"Heart" in Much Ado About Nothing

#couldn't stop thinking about how much the heart imagery is central in this play #the most reluctant and untamed organ #how benedick also describes himself of having 'a hard heart' #how beatrice gave him a 'double heart for a single one' #jesus christ how raw and beautiful and lovable this text is #much ado about nothing #much ado tag #Shakespeare

welcome back! unfortunately, the world has already moved forward.

#cqledit #Wei Wuxian #The Untamed #mdzs #myedit #wei wuxian re: being brought back to life against his will is one of my fave things to explore and go nuts about #the body horror of taking over a stranger's body. the feeling of being behind and still holding on to the past #which for you was just moments ago so it all feels so raw but for everyone else it's been over a decade so the time could heal the wounds #even if it still hurts them they had the time to process it all #the feeling of not having a say /whether you should be alive or not/ #it's all just So Delicious

yes yes sun and moon but what about the SUN AND SEA dichotomy

#i must rest ill finish this post later #i understand this is incredibly predictable for user val sodrippy odyssey pirate ocean girl but please. its so real. to me. #its ABOUT. two forces so raw and untameable and VITAL and lifebringing and UNCARING and immutable #and good god when they come together doesnt the world just light the fuck up. you understand????

what lan sizhui and jin ling represent to each other drives me up the fucking wall

you have lan sizhui, who represents what wei wuxian gave everything up for. he abandoned his family and station all to protect the wens, and after all of it, lan sizhui is the last one standing. (technically wen ning is there but. im counting him as a casualty). and on the other hand, you have jin ling, who represents everything that wei wuxian gave up. the chance to see his nephew. the chance to see jin ling’s parents. the lives of his parents.

and both lost everything over each other. lan sizhui lost his family because of jin ling’s. jin ling lost his because of lan sizhuui. they are so terribly intertwined. even if they had never met, they would still be connected by grief, and by wei wuxian.  by what they gained and what it cost. by the time they meet, theyve spent years carrying the weight of what the other lost, the weight of wei wuxian‘s decisions

#this stupid fucking series #i make a shitpost abt it and now i feel like this #this post makes no sense bc its too late at night #anyways this just makes that argument more painful because of course it's easy for lan sizhui to sympathize #and to not judge wei wuxian #but for jin ling wei wuxian represents everything that jin ling should have had but didnt #a mother #a father #a family #for him the wound is raw and festering #he paid the price for wei wuxian's good deeds #and lan sizhui gained everything from them #dkhgkjhjkdhgjkshjkdf #mdzs #cql #the untamed #lan sizhui #jin ling #wei wuxian #because he is so key to both characters' existences #mdzs meta #cql meta #clem's corner

When I was deep in a feverish haze all I could think about was Wei Wuxian's first illness post golden core transfer because cultivators never get sick so when wwx does for the first time he's absolutely awful at it.

Like he's walking around lotus pier trying to pretend he's fine but he's stumbling into walls and almost walks off the deck into the lake at some point. And of course everyone just thinks he's drunk or something cause cultivators don't get sick and wwx goes with it and laughs it all off, pretending he's hungover and absolutely fine, until he ends up shivering in bed until shijie brings him soup with a concerned look in her eyes he refuses to acknowledge.

When he gets better he cracks jokes and pretends it was nothing and hides his lingering cough in his sleeve.

With the Wens it's only a little bit better bc they do know about his core and Wen Qing is a doctor and can help him, but you see wwx can't lie down and rest how can he when there's so much he has to do?

He works as hard as he can, making sure to lift everything for granny even though his body aches and using all his energy to keep A-Yuan happy and distracted, in between moments of clearing resentment, all until he passes out in the middle of an empty path with no one around to see him fall.

Eventually Wen Ning finds him and carries him back wei wuxian wakes up to Wen Qing forcing some awful broth made of scraps of meat and yelling at him to go to sleep and rest. But of course the moment they're all asleep for the night he goes back to work. He can't rest there's no time, even as his head pounds and his body screams and the sickness eats away at his insides as the resentment does the same. There's no time for rest.

Post canon the first time Wei Wuxian gets sick he falls into a old habits and doesn't tell anyone, just continues puttering about and acting fine, distracting the juniors during their lessons and hanging off Lan Zhan's shoulders to tease him while he works.

But of course Lan Wangji notices the way his husband sways more than just with his usual dramatic swagger, and how he keeps shoving his favorite foods away saying he's not hungry as he rubs at his throat.

The final straw is when Wei Wuxian says he's too tired for their everyday but then plays it off as a joke at the look of concern Lan Zhan gives himso they do it anyways. And even tho Lan Zhan is tender and slow tonight Wei Wuxian still passes out from shear exhaustion before either have even finished

Lan Wangji has a moment of panic, thinking he broke his husband but then connects the dots...

When wwx wakes up he's smothered by their warmest blankets and wearing lwj's softest underrobe (because when A-Yuan was sick he liked to wear the robe too for the comforting smell and warmth). He looks around groggy and half asleep calling for his Lan Zhan, feeling bereft and confused.

He's about to get up and find him himself, even though the thought of getting up makes him feel dizzy when lwj comes back and glides to wwx's side with a bowl of congee that has just a hint of red in it. Wei Wuxian teases him about "there must be a rule about breakfast in bed Lan Zhan" and tries to get to his feet, but Lan Wangji pushes him down gently murmuring, "Rest, Wei Ying."

