Title: Love Comes Knocking on Death's Door Author: I am The Lemon Lord Summary: "I will be returning to the cemetery again." "Wait, why?" She looked at him, shocked. Prim and proper Lan Zhan who hated being outside when it was too hot and humid, was spending time at a run down cemetery? "I promised a favor to the person that rescued me. I must see him again to fulfill it." He played with his straw as his thoughts wandered again. "I am unsure where else to find him. He may be a ghost." Or: A mysterious man gives Lan Zhan a hand when he finds himself in trouble. Now, he has to return the favor in anyway he can.

SO MANY OPTIONS. But:
"He has wanted this for so long, imagined it so often, and yet the reality is at once both more and less than his fevered fantasies." #wangxian #mdzsrbb #ficwip #wordgamewednesday

The one where WWX is talking a lot again. 😆 #ficwip #wipwednesdsay #mdzsrbb

It wheels in the air, clouded in dark mist, and dives toward one of the Jiang, who strikes with a fluid precision that makes something ache in Wei Wuxian’s gut. (What's this, only doing the one allotted sentene this week? 😆 #ficwip #mdzsrbb)

Lan Zhan is watching him again. Wei Wuxian doesn’t have to open his eyes to know it — he can feel the weight of it, the electric focus of that quiet attention, as comforting as a thick blanket on a winter morning. #wangxian #ficwip #mdzsrbb

He flings himself to his feet, takes the wine jug with him, and sweeps out of the room. Fresh air will clear his head, and a walk will kill a bit of time so he can go back inside and find Lan Zhan again. It’s a perfect plan.

Text reads: “Is someone in there?” Lan Zhan shot to his feet. “Ye-yes!” he stammered. If his uncle was here, he would be so ashamed at how inelegant he was being right now. “I am trapped. Could you please open the door?” “Hmmm, what’ll I get if I do?” The voice was teasing, a laugh in their tone. Seriously? Even when someone came to help, they wanted to extort him? Lan Zhan clenched his jaw. “What do you want?” He said evenly. The person on the other side laughed good humoredly. “Aiya! So serious.” A latch clicked and with a creak the door swung open, the moonlight now streaming freely into the space. “Mmm, I don’t have an idea right now, so how about I hold you to it for next time?” The man smiled.

haunt and kill by aroceu Summary: Let me ask you again: there is a cultivator raised in a renowned sect, first of all the disciples and with a golden core stronger than nearly any other, but before he disappeared, he started practicing demonic cultivation. He was suddenly discovered by his sect and, to punish him for his deeds, was disowned with shame and as quietly as possible. Without a golden core or a sect to return to, he continued his crooked way of cultivating. What should be done? [Modern Cultivation AU] 13259 words. Complete. Tags: Teen, Mo Dao Zu Shi, M/M, No Archive Warnings Apply, Lan Wangji/Wei Wuxian, modern cultivation au, timeskips, modern demonic cultivation artistic license, not a coffeeshop AU but there is a coffeeshop and it's an AU, really just a series of Yiling Dates, lwj wants to feed wwx agenda, Smoking, Amnesia, but this is not an amnesia fic, whatever it's called when a wangxian fic echoes the plot beats of mdzs canon, not parallel but not NOT parallel, Miscommunication like in canon, Farming like in canon, Rogue cultivator Lan Wangji

Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian looking at each other, Wei Wuxian from the top of a cafe building and Lan Wangji on the sidewalk of a street. There are faint ghosts hanging around the cafe.

Dumbfounded, Wei Wuxian goes still, body tense as his assailant continues to press their mouths together. He tries to make sense of it all, as his eyesight adjusts to the scene around him, making it impossible for him to deny what is right in front of him.

Now here's the #WIPWednesday for the #MdzsRbb! Someone is taking liberties with wwx 👀

trusting and secure in his strength. Lan Wangji steps closer once more, jaw set in frustration as Wei Wuxian begins to laugh softly, the sound echoing through the trees. Wei Wuxian leans back nonchalantly, “Sorry to disappoint you but you won’t find any prey near me.” Lan Wangji has to hold back a growl. As he hears the other come up to him, Wei Wuxian’s smile widens, the sight so soft in the morning light, inviting the stranger in.

