    Summary

    So: waiting, in the evening, for the alert to appear, so that the herpetology records may be updated with the latest snakes, lizards, turtles, and frogs that Wei Ying has collected in the “Burial Mounds”. There is no location data associated with this name, no matter how many geolocation requests are submitted. (Nie Huaisang once claimed to know where the Burial Mounds are, but Nie Huaisang also claims that shadow boxes are a responsible method of arthropod preservation, so Lan Wangji has his doubts. The pinned butterflies are, however, very beautiful.)

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian's hands slam on either side of him, essentially caging him in. “Do you think your brother pays me out of the goodness of his heart? Just who do you think you are?"

    When the second Lan prince finds himself a hostage of the man most infamous for his contempt of aristocracy, he does not expect to be thrown into a world that is right in all the ways his own has always been wrong.

    or: the good ol’ cliche of enemies fated for each other

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian has outlasted seven handlers, a war, and the experiments that turned him into something less, and more, than human. Locked inside a nameless military facility, he’s treated as a weapon too dangerous to trust and too valuable to destroy.

    Lan Wangji is sent there to keep him stable. Instead, he sees the broken nine year old boy who once helped him fix a drone in a maintenance bay - and if there’s one thing Lan Wangji has always been good at, it’s fixing broken things.

    Summary

    In the season of haitang blossoming, Chu Wanning falls sick. It is the seventh time this year, a bit more than twice per month, and Taxian-jun is quite tired of it. Every other week, it seems, he’s taking care of a sick Chu Wanning: coaxing him to drink medicine, spooning porridge into his mouth, tucking in his blankets so he doesn’t kick them off. It’s annoying. It’s beneath his station. It’s fucking sickening.

    Or,
    Taxian-Jun orders a sick Chu Wanning to accompany him during court.

    Summary

    The thing is, Wei Wuxian could just leave.

    Deep down, he's sure Lan Wangji knows it. The Cloud Recesses aren't enough to keep the Yiling Patriarch bound, not unless he wants them to. They'd barely been able to contain him as a teenager. How could they have any chance of doing so now?

    It would be so easy. He would barely even have to try.

    Or, Lan Wangji imprisons Wei Wuxian after Nightless City.
