Thanks to @/bee_off_main, I am now thinking of my own wangxian nap headcanons.
I like to think that post-canon LWJ learns the joy of napping, after a lifetime of extremely rigid sleep scheduling.
I think it's a difficult adjustment for him at first! I think after his very first nap, he wakes up with bedhead and a dry mouth, feeling like he's been run over by a truck! He doesn't understand why people like naps!!
But WWX helps him get used to it.
They snuggle up in their bed in the middle of the day to cuddle, or lie on a blanket in the rabbit fields and doze off while holding hands.
Slowly, LWJ's body learns to adapt, and naps become refreshing.
He starts to prioritize Naptime!
No, Uncle, he cannot have that meeting during wei-shi. That is Naptime With Husband, a most sacred hour. Must push the meeting forward to wu-shi, so he can finish up before Naptime. ☺️

I think LWJ has cold feet (literally, not metaphorically) and he delights in poking them underneath whatever part of WWX is nearest.
Bonus points if WWX caught off guard, and he shrieks and squeals.
LWJ: My husband is my entire world. Nothing matters to me more than his contentment. I would rip out my own beating heart before causing him even a moment of discomfort.
LWJ:
LWJ: *sticks his cold feet under WWX's thigh at night*
WWX: *unholy shrieking*
LWJ: :3
WWX yelps and howls and grumbles about his husband's horrible conduct! He says he'll make LWJ copy lines the next day!
Then he rolls LWJ up in a blanket like a dumpling, flops on top of him to keep him warm, and plots out loud.
You've heard of toddler!LWJ and infant!WWX. Now get ready for the reverse!
Babyji hates everyone who is not Mother/Uncle/Huan-ge. He kicks up a HUGE fuss if anyone else tries to touch him.
For this reason alone, LQR allows himself to be cajoled into letting his nephews meet CSSR and her family while they're in town.
As expected, LWJ spite-vomits on CSSR when she picks him up. He bites WCZ.
It is, LQR decides, what they deserve. They INSISTED upon meeting the boys, after all!
LQR is just a tiny bit smug as he watches CSSR pull out a wet wipe to clean off her shirt. Revenge has been achieved! A-Zhan is defending his uncle against long-ago offenses!
Continuing the theme of Pregji-as-Chief-Cultivator, I think it would be lots of fun when LWJ hits the point in pregnancy where he starts getting emotional.
Particularly since WWX and LXC are HELLA protective and can smell Pregji tears from a MILE AWAY.
Random sect leader: Your Excellency, I think this proposal for an additional 5% tax for the purpose of building new orphanages is simply too outrageous!
LWJ: *thinks about how WWX and LSZ were both orphaned young*
LWJ: *tears up, lower lip wobbling*
WWX and LXC: *bust through the door like the Kool-Aid man, immediately ready to Fight whoever made LWJ cry*
Random sect leader:
Random sect leader:
Random sect leader: I-I mean, obviously 5% is not enough for proper orphanages. H-how about 10%?
Another thought I was obsessed with during my hiatus:
Post-CQL. WWX and LWJ finally reunite. LWJ has just resigned as Chief Cultivator, and WWX has just finished sneakily building a cottage in a village near Cloud Recesses.
He's set up a little farm outside with some chickens and goats and things. The house is simple, but solidly built.
And he shows it to LWJ, and (with much stammering and rambling) asks if LWJ would maybe consider someday doing him the honor of living with him in that house.
Tears! Kissing! Joy! Etc.!
LWJ is happily packing his little qiankun bag so they can elope immediately.
Anyway! During my hiatus I was very much obsessed with the idea of a modern AU where NMJ and LXC only meet when they're in their 30s, but NMJ still tries to aggressively big-brother LWJ.
I'm very fond of settings where NMJ gets to meet Babyji in all his feral-weird-kid glory!
But I also think it's funny if NMJ is 35 and LWJ is 27, and NMJ is still like, "*gentle gasp* My new boyfriend comes with a free bonus didi?!?!"
NMJ probably waits all of 48 hours after his first date with LXC to call LWJ and interrogate him about his health.
Is LWJ a vegetarian like his brother? Oh, he's a VEGAN? Then is he making sure to get enough plant-based protein in his diet? Is he taking his B12 supplements?!
