college student lwj studying a class under famed author wwx who is conducting a workshop for aspiring writers. lwj turns something in for the creative writing assignment, next thing he knows wwx has sent him a link of fanfic he wrote on wwx's characters asking, "is this you?"
WHICH FIRSTLY. lwj is surprised that wwx reads fanfic based on his on stuff and then mortified bc that's his smuttiest work yet. even better if he's a huge deal in the fandom and almost everyone knows his stuff (idk how it matters but it does LOL)
lwj knows lying is forbidden but he straight up lies and says no so wwx comes with receipts and shows passages from the fic & lwj's story that are eerily familiar and he's like either you're the same or you plagiarized from here, which one is it
wwx going on a rant and saying that he knows it might be weird but he's been following this fic writer for a long time and this particular story has been very impactful for wwx and he knew right from the first word of lwj's story that he'd read it before in fic
lwj takes a moment to feel proud of himself that his fave author reads his stuff and also that it has been impactful in wwx's life but then proceeds to pull out of the class after writing a new story and handing it in as an assignment
but wwx does not let it go and he's like yeah sure you wrote this new story but it just cemented my belief that it's you cause of how distorted the writing is as if you've very consciously tried to not write like this it's okay lan zhan i'm a fan thank you for supporting my work
yeah idk where i'm going with this now but i feel that maybe they end up co-authoring a book bc wwx had always wanted to work with this fic writer cause maybe lwj has been writing fic for a long time and wwx has been a fan since way before he published his own work
guests arrived and i never finished this but yeah i guess it goes from there. they co-author the book, write more stuff together and separately, fall in love, get married, have lotsa babies, live happily ever after ❤

no but i'm rlly thinking about the wwx dies and then time travels to cr brainrot so much idk what to do 😭
the dead wens all come back bc wwx has manifested that with his whole heart and idk some demonic cultivation shit. and then it's so heart-breaking when they all realize that wn has *not* come back 😭
wwx going to hug wq and wn with all his might and wq is crying all over him but wn is like wtf wei-gongzi why are you being this way? wwx has never felt his heart break louder
but just the thought of wwx getting hanahaki after he returns from the burial mounds bc he thinks lwj hates him & everyone assumes it's a side-effect of his demonic cultivation.
wwx himself isn't a 100% sure of the reason so he assumes that it *is* bc of the demonic cultivation. it's not like he has unrequited feelings for anyone... but in his mind even his friendship for lwj is unrequited so he does get the disease.
he tries to make light of it and is successful for the most part bc the sects are busy with the sunshot campaign first and then painting him the villain later. wq suspects something is amiss with the whole situation but doesn't have the supplies or the money to help wwx.
there is so much modern wangxian but where is the modern wangxian where wwx is a techie genius who runs an orphanage as his main job with a bit of inventing amazing things as a side hustle?
i'm really invested in this so idk it goes like wwx is obviously a genius and in his early twenties he sells some patents which set him up for life so he uses those funds to start an orphanage bc he doesn't want anyone to suffer the way he did on the streets.
he throws himself into this place and is assisted by wen ning. nhs helps with the design and aesthetic, maybe? jyl might've helped him hire good caretakers and cooks and such for the place. it takes a year or two, but he sets up this safe haven where no kid is turned away.
arranged marriage au where lqr arranges for his bff's, cssr, son, wwx, to his nephew, lwj. now, ofc, wwx is wwx, all bright smiles and non-stop chatter while lwj is decidedly a homebody, quiet person. lwj very much thinks that this match will not work.
the first time he meets wwx, he's decided that he could never spend his life with someone like wwx. he needs his peace and quiet, he can't spend his life with such nervous energy surrounding him.
wwx is also not 100% on board with the whole match bc he thinks lwj is a boring fuddy duddy who has never had fun one day in his life. which is truw, btw, but lwj likes his life the way it is. he does not need wwx's brand of adventure in his life. his life is absolutely a-okay.
wangxian au where wwx is a conman astrologer and things are fine until he actually ends up summoning a real life djinn, who happens to be his assigned bodyguard, and he learns that he, in fact, does have powers and is not entirely human after all.
wwx comes from a very influential family that was once the ruling dynasty of a completely different realm separate from the human realm but there was a war and his family perished and there are new rulers now. they think wwx's entire family is dead, but wwx is very much alive.
he doesn't remember anything about his past, so the djinn he summoned, his bodyguard, lwj, tells him about the war that he served in, that ended up killing his family. that the people in their realm deserve to have wwx be their emperor.
