#wangxian critical

[t4tadrienette]

I think some of you should take off your Wangxian goggles when talking about a scene, especially if you wanna talk about Jiang Cheng being homophobic (he is not) especially in the fucking ancestral hall scene, he was not being homophobic, Wangxian were being disrespectful and the donghua made them look even more disrespectful honestly

[least-carpet]

If you still want to do the shipping meme: chengning? (or any other jiang cheng related ship, I love him)

Chengning, my beloved!! I'm also going to stick Wangxian in here, since @add1ctedt0you asked me about it in a comment.

Chengning: Ship It

Currently my main Jiang Cheng ship, which sucks because they're a rarepair. Although apparently Yu Bin also ships it? So us five whole chengning shippers are in good company.

What made you ship it?

Honestly, I kind of incepted myself into it.

They're narrative foils. Both younger brothers with somewhat opposing temperaments from the outside, since Jiang Cheng is sharp-tongued, blunt, and pragmatic, while Wen Ning is timid, shy, and somewhat idealistic. They both orbit Wei Wuxian, who, although he loves them and is deeply protective of them, doesn't seem to particularly respect either of them. I also think that they're more similar than they seem to be on the surface, since Wen Ning's secret resentment is so strong that it makes him an especially strong fierce corpse after he dies.

I'm really interested in Wen Ning's decision to rescue Jiang Cheng in order to... bring him to Wei Wuxian? He drugged a bunch of his sect members and smuggled a whole enemy sect heir out because Wei Wuxian was nice to him once? It's heroic but, like, baffling, especially since he doesn't defect from the Wen afterwards. (There are a lot of reasons for him not to want to defect from his family's sect, but then why betray the sect at all? It's not like his cousins have any intention to stop torturing, slaughtering, etc. Why save this one guy?) It also weirdly is a rescue that doesn't seem to have a lot to do with Jiang Cheng himself. I'm not sure what to make of it. Compels me, though.

Wen Ning's hero-worship of Wei Wuxian means that the one person he'll actually be mean to is Jiang Cheng. While normally "he's only mean to this one guy, so they're in love" is not really my thing, this interests me because Wen Ning is otherwise not a very honest person when it comes to his feelings. He is the King of Repression. It is literally the source of his fierce corpse powers. So, while I also don't think the scene where he yells at Jiang Cheng about the core transfer is a great display of honesty either (I think he says a lot of shit that he knows isn't accurate but will hurt Jiang Cheng's feelings), he's at least showing him his real feelings.

What are your favourite things about the ship?

I like it because I think it forces Wen Ning out of his holding pattern. I want to see Wen Ning grapple with what Wen Qing and Wei Wuxian did to him, which he aggressively does not want to think about, but which Jiang Cheng's situation ensures he can't escape.

I also think, if they were able to get past the anger and resentment, that they'd be cute together. They're both capable of tremendous love and devotion, and wouldn't it be nice for that to be directed at someone who can reciprocate wholeheartedly (rather than at Wei Wuxian who like... definitely loves them... but is also a lot more willing to walk away than either of them are, generally, in life).

Also I think it would really freak Wei Wuxian out, which is very funny to me.

Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?

Making Wen Ning the "nice one" and Jiang Cheng the "mean one" is missing the point, which is that this is an angryboy4angryboy relationship. One of them is just better at hiding it.

Wangxian: Don't Ship It

I'm sure this comes as no surprise at all!

Why don’t you ship it?

I'm not particularly interested in it, and that's partly because I only like Lan Wangji when the person writing him is aware of his flaws. Number one thing guaranteed to get my back up is when a writer is like, behold my character, who is a perfect gentleman, and then the character walks by and kicks a puppy (or bullies a teenager to get back at the teenager's guardian). Stop buying into his hype! He's a spoiled second son who has never had to be nice to anyone he didn't like!

What would have made you like it?

I like it sometimes! I'm just a little picky about it. I want everyone to be reasonably flawed and Jiang Cheng to be treated with some complexity. (I get that sometimes you just want a convenient bad guy, but if that convenient bad guy is Jiang Cheng, I am simply not your desired audience! And that happens semi-often with wangxian fic because it's the fandom juggernaut pairing. I gotta sift aggressively.)