Mystified, Huaisang opens the spirit-trapping bag just enough to peek in. The thing inside lunges toward his face and he slams his hands shut to close it again. ‘What the fuck,’ he stammers, because he is an eloquent and competent sect leader who is good with words and dissembling and not letting on just how he feels. But that is an arm. A possessed arm. A possessed arm not attached to the rest of the body it belongs to, which is likely to make whoever it used to belong to extremely angry — All his breath stops at once.

A bit of #MDZSRBB for #WipWednesday. Nie Huaisang has just been given a...present? #mdzs #ficwip

Before Lan Zhan can actually explode at the very idea, Lan Qiren quells him with his most professorial glare. ‘Indeed,’ he growls. ‘This is a matter which requires delicacy, which is why I struggle to believe I am actually requesting Wei Wuxian’s assistance. But,’ he finishes wearily, ‘it also requires someone who can reliably identify the cultivation techniques. And preferably someone not directly connected to Gusu Lan. Which leaves but one viable option, however much I may dislike it. I have been informed repeatedly, after all, that no one knows more about demonic cultivation than the Yiling Laozu. As he is within immediate reach, he might as well make himself useful.’

This extra #wipwednesday is purely to prove my #mdzsrbb pinch hit has managed to develop a plot and is not in fact just pages of pleasant #wangxian vibes.

Huaisang, who will continue to lie and lie and lie if he must. Who will trade integrity and dignity and pride for revenge.

Huaisang, who wants his brother back.

The incense burns out, withers, and crumbles to ash. The last wisp of smoke fades from the air. #mdzsrbb #wipwednesday

“So strong, gege!” For some reason, Lan Wangji carrying his whole weight was making Wei Wuxian giddy, “Do I not weigh anything to you?" Lan Wangji huffed a laugh as he mouthed against Wei Wuxian's throat, "No."

Mo Xuanyu tilts his head, an approximation of a nod. 'I’m not entirely sure what he’s expecting me to find. They’re very strange notes. All about manipulating resentful energy. Using the dead. Except when they’re not.’ He shrugs. ‘Sometimes they’re just recipes. Or wild ideas about how to use a talisman to turn radishes into potatoes.’ The corner of his mouth twitches, just a little. ‘Or pictures of rabbits. I don’t really understand what those are for.’ Huaisang does not want the image that conjures in his mind, of Wei Wuxian scribbling away in his lonely cave, sparing a thought in the middle of establishing demonic cultivation to remember cuddling rabbits. It squeezes at his heart, somewhere deep beneath the grief and rage that make up the essence of him now. But he only shrugs, titters a little, and says, ‘Well, I’m sure I don’t know! The Yiling Laozu was a complicated person.’

Let's have a #wipwednesday for the road. Nie Huaisang is starting to get some uncomfortable information. #ficwip #mdzs #mdzsrbb

A slow smile spreads across Mo Xuanyu’s face, his eyes going oddly vacant. ‘It’s all right. Guangyao-xiong has been playing music for me, to calm my mind while I work. He’s very considerate.’ Huaisang’s heart stutters. ‘He what?’ comes out of his mouth in spite of himself, and he covers it, badly, with an awkward laugh. But Mo Xuanyu doesn’t seem to notice, for better or worse. He nods, a secretive, indulgent smile turning his mouth. ‘A mind-calming song,’ he explains, as if Huaisang doesn’t know exactly what that song was likely to sound like, as if he doesn’t know what it does. ‘He learned it from Lan-zongzhu.’ The smile goes soft, and Mo Xuanyu props his painted cheek in one hand and stares out adoringly at the sky. ‘It’s very kind of him to take the time,’ he murmurs. ‘And I do so love listening to him play.’

It's not Wednesday but I've been working hard on this and want to share a little! Well out of my comfort zone, but NHS' head is a fun place to poke around sometimes. #ficwip #mdzsrbb

“Look at me, Lan Zhan.” Lan Wangji huffed, exhausted but resigned to whatever Wei Wuxian wanted. He was not going to get away. "I'm looking, Wei Ying." “Good boy.”

It's that time again! Out of context sneak peak of my #MDZSRBB 😝 Thanks again to @skuzzybunny.bsky.social for the art (* >ω<)

A smile slowly creeps across Wei Wuxian's face as his eyes focus on the rest of Lan Wangji's horrified expression. This is the most expressive Wei Wuxian has seen him in a long time, watching his eyes widen further, jaw slackened.
