Summary
Jiang Cheng is dying.
The insidious spread of hatred's venom has lead to the beginning stages of the dissolution of the greatest gift he never wanted: Wei Wuxian's golden core.
In the face of this knowledge, he must finally learn to reconcile that hatred to what it truly is, what it only ever has been...
Love.
Undying, unrelenting love for the man he once called brother, and the man he once called ally and friend: Wei Wuxian and his husband, Lan Wangji.
It would be immensely helpful if he could just stop running into them every damn where. Yet here he is, trapped with them in a cave of all places. Honestly.
On top of that, the agonizing recurring dream that's haunted him since Wei Wuxian's return just has to make an appearance that night. The most vivid appearance yet.

Summary
“That being the case,” Zewu-Jun said briskly, “let me direct you to a place that will help you heal up a bit faster, so you won’t fall behind in your studies.”
Unbidden, Jiang Cheng felt a shy smile creep over his face, and his heart swelled with gratitude for Zewu-Jun’s unexpected support. It was true, he did need every spare moment, because he knew that his mother would accept nothing less than perfect scores, perfect attendance, perfect everything from him, even though he always struggled with his lessons and Wei Wuxian breezed through. He bowed again, thanked the First Jade politely, and followed as he glided away towards an unknown part of the Cloud Recesses.
Walking one step behind Zewu-Jun, as was proper, meant that Jiang Cheng missed the man’s small, private smile.
Canon-divergent from Episode 3 of The Untamed, or; What if Lan Xichen Sent Jiang Cheng to the Cold Pond Instead of Wei Wuxian?

Summary
"Did you hear about the Yiling Patriarch? They say he went mad, killing over three thousand cultivators during the siege!"
"He was already mad! And no wonder, choosing the demonic path to rebuild the Yunmeng Jiang Sect. The arrogance of these youth!"
"Was he not run through by his own shixiong?"
"He deserved worse if you ask me. To think such a promising young master turned out to become even worse than Wen Rouhan himself! That damned Jiang Cheng!"
---
Or, MDZS reimagined with Jiang Cheng becoming the Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation, and the tragedies that led to and follow his descent into darkness.

Summary
“Are you a cultivator?”
“No,” she says, steadily. “This one doesn’t possess the core for it.” She pauses and raises her eyes to his, so boldly he finds it a little startling. “I believe that I can be of use to the Jiang sect in spite of that, and I have brought a gift to prove it. May I show you?”
Fully intrigued now, Jiang Cheng nods. The girl unslings the bundle from her back, unties a couple of straps, and unrolls it on the floor in a smooth motion.
Jiang Cheng is on his feet before he even consciously realizes it’s happened, and the reaction murmurs out through the hall. There, on a blanket that belongs on the back of a horse, are five Wen cultivator swords, offered to him by a girl who looks like the word “bumpkin” was invented specifically for her. What the fuck.
“Where did you get those?” he asks, instead of asking “What the fuck?” out loud, because that would be unbecoming of his status as sect leader.
The girl meets his eyes again, lifts her chin, and says simply, “I killed the men who carried them.”
Or: Fan Dingxiang cultivates the swole path. Jiang Cheng doesn't know how to handle that.

Summary
So I've seen a number of "Jiang Cheng gets tossed into the Burial Mounds" AUs and they all pretty much agree that, because Jiang Cheng isn't a genius like Wei Wuxian, it takes him way longer to master demonic cultivation.
Bullshit.

Come spend some time at the Burial Mounds Tattoo & Fortune Parlor! Get inked by legendary artist Wei Wuxian, or have your cards read by local charmer Nie Huaisang. Don’t worry, we guarantee all our ghosts are benevolent and our service is to die for!
Nie Huaisang and Wei Wuxian are co-owners of the Burial Mounds Tattoo & Fortune Parlor. They’ve been best friends for almost a decade, so it’s a big surprise when Wei Wuxian’s estranged brother—whom Huaisang’s never even heard of—shows up at the shop. Despite an instant attraction, Jiang Cheng’s aggressive nature quickly pits him and Huaisang against one another. But, the real trouble starts when the fighting ends.