Despite not shipping it, do you have anything positive to say about it?

There's a lot of great lesbian wangxian. I may also just like Lan Wangji a lot more when she's a woman. (This is because I love when women are assholes.)

[factsilike]

I don't know why so many people are coming to LXC's defence recently, like he never did anything wrong or never had a choice or that he was only manipulated, because 'JGY was just that good of a manipulator.'

Like no, the novel makes it clear that at several points that he was being willfully blind and ignorant of JGY's and the cultivation world's faults. The fact that LWJ and WWX found out about JGY killing NMJ after only a little bit of digging because they thought to suspect him, which Lan Xichen somehow didn't think to do despite spending close to twenty years working with him. That's a very long time, and that says more about his tendency to turn a blind eye, to not look deeper, to look away from the uncomfortable truth, than any good about JGY's manipulation abilities.

That is not to say Lan Xichen isn't a good person. He is. The problem is that he's not willing to put in the work to be good. He's unwilling to stand up to anyone. When WWX rightfully calls out JGS for trying to be the next Wen Rouhan, (about which JGY was like 'I mean, you're right, but you're not supposed to say it...."), he convenienly ignores that, opting to irrelevantly comment about how 'his heart had changed'. (Which made no sense?? LXC barely knew anything about WWX at that point!)

He's content to stay in his comfort zone, to go with the easy solution of letting others decide. If there's a problem, he'll go with the flow, and if there's a deeper ugly truth to it? He doesn't want to know about it. The situation of his parents is a perfect example. He says it himself: he doesn't want to know, and thus doesn't want to understand what happened with them.

Also for someone whose whole thing is being nice, he can be unbelievably tactless. Look at the ending events of the Guanyin Temple, where JGY is missing a limb and LXC, without thinking, asks Nie Huaisang of all people to give him medicine to heal. You know, the same Nie Huaisang who, at least to LXC's knowledge, has just learned that this same man is responsible for the death and dismemberment of his brother's body, as well as many others. And he now wants his help. To heal his brother's killer. Yikes. It's a wonder that NHS didn't immediately plan to kill LXC right then and there. And even if LXC was physically and mentally exhausted, it was still an incredibly thoughtless move.

Look at the way he laughs about NMJ (a member of the gentry) taking a third of the prey on Phoenix Mountain- "Oh typical Dage, that's just like him!"- while ignoring accusations against WWX (a son of a servant) doing the same, because he's subconsciously agreeing that it was a problem when WWX did it. He's being blatantly hypocritical and it's frustrating that he doesn't even realise it, or acknowledges it.

One of his redeeming factors can be his love for LWJ, but he's frustratingly careless about that too. For all his teasing (in which we never see LWJ indulging, he just unhappily and sulkily endures that. Teasing is not supposed to be fun or amusing if it's only one sided. Compare that to how he responds with snarky remarks to WWX's teasing, meaning he enjoys their banter) and pushing and advocating for LWJ's happiness, he never seems to deeply consider what actually makes him happy.

Everything he does for LWJ turns out to be the very opposite of what Lwj actually wants; inviting WWX and the others for the Caiyi hunt? Not what Lwj wanted, LXC merely convinced himself of that. His pushing LWJ to go talk to WWX at any chance? Doesn't ask or seem interested in why exactly LWJ would want to talk to WWX, nor help him in not letting their conversations constantly devolve into arguments. Shutting LWJ's protests at how WWX was right at the banquet with the 'his heart had changed'? Convenient for him to say, both hurting (even if it was unintended) his brother and changing the subject. And somehow everyone forgets that it was LXC who led the thirty three Lan elders to the cave after the Nightless City for Lan Wangji to fight against, for 'his own good.' And of course his whole angry, projection and deflection fuelled rant at the Guanyin Temple, where he tries to make WWX feel guilty about his brother's confession (which, you know WWX didn't remember because of the trauma clouding his memories), and make him think that he owed LWJ a relationship, which was exactly what LWJ was most afraid of.