And suddenly its like the Jingshi has melted away replaced with the jagged stone walls of a familiar cave because Wei Wuxian you see he can't rest, there's things to do and people need him and he has to be strong he can't just rest he isn't allowed and what about the Wens he needs to get up he cant just lie here he needs to save them and he cant breathe and his head is going in awful circles and it feels like something is clawing its way out of him and he has to go do something and fix something, until Lan Wangji pulls him onto his lap and starts humming their song as he rubs soothing circles along wwx's back. And even though wwx's breaths are still coming out in terrified waves as his eyes dart around for some unseen threat, despite it all he starts to relax little by little to the sound of his Lan Zhan’s familiar baritone.

When he finally calms down enough he realizes he's been crying, blubbering like a baby leaving disgusting snot stains in the illustrious Hanguang-jun's robes and he tries to wipe them them away before Lan Zhan sees but lwj just holds his face between two hands with the most softesr care, his expression open and honest in a way it only ever is for Wei Ying, and he just keeps humming nonsense and nursery rhymes as he kisses wwx's tear tracks away. And tho wwx still can't stop crying lwj doesn't say anything, doesn't chide or lecture or tell him anything, just holds wwx and lets the smell of sandalwood wrap a comforting and warm embrace around wwx.

Eventually wwx does drift off and he comes to still huddled against lwj's chest, a lovely spot of drool right over his husband's brand and heart, as he reads a book about dual cultivation. It's past midday now and wwx asks about Lan Zhan's duties, fiddling with the edge of his forehead ribbon.

But Lan Wangji simply says, "Wei Ying is most important" and kisses his forehead and goes back to his book.

And Wei Wuxian burrows back into his husbands chest as if he tried hard enough he could carve a hole and bury himself besides Lan Zhan's heart forever, and pretends the flush he feels is from the fever.

They spend the next 2 days like that, with lwj guiding wwx back down to rest whenever the anxiety tries to make him feel bad and then comforting him through it all, kindly never pointing out the way every so often tears start to fall silently down wwx's face when he gets to thinking too much and even more kindly not pointing out the awful inelegant sound of wwx's honking wet coughs.

At some point Sizhui even visits, bringing an attempt at lotus rib soup using what Wen Ning remembers. It's not quite the same but it's more than enough and finally Wei Wuxian feels his shivers subside completely.

When Wei Wuxian wakes up on the 3rd day, well rested in a way he's never felt after being ill, he immediately jumps his husband and smothers his face in exuberant kisses that make Lan Wangji smile his special Wei Ying smile.

And although no one says anything Wei Wuxian knows deep within his gifted bones that from now on whenever he falls ill, there will always be someone to catch him.

#do i find it funny that when i shouldve been resting instead i was writing a threadfic about how sick wwx should be resting? #not at all #do as i say not as i do #mdzs #mo dao zu shi #the untamed #Wei Wuxian #wangxian #mdzs fanfiction #bushy writing #i might clean this up and add things to make it into a real fic im not sure yet #also i kinda like the fun of threadfics even though no one reads them because twitter is a broken app thats impossible for new writere to #get any sort of recognition or engagement unless they pay to be verified #its what ive learned and frankly very discouraging as someone who has a lot of ideas and really wants to share them with this fandom #i had way too many when i was sick and shared a bunch on twitter since i wasnt allowing myself to do actual writing #but i kinda like the rawness of threafics #its a fun way to just share a rough unpolished idea #anyways this is my silent plea to any who might be interested check out my twitter where sometimes i write nonsense like this in between #spam retweeting a bunch of pretty fanart

that last scene in fatal journey where nie huaisang has to support nie mingjue for him to keep upright, harrowhark's arc in harrow the ninth*, and the 'O, let me not be mad, not mad, sweet heaven/Keep me in temper: I would not be mad' line from king lear all break my heart in exactly the same way. that precise thread of the ultimate, hopeless vulnerability and confusion that's at the heart of madness -- of realizing in glimpses that you won't even realize how far you've drifted from yourself and that you don't know how to stop it, you can't stop it. that's such a core part of nie mingjue to me, and I don't feel like I've seen a lot of real discussion around it considering how central I think it is to his character.

*also like harrow, nie mingjue is both 'mad' (im mentally ill. I'm reclaiming it. sometimes that does feel like exactly the right word for it) and also like. severely haunted. by a sword even lmao. they've even got the 'crushing weight of shouldering the responsibility of their entire house given to them at way too early an age under horrifically traumatizing circumstances' same hat/same hat! thing going on here. omg. nie mingjue is like if harrow was a big sensitive jock who cries at the drop of a hat and harrow is like if nie mingjue was a small wet ratwoman who does bones and catholic guilt. but the core is basically the same. I can't believe I'm right about this.

#and jin guangyao and ianthe doing the clasped hand meme over mercilessly gaslighting and generally making everything worse for them! #I have respect for ianthe's grift but not jin guangyao's I only regret nie huaisang could only kill him once </3 #the locked tomb #the untamed #nie mingjue #nie huaisang #nie bros #I wish everyone in this particular fandom overlap a very 'I've connected the dots' except in this case I think I actually did lol #I've always had a hard time explaining why I love nie mingjue SO MUCH despite the fact that he's probably the most doomed person #in the entirety of mdzs/the untamed and also of course his hands are not clean (no one's hands are clean in that world) #but my raw horrified sympathy for him in that element is probably really central to it #he tried so hard!! he tried so hard #it's so funny in my liveblog of the untamed way back when you can see me imprint on him hopelessly just like IMMEDIATELY haha #I chose pain
