Title: The Shade of Old Trees
Author: Kryal
Filed Under: Modern Setting, Prolonged Courtship
Description from the Author:
“We rest in the shade of trees our ancestors planted.”
They called the man in the ice Yiling Laozu, after a folk hero associated with the town in the foothills of the mountains where he was found.
No one expected him to be alive!
Archivists’ Commentary:
Among the texts thus far catalogued, this work distinguishes itself by an uncommon commitment to historical integrity and narrative architecture. The author has exercised considerable diligence in grounding their narrative stratagems within a coherent and thoughtfully rendered world. Wei Wuxian moves through the text as a cultivator of formidable and frankly unnerving capability, conducting himself with characteristic intelligence; Lan Wangji, with his equally characteristic brand of quiet intensity. The prose itself merits particular note. A commendable acquisition.

Title: stray cat strut
Author: @scarlettohairdye
Filed Under: Cultivation World, Feline Adoption
Description from the Author:
Lan Wangji lifts his head to press his lips to Xiao-Hei's forehead, the kiss an expression of all the affection he has to offer.
“Prrt?” Xiao-Hei says, and stretches, and—
The weight on Lan Wangji increases abruptly, and his hands aren't touching soft fur anymore, they're touching soft skin—bare skin—and he's looking down into Xiao-Hei's yellow, slitted eyes, though not into Xiao-Hei's little cat face, but the face of a man.
A beautiful, startled, very naked man.
Or: Lan Wangji finds himself with a stray cat he didn't want, then a stray cultivator he pretends not to want, and then a stray boyfriend he definitely wants.
Archivists’ Commentary:
The work in question presents Lan Wangji in his most recognisable disposition — composed, unsuspecting, and wholly unprepared — opposite a Wei Wuxian rendered, in the opening passages, in a most literal interpretation of his customary chaos. That a man of Lan Wangji’s discipline should find his defenses so thoroughly dismantled, first by a small creature and subsequently by the creature’s equally disarming human form, is documented here with what this custodian can only describe as an utmost degree of warmth. The author’s affection for both subject and pairing is evident on every page. A most agreeable addition to the collection.
Additional Notes from the Archive:
This work contains scenes of physical union conveyed with striking vividness and emotional weight. It is advised that one read in solitude—and have cold tea readily available

Title: true gold fears no fire
Author: @defractum
Filed Under: Historical Setting, Royalty
Description from the Author:
“Lan Wangji encounters a mysterious stranger on his rooftop.
Alternatively, the Emperor of China has heard rumours of an intruder sneaking into the Forbidden City, a shadow that has eluded the best of his guards.
(Alternatively, Wei Ying just really wanted a drink.)”
Archivists’ Commentary:
The work transposes Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian into an imperial court setting with complex relations — plot construction is thorough, prose balanced, and the author demonstrates competence in alternating between action and quieter moments of what readers have described, with concerning enthusiasm, as “squealing” inducement. The central dynamic between the imperial personage and his perpetually ungovernable associate is rendered with equal parts romantic sincerity and gleeful impropriety, the veneer of courtly elegance proving, in the end, largely decorative.
Additional Notes from the Archive:
This work contains passages of an intimate nature. Readers of incomplete spiritual cultivation are advised to meditate beforehand.
A Notice from the Archive Custodian
This disciple offers its most sincere apologies for the prolonged absence. An extended period of private meditation — necessitated, it must be said, in no small part by the cumulative toll of the texts herein — has kept this custodian from its duties. The archive remains, as ever, a work in progress; a considerable number of scrolls await proper cataloguing, and this disciple has every intention of proceeding through the inventory with renewed discipline.
Going forward, this custodian will endeavour to append the originating author’s register to each entry, that proper credit may be rendered to those responsible for these works — though should any author prefer to remain unattributed, one need only submit such a request and the link shall be quietly removed, no questions posed.
Finally, this disciple extends a most earnest invitation for further recommendations, with a noted preference for lengthier manuscripts, as the inner pavilion’s collection grows ever more distinguished by works of substantial scope.

