Hey Nonny! I have few offering for you.

the mouse was the only proof the field existed By xfrinz

A-Ying first saw Uncle about six months after Mama and Papa had disappeared.

Wei Ying meets Uncle after his parents are already dead, and he's half-dead, too. There's something so sad about Uncle, some indescribable, all-consuming depression that almost scares a-Ying.

Almost.

ghosts do not speak of lies and truth by LunaChi_KuroShihone

Wei Wuxian was no man any more.

He had stopped being a man the moment he'd fallen to his death at Wen Chao's hand, down, down, down into the Burial Mounds where the screams of the dead echoed through the river of corpses.

Here’s some What Happened in the Burial Mounds fics for you, nonny:

"No." It was a silent hiss, barely heard over the wind, but Lan Wangji glanced over to Sizhui, their A-Yuan, looking positively murderous as he was leaning on his guqin in exhaustion, a shallow cut on his forehead still bleeding slightly and staining his ribbon red. "Respect, senior, but you will not go after Senior Wei."

Wei Wuxian was no man any more.

He had stopped being a man the moment he'd fallen to his death at Wen Chao's hand, down, down, down into the Burial Mounds where the screams of the dead echoed through the river of corpses. The impact of his fall had well and truly killed him then, shattering his bones and breaking his body apart as he lay there, empty eyes staring at the clouded sky. Something inside of him had snapped then, as raindrops fell onto cool skin in red droplets, his head lolling to the side and coming face-to-face with the mangled remains of some black-clad cultivator, and Wei Wuxian had broken down and started sobbing, his ribcage protesting as his lungs were being hacked up, and then he'd started laughing relentlessly when the pain had gotten too much.

He hated, hated, hated Wen Chao -!

“New plan,” Wei Wuxian said. “Lan Zhan, wait for my signal.” Without waiting for a reply, he ran over to the phantom attraction flag and slapped it on his chest. Instantly, the corpses turned toward him. He heard his name called in the background by many voices, but did not care for their concern. He took out Chenqing and began to play.

Or: after falling into the Burial Mounds, Wei Wuxian's broken body is "repaired." He discovers the secret to demonic cultivation, and the answer to Lan Qiren's question. Years later, on a night hunt, he reflects on his learning.

A second later, his thoughts were cut off by a terrible loud noise. The noise of something - or someone - hitting the ground with an incredible force. Lan Wangji freeze for a second, the familiarity of the place suddenly making sense in his head. That awful sound that he had imagined so many times could only have happened in two occasions, the Nightless City, or… Burial Mounds.

(Or, on a night hunt, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji go back to the past, on the three months that Wei Wuxian went missing, and Lan Wangji see what truly happened in the Burial Mounds.)

“Lan Zhan, you’re too soft on me!” scolded Wuxian, trying to keep his face from turning red for some reason. “If I come back to Gusu, you have to promise to tell me if I’m cramping your style.”

“Very well,” agreed Lan Zhan, with (Oh be still my heart, thought Wuxian) an actual, honest-to-goodness smile. “I too have a condition before I take you home.”

“Oh yeah? What’s that?” he said, twirling his flute and trying to pretend his heart hadn’t skipped a beat at take you home. Lan Zhan was still holding his arm.

“You won’t force yourself to stay one moment beyond your inclination.”

Wuxian laughed, feeling giddy. “As if I would! No, Lan Zhan, you’ll be dying to get rid of me long before it comes to that.”

“Hm,” disagreed Lan Zhan.

Wei Ying goes back to Gusu with Lan Zhan instead of going walkabout, much to Lan Qiren’s dismay. But will they ever act on their hidden mutual attraction? Does a bunny poop in the woods?

Lan Wangji was not delusional. He knew Wei Ying was dead. The sharp stab of hope had spread out and dulled.

But there was something firmer than hope, firmer also than fantasy, which he would not leave behind. Even if Wei Ying was gone and would never come back, nothing would take his place in Lan Wangji’s heart. He thought about that occasionally, when he glimpsed the moon through stark branches on a forest trail, or when he felt drowsy and distant in the seat of honor at banquets.

It was simple. He would always love Wei Ying.

Over 16 years, Lan Wangji’s faith is rewarded as rumors solidify: The Yiling Patriarch survived Nightless City and became a powerful sect leader in a distant land.

Hi nonny!

“I’m surprised you aren’t fleeing for your life right now! Most others would, knowing what I am.” Wei Wuxian comments, and it would seem like a warning if not for the upward twitch of his lip.

Lan Wangji shakes his head, and settles back into a comfortable position. “Nonsense.” He says, easily. “Told you. I'm not worried, Wei Ying.”

-

Or; Lan Wangji gets stuck in the Burial Mounds, a known fairy haunt. The experience isn't really what he expected.
