Hi nonny! Thank you for your recommendation, I haven’t read these yet but they are now definitely on my to read list :)
Here is a quick author highlight for anyone who would like to check out these wangxian fics by estel_willow!
emptiness in harmony (homeward bound) by estel_willow
PG | Lan Zhan/Wei Ying | One-Shot: 8.9k | Notes: Post canon/canon divergence (maybe?), hurt and comfort, angst, violence
Hanguang-Jun, coughing up dark, bubbled blood, looks skyward and with the last vestiges of his consciousness breathes Wei Ying.
And somewhere, thousands of Li away, Wei Wuxian wakes from a dead sleep, clutching at his chest and calling Lan Zhan’s name.
Agapé (home is in your arms) by estel_willow
G | Lan Zhan/Wei Ying | Multi-Chapter: 14.9k | Notes: Post canon, mutual pining, fraternal bonding, oblivious Wei Ying, angst, self-sabotage
“You know,” he says, eleven days after he started bringing Lan Xichen his lunch, “the Grand Master has added another twenty rules in these last two weeks alone.”
The door is closed and he’s leaning back against it, forearm braced on his knee as he lounges on the step. From inside, he hears a soft snort that sounds like Lan Xichen heard him.
“Including one specifically about not having any kind of spices in the kitchens, which feels really petty, if you ask me. And one stating, specifically, that no one is,” he mimics the low timbre of Lan Qiren’s voice and the way the older man strokes his beard even though he can’t be seen, “Do not approach or talk to Wei Wuxian.” He huffs out a breath, “Talk about making someone feel unwelcome, Zewu-Jun. I don’t know if I should be honoured or heartbroken that I have become so hated that I have been immortalised on your wall of rules.”
Lan Xichen is in isolation. Wei Wuxian visits him. Together they find their way back to happiness, to clarity and to home.
the loneliest path (he walks alone) by estel_willow
G | Lan Zhan/Wei Ying | One-Shot: 312 words | Notes: Canon, missing scene, angst, self-sabotage
This is it, he thinks, with Apple's reigns in his hand and a breeze blowing between them. This is where we part ways. Where he leaves me. Where he realises what I've been trying to tell him all along.
A small missing scene, set after they part ways with Sizhui and Wen Ning, seconds after Wei Ying asks "aren't you going to come with me?".
