuxian like he’s wearing week-old clothes covered in food stains.

    Or: Wei Wuxian gets a cat, and then a boyfriend, both of which are a surprise.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian whistled. "Wow, Captain, you’re probably glad you managed to deal with that before the new stuffed shirts from Starfleet arrived."

     Nie Mingjue heaved a sigh which practically shook the station. Whoever said the only emotion Klingons knew how to emote was anger clearly had never seen one of them irritated. Wei Wuxian had a lot of firsthand experience with it.

     Nie Mingjue straightened and turned to the Vulcans standing alongside Wei Wuxian. "Command Lan, Lieutenant Commander Lan. Welcome to Baxia Station."

     Oh.

     "Are you Lieutenant Commander Lan or Commander Lan?" Wei Wuxian asked the painfully beautiful and definitely annoyed Vulcan beside him.
     
    The question earned him a cutting glare. "Lieutenant Commander Lan Wangji."

    Well, that had to count for something, right?
     

    Lieutenant Commander Lan Wangji joins Baxia Station as Head Science Officer. Of all the things he anticipates upon accepting the commission, Wei Wuxian is not among them.
