ficbinding: only begun to get to the person i was (i'm different when i'm me) by deadbeatrefrain
This fic is about Lan Sizhui and Wen Ning's postcanon journey to Qishan, where Sizhui connects with his heritage and confronts his conflicted feelings about his past. I incorporated both Lan and Wen colors into the design. Originally I planned to have a blue and white cloud pattern on the actual outer cover, with a narrow band of the red marbled paper peeking out behind, but I happened to see this gold sun fabric at the local quilt shop and ended up re-imagining the design around that, making the Lan element (the paper sleeve) completely removable. Which I think is more in line with the theme of the fic, too. I'm really happy with how this came out in the end!
