JIN LING HAS LWJ’S NAME WRITTEN IN BLOOD (“a-ling, that’s just red paint”) AND HIS PORTRAIT (“which you stole from my sketches”) IN HIS ROOM AND HE STABS THOSE EVERY TIME LWJ IS THERE (“my husband’s here pretty much almost all the time” “husband-to-be! you’re not yet married! you’re just 7!”)

- jl makes a list of “rules” that would make the lan clan proud and some of them are 1) hanguang-jun and a-ying aren’t allowed to be alone together (“the wordings on these rules are way too informal”); - 2) hanguang-jun needs to allot at least 5 feet between him and a-ying (“why are you sitting THAT close to each other??? i said at least 5 feet!!!” “a-ling, it is five feet; five baby feet” “a-ling drop that knife on your hand; a-ying don’t test your brother; a-cheng please refrain from giving your nephew things for stabbing”); - 3) before hanguang-jun does or says anything to a-ying, he must ask a-ling’s permission (“this is blatant bullying against my husband” “not your husband yet!” “don’t worry husband, i shall protect you” BUT THEN lwj looks at jl and says, “young master jin, i would like to say thank you to a-ying” AND EVERYONE JUST PAUSES bc why tf is THE hanguang-jun adhering to some childish rules??? and jl feels the rush of power and puffs up his chest and says, “you are allowed” and in the background wwx is loudly complaining about dying of blue balls if this continues on and amidst that jzx is screaming for mxy to stop teaching his kid all these stuff- i can imagine little jin ling trying to “look down” on LWJ (kind hard given that he’s way shorter lmao) while reciting his “rules” and LXC comments that the kind of attention and aura LWJ gives off is exactly the same (if not more intense) as when LQR was teaching them the Lan clan rules when they were children- JZX agrees with all the rules and wants to declare them a law (JYL had to stop him from getting the jin sect seal and stamp it on the pieces of paper that JL wrote on)- one time, wwx overhears and finds out that his future husband apparently has been waiting for somebody and is deeply in-love with this person and our little boy is distraught and then jl finds out AND OH IT IS WAR and jl is out for blood (“a-ling why are you putting red paint on your face” “this is war” “no really it’s okay i can’t help it if hanguang-jun is already inlove with someone else” “be quiet and stay here *grabs his toy sword* i’ll end it once and for all”)- jl declares a death match is in order (“how are you going to beat bichen with that sword??” “let’s go ask father if we can borrow his” — JZX doesn’t even know what’s happening but if jl is going to end second master lan from stealing their a-ying then sign him tf up and hands his sword)- (“alright everybody calm down. husband, get the sword back please. a-cheng, im adding the zidian to be refrained from being given to your nephews besides things for stabbing. a-ling and a-ying, there seems to be a misunderstanding here”)- OKAY THIS IS ENDING UP TO BE AN ESSAY IM SORRY I SHALL STOP HERE HAHHAHAA

HOLY SHIT SIGN ME TF UP FOR THIS!!!!!! ok no really this is amazing bc think of the possibilities

- JL absolutely adores his brother even if WWX always makes him cry (”a-ying, stop making a-ling cry” “but he looks so cute when his cheeks are red and puffy!!!” “why don’t i make YOUR cheeks red and puffy” “husband, please don’t threaten our children”)

- but does WWX have his memories or nah?? maybe let’s start with no then he MIGHT remember in the future years

- what if it’s a “secret” in the higher ups of the cultivation world about the truth behind wwx and they all silently agree not to reveal that to anyone to protect him

- both JL and WWX love their uncle JC while our resident uncle tries his best not to fall for any of the kids tricks - obv wwx influencing jl 

- the lans are regular visitor to koi tower - 1) lxc for jgy; and 2) lwj for you know who

- WWX was six when the discussion conference were held at the lanlingjin territory and he saw “the prettiest person ever” and ran up to him AND TUGS THE LONG FUNNY LOOKING WHITE RIBBON everybody freezes bc “jfc child wtfff that’s like the chastity of hanguang-jun” and jc’s like “this chaotic fckr doesn’t change ffs”

- JYL gently scolds WWX and wwx asks what’s so important about it and why is everyone’s faces looking like that (all the while munching on the ribbon - on the far corner, jc is having a stroke) and at first no one wants to answer but wwx WILL HAVE HIS ANSWER NOW and won’t shut up about it and LXC (bless his face) calmly tries to explain (”oh wow you’re pretty too” “thank you” “but i kinda like his face more” “A-YING!!!” “haha that’s totally fine”)

- so wwx doesn’t really get the whole explanation about “righteousness” and “control” but he does understand that the ribbon is for the future spouse so he turns to lwj again and declares “i’ll take responsibility!! wait for a-ying to grow up then let’s get married okay? okay!”

- JZX chokes on his drink (wwx or not, that’s HIS kid), JYL and LXC chuckle at the impudence, JC needs a break from this - then LWJ nods and agrees to almost everyone’s surprise AND IT’S ANOTHER ROUND OF CHAOS and jc is debating the merits of stabbing his eyes with the utensils in his hand then wwx turns to jc and “uncle! looks like i’ll get married before you do” (jc decides that stabbing wwx seems to have MORE merit)

- BUT JL HATES LWJ bc this person is stealing his brother from him and how dare he??? *cue jl and wwx as brothers cutie moments*

- wwx starts growing up and is constantly trying to get all sorts of skinship with his future hubby to which lwj expertly dodges the attempts bc he’s still a kid and nope not until he reaches the age of maturity (BUT WWX MAKES IT SO HARD ESP WHEN HE HITS HIS PUBERTY STAGE “a-ying what are you wearing” “clothes, father” “clo - THAT’S JUST YOUR INNER GARMENT” “yes well how do you expect me to seduce my husband if i wear too much clothing” “aasfkfakafla”)