His failings hit harder for me than any other character, because unlike JGY or XY or JGS who have no qualms about their immorality, he's supposed to be one of the good guys, a righteous clan leader who abides by honour and dignity. And yet he fails to do anything of sustenance all throughout the novel, and is a painful reminder of how easy it is to go with the wrong crowd, and that how so many 'nice' people like him exist irl, people whose willful ignorance comes at other's expense, people who want to be good but are too afraid of conflict, too set in their comfort zone to speak up against injustice, people who are all too willing to turn a blind eye and do nothing if the injustice or tragedy to others doesn't affect them.

[tiredbitchposts]

Fine, this may be a conspiracy theory, but does anyone else thinks that after seeing the popularity of the non-canon ships in the scum villain fandom MXTX decided to write her next protagonist to be completely isolated on purpose? Because that has been on my mind a lot. Like, it's a fact that she hates it when people ship her MCs with anyone other than their canon love interest, MXTX wrote her first book with an MC that had a long list of people who adored him and were willing to die to protect him in-work, people ate it up, she noticed that a great part of the fandom ships her MC with basically anyone, she hates it, but no matter what she says the ships keep going, then she writes her next book. In that work her MC is a charming, popular cultivator, who suffers a terrible fall from grace and by the end of it he's lost pretty much everything from his past, except his canon love interest. Even if we take away all the love, respect and adoration Wangxian has towards each other it's pretty clear by the end of MDZS that Lan Wangji is the only one left for Wei Wuxian, everyone else is either dead, distant or just hates him

[user-needs-new-hyperfixation]

With the usual disclaimer that this isn't about what anyone else should or shouldn't like but rather about what I personally like: THE FOREHEAD RIBBON IS RIGHT THERE. I don't need Wangxian doing pre-negotiated modern BDSM rituals and using an anachronistic streetlight system lmao. BUT THE FOREHEAD RIBBON IS RIGHT THERE. Listen. Listen. Imagine everything is exactly the same, except that when they first go tumbling into that bush they have this little moment, suddenly still and looking into each other's eyes, and Wei Wuxian unties the ribbon and pulls it loose -- symbolically removing Lan Wangji's control -- and then they go hog wild. But at some point in the fray, when Wei Wuxian is doing his whole "no, stop, it's too much" routine, he lets go of the ribbon, and Lan Wangji just stops immediately. And Wei Wuxian is like "excuse me what the hell I was having fun" and Lan Wangji just reaches over and curls his fingers back around the ribbon without a word and Wei Wuxian sort of mulls over that for a second and then understands that if he really needs to stop all he has to do is drop it. He nods. There is no overwrought conversation or setting-breaking therapy speak. Just this simple silent understanding. And then they're back to it. And then I'm clapping for them instead of making this face.

[wutheringskies]

The Lans and Nies have no right to check and intrude between whatever is going on between Wei Wuxian, the Wen remnants and the Jins. Yet, they somehow have enough rights to go and witness the deaths of Wen Qing and Wen Ning with their clan disciples. And why were these two being killed? Because Jin Zixuan died by the hands of Wen Ning in an ambush set forth by the Jins upon Wei Wuxian, who was invited to Koi Tower by the Jins! So, it's definitely the Jin's matter, yet now you guys can come!

And what ends up happening? Somehow, Wen Ning who is being supported by Hanguang-jun loses control and ... kills Lans and Nies? Not the Jins! In the Jin palace! In an event orchestrated by the Jins! Death by a fierce corpse that the Jins should have prepared for! A whole ass cultivation sect? And a fierce corpse can go and kill whoever it wants?

But great!

Because you guys didn't ever go and check what the matter at Burial Mounds actually was like, because not your problem! Now, it has become your problem and you're forced to take part in the oath ceremony to go raze the Burial Mounds, and then you know, to defend himself, Wei Wuxian comes! And somehow it's his fault for "slaughtering." As if you guys weren't going along with the flow, not even questioning for a second why the smart Yiling Laozu would kill the people who could have stood up for him? And then what? You guys were present at the Oath Ceremony so more of you ended up dying, and now you have to go and take part in the slaughter of 50 innocent men and women and old people!!

Just because you were in positions of power, yet chose inaction. You got completely played! Naive.

Now, that's not enough yet.

Now, there's only two people who could've saved Nie Mingjue - Wei Wuxian and Wen Qing. But they're both already gone! Perhaps if Lan Wangji wasn't in seclusion, he would've stood up against the slaughter of all those minor clans who "tried to assassinate sect leader Jin"! But he is!

