For @missyriver, who seriously had me the minute they mentioned time loops. I will never turn down an excuse to write time travel shenanigans. This story kind of ran away with me, so I've had to split it into multiple parts, but I hope you enjoy it!

Unfinished Business

Like most things in Lan Wangji’s life, it begins with Wei Ying. They fall in together so easily, like it hasn’t been months before Wei Ying’s smile haunted more than his dreams. Wei Ying is ceaseless movement, chaos wrapped in skin and bone, threaded through with laughter. He’s so all consuming in his presence that Lan Wangji could probably be forgiven for not noticing the problem sooner. 

It’s early yet, the bleary gray of predawn creeping in through the window, beginning to chase away the shadows.There’s no real reason to be staring at Wei Ying, sprawled gracelessly across the room’s other bed. He’s obviously there, right where he was when Lan Wangji fell asleep, right where he’ll be for a few more hours if not forced out of bed before he’s ready. Knowing this does nothing to soothe the urgent whisper at the back of his mine, reminding Lan Wangji of how much time passed where Wei Ying was no more than a memory he cloaked himself in, unable to let go. 

There’s no reasoning with the dread that particular thought dredges up when he wakes up with it anchored to the pit of his stomach. Easier, then, to satisfy it, to look while Wei Ying is still near enough to look at. Lan Wangji allows himself to take a silent inventory of Wei Ying tangled up in the sheets. 

Enjoy your Valentine’s Day, @missyriver!

Hello @missyriver ! You’re most probably looking for this fic:

Life is Very Long by Vamillepudding (13K, Teen)

(Post-Canon, Misunderstandings, Protective!JL, Protective!JC, Comedy)

Wei Wuxian is a good for nothing, possibly evil, possibly fake uncle. But he's Jin Ling's good for nothing, possibly evil, possibly fake uncle. So it stands to reason that when Jin Ling starts to suspect that Hanguang-jun is mistreating his husband, he immediately recruits Jiang Cheng for a rescue mission.

hmm, let me think:

1. seeing that there was still cake left in the fridge

2. my guinea pig (always)
