Lan Wangji and the Love(s) of his Life, by BuckyAboveEverything

Lan Zhan is forced to choose between the sweet, adorable Wei Ying and the insanely attractive Yiling Laozu. The problem (good thing) is - they're the same guy.

this night that doesn't want to end, by Misila

The last time Jiang Cheng saw his nephew, Jin Ling was surrounded by five cultivators from at least three different sects.

Now, Jiang Cheng doesn't even know where Jin Ling is.

what i couldn't do for you, by WisdomPearl

Jiang Cheng half-drunkenly orders for a bunch of demonic cultivators to come to the Lotus Pier for rehabilitation. He then realizes that his disciple took it seriously, and now it's spiraled into Jiang Cheng taking in even more.

Royal misunderstandings resolved, by h0peless_oblivion

When the elders of the royal Lan family suggested a marriage between their second prince, Lan Wangji, and the noble Jiang family's Wei Wuxian, Lan Xichen held out hope that his little brother's new husband and longtime crush would eventually return Wangji's feelings...

One morning, seven and a half months into Wei Wuxian's first pregnancy, he stumbles upon a scene which implies that it might just have happened already.

Branded, by cytheriafalas

Lan Xichen knows his brother isn't handling the loss of Wei Wuxian very well, but he hadn't expected to be woken in the middle of the night because Lan Wangji had broken into a store room.

Lan Xichen POV of the night Lan Wangji got drunk and found the Wen brands.

Somersaults, by salakavala

It's Lan Zhan's first time playing board games with them, so Wei Ying wants to make sure that his friend is all well and comfortable.

He might have missed the point a little.

In a dream I do not know I am dreaming, by MountainRain898

Wei Wuxian has been leaning on the railing outside the Jingshi long enough that his eyes have adjusted to the dark, even without the moon and stars. He can see the faint outline of the lotus flowers in full bloom below him. Lan Zhan planted them shortly after Wei Wuxian returned from his gallivanting abroad, in order to make him feel more at home. It worked. One of Wei Wuxian’s favourite places in Cloud Recesses is now the pond outside the Jingshi, where he can sit on the wooden deck and dangle his feet amongst the pink flowers. It’s even better when Lan Zhan joins him, so they can lean against each other and trade kisses as the day fades away. Wei Wuxian knows now that sometimes home isn’t a place, it’s a person.

Wei Wuxian spends the evening taking care of his tired husband.

Sweet is the taste the sorrow leaves in my mouth, by chubby_lwj_love

Lan Wangji has been punished and placed in seclusion. His brother brings him his favourite candy from when he was a child to remind him of sweeter times, in an attempt to comfort him. It helps, yet the results are unexpected.

idiot's guide to parenthood, by yellowginkgos

“I was a good father, right?”

“Well, I wouldn’t say good, but you were okay.”

“What?”

“I think A-Xian and A-Cheng would agree with me when I say that you made a better uncle than you did a father.”

Jiang Fengmian reels back in shock.

in which, jiang fengmian reads some parenting books and realizes that maybe he was a shit father

General:

Come Lay Your Head Down Beside Me, by Preludian_Staves

“Enough of that now.” Shufu surprises him by squeezing his shoulder gently to quickly distract his spiraling thoughts. “You have been plenty useful, a-Ying. Now you must rest and let us do the work with your condition as it is. Trust that your husband and your family will take care of you, boy. We are here and we will not let you go.”

River Eyes, by AgentFreeWill

“Are you a dragon?” Wei Yuan asks, and then sits down. Oh no, he thinks, Baba will be really sad if I’m eaten by a dragon. This thought proves too much for the day of A Lot and tears start again…”

My Heart's Desire, by phnelt

It’s fine. Lan Zhan is here with him. Lan Zhan is making a pocket for Wei Ying to stand inside so he can regain his composure. Lan Zhan is… reaching for the cup of wine that Jin Zixun is trying to hand to Wei Ying.

In what is a clear case of Wei Ying’s patented One Shot Swallow trademark infringement, Lan Zhan throws back the cup, barely coughing, and hands it back.

Puzzle, by Thetalkingcherry

Why did he do it? The answer was simple really. Jin GuangYao's mistake was that he expected revenge to come to him armed with swords, not with a fan and a shy and harmless face.

Afternoon in the waterfall, by the_heartofstars (sixth in a series)

A calm, lazy afternoon with Wangxian playing music by one of Gusu's waterfalls and Wei Wuxian's realizations about food and love.

the adults are talking, by agloeian

“How long have you lived on the streets?” Wangji asks.

Xue Yang shrugs. “All my life, I think. I don’t remember anything else.”

Wangji tosses him the next meat bun. Xue Yang catches it easily – and he grins at Lan Wangji, wide and cheeky. Then, unexpectedly, “Why’re you talking to me?” he asks.

Lan Wangji blinks. “Why should I not?”

Xue Yang rolls his eyes, as if the answer is obvious. “No one else does. I’m a street rat. They’d rather I be dead.”

There's more truth to Hanguang-jun's reputation for picking up strays than one would first believe - aka Lan Wangji takes Xue Yang in before Jin Guangyao can.

Through All of These Years, by ladylapislazuli

“It’s been a long time,” Jiang Yanli says. Her voice is tiny, barely more than a whisper. “Have you travelled far? Please, sit down.”

Hanguang-Jun does not. Instead, he bows his head, polite even in refusal. Perfectly courteous – and, as always, his face betrays nothing.

“I will not stay long,” Hanguang-Jun says. “I have come to discharge my duty.”

- - -

Jiang Yanli survives the battle at Nightless City, and finds an unexpected friend in Hanguang-Jun.
