<blockquote>Seven Necessities. Seven Tenths Full. What makes a meal, and what makes a family.</blockquote> ➤ A story told through encounters with food. Suffused with deep feelings, both the pleasure and the pain and the longing (both for what cannot be and for what, in the end, can be). It's beautiful.

<blockquote>It had been shaping up to be a really lovely party, and honestly, quite a nice cultivation conference in general. Instead, his last surviving brother was exchanging polite bows with Jin Rulan, and Nie Huaisang was going to spend four days on edge.</blockquote> ➤ (JGY is a character in absentia, not actually present in this fic) ➤ augh (complimentary)

<blockquote>Wei Ying hiccupped a bubble of blood out of his mouth, and he shifted on the sword, sending a swift terror through Lan Wangji. He pinned Wei Ying mercilessly close, tightly enough he could support Wei Ying’s entire weight even if his feet left the steel. Wei Ying had closed his eyes on the cliff at Nightless City and let himself fall back. Lan Wangji’s heart had leapt out through the wall of his chest. Lan Wangji had stopped him, pulled him forward and thrown down a teleportation talisman and swept him away. He would not, could not let him slip through his hands now. / Wei Wuxian survives, goes into hiding in Cloud Recesses, and Forest Gumps his way through the events of the timeskip, which alters their course.</blockquote> ➤ author tags this "this AU is gentler than canon but isn't a complete fix-it" which...yup. But also the author's inspiration was wanting Jin Rusong to not die!
