@ca-the-nerd your wish is my command!!! Okay so AU where A-Yuan has been adopted by music teacher Lan Zhan who is also composer Lan Wangji but doesn't really do much composing outside of a hobby anymore, because of the kid. ANYWAY, everyone has always asked A-Yuan who his mama is, and so obviously A-Yuan has asked Lan Zhan, and Lan Zhan (who has actually explained adoption as best he can to a four year old) is like "uhhhh...I'm working on it." So A-Yuan just assumes that Lan Zhan is tryna pick out the perfect the perfect mama for him, and also goes on the lookout for a possible mama! Completely unrelated to this situation, A-Yuan is in love with this show called "Evil Inc." that portrays actor Wei Wuxian as the Yiling Patriarch, a competent and would-be scary villain if he was not surrounded by silly henchmen that accidentally muck up his plans in their attempts to be helpful! (He loves them all anyway, ushering them along like how a mama cat looks after her kittens). The four year old toddler watches this show EVERY DAY, sees this guy being the nicest man to the ones who are stopping him from taking over the world, starts telling anyone who asks that the Yiling Patriarch is his mama. At first, everyone's like "awwh, is he now?" and laughs it off, but then he starts drawing pictures about it and everything and then the teachers are like "this is getting annoying", turn to Lan Zhan and are like (smug and RUDE because booo bad nursery) "we know you're an adoptive father all on your own but you have to teach your kid about lying." Lan Zhan of the Lan clan family with many rules against lying is so offended because his child does not lie, so he decides that he'll MAKE A-Yuan's desire a truth! Cut to Lan Zhan staring at Wei Wuxian's Instagram or whatever and being like "hmmm...am I about to do this?" and Nie Huaisang, who is there for moral support (and also to hide from his brother after spending so much money on a game), is like "yes you are." Lan Zhan messages Wei Wuxian being like "this is likely an unconventional message for someone of your calibre to receive, but I was wondering if you could pretend to be dating me because my son (picture attached below) is telling everyone that the Yiling Patriarch is his mother and everyone is accusing him of lying. He is not a liar, he just wishes to fit in." Meanwhile, Wei Ying, who scrolls through his Instagram messages sometimes for the shits and giggles, receives this message, sees the kid and is like "I would literally do anything for this precious kid." Cue him responding to Lan Zhan as if he isn't a famous actor and consequently coming up with a whole plan for Wei Ying to come down and hang out with them just to PROVE THE HATERS WRONG!!!! Also so Wei Ying can get a break from his hectic life. Just pretend to date for this kid's benefit, hang out in public together with A-Yuan, go to parent events together, start hanging out in private, fall in love- Waaaiiit.....that wasn't part of the PLAN!

TKOD short: Confession of a Fallen God

Idk when my motivation is gonna come back, but some... Life stuff, we'll call it, has been hitting me pretty hard mentally, so I likely won't be back to writing till next month sometime. In the meanwhile, have this lil short about one of the most toxic individuals I've ever written.

Oh, and Narinder's here too.

“So, what did you want to talk to me about, Narinder?”

The Lamb had a voice like mead, intoxicating and sweet.  Her smile was warm and inviting, her beautiful crimson eyes giving a soft gaze.  Her form, even covered by her rather modest everyday robes, was simply stunning.  Everything about her was so perfect, it was all Narinder could do to stop himself from staring, speechless.

“You… look quite lovely tonight.” Narinder said, trying hard to remember the script he had planned out for this moment.

“Hm.  Do you mean to imply I don't always?” The Lamb narrowed her eyes disapprovingly, but maintained her smile.

“Uh… well, no, I just… that is, I… what I mean to say is, um…” Narinder struggled to find the words.  Somehow, he hadn't accounted for this.

The Lamb playfully batted his shoulder.  “Oh, I'm just teasing!  I know what you meant.” The Lamb turned towards the setting sun, their silhouette bathed in the light of dusk.  Such a gorgeous sight…

“Right…” Narinder breathed a sigh of relief.  Things were still going according to plan.  Knowing her, he really should have seen that coming.  That playful nature is part of what drew him to her in the first place.

“Well?  You didn't ask to speak to me just to compliment my looks, did you?” The Lamb turned to Narinder, a look of expectation on her face.

Despite all his preparation, his nerves still threatened to get the better of him.  His legs were ready to sprint away at any given moment.  He felt far from ready for this.  But he had been putting it off long enough.  He would not wait a moment more.

“Lamb… it's been twenty years since I first came here.  I know things haven't been… Well, that is to say, the relationship between us has been rather tumultuous.”