Title: Run All The Lights
Author: RedStockings
Filed Under: Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics, Modern Setting, Soulmates
Description from the Author:
The alpha’s leathers were white, with blue trims and his helmet shined like a pearl in the artificial lights. It gave him a luminous otherworldly appearance, a god amongst the dust and the dirt of the earth.
Professional racer Lan Zhan is here to compete in a less than legal street race, in order to win a date with Wei Ying.
Archivists’ Commentary:
The narrative under consideration features an alternative universe wherein sect heir Lan Wangji partakes in a form of wheeled competition known as "bike racing," a pursuit both unorthodox and perilously exposed to the elements. The account follows his entanglement with one Wei Wuxian, depicted here with certain omega-coded characteristics rarely attributed to his historical counterpart. Despite the temporal compression of events (a mere three weeks), the emotional trajectory is rendered with striking clarity, causing an unfortunate yet predictable stirring of sentiment. The prose, while intensely affective, retains a momentum that mirrors the thematic velocity of its subject matter.
Additional Notes from the Archive:
This entry contains emotionally charged content, romantic entanglement of a distinctly physical nature, and extensive descriptions of competitive velocity and mutual regard. Those unaccustomed to expressions of unrestrained sentiment or mechanical speed are advised to meditate beforehand and maintain spiritual grounding throughout.

Title: Honey Roast
Author: uaevuon
Filed Under: Modern Setting, Carnal in Nature
Description from the Author:
Lan Zhan has given up on ever putting his hands on Wei Ying, when that demon of a man proposes a… trial run. A one-off scene turns into more. Maybe Wei Ying isn’t as straight as he thought he was.
Archivists’ Commentary:
This work concerns itself with Wei Wuxian’s prolonged and somewhat ungraceful journey through self-reflection, initiated, perhaps unfortunately, within the confines of what can only be described as an elaborate chamber dedicated to highly specialized rites of restraint and discipline. The narrative proceeds with a frank (at times excessive) exploration of interpersonal dynamics between cultivators, touching upon themes of denial, reluctant yearning, and the slow collapse of heteronormative protestation. Particularly notable is the thoughtful incorporation of mortal-world medical discourse—rarely addressed in cultivation literature—which lends the piece a measure of grounded sincerity amidst its otherwise unregulated emotional tenor.
Additional Notes from the Archive:
This work contains extended scenes of disciplinary ritual, rendered with alarming detail. Readers are advised to maintain composure throughout and to observe at least one (1) incense stick’s worth of silent reflection following completion. Sect juniors are strictly prohibited from accessing this scroll.

Title: Brilliance in the Moonlight
Author: rosweldrmr
Filed Under: Soulmates, Canonical Retelling
Description from the Author:
He turns them over in his mind. Jiang Yanli and the Jin clan heir. His father and mother. He and Wei Wuxian. What they are. What it means.
The dancing lights that materialize when they touch. The music that seems to hang in the air between them.
Their golden cores. Pairs of cultivators.
Zhiyin.
Zhiji. Zhixin. Soulmates.
Lan Wangji understands now why his sect, his uncle, had been so ashamed of it. Why they do not speak of it in the Cloud Recesses. His father’s soulmate was a woman who killed Lan sect cultivators. Jiang Yanli’s soulmate is a man who does not want her, who does not even like her.
And Lan Wangji’s soulmate is the most disruptive, undisciplined, loud-mouthed troublemaker the Cloud Recesses has ever seen.
Archivists’ Commentary:
This record, rendered with commendable clarity and restraint of form, details the internal disquiet of Sect Heir Lan Wangji through the mechanism of introspective narrative. The author’s meticulous pacing affords the reader gradual access to Hanguang-Jun’s emotional austerity— cultivated by rigorous sect doctrine and exacerbated by unreciprocated (or presumed as such) sentiment toward a peer of considerable vivacity. The spiritual resonance that binds the protagonists is herein expressed with startling beauty, though not without the complexities of human imperfection. The portrayal of Hanguang-Jun’s entanglements—emotional and otherwise—is unflinching, and perhaps more candid than is typical for sect-sanctioned texts. Nonetheless, its sincerity enhances the realism and depth of character seldom afforded in more decorous scrolls.
Additional Notes from the Archive:
Readers are advised that Sect Heir engages in corporeal unions with both original figures and Wei Wuxian, in scenes rendered with notable specificity. Those of delicate constitution or prone to emotional upheaval may wish to undertake preparatory meditation. Proceed with composure.

