    Summary

    At sixteen Wei Wuxian is—through some strange twist of fate, or a nick in the layer between parallel universes, who knows—out of the blue confronted with that one incense burner dream one night.

    While his curious mind is left unable to stop poking at this new perspective on Lan Wangji, circumstances in the Cloud Recesses begin to change and Wei Wuxian is suddenly presented with life-altering opportunities.

    Maybe Gusu isn’t so bad after all?

    (Or alternatively: The fic where I get to give Wei Wuxian the academic scholarship he deserves while simultaneously getting him hitched early on.)

    This fic has a Spanish and a Portuguese translation! Please visit the links in the Notes of Chapter 1 to read!

    Summary

    It would only be a matter of time before Langa noticed he was acting weird and confronted him about it. What was Reki supposed to do then? What could he say that would make sense? More sense than "yeah, sorry, man, I might have fallen a teeny-tiny bit in love with you"?

    He froze. In love? No, no, nonono, that couldn’t be it. Admiration, friendship, and well, some type of crush, maybe, since Langa was so talented, and cool and always knew exactly what to say to make Reki feel all warm inside, but in love? A sequence from the video flowed into Reki’s mind; when Langa had started smiling, the pink evening light coloring his hair purple, and how his eyes had glittered, the way they always did when something made him truly happy or excited... Reki whimpered into his hands and squirmed, folding in on himself on the bed.

    Damn it, damn it, damn it, DAMN IT.

    He was so fucking screwed.

    (Or in which Reki finds himself in a most surprising situation; on a paradise island with all his friends - travel and accommodation paid in full by his least favorite person. At least the man in question isn't with them. The holiday is challenging enough as Reki tries to figure out his confusing feelings for Langa.)

    Summary

    Life is a horror movie sometimes.

    You ignore all the warning signs. You end up standing there in the final scene, covered in blood, contemplating your life choices.

    Wei Ying is used to that.

    But it’s harder when you’re in love with your best friend.

    Summary

    Learning a language for your bro was totally a reasonable thing to do, Reki decided. A best bro. A bro who you wanted to spend the rest of your life with. A bro who you would follow across the universe. A bro who you loved so much, as a friend, that you genuinely couldn’t imagine your life without them at your side.

    -

    It's almost time to graduate, and neither Reki nor Langa have any concrete plans for their first foray into adulthood. But they'll have to decide what to do eventually--whether it's going to university, finding a full-time job, or trying to make skating a lucrative past-time. There is only one sure thing: Reki wants his future to include Langa no matter what, even if that means following him halfway across the world.

    Sure, Reki's aware that learning English won't guarantee that he and Langa spend the rest of their lives together, but he figures it'll at least give him a fighting chance.

    Strangely enough, he's right.
