I enjoy thinking about how LWJ and WWX both have the same love language (acts of service) and how hilarious it must be when they're both trying to do an act of service for each other at the same time.
LWJ and WWX spend the night together for the first time, at LWJ's house!
The next morning, WWX shovels the snow off LWJ's driveway while LWJ cooks WWX a seven-course breakfast.
Then they go out for coffee, and have their very first fight as a couple: who gets to hold open the cafe door for whom, and who gets to pick up the check??
They have to compromise: LWJ gets to pay for the coffee, but that means WWX gets to hold open the door to the cafe.
As they're leaving the cafe, WWX rushes ahead so he can ALSO be the one to open the car door for the trip home!
LWJ takes revenge by buying WWX an extra pastry and sneaking it into WWX's bag so he can eat it later.
Just two besotted dumdums, constantly battling it out over who gets to take care of the other!
I love them so much.

I think it would be funny if LWJ and WWX work in the same office, but different departments. Their paths don't cross all that often, but it doesn't stop WWX from developing a BIG crush on LWJ.
...Alas. It seems he is too late. 🥲
LWJ is notoriously aloof and standoffish! He despises small talk!
But it takes remarkably little provocation to make him talk about his 'A-Yuan'.
A-Yuan is so clever. A-Yuan is so kind. A-Yuan is so generous.
A-Yuan gave him the most beautiful flowers for their anniversary!
(The anniversary of when LWJ adopted him!
A-Yuan raided LXC's garden for those flowers. NMJ helped him pick them.
Because A-Yuan isn't allowed to use scissors yet.
Because he's four years old.
WWX does not know this, and it genuinely doesn't occur to LWJ to mention it.)
I think it would be cute if LWJ and WWX had an ~arranged marriage~ in place before they even met at the CR lectures.
Because I can see WWX pushing back against this, and almost-but-not-quite behaving like JZX!
...Not quite, though. Because unlike JZX, WWX has a jie.
I can see WWX simultaneously crushing on LWJ and feeling resentful that his future has already been decided for him, and coping with these conflicting feelings by bullying LWJ.
Mostly affectionate bullying! But sometimes he bullies Too Hard, and JYL looks at him like 😠
WWX promptly wilts like a delicate springtime flower! He stammers out an apology and flees with his tail between his legs!
Then he goes and buys LWJ a present in Caiyi Town. He gives it to LWJ, and then turns to JYL like, "🥺 Look. I said sorry. 🥺 I made it up to him. 🥺"
I do think that modern wangxian marry young, and start their family young! I think they have three biokids, two adopted kids, and probably two more unofficial foster kids that they just happened to pick up.
(Hey, their teenage kids have some friends with a lousy home life! What are wangxian supposed to do, NOT adopt those kids? I think NOT.)
Anyway. They're very happy and have a nice overflowing house.
And then. The day comes when their youngest finally moves out. 🥲
Spoiler alert: wangxian absolutely cannot cope as empty-nesters.
Everyone who knows they started a family young is like, "Oh, how nice for you two! You're only 42 and you've already got the house to yourselves! You can travel and have fun and be carefree!"
I'm having a comedic little brainworm about an AU where LWJ meets the 'evil bandit' WWX, and promptly decides that getting kidnapped by an evil and seductive bandit would be in his best interest, really.
LWJ: *spots the famous and famously-handsome WWX riding along the path*
LWJ: ...
LWJ: ...
LWJ: ...A notorious bandit dares to attack me while I am fulfilling my duties, like any other respectable person. What has this world come to. 😔
WWX: ...Ehh? No, young master, I've already stolen enough silver for the day. Don't worry, you're safe from me this time, haha! 😜
LWJ, already dismounting from his horse: The wickedness of this world is astounding.
Thanks to @/orca_day and @/enigmatree, I am Thinking about Mothxian (secretly an Eldritch Entity) and Witchji.
I am thinking about tiny little moth-person WWX swooning delicately into Witchji's hands! He is only a tiny barely-magical being! He needs the tender care of a witch!!
He needs Witchji to make him a fluffy little bed out of a matchbox and some cotton puffs!
He needs Witchji to hand-feed him nectar!
He needs Witchji to carry him around on his hat!
He's delicate and fragile, you see. He cannot possibly care for himself. 😮💨
What's that?
Su She (who fancied himself Witchji's rival and always harassed Witchji) has disappeared?
He left nothing behind except the vague odor of sulfur and a strange greasy smear on the floorboards?
