Fluttering wings

I visited a butterfly exhibit a while ago and I returned with brain worms.

This ficlet is a nod to one of my favorite chapters (Chapter 23) from one of my all time favorite fics, Ghost of Mine. I cannot recommend it enough, you guys give it a read, it's more than worth it!

A new chapter was uploaded just today, so go check it out!

Onto the ficlet!

A-Yuan had been raving about the butterfly exhibit to be displayed the local nature museum ever since he heard of it during a commercial break on the radio. Wei Wuxian had picked him up from school that day and, as they listened to music in the car - their little tradition to scream out songs to make the noon traffic more bearable - their favorite radio station played an announcement of an exotic butterfly exhibit temporarily taking a stop at the life sciences museum that weekend.

Given that butterflies happened to be the little one's favorite insects, and that Wei Wuxian could never tell him no when he used his widest, wettest puppy eyes, they arrived home with plans already set up for the next Saturday. It would be just the perfect way to spend the day together, pulling Lan Wangji into it as well - he had been working so hard lately, helping his brother run their family business after his long mental health break, that a day away from all those emails and phone calls could only be beneficial.

Expectedly, a lot of people had decided to spend their weekend the same way - so on the day of the exhibit, the queue was long and the spirits high despite the long wait.

The butterfly enclosure was a wide, glass greenhouse covered in vines and potted plants of varying sizes, as well as realistic branch twigs for the butterflies to hang onto. There were a few aquarium-shaped glass boxes for butterflies to rest in, fruit and fresh flowers awaiting them there. It looked magical, the way the colorful butterflies flitted about, dancing around the enclosure and around each other.

One of the caretakers noticed A-Yuan's starry eyes as he followed out the butterflies and handed him a large piece of orange.

"Hold this in your palm, and the butterflies will come to you." She said, with a smile. "The blue ones especially like citrus. They're called Giant Blue Morphos, because they grow so big!"

A-Yuan listened intently, and did as told, outstreching his palm for the butterflies to notice the treat.

In no time at all, a large, bright blue butterfly landed gracefully onto the orange slice, wings fluttering as if in excitement as it fed. Next to it, another species fluttered its wings to land, the black on them dotted with red and white markings.

"That is called a Red Admiral Butterfly." The caretaker explained. "This one and this Giant Blue Morpho specimen seem to have bonded, so where one is, the other is guaranteed to follow."

"Oh, just like baba and a-die!"

Lan Wangji's ears dusted pink as Wei Wuxian laughed. Indeed, just like them!

The butterflies flew away together a few seconds later and the caretaker showed A-Yuan where to place the orange slice for the other butterflies to find. Then, taken by the child's enthusiasm, she continued pointing out various species of butterflies to him.

"That one," she pointed towards a lone butterfly resting on a nearby branch, purple accents shining on its wings, "is called an Agathina Emperor. It lives in the Amazon rainforest, and it is our only purple colored butterfly. We are waiting for a female to be sent to us so he finally gets a girlfriend!"

"We also know of someone purple that needs a girlfriend." Wei Wuxian told Lan Wangji, who couldn't help a small laugh.

"And this one," the caretaker spoke as a light blue butterfly landed on her finger, "is a Northern Azure butterfly. He's one of my favorites, he's really social and whenever someone that's sad or upset in any way is around, he lands on their nose!"

The butterfly floated from the woman's finger on A-Yuan's, who took to admiring it intently.

"You can look around, take pictures and whatnot, enjoy the exhibit as much as you like! I have to go back to work, but if you have any questions, let me know!"

"Ok, thank you!" A-Yuan replied, very politely, earning a head pat from Lan Wangji in appreciation.

And so the woman returned to tending to the enclosure, while the family of three walked around, pointing towards the beautiful insects.

A shining flutter of wings suddenly caught Wei Wuxian's eye just as he was about to make a joke about uncle Lan Qiren being more like an old moth than a butterfly.

The little thing flew around Wei Wuxian, shining but transparent, like it was made of lace and sunlight. A closer look revealed it looking more like an origami butterfly, its markings spelling something unreadable. The butterfly then landed atop A-Yuan's head, batting its wings thrice, slowly.

Wei Wuxian blinked in the same rhythm, subconsciously and distant, faded images evoked in his mind - a dark plave, a tree stump, a child, a battle, a cave, a sword, please save him, I'm sorry and... thank you

There was a comforting hand placed onto Wei Wuxian's shoulder, and he recognizes it as his husband's, his voice soft though worried. "Wei Ying?"

He blinked away those images, the sounds ringing into his ears as they seemed to move further away until they became inaudible, and he shook his head as if to rid of them. "I'm fine, I'm fine... I just saw..."