Title: Witchfinder
Author: retired (misbehavingvigilante)
Filed Under: Magical Setting, Unspoken Longing
Description from the Author:
Lan Wangji does not think his life has always been easy despite being born a prince.
The hardest thing is his life he's been forced to deal with however is Wei Wuxian.
Ordinarily, a servant wouldn't be such an obstacle particularly when he has the power to dismiss them at his own choosing. No, the problem is not and has never been that Wei Wuxian is a servant. Rather, it is the fact that Wei Wuxian has magic.
Archivists’ Commentary:
The present manuscript endeavors to explore a particularly fervent entanglement between Hanguang-Jun and Yiling Patriarch whose affections, though mutual, remain concealed under the mistaken belief that they are unrequited. The narrative is marked by a steadfast commitment to romantic fervor, which persists unrelentingly across its length, untempered by modesty or restraint. Despite occasional irregularities in transcription (noted but not uncommonly disruptive), the work maintains a coherent internal logic and concludes with a tone curiously aligned with canon events—though whether this is an homage or an unsettling inevitability is left to the reader's discernment.
Additional Notes from the Archive:
Readers are advised that the text contains an abundance of vivid interpersonal congress, often detailed with imaginative vigor. Those undertaking its study are encouraged to prepare themselves with centering exercises and perhaps the recitation of the Clarity.

Title: By Any Other Name
Author: ShanaStoryteller
Filed Under: Canonical Retelling, Gender Transformation
Description from the Author:
Wei Wuxian wakes up in Mo Xuanyu's body and heads straight for Lotus Pier. Wu Yingtai is the newest member of the Jiang Clan and rumored to be the future wife of Jiang Wanyin.
Lan Wangji is not in love with her.
Archivists’ Commentary:
This narrative engages in a speculative exercise involving gender transformation—presented initially with comedic framing, yet pursued with surprising emotional sincerity. The tale centers upon Hanguang-jun’s gradual descent through increasingly implausible stages of disbelief as he encounters a strikingly familiar figure whose identity he most assuredly does not recognize. The reinterpretation of the Yiling Patriarch in feminine form is handled with a curious blend of levity and emotional earnestness, resulting in a text that oscillates between absurdity and heartfelt revelation. The dissonance is, one suspects, quite intentional.
Special Record • On Bearing One’s True Self
As this month unfolds and lotus blooms reflect across the still waters of the Cloud Recesses, we take pause to acknowledge what is often left unspoken: the quiet strength it takes simply to be.
In this spirit, the Lan Clan recognizes this lunar cycle’s worldly observance—known beyond our borders as Pride Month—as a time of remembrance, resistance, and radiant truth.
While excess pride is cautioned against in our teachings, they do not require the self to be hidden. The cultivation of virtue, after all, demands honesty—not only in word and deed, but in being. It encompasses the many forms the self may take: in body, in spirit, in expression, in desire.
As keepers of stories, we must record not only the joy but also the struggle to honor the roots from which it has grown. While some are fortunate to live openly, in many lands, the cultivation of peace is obstructed by ignorance, fear, or cruelty. It must be said clearly: to speak one's truth is courageous—but so too is silence when it is chosen for safety, peace, or privacy. Whether one wears their colors like banners in the wind or folds them gently away like treasured silk, all are worthy of preservation. All are worthy of respect.
Yet one must not forget the soil from which such growth has arisen. The joys many now experience are rooted in a long and difficult history—one shaped by resistance, endurance, and the courage of those who stood firm when silence was expected. Their offerings of effort, clarity, and life itself may not always be recorded in formal scrolls, but their legacy endures, etched in the foundation of the present. They deserve remembrance. And so too do those who walked beside them: allies who offered shelter, voices that spoke in solidarity, hands that cleared a way forward when the path was overgrown.
Though the teachings carved upon our walls number no fewer than four thousand, none forbid the heart from seeking its mirror in forms as diverse as the stars themselves. May your journey be protected, your light remain unshadowed, and your love endure as steadfast as the immortal mountains—may the scrolls record your name in gold.

