It was unexpected for everyone, when Wei Ying woke up in the middle of being held to drink some water with a rug, helped by his brother.
He blinked weakly and looked up at Jiang Cheng with a relief that gave the younger boy the chills.
"Good to have you back with the living ones, dumbass," Jiang WanYin said, loud enough to be heard through the lifting fog inside Wei WuXian's brain and also be heard by the Jiang disciples that had accompanied him in the task of retrieving Wei WuXian from the cave.
Wei WuXian let go a grumble and fell back on the floor, letting a couple of moments pass by before he was startling everyone around when he sat back up in a hurry, looking almost frantic.
"'An Zhan?" He asked, his voice strained with feelings.
On cue, Lan WangJi rose from where he had been gathering his strength back attempting to meditate, and it was attempting because he was way too conflicted to accomplish that. "I am here, Wei Ying," he called back.
Wei WuXian's face brightened when he turned around to where Lan WangJi was standing, a wide smile that warmed WangJi's ears to the burning point.
"Lan Zhan!" He called again, scrambling to his feet. When he wobbled, Lan WangJi was at his side in a blink, helping him stand. Wei WuXian smiled at him again, even when Lan WangJi was giving him a stern glare. "Lan Zhan," he said again, softer, "I thought you'd leave as soon as we left that cave. I'm glad you didn't."
WangJi's glare intensified a hundred times, before he looked to the side, clearly embarrassed. Jiang WanYin was a step closer to stop his annoying brother from well, annoying the Lan Heir, when said teenager nodded, "mh."
Wei WuXian beamed.
Jiang WanYin grimaced.
"Hey, Lan Zhan?" Wei WuXian began again, his hands timidly holding onto Lan WangJi's forearm where he supported Wei WuXian so he wouldn't fall over. WangJi gave him attention with a glance, Wei WuXian took that to keep talking, "I... Wa-wangxian is a really good song."
Lan WangJi gasped audibly, letting go of Wei WuXian's arm before grabbing him again as if he couldn't decide what to do with his hand, with the information that Wei WuXian had just provided, or with Wei WuXian in general.
"What song is that?" Jiang WanYin asked, raising an eyebrow. Wei WuXian smiled at him and sighed dramatically.
"Ah, you see! It's my new favorite song ever, A-Cheng. It's so pretty... so gorgeous, so good to hear! I really... fancy it! I like it, I would like to hear it everyday. That's how much I've liked it!" He emphasized every word, squeezing Lan WangJi's forearm in the process.
Lan WangJi's head was down, as if he was staring at their feet, ears incredibly red.
"Wei Ying..." Came weakly from the boy, making Wei WuXian laughs softly.
"Ah, Lan Zhan. I'm being honest here. What do you think? Would you play it for me everyday?" He asked tilting his head to the side, in hopes of getting a look at Lan WangJi's face.
"How could he play the song for you everyday?! Don't be ridiculous, Wei WuXian!" Jiang WanYin admonished his brother.
After a beat, Lan WangJi spoke again, "Mh, ridiculous," he agreed. But he lacked the heat behind the insult, making Jiang Cheng frown further. What was wrong with these two?!
"Ah," Wei Ying noticed, "that's not a no, Lan Zhan," and he pointed it out. Lan WangJi tried to make a step back only to stumble with his own feet. Wei WuXian was there, still holding onto him and helping him to stay standing. "No need to fall for me like that! Lan Zhan!"
Jiang WanYin made a disgusted face, waiting for Lan WangJi to snap at his brother like he always did during their lessons at the Cloud Recesses, but that never came. Instead, all that could be heard in response was a weak "Wei Ying..." from the Lan Heir, and a loud laughter from Wei WuXian, who seemed entirely too happy in the ridiculous situation.
Honestly, Jiang Cheng thought, he didn't wanna know.

I don’t have the time nor energy to write this but
A modern cultivation au where cultivators are celebrities. They compete in televised tournaments either as part of a pair or solo. The pair events are more popular because the challenges are more intricate, a high risk high/reward sort of thing, so each Sect puts a lot of time and effort advertising their cultivator duos.
Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng are a popular duo, as are Lan Xichen and Lan Wangji. They are known as the Twin Heroes of Yunmeng Jiang and the Twin Jades of Gusu Lan respectively.
After being rejected from the Lanling Jin Sect Meng Yao becomes a part of the Yunmeng Jiang Sect, and while he is allowed to compete in solo events, his main role is to act as a PR manager for the Twin Heroes. Madam Yu has very high standards and Meng Yao is the only one clever enough to meet them.
There is a interesting love dynamic between our five main characters. Lan Wangji has a crush on Wei Wuxian and Meng Yao has a crush on Lan Xichen. Wei Wuxian cannot believe Lan Xichen is dense enough to not realize Meng Yao is in love with him, whereas Lan Xichen cannot believe Wei Wuxian is dense enough to not realize Wangji is in love with him.
Meanwhile Jiang Cheng is the perpetual fifth wheel who thinks they’re all being super dumb.
Everything changes when rumors spread that Wei Wuxian has an illegitimate child that he murdered the mom to keep her quiet. It’s a PR nightmare, and worse, it looks like the rumors might have a kernel of truth to them?
Turns out that one night of fun Wei Wuxian had with Wen Ning’s cousin produced a little baby A-Yuan, except the mother never told Wei Wuxian, in hopes of keeping her son from being hounded by paparazzi all his life, the way she had grown up. Except now she’s dead, her family suspects foul play, and Wei Wuxian is looking like a promising suspect.
Wei Wuxian is surprised and overwhelmed but determined to make up for lost time and clear his name, Meng Yao is scrambling to put a spin on the story that won’t disgrace the Yunmeng Jiang Sect, Lan Wangji is simmering with jealousy but determined to prove Wei Wuxian’s innocence, and Jiang Cheng has to deal with the fact that his ex Wen Qing is actually really good with children, and as A-Yuan’s guardian, she might be a permanent fixture in his life now.
Featuring: WangXian and their toddler son A-Yuan, XiYao, XuanLi and their infant son A-Ling, and ChengQing exes to lovers
