Fluff and smut about Lan WangJi and Wei WuXian from The Untamed, often featuring Wei Ying in his paper man form, a cheeky little paper imp, who I find absolutely adorable. Lan WangJi's brother, Lan XiChen will also appear occasionally.
This fanfic is from the point of view of Lan WangJi, and the first 2-part story serves to recap their story so far. However, I would recommend that you at least watch the drama before reading this fanfic, as plot points and sweet moments from the drama and novel will be revealed.
In short: Lan WangJi has loved Wei WuXian from when they were around sixteen years old, but Wei WuXian turned to a dark path in cultivation, the fight against the armies of darkness, and was killed. Thirteen years later, Wei WuXian is resurrected, and the two meet again, but how does Wei WuXian feel about Lan WangYi?
A note on the names. I use the birth names in the narrative, and the other names in dialogue, depending on who is speaking and what their relationship is with the one they're speaking to.
Lan Zhan, the birth name of Lan WangJi. Lan Zhan is only used by people close to him. His chosen name is HanGuang-Jun, which is an honorific that refers to him and his brother, and is used by most people in formal situations.
Wei Ying, the birth name of Wei WuXian, also called The Yiling Partiarch (by those who fear him). Called Mo YuanXu when in his new body, until his real identity is revealed. Also called Senior Wei later on in the story.
Lan XiChen, the commonly used name of Lan Zhan's brother. His birth name is Lan Huan, which is almost never used in the main story. ZeWu-Jun is his chosen name, used by most.
Note: this is pure fanfic, and all images used are from the drama, unless otherwise stated. All rights for the characters and plot from the novel/drama belong to the writers and producers.
This was again meant to be only a few scenes, but some plot crept in without permission, and now I have ideas for about fifteen chapters.
Enjoy!
Wei Wuxian was a mischievous person. Everyone knew it. Upon going into the Coud Recesses to attend the 3 month lecture, this was something Lan Zhan had learned well, especially since he himself was often the target. Still, Wei Wuxian was definitely talented, if a bit unorthodox. So, when Wei WuXian returns after ab absence of about a month, returning just in time to aid in the wipeout of the Wen Clan using some odd form of cultivation, Lan Zhan realizes something is wrong. The previously outgoing boy has turned inwards on himself. He no longer makes jokes, he smiles when anyone is looking, but the smile drops when nobody is paying attention. He laughs, but Lan Zhan knows they are faked. He flinches away from anyone, and Lan Zhan is sure that he could hear screaming at some point during the night. He is no longer creating mischief and breaking rules, and was often found alone, staring blankly into the distance. The only people who could touch him without him backing away was Wen Ning...and him. Lan Zhan realized this when he had grabbed Wei Wuxian to keep him from storming out of a room, and instead of fighting him off as he did with everyone else, he calmed.
Unnerved by the drastic change in personality, and, though unwilling to admit it, worried for the slightly younger boy, Lan Zhan gets his father and brother to convince the Jiang clan to let them take Wei Wuxian back to the Cloud Recesses, under the pretence of having him attend more training, as an official Disciple in a few more months. The Jiang clan eagerly agreed, as such an opportunity was ra early given.
Lan Zhan soon realizes, however, that Wei Wuxie went through far more than he was telling anyone, and that, just perhaps, Lan Zhan may be beginning to feel attracted to the boy. He wants to help him, and both boys find the road to love is not always straightforward as it seems.