Summary
Center, a planet where magic and technology blend. Or more accurately, fight tooth and nail. A planet of Sources, holes in our boring dimension letting through arcane power, chaos and pseudo-deities. In this hot-house of myths and very real dangers, Trowa and Quatre find a mysterious man at the end of a shamanic voyage. Portents suggest this Heero Yuy is crucial to Center’s survival. He’s important enough to have some interesting enemies after him, at any rate: a devious killer and thief called ‘Shinigami’, and a very irate Dragon. Beyond them looms an even greater threat. Indeed, the greatest of them all.
(Alternative Universe, far-flung future sci-fi/fantasy. There are elements from the anime that exist here, albeit in very different forms; Gundam mechas, Zero, and lovely G-boys for instance. They are perhaps a universal constant we are not yet aware of.)
This fic was originally started over a decade ago. It has been heavily rewritten and is now finished.

Summary
He was the last person Namjoon expected to hear from - thought he was dreaming when he saw the email in his work inbox. It was short and simple, typical Hoseok. Just: We saw what happened. We’re so sorry. If you need get away for awhile, you’re always welcome to come stay with us - JH. He wonders now if Hoseok was surprised when he said yes. If Hoseok only extended the invitation because he didn’t think Namjoon would actually come.
(Or: Namjoon chose a solo career and left Yoongi and Hoseok behind. Seven years later, after being outed by a Korean tabloid, he ends up on their couch in Queens, trying to face an uncertain future. And confront feelings that have persisted for nearly a decade.)

Summary
Min Yoongi is an art director with zero tolerance for bullshit, looking for ultimate perfection in everything he creates.
Kim Taehyung is the co-owner of a vintage fashion boutique who talks to clothes and learns magic from Tumblr.It’s a match made in the depths of hell.
[“Taehyung-ah,” Seokjin says, wily and soft, “You’re not scared of meeting Yoongi, are you?”
Taehyung knows this is bait. Seokjin knows this is bait. Even Yeontan, running circles around Taehyung now, knows this is bait.
His angry brows are very expressive, and right now they’re saying 'don’t take the bait, don’t be a stupid fish.'
Taehyung's a stupid fish.]- Language:

Summary
Yoongi had been aware of the shadow for as long as he could remember.
Sometimes he went months without feeling like it was just a few steps behind him or waiting around the next corner. But no matter how long he was able to avoid it, it always came back. Always.
It's 1993, and Yoongi is a music major starting his sophomore year in college. A bunch of stupid dares from his friends aren't supposed to turn his world upside down. Then again, maybe it's not the dares. Maybe it's just Taehyung.

Summary
"You bought me!" Yoongi hisses because that is the truth of the matter. "You bought me with salt and with silks, and my parents sold me as though I were a fruit about to rot."
Yoongi is the omega son of an impoverished nobleman. Namjoon is the heir of a rich merchant family looking to improve their bloodline. Love is no easy thing to grow on barren lands.

Summary
He calls himself a Vault Dweller, and maybe that's true, but Hancock can see it, Daisy can see it. They all can see it.
There's something like danger that whispers in the wind where he walks, a spell of bad luck that tracks in his footsteps.
"Trouble," Hancock says. "He's trouble."
Fahrenheit shoots him a look. "We could use a little trouble around here, boss."
He grins and it's feral enough to set her teeth on edge. "Yeah, sister. Yeah we could."

These Lyrics Will Write Themselves by PrettyBoyKiller

Summary
Harper Lee wrote in To Kill a Mockingbird, "with him, life was routine; without him, life was unbearable.”
For all the shit he talked, Yoongi secretly wanted to find someone like that. Someone he'd miss when they were gone, and someone who would miss him when he was gone. He was skeptical and cynical and basically all the things Namjoon complained he was, but really, all Yoongi wanted was to believe in a love that would never lose.

Summary
"Absolutely not," Yoongi deadpanned. "Namjoon-ah. I value you as a friend, and I think I'd even go as far as to say that you're my best friend, but absolutely fucking not."
"You owe me," Namjoon pleaded. "Come on, Yoongi, it's not a big deal."
"Your boyfriend's best friend's best friend needs a fake boyfriend to come out to his family this Chuseok, all the way in fucking Busan." Yoongi repeated drily without pause, making Namjoon wince. He flipped a page of his textbook, picking up his highlighter. "Not a big deal, Namjoon. Amazing."