But there was no sign of the odd butterfly that Wei Wuxian had seen, try as he might have to look for it. None of the insects flying about looked like it, and the little labels describing information about the species in the exhibit had no pictures similar to it.

Perhaps that wasn't a butterfly that lived there.

Perhaps it wasn't even a butterfly at all.

But whatever it had been, Wei Wuxian could only hope it found what it was looking for.

10 + 1 Wangxian Recs - Theme Myhical Creatures/Shapeshifters

I am currently mostly in MDZS (Mo Dao Zu Shi/Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation) fandom. And fully and wholeheartily shipping Lan Wangji/Wei Wuxian. And since I have collected 2000+ Wangxian bookmarks on AO3 I thought it was high time to pick out some of my favourite fics to Recommend. But since it is hard to pic just a few I decided to separate them into themes.

This theme is fics where either/both of Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji are some kind of animal or mythical creature shapeshifter/hybrid. Most common is Fox Wei Wuxian and Dragon Lan Wangji.

A Mother’s Curse (A Mother’s Blessing) by Eudoxia

https://archiveofourown.org/works/32194453

Summary:To avoid an arranged marriage, Lan Wangji places a curse on himself, one that can only be undone by his soulmate. He knows his family—particularly the elders—are upset about it, but Lan Wangji will not marry someone he does not love.Or, huli jing Lan Wangji curses himself to be trapped in his fox form until his soulmate comes along to free him. Enter, Wei Wuxian.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/28178061

Summary:Lan Zhan is glaring at him. That's probably fair.The last time they'd seen each other, Wei Ying had been digging through Lan Zhan's garbage. They'd made eye contact over the shredded bags, the week's trash scattered around him like stinky, oversized Lego.Lan Zhan's eyes had been wide with horror, and Wei Ying's had been equally wide with feigned innocence. He'd reached out slowly, maintaining the eye contact, and then flipped over the food waste bin full of onion peel and carrot skin as a distraction and slunk off into the night. Probably not his finest moment.-Modern AU dragon!LWJ meets fox!WWX.

Cultivation of the Pack by Midshipsman

https://archiveofourown.org/works/28481901

Summary:A modern werewolf AU: Cultivator clans are all werewolf packs, hidden from the mundanes but still fighting to keep the world safe. Years ago, the Yiling Alpha was defeated, his pack all slain, but now he has been summoned back into the body Mo Xuanyu, an omega from the Mo Pack.Now Wei Ying is alone, packless, an omega out on his own... And the full moon, with its erotic frenzy, is in just two days. Luckily, Wei Ying soon runs into someone from his past: Lan Zhan, an alpha and an old friend, who is more than happy to give Wei Ying his bite and welcome him into his pack—and his bed.

Lay All Your Love In Me by Dei_Starr (DeiStarr), DeiStarr

https://archiveofourown.org/works/27290881

Summary:Bunny!Hybrid Wei Ying and Dragon!Hybrid Lan Zhan sneak around Cloud Recesses in a clandestine relationship until they eventually get caught together. A hasty marriage is arranged to avoid any possible scandal.Since they aren't allowed to see each other until the wedding, Wei Ying is just grateful that they talked about all of the important things ahead of time - yes, they want to get married eventually so it won't matter if somebody catches them together; Lan Zhan will need to get Wei Ying pregnant with his eggs when they want to have children; Wei Ying is Trans Male, AFAB; etc.So it's not like there'll be any unexpected surprises on their wedding night, right?

come away, o human child by merelydovely

https://archiveofourown.org/works/30345987

Summary:“Who was it, shijie?” asks Wei Ying after a short silence. “Who was the dragon in disguise?”“The tall, serious man in white,” says Jiang Yanli calmly, unaware of the way she’s just torn the bottom out of Wei Ying’s stomach. “He was wearing a ribbon around his forehead. Otherwise I might not have made the connection.”Oh fuck, thinks Wei Ying. Lan Zhan is a fucking dragon?---Wei Ying is invited to visit the home of his enigmatic new friend Lan Wangji. It just so happens that Lan Wangji’s home is a mountain palace full of immortal water guardians who all seem to have extremely alien ideas about what’s appropriate in public.

