(tw: themes of self-harm)
Throwing some japanese mythology-inspired crane wife au angst at you and vanishing :D #mdzsww #wipwednesday ImageImageImageImage
For people who don't know: In the original crane wife myth, a poor villager saves a crane and then the crane returns as a beautiful woman and marries him. Later, as they're very poor, the crane uses her feathers to weave expensive cloth to sell. (There are many versions tho)
Omg i forgot to add that this fanfic was written for the prompt from @wangxianpeonies for a wwx's birthday event! I wasnt in time, however. The prompt was "wwx loses something precious"
IT'S NOT LWJ! this has a happy ending!!!

You know what would be great? A dimension-travel fic where Xue Yang, number one disciple of the Yiling Wei Sect, dies in a stupid nighthunt only to wake up in a strange world where he is a famous deliquent in Kuizhou (????) and an thirteen-year-old street kid (!!!!).
XY: Answer my questions.

The other street people who XY beat up: *crying* we REALLY don't know! You've been here your whole life!

XY: ...

XY, pissed off: I don't know how or why but this is definitely the fault of that awful annoying Shifu of mine. No other explanation to it!
XY decides that since the people of Kuizhou don't seem to know shit, he must head to Yiling and see for himself what the fuck happened to him. Shifu better have a great explanation for this! He can accept being dead but he can't accept being at the bottom of the food chain!!

Soulmate AU where WWX does good recklessly and loses everything all at once. He is left trying to cling to a semblance of a good life with only a little kid and a crammed, dark apartment.

Lonely, exhausted and far too drunk at 3am, he curses under his breath and plants the seed.
Soulmate seeds, they were rare at some point probably. They're really worthless now, after being mass grown by profit-driven companies. They're sold in plastic packets like jellybeans. You can buy one at the local gas station alongside gum and soda like some novelty item.
But WWX has never planted one before.

All his friends have. Kids are technically forbidden to use them, but. Well. They're so cheap. Who can even stop kids, really? In highschool, everyone WWX knew had grown two, three flowers at least. WWX always lied and said he had too.

I am now frothing at the mouth to write a story where wangxian go nighthunting in an obscure village with a marriage-blessing deity, accidentally end up drunk and wake up in a blessed marriage with a magical bond they can't break.
Yes they went and did their three bows in front of the nearest deity. WWX remembers a few vague snapshots of the night. LWJ remembers exactly nothing. Now they're magically married and if they go against their marriage vows the marriage-blessing deity will be sure to punish them.
No, they don't remember their vows.

#warprizejiseason The Sunshot Campaign was going to be lost, and the one suffering the most was the Lan Sect; already weakened by internal strife and yet cornered again and again by the vengeful Wen Sect.

So, after long contemplation, Sect Leader Lan came to a decision.
It'd been more than a decade since the previous Madam Lan ran off with LQR, and the previous Sect Leader was continuously unavailable. The current Sect Leader Lan was chosen as a last effort from amongst the branch families to lead until the 11 year old heir could be reclaimed.
Unfortunately, Madam Lan and LQR ran fast. They also hid well. The Lan cultivators pursuing them only once managed to drive them into a corner, but even so, the 11 year old heir, LXC, could not be reclaimed.

The previous Sect Leader's 5 year old younger son, however, could.

I don't say this enough but I love love LOVE aus where the Lan Clan are connected to/actually are Chang'e's Jade Rabbits. Jade Rabbit LWJ who has tripped and fallen out of the moon meets Very Tired Human WWX's messy 1 room apartment. It's just so funny to me.
In a single bedroom:

There is WWX who sometimes manages to find time to take shower between his 4 part time jobs and subsists exclusively on instant noodle.

There is also LWJ who is a shining, graceful deity in magical silks striding through the heaps of laundry and judging.
When he's startled LWJ's rabbit ears pop out. No I don't make the rules.

AU where on that visit to Yiling when LZ is only five years old, he gives the nameless street kid in rags his new toy and then, when the kid's stomach grumbles, the fancy silver hair accessories in his hair.

"Wa-wait, gongzi!" The kid cries out, wide eyed, but LZ already gone.
The kid hurriedly goes after him, but LZ is too deep into the crowd to be found. Clutching the hoard of expensive things in his two tiny hands, the kid (A-Ying, his parents used to call him, but nobody else long since) runs around the marketplace.

He has to return the silver.
He can't keep it. It's too precious. He's not-- A-Ying isn't allowed to have such beautiful things. If he doesn't return them, he'll be in trouble.

A-Ying isn't able to deserve things like this. The little gonzi was so pretty, like a doll-- not like A-Ying. A-Ying is too dirty.
