Summary
["June stopped by at lunch; she showed me a delightful channel called Hallmark, which repeats the same story every hour after they swap one round of white, straight, small-town conventionally beautiful actors for another. It was entertaining.”
“June and I used to play a drinking game with those. Take a shot every time someone goes ice skating, sledding, or leaves the big city for their tiny hometown.”
“Good lord, you must’ve been sloshed in the first ten minutes.”]
***
On December 4, 2021, an attempt is made on President Ellen Claremont's life.
Alex gets shot instead.

Incredible!!! Makes me cry every read.SPOILERS
Love these bits sm:
"and I am dying slowly as you sprint before me.
Slow down, Alex. God, please, please, slow down."
[That’s the problem with the bullet, they keep telling me, it went inside you but it never came out. It found a home in your heart and lodged itself there. Perhaps that’s why I feel so wretched, now, so detached and surreal. I’ve been displaced from my home.]

Summary
It has been three years since they were outted and Henry and Alex have finally settled into a groove that works well for them, except for the fact that it feels like they're always having to steal time together. Queen Mary constantly coming up with excuses to get Henry out of public events with Alex isn't helping, and Alex is done with it. After a long conference in Tokyo that Henry couldn't attend, Alex's flight home being delayed is the last straw and he calls Henry to say they need to figure out a better way to do this, to which Henry agrees. But fate has other ideas. Alex's flight goes missing somewhere over the Pacific, no trace of it to be found, leaving Henry and Alex's family struggling to not lose hope while unable to do anything.

Alex is on a plane that gets strangely hijacked and he steps up to find a way to survive. Well-written, angst, panic. Ticks all the hurt/comfort boxes. SO GOOD!! -

Summary
“Just do what you can, Senior Wei!” Sizhui whispers. “We’ll be right here!”
“Yeah!” Jingyi says. “And just remember: it’s going to be a disaster either way, so it’s not like there’s much you can do about it!”
(Or: Lan Wangji and Jiang Cheng plan a discussion conference together. It goes about as well as Wei Wuxian expects.)

wangxian, post-canon.
Jiang sibling angst. wwx tries to keep peace between lwj and jc and inadvertently makes things worse.
Great writing, very engaging setting. The tense scenes keep you on your toes. misunderstandings galore. petty lwj. the whole package. -

Summary
“You know, you’re the one to beat this year,” Jiang Cheng offers helpfully, having seen the glare from right next to him. “Hanguang-jun’s been through juniors with the rest of us, he knows all of our tics. You’re an unknown variable, since he’s never competed against you before.”
“Thanks,” says Wei Wuxian drily. “That’s very comforting.”
Or: five nighthunting competitions where Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji were rivals, and one where they weren't.

wangxian, au.
Basically hunger games but with cultivation + modern streaming services. Includes media/outsider pov (also they don't fight to the death, but can "timeout")
Pining, parallels canon. Great world building!! -

Summary
Fuck, he had totally walked into a set, hadn’t he? The beautiful, ethereal looking actor in his period piece outfit was pissed and waiting to tear him a new one, if the expression was any clue.
One moment the man was up, and then, the next second, he had gracefully jumped from the wall in front of Wei Ying, who, only by the strength of his will, did not scream in alarm.
He did yelp a little. But very manfully.
“No entry after sunset,” said the man, and his voice was deeper than Wei Ying could’ve guessed. “How did you get past the wards?”
or, modern!wwx takes a wrong turn and ends up in the cultivation world

wangxian, au.
Modern!wwx travels to the canon past and is stuck there. lwj is smitten and flustered.mild spoilers
Also plot twist, there are some people who exist in both realms, so much shock for everyone. Except wangxian because universe literally had to bend to get them to meet as they didn't exist in each other's timelines
they end up travelling between realms in the end, much feels.Additional extras (next work) are also lovely