These Mortal Treasures by ChilianXianzi

https://archiveofourown.org/works/31960087

Summary:"Is that something that Wei Ying would like?" Lan Wangji asks softly, carefully, "To be kept?"There's that fleeting, lost look in Wei Ying's eyes once more, and Lan Wangji thinks it's unacceptable - That Wei Ying had not felt welcomed in his own home, so much so that he decided to wander the world away from it. So much so that he is afraid that he would be unwelcome as well elsewhere.Lan Wangji barely stops himself from hissing, from letting the steam of his icy breath escape in the close air between them. He only vaguely remembers the Jiangs, a young Cultivation Clan barely a century old, but his disdain towards them feels ancient now in the wake of all this. How foolish of them, to simply let go of someone so bright, someone so unfailingly kind and giving.How convenient, for Lan Wangji's own gain.

破镜重圆 / love always wakes the dragon by lianhua_lianzi

https://archiveofourown.org/works/32380378

Summary:“So, let me get this straight,” Wei Wuxian said through a mouthful of egg. “You’re an immortal dragon. Your name is Lan Zhan, courtesy name Lan Wangji, whatever that means—you don’t look like a Wangji—and I’ve been feeding you and bathing you and telling you my most embarrassing secrets for the past month?” Wei Wuxian’s past life comes home to roost when he finds a dragon at his door.

wind and rain by hauntedotamatone

https://archiveofourown.org/works/32904709

Summary:Wei Wuxian is sent away to his death in order to save the sect that raised him off of the streets from a slow and painful end. He does not expect to find someone just as bound by obligation as himself.Summary:The very oldest citizens of Yunmeng, only two of them remaining, remember the last time that rain ceased to fall and the wind stopped blowing, and they remember well what finally brought it back.It’s in the Jiang Clan annals as well, but this particular secret is well kept.One hundred years ago, a great-great aunt of the current sect leader was sent up the mountain in wedding red.She did not return, but the rain did.So, there is nothing else to do.

Paths of Light and Darkness Converge by ataratah

https://archiveofourown.org/works/31952545

Summary:Everyone knows that Wei Wuxian died before the Sunshot Campaign even began.Everyone knows that the Yiling Patriarch is a huli jing, a trickster fox spirit, that practices demonic cultivation for nefarious purposes.Everyone knows that there’s no way a righteous sect, let alone the hidebound Lan sect, would accept the Yiling Patriarch into their clan....Everyone is wrong.Or, when the notorious Yiling Patriarch marries Hanguang Jun to save the Wens, nothing in the cultivation world will ever be the same again.

Fox breeding by Anonymous

https://archiveofourown.org/works/26724472

Summary:In theory, the malleable nature of a fox-spirit’s body made them the ideal partner for a dragon seeking to lay their eggs, it was really a wonder that there were no records of any match between the two clans. There was no precedent they could imitate for what they were about to try. Instead they would have to improvise, but Wei Wuxian was a master at improvising, and with his beloved husband at his side, there were no limits to what he could achieve.

Magic Carpet Ride by ariskamalt

https://archiveofourown.org/works/31419680

Summary:In a cave appears a dragon.Wei Wuxian, of course, gets fucked.

[the-bjd-community-confess]

Soooooo.... Is Spirit Doll's "HuanQuan" supposed to be a flex on RingDolls Wei Wuxian? Since he actually has slightly more resemblance to the Untamed actor than the Ringdoll has. Obviously it's not super close, but at first glance I really wondered if it was supposed to be Wei Wuxian from the LA. Especially with the Dizi in the promo pics. Specifically the Untamed, since neither looks much like the (one true) official design. (I prefer that one anyway, so Idc much about either doll)

[shin-uroborus]

I forgot I haven't posted WWX and JC's reploid designs in here rip. There's more in my dA, but I'm pasting in brief descriptions for you guys anyways. LWJ’s design can be seen in this post here.

If you want to ask me about the MDZS terms, ask ahead, or IM me. ovo

First comic re: LWJ’s/L-02′s earpieces

My attempt to adapt LWJ's pink blushy ears from the original MDZS novel in the end helped carry over the forehead ribbon (adapted into the headgear+earpiece+shades combo) being a sensitive object, albeit for a different reason.

LWJ was originally programmed to only glow in three colours like BioShock Big Daddies (WWX nicknamed him “Lan daddy” and it spread across the entire Far East HQ rip) but Madam Lan enhanced the lights to help express more emotions, linking it better with his electronic brain than originally planned. The other two lead scientists, Qingheng-jun and Lan Qiren were not expecting this. QHJ was fine with it, but LQR accepted it only grudgingly.

J-0WB/WWX was the only one who can get that kind of reaction/(flustered) pink glow from LWJ. After falling for him post-X6, LWJ's earpieces will reliably glow pink when he's in proximity with WWX.

