I love how Post-Canon, Lan Wangji is just always silently moving Wei Wuxian closer to him like he doesn’t want to be apart from him even an inch. He cherishes him so much.

A few examples

He also discovered that Lan WangJi’s table seemed to be a lot nearer to his than before the banquet started. It was like it’d been shifted stealthily. - Banquet
He tightened his arms slightly, hugging Wei WuXian even closer - Dawn till Dusk
Fifteen minutes later, Wei WuXian who had almost fallen asleep was picked up and put into the wooden tub. The tub was placed right beside Lan WangJi’s desk. - Dawn till Dusk
Lan WangJi glanced at him before suddenly hauling Wei WuXian over, onto his legs. His voice was calm … Lan WangJi lifted him a bit so that Wei WuXian sat higher and the two were closer - Intrusion

drives me crazy when the mdzs fandom still doesn’t understand wwx is just as obsessed with lwj as lwj was with him. dare i say moreso. how am i STILL coming across fics/meta where wwx is dating people after having met lwj. any attempted relationship would end after 2 hours cause he’s incapable of going 15 minutes without talking or thinking about lwj. even if he actually tried going on a date it would be like. he’d sit down sigh and his date would ask what he was thinking about and he’d say i invited lan zhan here last week but he rejected me :(((((( and i was so sincere :((((( and then they order food he’d start smiling to himself and they’d be like what’s up and he’d be like “ahahaha i’m imagining trying to get lan zhan to eat this dish!!” they walk around outside and he grabs a cute little trinket from a market stall and the date is like oh :)) and wwx would be like this is so silly and cute i’m gonna hide it in lan zhan’s bag and see his reaction. pre meeting lwj maybe there is a slim chance but after he sees that :| face it’s over for anyone else

… he claimed to be genuinely surprised when, in March 1956, he received a letter from one Sam Gamgee, who had heard that his name was in The Lord of the Rings but had not read the book. Tolkien replied on March 18:

Dear Mr. Gamgee,

It was very kind of you to write. You can imagine my astonishment when I saw your signature! I can only say, for your comfort, I hope, that the ‘Sam Gamgee’ of my story is a most heroic character, now widely beloved by many readers, even though his origins are rustic. So that perhaps you will not be displeased at the coincidence of the name of this imaginary character of supposedly many centuries ago being the same as yours.

He proceeded to send Mr Gamgee a signed copy of all three volumes of the book. However, the incident sparked a nagging worry in Tolkien’s mind, as he recorded in his journal:

For some time I lived in fear of receiving a letter signed ’S. Gollum’. That would have been more difficult to deal with.“― J.R.R. Tolkien: A Biography

The scent of sandalwood stirs up emotions for Wei WuXian and it's just so cute!

The chapter where WWX is left alone in LWJs living quarters the jingshi, after being dragged to the Cloud Recesses, is one of my favourites. I think a lot happens in this chapter in terms of WWX's emotions and his feelings for LWJ begin to truly surface once more.

Chapter 11:

The refreshing scent of the sandalwood was cold and clear. Although it wasn’t sentimental, it had its own way of tugging one’s heartstrings. With nothing to do, he started to think random thoughts, Lan Zhan happened to smell like this scent. His clothes were probably tinged with the fragrance when he was practicing his guqin or meditating here. After these thoughts, he couldn’t help but to shift closer to the incense stand at the corner.

There's something about the scene that makes my heart flutter. It's such a small little thing, but I find it so poignant. Although sandalwood isn't something WWX could associate a memory to at first, he can't quite understand why it is stirring up his emotions. His thoughts then lead to LWJ, as he realises that he smells like sandalwood also. The fact that the scent of sandalwood can evoke such a feeling in WWX is so sweet. I feel like his heart ached slightly as he subconsciously remembered smelling this fragrance on LWJ in his first life and it made him feel a little sad. Calling up the deep-rooted feelings he actually has for LWJ and the lingering sadness, tinged with regret that he subconsciously has for not acting on his true feelings in his first lifetime. As I've said before, MXTX is a master at saying so much, with such few words.

I love how in denial WWX is at this point. He has very clearly been moved by the fragrance, but then goes on to say his mind only wandered to thoughts of LWJ because he had nothing else to do... Who do you think you're kidding Wei Ying!? Again, just as he thinks about LWJ, he is drawn nearer to the scent because his true feelings are surfacing once more and his desire to be close to the scent that awakens such feelings, and in turn LWJ himself, is involuntary, calling from deep within. Sadly his thoughts are soon distracted by the loose floorboard and the hidden booze!

read FMA and have become fully fascinated by Van Hohenheim. Genuinely has there ever been a better immortal character. His combination of invulnerability & low self esteem means he has about zero self-preservation instinct and will just let people knock him flat including his own 15 year old son.

His entire deal is that he became superpowerful by convincing 500000 ghosts to talk about their feelings but he's too nervous to talk to his own two sons because he thinks they don't like him. Which to be fair, they do not. but cmon dude.

Never getting over baby a-Yuan clinging to LWJ’s leg while all those villagers scolded him for being a shitty parent/tried to offer parenting tips and he was like “no you don’t understand he’s not my kid, I’m not his dad”

Then Wei Wuxian was like “He’s my son! I gave birth to him myself!”

And Lan Wangji was immediately like “Oh okay I guess he IS my kid and I AM his dad and now I am going to buy him Every Toy because it is my right as his father to spoil him.”

“i used to live there” is such a sad phrase. seeing places u used to live in is an odd thing. It’s like ‘i know where the best hiding place is in there. my bedroom was the one directly to the left as you walk in. i took my first steps on that flooring. i used to play in that yard with my grandma. she died two years ago. that was the only place i ever knew. those walls contain all of my childhood memories. i can no longer go there, but i know every corner like the back of my hand.’
