Throwback Thursday Fic: "To The Dudes Who Can't Cook"

This week's throwback fic is part of a larger AU — the Untamed shitty mall AU some Slack folks and I came up with.

My contribution to the AU (together with my friend spacewitchbot) is To The Dudes Who Can't Cook, wherein Jin Zixuan asks Lan Xichen for some (extremely roundabout) help courting Jiang Yanli, and Lan Xichen gossips about it with the Nie brothers.

Summary:

Jin Zixuan works at the fancy tea shop, T2. As a manager at Williams-Sonoma, Lan Xichen helps a lot of customers, but this is his first time helping someone outfit a kitchen from scratch.

Throwback Thursday Fics: "into, around, through"

Today's TBT fic is a twofer of post-canon grieving/healing fics.

into, around through is a series of post-canon fics following Lan Xichen as he delves into, talks around, and moves through grief.

The first fic is my magnum opus: what I've failed I will not unknow / what has failed me is not yet unknown - a 10k word exploration of Lan Xichen in (and eventually out) of seclusion.

The second, We're all just stumbling through it, is a fic I wrote for a prompt that fit very well into that world. It's set several years after the end of the first fic, during a discussion conference in Gusu.

There will also, one day, be a fic set in between these two, a current work in progress about Lan Xichen's eventual reconciliation with Nie Huaisang.