The reason why LWJ's emotional parts were not turned off or removed despite him being a machine is because emotions will inevitably occur in creatures with enough intelligence such as humans, elephants, primates, and corvids. QHJ, LQR, and Madam Lan were concerned that if his emotional parts were tampered with, it will affect his intelligence and in turn his performance. This is why they resorted to education (like X's moral testing) to suppress his emotions. LQR was strict (being the only scientist between the three whose stance on reploids being "they're just machines") but QHJ was lenient and Madam Lan emphasized the concept of emoting when he can afford to.

The pic of the three MDZS reploids They’re meant as accompaniments to trivia. Will paste in bits and pieces. (For LWJ) Designed to be the killing machine to circumvent X's "feelings problem" (rip X, dude was just in the wrong workplace), L-02 was also given his own version of "variable weapons system" except it works more like Zero's various weapons. L-02's left hand can morph into weapons. It's mostly used for his sword Bichen, but can also be used for other weapons like drills or machine guns. I purely did this, at first, for the BioShock Big Daddy reference, though, coupled with his earpieces that (normally) glow like Big Daddy helmets. But then this takes on even more significance for his arc because he ends up replacing it with a tracking module called "Inquiry" for the sake of tracking J-0WB who goes MIA sometime during X6, despite the objections of the only one of his creators and guardians who survived Eurasia (LQR). His multiple weapons system will later be given to his successor, L-03 "Sizhui".

(For WWX) J-0WB/WWX doesn't just fight with his buster or bayonet saber. He is also proficient in item crafting and engineering, and had modified his buster to both be able to fire standard energy shots and various bullets to be loaded. In turn, he can craft bombs to either be thrown or loaded into his buster.

(For JC) Zidian is exported to MMX with no problems here, except without the ring form because reploids pull or morph their weapons out of nowhere anyway (see: Axl's guns.). For non-MDZS readers, Zidian is basically an electric whip that can exorcise spirits forcefully possessing one's body. But here in the MMX verse, there is no magic, so Zidian can't whip the virus out of the reploid, so it functions like a normal electric whip. 

WWX and JC After Doppler supposedly invented a cure for the Maverick virus (before X3 but after X2), the reploid industry boomed, leading to innovations left and right, including in China. One such laboratory in the innovation boom is the Lotus Pier laboratory, owned by Jiang Fengmian, who is also the lead scientist along with his colleague and co-owner Yu Ziyuan, who happens to be a prodigy. JFM has feelings for Cangse Sanren, who had unfortunately (for him) married his best friend Wei Changze. CSSR had also wanted to join in the innovation bandwagon along with WCZ, but they are laymen compared to JFM, who owns the laboratory; they have the skills, but not the money. JFM's feelings for CSSR (and his connection with WCZ) led him to incorporate them into his laboratory and even let them work on their project. Their project was initially planned to be a maverick hunter-type/combat model reploid, but JFM and YZY were already working on one such model themselves, which is J-02. A compromise was reached in which CSSR and WCZ's existing project is to be retooled as a support model and what combat faculties already in there will serve as some sort of "prototype" (i.e. they work on it but the experience from working on it will be used for YZY and JFM's project) for YZY and JFM's combat model. Because of this joint venture, CSSR and WCZ's finished reploid "Wei Wuxian" was given the serial number J-0WB. The relationship between JFM and YZY is strained. This is because Lotus Pier is a high-level laboratory which only accepted the best of the best, and YZY had to work hard to get to the top despite her being a prodigy, while JFM took in WCZ and CSSR based on his connections and feelings. YZY thus made sure that JC can outshine WWX so that she can drive the point home, and she also made sure WWX and JC are aware of the hierarchy between them, the former being the latter's subordinate. Well, both reploids are aware of it, but they don't really care. Their relationship turned into more like brothers than superior-subordinate. It helped that their older sister J-01 "Yanli" helped bridge the two of them together once they were placed in Far East HQ. However, JC couldn't help but feel a bit envious, because despite having lower specs, WWX was more well-liked and valued in Far East HQ; not just as a support unit, but also a combat unit, which was what JC was meant to be in the first place. In short, WWX surpassed him in every way except for specs. It was like JC was living in his brother's shadow instead of standing side by side. The scientists' treatment of each of them differ as well. While CSSR and WCZ supported both WWX (like a son) and JC (like a nephew), they're obviously closer with WWX. JFM was warm and more smiley towards WWX, while he was more stern with JC. YZY also constantly reminded JC to perform well as the "pride of Lotus Pier laboratory" and for WWX to remember his place as JC's subordinate. All of this made JC feel down, but WWX assured him that he will support JC no matter what and called the both of them "Twin Heroes" (to contrast L-01 "Xichen" and L-02 "Wangji" who were collectively referred to as the "Twin Jades"). It went well enough until X5 and X6... but that's for later.