Title: Who you belong to
Author: Radiencia, UglyBeautiful
Filed Under: Modern Setting, Child Acquisition
Description from the Author:
“Well,” Lan Huan said. “How was it?’
Lan Zhan waved his hand. “Fine. No issues. He’s trying to impress some girl he wants to fuck, presumably. Thank you, brother, I now feel fulfilled in my career choices.”
Lan Huan raised an eyebrow. “We’ll see,” he said.
They certainly would, Lan Zhan thought. Wei Ying wasn’t going to last five minutes once Lan Zhan got going with him.
Wiry young tree surgeon Wei Ying enlists the help of experienced older personal trainer Lan Wangji, in 'project muscles', a bid to win over gym god Nie Mingjue. What could possibly go wrong?
A meddling brother, a troublesome ex, practice sex, a fistfight and accidentally acquiring a child between them for a start...
Archivists’ Commentary:
This modern-era narrative begins under the premise of self-improvement—ostensibly for the purpose of attracting a particular individual—yet quickly diverges into a far more complex emotional and physical entanglement. The Yiling Patriarch’s initial pursuit of aesthetic refinement deepens considerably, exploring themes of personal growth, unspoken yearning, and the oft-tumultuous journey toward emotional recovery. The presence of a gymnasium setting does little to temper the intensity of sentiment or the corporeal expressions thereof. The trainer figure—Hanguang-jun—proves both a source of discipline and, eventually, of unexpected vulnerability.
Additional Notes from the Archive:
This work contains scenes of an explicitly intimate nature. Readers are urged to proceed with caution, maintain internal composure, and conduct themselves with proper decorum.

Title: Once Patience Bears Fruit
Author: FinallyGotTheInvitation
Filed Under: Post-Canonical Reconstruction, Dual Cultivation
Description from the Author:
The second time Lan Wangji loses Wei Wuxian, he is no longer able to follow him; He has reached immortality. So instead, he waits. Years later, Wei Ying sees a phone recording of a mysterious mountain man, and his body acts on its own. He travels to Gusu.
/
OR Wei Wuxian dies, and Lan Wangji waits for his reincarnation. He has to wait a lot longer than he expects.
Archivists’ Commentary:
This post-canonical account commences with a tone of levity, disarming in its ease, before unfolding into a narrative of considerable emotional depth. The reconstruction of events following the dissolution of major sect conflicts is both thoughtful and unexpectedly affecting. Hanguang-jun is subjected to a prolonged period of inner turmoil—rendered with poignant clarity—while the Yiling Patriarch is afforded opportunities for reconciliation that, though improbable in official records, are nonetheless deeply gratifying in their execution. The narrative proceeds with measured pacing and commendable character fidelity, suggesting the author approached the subject matter with both reverence and literary ambition.
Additional Notes from the Archive:
Readers are advised that, while spiritual strain is minimal in the early chapters, later passages may provoke introspection, unresolved sentiment, and, in some cases, discreet weeping. Furthermore, depictions of explicit dual cultivation appear with increasing narrative significance. Adequate preparation and solitary reading are encouraged.

Title: to dine on swan
Author: Bookkbaby
Filed Under: Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics, Dragon and HuliJing
Description from the Author:
"Master Lan told us you were sick," Wei Wuxian said, though thinking back on it, Lan Qiren had said that Lan Wangji was 'unwell'. And looking at him now, face flushed and hair disheveled, Wei Wuxian couldn't even say that was inaccurate. "I brought soup?"
Omega fox Wei Wuxian hears that alpha dragon Lan Wangji is sick and decides to bring him soup, only to find out that Lan Zhan is actually in rut.
Wei Wuxian offers to stay. Lan Zhan accepts.
This has far-reaching consequences for both of them.
Archivists’ Commentary:
An examination of this narrative reveals the young Yiling Patriarch engaged in a series of well-intentioned, if frequently unorthodox, efforts to demonstrate his regard for Hanguang-jun. Despite his apparent sincerity, the cultivator's methods remain firmly outside the bounds of orthodox comportment, leading to a sequence of emotionally turbulent events that test the patience and equilibrium of all involved—most notably Hanguang-jun himself. Ultimately, a resolution is achieved, one that suggests spiritual harmony restored, if precariously balanced upon a foundation of chaos and unchecked sentiment.
Additional Notes from the Archive:
Sect members considering this account should be advised that, while the resolution is heartening, the degree of physical closeness depicted may require subsequent meditative reflection. Readers are reminded that even the pursuit of affection must remain within the bounds of discipline.