Now, Lan Xichen would rather shrug off both of his sworn brothers showing utmost hostility towards each other and increasing amounts of killing intent as a misunderstanding. He would think, oh he's being so nice and nuanced, understanding how people have to sometimes do bad things to maintain peace :((

Like, Lan Xichen's whole identity is built over avoiding conflict. When it comes to good and evil, there is no third side. How can you preach righteousness if you're not willing to carry the burden of morality? Sympathy doesn't equate to righteousness. Perhaps, if be wasn't a sect leader, he'd be good. But when you're a sect leader, being good isn't enough! Your inaction amounts to hundreds of lives.

Wei Wuxian perhaps has the most blood on his hands yet he values even the life of some useless servant, or some half-dead grandmother. You're all letting entire clans die to maintain a peaceful environment and you're thinking you're being righteous. If you have doubts then check them out!

Why are Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji so fated?

Well, firstly they've seen how "ugly" the other can get. Lan Wangjj knows that Wei Wuxian can turn up the heavens for righteousness, that he'll gladly walk through hell, if he could he would even offer up his own pieces of flesh. Wei Wuxian knows Lan Wangji cannot pretend things are okay when they're not. He is stubborn to no end with what he believes to be right, is willing to bear each and every consequence. He'd rather do what he thinks is right and accept the punishment later, whatever that will be.

In the face of truth, you can't hide, and you can't be prejudiced.

Wei Wuxian was hurt so much by Wen Chao, thrown into the Burial Mounds yet he brought the same surnamed Wens into Burial Mounds willingly to protect them! How can Nie Mingjue simply act on his hatred? In your righteousness to kill all evil, you started killing without exceptions and became the evil himself!

And why does Lan Xichen not have anything to say about Xue Yang? "Er-ge... this is what father wants." But Jin Guangshan is also a sect leader! Lan Xichen is also a sect leader!

I wonder what Lan Xichen said to Wangji after his visit to the Burial Mounds.

"Xiongzhang, there isn't an army but a child, the elderly, the women."

"Wangji. I understand. But Wei-gongzi has really upset the orthodox society now. It is no longer about the Wens. His cultivation is evil, and he holds the Tiger Seal... he even brought back Wen Ning's consciousness... you believe you know him..."

And boom, tell that to Jin Guangyao and three days later, everyone knows about Wen Ning. Props to Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji for not holding grudges towards anyone and simply riding off to the sunset and even helping everyone who never tried to understand their true hearts.

Both of them are really blessed.

[onhoude]

MXTX couples are Company Repellents. A normal background character in their stories would be suffering to be near them.

Wangxian? Hanguang-jun is the most revered wild card somehow, and (once the background character has calmed down from realising that this is the powerful Yiling Laozu and he probably doesn't eat souls) Wei Wuxian turns out to be rather cheerful and somewhat whimsical. NPC also knows of certain rumours between him and his cultivation partner, and there is this massive tension between them and Yunmeng Jiang sect leader Jiang Wanyin. It is best not to get involved. And it's also a bit freaky that that body was once Mo Xuanyu's, you know? Even with all that, it's also uncomfortable to be around them because they just exude an air that no one but them matters when their hands brush against each other, or the air blows through their hair just right, or the light is reflected in their eyes - at that point even the NPC is wondering who they even are to disturb them even though there's urgent jianghu business to address, but they don't seem to care!

Bingqiu? Demon Lord Luo Binghe can and will kill the NPC. He does not care about the NPC. The NPC has to ensure everything around Luo Binghe is to the Lord's liking, but ideally, he must be avoided at all costs. In contrast, Shen Qingqiu (can but) won't kill the NPC. If the NPC can find the Immortal Lord (while unattended), he's civil enough in a conversation, if a bit cold. However, it's common knowledge that Cang Qiong Mountain has been through years of anguish and that Liu Qingge himself has fought countless battles to bring back ... Shen Qingqiu's corpse ... against said now-revived man's current husband: Luo Binghe. So that's a bit weird. There are also rumours going around that he is some immortal Cucumber. And, ah, the NPC wishes they could purge it out of their mind. There's that song about them that the NPC (has drunkenly sung and) knows by heart, and there are at least two volumes of bestselling erotica the NPC has read. Good luck poker-facing through a meeting with the Peak Lord and/or their shizun now.