“Considering how many times you've tried to take the Crown back - and kill me in the process - I'd say ‘tumultuous’ is certainly a way to put it.”

“Yes, well… it hasn't been easy for either of us, I think it's fair to say.  We've had it out for each other since you took the title of Death for yourself.  But at some point, I came to respect you.”

Narinder moved in closer.  The moment he had been preparing for was fast approaching.  “You wield the Red Crown like a true artisan.  You have learned in a mere two decades what took me centuries.  And, while you still have a ways to go before I can say in good faith that you have truly replaced me -”

The Lamb rolled her eyes.

“- I firmly believe you will reach those heights in short order.  It's almost as if you were meant to bear the Crown.”

“Well.  I do believe that's the nicest thing you've ever said to me.  What's brought this on?” The Lamb stepped closer.  This was it.  It was now or never.  Narinder took a deep breath.

“Lamb.  You once told me that this mortal life was meant to be a punishment.  And for a time, it was.  But, being forced to observe this world through the lens of mortality has shown me things I would never have seen as a god.  In spite of this so-called punishment, I have felt the warmth of companionship.  I have learned the sense of accomplishment that follows a hard day's work.  I have come to know the gratitude of one's fellows, and the joy that accompanies it.  I know not if this form can age, or even die, but I understand how those who know their time is limited can still find meaning in this world.”

Narinder gently grasped the Lamb's hand.  “Beyond even that, however… I have found that I cannot stop thinking about you.  My heart begins to beat fast whenever I see you.  The sound of your voice lifts my spirit.  You wield Death with such grace, I cannot help but be entranced whenever I get to watch you work.  I didn't want to admit it at first.  Falling for my usurper… felt like a new low, a new and terrible depth to sink to.  But we cannot deny how we feel.”

“Narinder…” the Lamb seemed almost surprised, but Narinder had a feeling she had been anticipating this.  The Lamb was quite good at finding out things she had no business knowing.  She had probably read his mind at some point, without ever giving it away.  It didn't matter, though.  Regardless of whether she already knew or not, nothing would change until he said the words aloud.

“Lamb, I… I love you.  I love you in a way I have loved none other I have known.  I would sacrifice a thousand souls in your name.  I would tear out the still beating hearts of every heretic in these lands if you asked me to.  When my final moments come, it shall be your name upon my lips, your visage in my fading thoughts.”

Narinder was trembling.  His heart was racing.  “I - I know your heart belongs to that fox, Aria.  You've brought her back from the dead once, and you would do so again.  I would not think to take her place.  But, if there is room in your life for another…”  Narinder lowered his head.  “...Forgive me.  It matters not.  I have prepared for the worst already.  But, as I said, I cannot deny how I feel.  Know that I will not think less of you, should you answer unfavorably.  I simply needed to tell you.  Whatever comes next…”  Narinder raised his head, locking eyes with the lamb.  “...I will still serve you faithfully.”

Narinder was met with a momentary silence.  The wind itself seemed to die down.  He said he had braced himself for the worst, but in truth, he was genuinely hoping the Lamb would reciprocate his affections.

Finally, the Lamb broke the silence.  “Oh, Nari…”  As she tightened her grasp on his hand, her smile began to twist into something more sinister.  “You never fail to amuse me.”

The sun was fading from the horizon.  Night would soon fall.  The pale glow of the moon was beginning to illuminate the sky.

“I told you this life would be a punishment.  And I meant it.”

“I…  I’m not sure I understand.”

“Of course you don’t.”

The Lamb pulled away, turning her back on Narinder.  “You think this was your choice?  I’ve known this was coming for a long time, and not just because I can read your mind.”

All the warmth the Lamb had previously exuded was gone, replaced by a malice Narinder was horrifyingly familiar with.  She turned her head towards Narinder with a sadistic smile.  “Everything has gone exactly according to plan.”

“I…  My Lamb, what are you talking about?”  Narinder spoke with a confused tone.  Of all the outcomes he had planned for, whatever this was wasn’t among them.

“All these feelings you have for me were by design.  I’ve been doing my damndest to make you fall for me.”  The lamb began circling Narinder.  The sun had almost fully set.

“Complementing you at every opportunity.  Rewarding you for every job well done.  Making sure you saw me stealing glances at you.  All calculated.  All planned.”

The Lamb grabbed Narinder’s shoulders from behind.  “Of course, the menticide mushrooms I’ve been putting in your daily tea have certainly helped.”

Narinder recoiled from the Lamb’s touch.  “You what?!?”