Title: services rendered
Author: spookykingdomstarlight
Filed Under: Modern Setting, Unspoken Longing, Sugar Guardian
Description from the Author:
When a chance encounter brings Wei Ying together with his high school crush/academic rival years after the last time they saw one another, Wei Ying just wants to take the opportunity to sleep with him before they go their separate ways again. Instead, he acquires a bossy sugar daddy and the long-dormant urge to confess every old, tender feeling he's ever shoved away.
This is not how Wei Ying ever expected his life to go.
Archivists’ Commentary:
A chronicle which opens with a brief portrayal of the protagonists in their youth—rendered with such saccharine fondness—before progressing into more emotionally complex territory. Wei Wuxian is depicted enduring considerable tribulation, though his characteristic resilience remain intact. Of particular note is Lan Wangji’s unexpected yet purposeful application of a seldom-mentioned paternal inheritance. The narrative is steeped in poor communication, lavish attentiveness toward Wei Wuxian, and frequent demonstrations of physical devotion. A study in contrasts: youthful mischief and adult indulgence, restraint and surrender.
Additional Notes from the Archive:
Readers should be forewarned that while the depicted dynamic is reciprocal in essence, it is Lan Wangji who most frequently adopts the more yielding position physically. This portrayal may unsettle those with firm expectations. As the work contains scenes of an intimate and highly expressive nature, spiritual recalibration (and possibly a cold spring) is advised post-reading.

Title: A Marriage Story

Filed Under: Modern Setting, Arranged Marriage
Description from the Author:
WWX and LWJ, lifelong acquaintances, agree to an arranged marriage. It is a disaster. They hardly talk. The sex is terrible. WWX is disillusioned and miserable. Then he catches LWJ in a lie, and everything starts coming undone. -summary by reader yesmissjane.
Longstanding Romantic Delusions; Recently Cured by Marriage. Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian are the married parties in this case.
Archivists’ Commentary:
A rather harrowing chronicle detailing a prolonged period of emotional estrangement between Hanguang-jun and Wei Wuxian, precipitated by a grievous misapprehension and sustained through mutual silence. The narrative unfolds across a gestational cycle of discord, wherein miscommunication serves as both antagonist and architect. Notably, a single moment of misplaced intimacy involving a third party acts as the catalyst for reconciliation. Despite its tumultuous path, the work concludes with the re-establishment of emotional harmony.
Additional Notes from the Archive:
Sect members engaging with this entry should be apprised that it contains several passages of intimate nature, varying in emotional tone and moral clarity.

Title: touch me deep, pure and true
Author: clancularia
Filed Under: Carnal in Focus, Not suitable for young disciples
Description from the Author:
“You are a unique case,” Lan Wangji said. “I am not sure I will be able to help you. Even the methods of investigation will need to be experimental.”
“Does that mean you won’t help?” Jiang Yanli asked.
“No,” Lan Wangji answered slowly. He looked at Wei Wuxian. “But you must understand that the process would not always be... comfortable. And that, despite the possible discomfort, there are no guarantees that anything I learn will lead to a solution.”
___
Wei Wuxian goes to renowned scholar Lan Wangji for help with his core injury. In a twist that neither of them were expecting, it turns out that the solution to all his problems is a whole lot of magical, kinky sex.
Like... a whole lot. But it's all for very important Reasons, they swear!
Archivist’s Commentary:
While initial cataloguing suggested a work of wholly licentious intent, further examination revealed an unexpectedly structured narrative beneath its overwhelming sensual content. The plot—though frequently interrupted by scenes of vigorous and imaginative intimacy—does exist and is, in fact, competently woven. The principal characters engage in acts best left undescribed, often in public or otherwise ill-advised settings, with an array of implements and a level of verbal exchange that would render even the most senior cultivators faint. The author appears entirely unrepentant in their pursuit of thematic excess, blending emotional intensity with increasingly elaborate impropriety. It is unclear whether the work is educational, carnal, or some alarming fusion of the two.
Additional Notes from the Archive:
This text contains material of such an explicitly corporeal nature that spiritual destabilization is not merely possible, but likely. Prospective readers are strongly advised to engage in cleansing meditation before and after perusal. The pairing is explored with an enthusiasm that may challenge even the most stoic disciple’s composure. All restraint—sectarian or otherwise—has been abandoned. Proceed with every caution.
