So I saw this post. And instead of drawing Wangxian or anyone else who’s actually mentioned I drew my darling boy Jiang Cheng taking care of his Pokémon,

Thinking about how children of Hades’ flaw is holding grudges because that’s where their power resides: the deceased, whose regrets and grudges from their past lives forever remain deep and strong.
to wwx’s immense chagrin they’ve unfortunately Unionized™

There must be at least someone in the south that think of them as lovers, build a temple based on that idea. There is no way no one ships them

Day 11 "Sparring"
where in nhs hits the husband jackpot and he’s even more shameless about it than wei wuxian
went into a fugue state and had to draw some Jiang Cheng and his cub
One funny scenario that came to my mind is that when Jin Ling finally becomes a full-fledged sect leader, and gains some self-confidence and pulls the Jin out of the swamp Menu Yao pushed it in...
And then he has to deal with Huanguang-Jun as the Chief Cultivator. Fuck that.
Others may respect the man and his "righteousness" but Jin Ling knows what sort of a petty gremlin the man is. Can still be. And he knows that Lan Wangji has the political acumen of a footstool. And still has it out for anyone who ever slighted his idiot husband.
Jin Ling has no time and patience to deal with that. He cannot make waves or go against the man, his position is barely stable after all, but Jiujiu raised no bitch and Xiao-shushu raised no idiot.
Thus, when Huanguang-Jun pisses him off to much, Jin Sect Leader sends a polite letter to the Lan Sect Leader requesting the return of all the loans the Jin has issued to Gusu Lan since the war. After all, they were marked as "loans" in the official paperwork and the understanding they don't have to be returned only existed between Lan Xichen and Jin Guangyao, the terrible criminal. One could say that the money was, gasp, mishandled by the man, as none of the sect elders signed off these loans.
That was really a lot of money, and Jin Rulan had a project in mind to build some orphanages and needed liquid funds. Urgently.
Say what you will about Jin Guangyao, but his bookkeeping was impeccable, and Jin Ling had bunches of receipts at the ready.
Also, there were these 200 spirit nets Huanguang-Jun destroyed five years ago. These weren't cheap. As they were Jiang Sect's personal gift to him, Jin Rulan would like to be reimbursed for the loss. As soon as possible.
Yes, he was aware that Gus Lan didn't have such amounts just laying around and trying to organise them may as well bankrupt the sect. Isn't that a pity. He feels for them, truly. But money is money and one needs to keep an eye on their assets.
Of course, he'd be amendable to forgetting some of these debts if properly motivated.
Say, Jin Rulan would be willing to let the matter go if, for example, the Chief Cultivator kindly fucked off.