“Hehehe!  Oh, you mean to tell me you didn’t notice?  I’ve been slipping a small amount of those mushrooms into your morning tea since you got here.  The dosage you’ve been getting wouldn’t have any outwardly noticeable effect, but it can make a person ever so slightly more…  Agreeable.  More willing to listen.  More open to suggestion.”

Narinder stood in stunned silence, his eyes wide in horror.  Nothing about what he was hearing made sense.  And yet…

“I can see you’re putting things together.”  The Lamb donned a more saccharine smile, clearly intending to mock Narinder.  “I’ve been pushing you towards this outcome all this time.  You certainly made me wait, though.  Was starting to wonder if you’d ever work up the nerve.”

The Lamb turned their back once more, raising their arms wide.  “And you know the best part of all?  Now that you know, you’ll be second guessing yourself the rest of your life.”  They turned their head to Narinder, eyes wide with what could only be described as madness.  “You can’t help how you feel, right?  You’ll spend whatever’s left of your life wondering if it was ever real.  After all, you still feel it, right?”  She turned back to Narinder, eyes almost bulging out of her skull, her smile unnaturally wide.  “Even hearing all of this, you STILL LOVE ME!”  She grabbed Narinder’s face.  “YOU CAN’T TELL WHERE THE TRUTH ENDS, CAN YOU?!  HOW MUCH IS REAL AND HOW MUCH DID I CREATE?!?!”

The pair stood in silence for a moment.  The sun had fully set.  The pale light of the moon illuminated half the Lamb’s face, now receding into a more natural expression.

“And now…  Now that you know the truth…”  The lamb let go of Narinder.  “...Your punishment can begin.”  With that, the Lamb left.

Narinder stood alone in the field, unsure how to even begin to process what had just occurred.  Truly, he couldn’t help but be impressed.  This was nothing short of a masterful display of vengeance.  But then, was that very thought his own, or the product of the Lamb’s manipulations?  Did he truly find the lamb to be so incredible?  Where did the truth end?

Narinder looked down at his hands, eyes still wide.  Even his own memory could be false.  How much of his own recollection could be the product of the Lamb?  Could he even trust himself?

A coldness washed over him.  Of course it was all a ploy.  Though she was still an infant god, she had come into her own quite well.  Her grudge still held strong.  He should have expected that of his usurper.  And yet, it was still quite the revelation.  The object of his desire, orchestrating that very desire, only to turn it against him.  A brilliant plan.  Brilliant?  Did he truly believe that?  Could he believe that??

He no longer knew.  He couldn’t trust the Lamb.  He couldn’t trust himself.  And yet, despite all of this, he could not let go of his love for the Lamb.  This love may well have been the product of the Lamb’s machinations, and yet he couldn’t bring himself to discard it.  He truly did love her.  This revelation felt like…  like…

A sudden revelation struck him like a hammer blow to the skull.  He had felt this before.  This sting.  This pain.  Over a thousand years ago, when his siblings conspired to seal him away.  The rage, the heartache, the unbearable despair.

Betrayal.

Narinder fell to his knees.  For the first time that he could recall, he wanted nothing more than to cry.  But the tears would not come.  The sadness was overshadowed by emptiness.  He felt hollow.  Numb.  As though his very soul had been drained away.

In truth, perhaps it had.

"do you think we should head back soon?” quinn knows the answer to the question almost as soon as they ask it, smiling the moment they peer back at wyatt. they know just how messy dating within your workplace can be, that things could get complicated all too quickly, but there was little fear present for them. if anything, quinn was delighted by just how often they could see their boyfriend and how easy it was to tug him away to some storage closet when they needed him close. “it’s not too busy tonight, do you think they’ll even notice?”

Pervy DILF neighbor Toji that has just the right amount of cockiness to mow the lawn shirtless, knowing you're at the window. Watching.

Pervy DILF neighbor Toji with his bedroom window right opposite yours, curtains always drawn - always. Keeping an eye out for when you're purposefully too distracted to close your own curtains when you change. Hey, sue the guy - he has a great view, and you're having a great time teasing him.

Pervy DILF neighbor Toji who finds that your dryer has broken and you're drying your laundry on your balcony. Only for a pretty lil' piece of lace to land on his own - thank god for the wind. And thank god for those soundproof walls he'd installed with the way he had your panties wrapped around his fist, the other around his rock-hard cock, rasping out your name over and over.

Pervy DILF neighbor Toji who'd knock at your door to ask you for some.....sugar....then maybe let it slip that he'd totally burnt those cookies for Megumi's bakesale so wouldyoupleasemindhelping.

Pervy DILF neighbor Toji who doesn't get much baking done with you that day. Or...at all really.
