Hi, I finally found you to ask. I was just wondering why you made some of your YOI fic unreadable on Ao3 now? It makes me sad scrolling down my bookmarks and seeing that I can't read your stuff anymore. No pressure, but I was just wondering if there's a reason? *hugs*

hi! there’s no particular reason as to why i’ve privated some of my work other than the fact that i’m embarrassed by most of them and didn’t think anyone would miss them if i’d deleted my fics off ao3. i probably will unprivate them in the future, but i’m prone to privating and unprivating my ao3 works from time to time (the cycle usually correlates to my self-esteem :p) so it’s not a sure thing. i’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed them tho!

In the blighted depths of the Nightless City prison, the second prince of Gusu unlocks a cell door and opens it.

It’s empty. The prisoner across the aisle is more than happy to tell him why—but not before being a shameless bastard about it.

thara celehar is my favorite because he is just a little guy who has a panic attack at a man flirting with him, but he also fully, with prior knowledge, fucked a married man, absolute chad behavior

yo just FYI in case you didn’t know, the fact that your privatebobsie collection is marked as unrevealed means those works are listed as unrevealed mystery works. if they’re your works, obviously that’s your choice and that’s fine! but if there’s someone else’s works in that collection then they can’t be read. have a good day, my b if you already knew this and they’re your works!

hi, yes i’m aware about private collections on ao3. any works i put into my privatebosbie collection are my own. thanks

Was watching a Natasha Pulley interview today and she says (about Mori) “he thinks that he’s an old guy perving on some beautiful young pianist.” Which, of course, is sad and sigh-inducing and all that. BUT, more pressingly, she used the word “beautiful” to describe Thaniel.

get you a man who can do all four, simultaneously

#pulleyverse #!!!! that’s some true love shit right there!!

Thaniel: Mori and I haven’t seen each other for a while, he probably doesn’t like me anymore :(

Mori, who dedicated his entire life to manipulating time itself on countless fronts, to the point of reworking global politics and near impossible invention, all to make the life of one London clerk a little better because he loves Thaniel to a scale it is impossible to measure within normal human proportion:

mission report by bosbie

LZ is such a simp for WY... bwahahaha.

The best line “... I ask you to at least inform me of his current relationship status.” He is soo embarrassingly cute 😊

❤️❤️❤️❤️

Quotes:

“Oh, shit,” the man in black said apologetically after taking a step into the warehouse and registering the scene laid before him. “Am I interrupting?”

“Yes,” Lan Wangji said, continuing his descent downwards.

“Who the hell are you, and what the hell are you doing here?” the villain snapped at him, peeved that his triumphant moment was disturbed.

Of all the ways Lan Wangji expected the man to react when faced with a flashy display of torture and eventual murder, none of them were in the vein of nonchalant bewilderment. But that was the expression inexplicably plastered on the man’s face as he looked back and forth at the two of them before saying, “I was just passing through.”

“Could you pass through faster, then? I’m in the middle of something.”

The bubbling of the acid was getting louder, and his cape was already submerged at the hem. In the most dignified way he could muster, Lan Wangji squirmed.

————

“Ah! Stop right there!” Yiling Laozu held his hands up in defense. “I did a good thing today! Doesn’t that mean I get a get out of jail free card? Just this once? C’mon, man.”

“I have never heard of such a card.”

“Come on.” Yiling Laozu nudged Lan Wangji’s shoulder with his own. He smelled of, predictably, burnt tree, crushed leaves, and gasoline, but also a near imperceptible note of lotus. “No one’s gotta know that I was even here. I won’t tell anyone if you won’t.”

“I don’t lie.”

“Lying by omission isn’t technically lying.”

Yes it was. “I must mention you in my mission report.”

At that, Yiling Laozu once again grinned. Mission accomplished, Lan Wangji distantly thought, even though his mission had been accomplished for about a half hour now.

“I have a feeling,” Yiling Laozu said, smug, “that no one reads those.”

How? Lan Wangji wanted to ask.

T, 13k

Summary:

Lan Wangji is a superhero, and Wei Wuxian is the supervillain who saves him.
