    Summary

    With a small change, Wei Wuxian has a chance to reconsider his stance. That change leads to others. The most important words you can say, after all, are thank you, and I am sorry.

    It is better to say them earlier, than later through tears.

    Yet another plot bunny yoinked from the plot bunny yard sale of batbusiness_schooldropout. Keep'm coming, I can do this all day. :D

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This fic made me cry as often as it made me chuckle. It deals with all of wwx's Big Feelings in an honest and sincere manner which ends up feeling very cathartic. The plot is good, but the characterisations are even better! The developing friendships, the individual growth, their interactions. It's perfect! Love this fic!

    Summary

    It is well-known that the resources offered by the great clans simply cannot be matched by smaller sects. The greater clans have the most renowned techniques and the best teachers. They have built their reputations over centuries, striving to be the best of the best. It is these clans that most young cultivators aspire to join, and so, they have their pick of recruits and are free to pick the best of the best. To anyone in the cultivation world, it is unquestionable that the great clans reign supreme.

     

     It is, thus, quite understandable that even Wen Ruohan— a man largely known for being arrogant and unflappable— looks surprised at the announcement that the first place in the archery tournament has been won by the Head Disciple of the Tingshan He sect.
    Or, Wei Wuxian is raised in Tingshan He. Some things change. Some do not.

    (Completed except for epilogue)

    Just imagine what life would be like if wei wuxian was raised in a sect that adored him AND so did the leadership. What if he wasn't being restrained and hindered by the pressure of being the best but not showing up the sect heir, where he wasnt being constantly berated, humiliated and punished simply for existing. There are many similar fics but this one has a special place in my heart bc if how sincere the He sect is in their adoration of wei wuxian. They picked up a kid when they didn't have the resources to do so willy-nilly, they raised him without a feeling of debt, and although his genius and prowess catapulted them to fame, they loved him for it before that happened. And the whole thing is told from an outsider's pov! We only see the SIGNIFICANT changes in wei wuxian's demeanour through the eyes of lwj and the others.
    The fic is perfect as it is 🩷

    “We rest in the shade of trees our ancestors planted.”

     

    They called the man in the ice Yiling Laozu, after a folk hero associated with the town in the foothills of the mountains where he was found.

    No one expected him to be alive!

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Okay so I just finished reading this and have it queued up to read again. There is so much AMAZING world building - especially in wwx's perspective- that you kinda forget that we haven't actually experienced someone waking up from the past. It almost feels like this story is 80% character development and 20% plot, and that is NOT a complaint. It's incredible! It did result in the climax happening very fast, but y'know what! It was cinematic!
    Really well researched and well written story!

    Summary

    Like a snowy mountain top in spring the residents of the Burial Mounds trickled down the mountain and joined the flow of society.

    “I went to the Burial Mounds,” Lan WangJi said.

    “Ah, yeah… I’m sorry Lan Zhan,” replied Wei WuXian, “I hadn’t thought anyone would come to visit. I am still not sure how it happened; I brought A-Yuan to Yiling to play by the river and then ended up somehow teaching a bunch of children swimming and writing along with him.”

    Fic is finished at 4 chapters and about 66,000 words.

    Summary

    At a discussion conference, Wen Ruohan sees a face that he'd thought lost to the impenetrability of Baoshan Sanren's mountain.

    He will not lose something so precious again.

    Not when being a Grandfather suits him so well, and his Grandson is as wonderful as Wei Wuxian.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Add this to list of best ever non jiang wwx!! 🥳
    Powerful! Incredible! Insightful!
    Usually non-Jiang wwx is when he's adopted into a different clan early on. But having his actual family still be alive and in the wen sect??? Wow!! But also... it makes sense?? Wrh was a cultivation genius until wwx defeated him, wen qing was a medical genius... there was definitely something in the water there!

    So definitely something I will be reading again!