Hualian? This god has been mocked and ridiculed mercilessly for centuries (likely for longer than the background character has been alive, and they may very well have participated in that, it was the normal thing to do) and is seemingly suddenly swept off his feet by the greatest terror. Crimson Rain Sought Flower has Heavenly Officials run in circles for vengeful fun! The two unearthed the most appalling scandals and travesties of the Heavens, and who knows what will happen now? Even without all that, Xie Lian is seriously out of touch with the rest of society, and he has no idea what's happened or what's been popular in the past few centuries: most conversations are awkward! Except, the background character (if even in a position to do so!) doesn't go to meet him because while the god is pleasant enough, Crimson Rain is lounging in his lap. He glares at them. They are sufficiently self-aware to know that Xie Lian's opinion of them is their only saving grace. Suddenly the conversation isn't so lighthearted anymore, and Xie Lian must know this, but he keeps smiling sweetly through it all!

Summary: When the dust settles, when Jin Rulan is officially granted the title of leader of Lanling-Jin and Nie Huaisang has taken the mantle of Chief Cultivator, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji receive an urgent letter. Cutting their travels short, they head south-east from Shangqiu and arrive back in the Cloud Recesses of Gusu-Lan a month before a conference is to be held in the Unclean Realm. A conference to discuss the fate of one Jin Guangyao. - Or, the one after it all.

Kay's comments: This story takes a look on what could have happened if Jin Guangyao would have survived Guanyin Temple and I really like it a lot. Lan Xichen starts petitioning to other sect leaders that Jin Guangyao should be allowed to be imprisoned in the Cloud Recesses until the end of his life and the other sect leaders aren't very happy about it, because they want him dead. Lan Qiren calls back Lan Wangji from his honeymoon to help him deal with the fallout and learns to appreciate Wei Wuxian in the process. Really enjoyed it!

Excerpt: “I wish I knew,” Lan-xiansheng sighs, and he looks older than Wei Wuxian remembers. Worn and tired. “I worry for him; he has not taken the recent changes in the jianghu well. I fear that this might cause trouble for the sect, if he continues to stand by Jin Guangyao despite the proof of his actions that has arisen.” That Wei Wuxian has heard of—more small sect leaders coming forward about underhanded deals, payoffs to civilians. Hardly anything surprising; if Nie Huaisang had a hand in it, Wei Wuxian would also not be surprised. The new Chief Cultivator seemed quite disappointed by Jin Guangyao’s survival. Wei Wuxian can’t say he disagrees with that disappointment.

A lot of wangxian war prize fics are in the same vein as "sold to 1d" but lot kinkier and without being self insert. It's "oh no I'm being given to yllz/hanguang-jun 😱😳 !!" with cnc scene(s) thrown in. And it's honestly a scenario I can see wwx wanting to role-play in bed.

[eleanorfenyxwrites]

I accidentally missed WIP Wednesday again :( I’m not going to post any snippets this week because tbh I’m running out of things to post 😅 I’ve been super busy at school and I just haven’t been writing much lately because my mind is always on other things, it seems like. But I will do this much, at least, a little peek into my writing process:

When I write fics, sometimes if I’m stuck and don’t want to write the exact scene that needs to happen next, but I have Thoughts for a different scene in that work that need to be written down, I’ll put intermediate actions/scenes in brackets to remind myself how to get from point a to point b. I have one that I just wrote that says “LZ doing LZ things and WWX being sappy about it.” And if that doesn’t sum up wangxian then I don’t know what does.

another goofy mdzs drawing i did not too long ago but this one has context plssss

basically me and my friend came up with a wangxian au where wei wuxian works at arby’s and is like a famous influencer who posts about his daily work there and has a huge following of people and one if his said followers is none other than lan zhan 😭☠️ he fr makes it his mission to meet wwx cause he rlly likes him and even tho he doesn’t like arbys he goes just to see him

me and my friend weren’t sure if in the story lwj would be like a infamous food critic or if he would just be a random like famous guy 😭 LMAOO PLSSSSS THIS STARTED AS A JOKE AND THEN
