I don’t think Jiang Cheng and Lan Wangji have actually stonily ignored each other for 16 straight years since Wei Wuxian died. I think their relationship has ebbed and flowed and changed shape several times, and that they’ve reluctantly worked together in situations where they’ve realized “ugh, That Fucking Guy is the only other person in this room with the Correct Opinion,” and most importantly I think they have a huge argument every few years to keep the loathing fresh and alive.

They’ve actually put a lot of work into their relationship, but the work they’ve put in is purely to maintain as much animosity between them as possible. And that is why they seem so very divorced.

#the reason I made this post is Hm I bet at one point they had a huge argument about Sizhui #because I really. don’t think Jiang Cheng is dumb enough to not figure out who Sizhui is #and he must have gone to Wangji like ‘you can’t just raise That baby in the cloud recesses are you fuckign crazy?’ #and Wangji is like ‘hmm well. i can and I will. actually.’ #and Jiang Cheng tries to argue that it puts both Wangji and Sizhui in danger to do so #and then Wangji says something INCREDIBLY hurtful about Jiang Cheng’s inability to protect his OWN loved ones #and Jiang Cheng is like alright fuck you I was just trying to help but if we’re #*we’re playing THIS game then you’re just trying to protect this kid because you feel guilty you couldn’t protect Wei Wuxian #and then they each say a few more of the most hurtful things they can think of and then they try to kill each other #and maybe demolish part of an inn in Caiyi while they’re at it. SORRY! WE’LL PAY FOR THAT
