    Summary

    When Lan Wangji volunteers to take part in a new scientifc trial, a sign of his familys faith in the recent partnership with Jiang Solutions, the last thing he expects is to be paired with his old classmate Wei Wuxian. Lan Wangji can't help but hope he'll finally be able to overcome his own stoney alpha exterior, and form some sort of connection with Wei Wuxian. Only to have the hope shattered when Wei Wuxian tells him they're obviously a placebo group. While the drug is desgined to help form pack bonds without the antiquated mating bite or a blood relation, they're too valued as family members to risk if something goes wrong. Without it, Lan Wangji fears his attempts will be as doomed as when they were younger.

    With a little encouragement from his brother, Lan Wangji decides to use their weekly hour meeting to try to connect with Wei Wuxian. But the more they meet, the more something seems off. Wei Wuxian seems to be far from the carefree boy Lan Wangji knew, instead almost coming off a skittish. As bruises and realizations grow, these two have a long way to go before they can find a happy ending.

    Summary

    He is not born in the sense that people understand - he simply becomes, between one ripple of starlight and the next. Like he's appeared out of nothingness and onto a bustling street filled with people going about their evenings. No one looks at him as they pass by, talking and laughing and calling back and forth to vendors that line the streets. The air is heavy with the scent of humanity, fried food, life.

    (Or: MDZS, but their swords have actual spiritual forms.)

    Summary

    The tales reach Gusu in whispers, and though gossip is forbidden, even the elders find themselves growing uneasy at the murmuring that inevitably creeps along the halls and paths of the Cloud Recesses like vines of tangled weeds.

    They say there's a creature that protects Yiling.

    Locals claim it came from the Burial Mounds!

    It's a spirit; a giant fox! They call it Húlí!

    How very on the nose. Even he has heard the murmurs from within the Jingshi, and so Lan Wangji is expecting the summons well before it reaches him, his qiankun pouch already packed and Bichen humming steadily at his hip. Her presence is a warm and long-familiar weight that sways with his steps as he makes his way to the Hanshi, where Brother is no doubt awaiting his arrival.
