Summary: As director of the secret Cloud Recesses Organization, Lan Wangji takes care of supernatural occurrences using his trained cultivators before the public ever learns of their existence. When the threat of an army of mindless vampires comes knocking at his door, he must rely on Wei Wuxian, an ancient vampire bound to his family, to save them all. A Hellsing AU. Kay's comments: I have absolutely no idea about Hellsing and I still thoroughly enjoyed this AU, so it's safe to say knowledge of Hellsing is optional! The story really had me at the edge of my seat and I loved how it all came together; the ending was very satisfying. Loved the juniors too! Excerpt: With a sigh, Wei Wuxian dissolves into a cloud of cawing crows. A mass of dark wings and black feathers surround Lan Zhan’s body in moments. Stray beaks pull at his clothing and hair while erstwhile claws catch in the weave of fine silk and scrabble for purchase on slippery wood. The long-haired man remains unmoved until a mischievous beak tugs playfully at a length of ribbon threaded through his hair. His interlaced fingers tighten and he glares. “Wei Ying,” he says gruffly. Wei Wuxian’s laugh sounds throughout the room as he materializes directly beside Lan Zhan’s high-backed wooden chair, his arms draping over the human’s shoulders. “C’mon,” he drawls. “You don’t have to be all serious and director-y when it’s just the two of us.” Lan Zhan shrugs off the vampire’s touch. “I will not repeat myself.”
