Happy happy birthday 🎂🎉🥳
Are you still doing the “cursed identity porn” au where LWJ can’t really see the Yiling Patriarch (because the mask?), but still tries to settle into being married to him? (Or JC traveling back in time?) Thanks!
a continuation of 1
“Where do you want the talisman?”
Lan Wangji looks up from checking over his pack one last time to see his husband in his doorway. He lifts an eyebrow.
“I’m going to be wearing the mask but there’s no reason for the enchantment to affect you,” Wei Wuxian says. “You already know what I look like. I have to paint it somewhere on your body – preferably someplace there’s no chance of anyone else seeing.”
Ah. That explains why Wen Qing have never seemed to have the same problems looking at Wei Wuxian that everyone else did during the war.
Lan Wangji considers several locations before untying his belt and shrugging off several layers of robes, letting them pool at his elbows and leaving his chest bare. “Wherever you think is best.”
Wei Wuxian hasn’t so much as given him a covetous glance since their marriage. Lan Wangji can endure it, if he must, endure the lack of his husband’s affection and even endure the way he seems so willing to share it with others. He does not have the soft, delicate features and willowy body of Wen Ning, Meng Yao, or Jiang Yanli. But if nothing else, his place as the number two most eligible male cultivator means that he’s not without his charms.
If he is completely outside of his husband’s tastes, it’s best that he knows that now.
He braces himself for indifference, keeping his expression bland to ensure that Wei Wuxian can’t see how surely it’ll crush him.
“Oh! Uh, um, sure, great,” Wei Wuxian says, voice at least two pitches higher than it is normally as his eyes dart up then down several times, blood rushing to his cheeks and painting them scarlet.
Lan Wangji stares. He has seen Wei Wuxian walk across a battlefield and stare down sect leaders and be harassed by a dozen uncles at once and surrounded by three screaming children and never has he seemed as out of sorts as he does right now.
He lifts up the brush and hesitates. “Is it okay – do you mind if I, is this okay?”
“Yes. You can touch me anywhere,” he says.
Wei Wuxian freezes, blinking rapidly before he swallows. “Oh. Kay.”
This is the best day of Lan Wangji’s life.
His husband steps closer, curling one hand around his bare shoulder to keep him steady and using the other to make small, sure brush strokes against the skin of his left side of his chest, right above his heart. He likes the symbolism. He also likes how Wei Wuxian’s blush doesn’t fade at all.
“There,” he says a few moments later. “Just give it time to dry and it should be fine for a week or so, then I’ll have to reapply. “
“Thank you,” he says, quirking his lips up at the corners when Wei Wuxian finally manages to look him in the eye
His returning grin is blinding. His eyes fall lower twice more before he leaves and Lan Wangji feels the low hum of satisfaction down his spine that he normally only gets from a particularly difficult spar.
His husband is capable of finding him attractive.
He just has to somehow encourage this behavior.
Twenty minutes later Meng Yao sticks his head into his room and demands, “What did you do to him?”
Lan Wangji pauses. Is he upset that he’s gotten Wei Wuxian’s attention? He never seems to mind Wen Ning, but perhaps that arrangement has already been settled between them and he sees Lan Wangji as an intrusion, regardless of his status.
“This is hilarious. Whatever it was, do it again,” he orders before continuing his way down the hall.
With pleasure.

doing a bit of analysis on all of our current collected information for the cursed team just to sort it out in my own head
3 eggs were picked by the wheel spin.
Chayanne
Richas
Ramón
3 groups of eggs were formed, with the above eggs all separately sorted in them, and all got matched with different biomes
Snow: Chayanne, Leo
Savannah: Richas, Pomme
Jungle: Ramón, Dapper, Tallulah
But one egg’s accessory was found in the maze at the moment Protocol AB got activated: Dapper’s hat.
3 eggs sent message videos to their parents
Chayanne
Richas
Dapper
Dapper sent a message instead of Ramon, breaking the pattern of eggs that were picked by the wheel. Dapper’s message told his dad to win no matter what.
—
3 players spun the wheel.
Tubbo
Bagi
Carre
Tubbo broke in to spin it while the others were given an invitation to.
3 teams of players were formed, with the above members all separately sorted in them, and all got matched with different biomes just like the eggs did
Snow: Blue - Tubbo
Savannah: Red - Carre
Jungle: Green - Bagi
The egg war event happened, each team fighting to protect an egg statue with combined accessories that matched according to the groups the eggs were already in:
Blue: Chayanne, Leo
Red: Ramon, Dapper, Tallulah
Green: Richas, Pomme
You see what’s wrong here?
Richas and Pomme were matched with the Savannah, Red’s biome. Green fought for them instead.
Ramon, Dapper & Tallulah were matched with Green’s biome, the Jungle. Red fought for them instead.
All the other teams’ eggs swapped… except Chayanne and Leo stayed matched with the Snow, Blue’s biome. Blue was the only one that stayed the same?
—
Tubbo breaking in to spin the wheel despite not being allowed to. Dapper’s hat in the maze upon activation of Protocol AB, Dapper sending a message to his dad, who is on Blue team, insisting that he needs to win… Blue’s egg statue remaining unchanged despite the others switching- Blue is the outlier in every single situation.
q!Tubbo’s theory that there was never meant to be 3 teams in the first place, and by him spinning the wheel he caused Blue to be created is looking really interesting. basically everything points to soulfire being the cursed team
