    Summary

    "It's this thing," Xiao Zhan says. "With Yibo. It's—I can't explain it, not really, but I can't stop telling the truth when I talk to him." It sounds absolutely insane as he says it.

     

    "Hm," Xuan Lu says, not sounding as surprised as he'd expected. "And you think that's a...curse?" Her tone is carefully neutral.

     

    Or, while filming The Untamed, Xiao Zhan finds he can only tell the truth. It causes some problems.

    Summary

    Look, it wasn’t like Wei Ying meant to get so deep into the lie.

    He'd started out by simply saying ‘sorry, I’m taken’ when anyone asked him out.

    He hadn’t really been expecting to have to answer follow up questions from his co-workers like: ‘Is it serious? What do they do for work? Do they live in town? How did you meet? What are they like?’

    Wei Ying did not have a great memory for things outside of engineering and product design, so there was absolutely no way he was going to be able to keep his story straight if he really just made everything up.

    He'd just needed a… a mental model of what a potential partner for him could be like. So his brain had pulled up the memory of a guy in college that he'd always vaguely thought that—if he ever did settle down with someone—it would be like him.

    He possibly didn’t realize just how far things had snowballed until one day when one of his colleagues said:

    “Hey! I was talking to my cousin the other day and she actually knows your husband. Small world right?”

    Summary

    Lan Zhan has been in love with his best friend for nearly a decade and despite his attempts, has never managed to confess. Now that Wei Ying's lease is almost up, there's a chance he'll be moving in with him soon, and Lan Zhan isn't sure that's something he'll survive... The impending stress leads to a drink, which in turn leads to a desperate Reddit post that goes viral and attracts attention and advice from... well, none other than Wei Ying, resulting in a series of failed attempts at getting Wei Ying to realize just how Lan Zhan feels about him.

    Summary

    It's Lan Zhan, standing tall, his hand gripping his sword. Has his hairpiece gotten even more elaborate? Or has Wei Wuxian just forgotten how stately it is? He's at the forefront of the group of Lan cultivators and if the pulsing darkness pushes Wei Wuxian's eyes away, then Lan Zhan draws them like there's nothing else worthy of looking at.

    Wei Wuxian shakes his head at himself. He's been on the road too long. He's thinking in lines of poetry.
