    Summary

    Lan Qiren would like to not be in this situation. There are too many absurdities to contend with at the same time, and Lan Qiren is determined to blame every last one of them solely on Wei Wuxian. Among aforementioned absurdities, in no particular order, are:

    A loudly braying donkey.

    A surprisingly even louder Lan Jingyi, wrangling said donkey while making a valiant yet futile effort to avoid swearwords – both of which Lan Qiren intends to reprimand him for as soon as his life returns to some semblance of sanity.

    The entire fact that said donkey requires wrangling in the first place due to the ill-advised end-goal being to transport the animal via sword.

    The fact that this means that Lan Qiren is left to wrangle the demonic-cultivating, donkey-owning, exonerated menace of the entire cultivation world in general and Lan Qiren’s existence in particular, Wei Wuxian.

    Yes, this is all Wei Wuxian’s fault.


    Or: Wei Wuxian is injured on a night hunt, and Lan Qiren is stuck having to deal with it.

    Summary

    “I’m not here to help you with your work,” said Lan Zhan, injecting frost into his voice to deter any further attempts at charm. “I’ll be focusing on my research.”

     

    Wei Ying cocked his head. “Research?” he said.

     

    “Mm. I’m a cultivation researcher, not a department employee. I’m reconstructing the ancient musical cultivation techniques of the Lan clan.”

     

    ___

    Lan Zhan’s new liaison at the Caiyi Municipal Cultivation Department is an enigma – ridiculously talented, yet somehow content with mopping up spiritual pests for barely above minimum wage. Wei Ying is slapdash and irresponsible, and Lan Zhan doesn’t like him at all… but then he meets A-Yuan, who loves music and longs for a piano his father can’t afford.

    Forced into cautious friendship by a four-year-old's music lessons, Lan Zhan soon realises Wei Ying is more than he seems. The single father is a man of many secrets – including, perhaps, the key to Lan Zhan's life's work. And in the meantime, the background resentment in Caiyi Town is rising to dangerous levels…

    Summary

    Harry Potter is used to headaches. When he was little he would get one every day. All he had to do was blink, and it would be gone.

    ————-()————-

    “Are you feeling alright, Harry?”

    The room looked weird. Harry felt weird. He stared at his professor blankly. It was hot in here. He felt like he was floating.

    “Harry?”

    Hermione put her arm on his shoulder. He turned to look at her. Swallowed the blood in his mouth. He felt so strange.

    Don't worry, he wanted to tell her. I'll blink and it will all be over.

    His mouth didn't move.

    And then he blinked.

    Summary

    Wei Ying cries out as he’s thrown to the ground like a ragdoll. His head smacks on the rocks, and static colour swarms his blurry, darkening vision. He arches for the breath that was punched out of him, but a weighty claw settles on his chest, slamming him back down, and he heaves short gasps as he’s crushed, trying and failing to push the beast off. It’s like striking a wall.

    And then, pain. Pain, nothing like it.

    Teeth sink into his arm, and he screams as he feels his tattered bones, shattered, unhealed from the fall , grind together like gravel.
    ---
    But how was that possible? The Mor’du goes after non-cultivators and the weak. Arguably, Jiang Yanli was the weakest of the crowd. It should have gone for her; instead, it attacked Wei Wuxian.

    Wei Wuxian, who is supposed to be the strongest cultivator on the mountain.

    Or: A big mean monster attacks Wei Ying, and secrets emerge.

    Summary

    After a terrible curse leaves Harry irrevocably injured and unable to continue as an Auror, he takes a position at Hogwarts as the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. Unfortunately, he's not the only alum on the faculty: the Potions professor is none other than Draco bloody Malfoy. It's bad enough that Harry and his old nemesis are to be colleagues -- it's even worse that Harry's expected to rely on Malfoy for the pain-relieving potions that keep him going. But perhaps most difficult of all... has Draco bloody Malfoy actually become maybe kind of decent? Maybe?

    And why do all the students seem to think they're dating???
