As typical for me, here's some new/lesser known The Untamed/MDZS fic recs:
a truth universal by curiositykilled (7k) Summary: “I’m going to say it,” Zizhen says abruptly.
“Please don’t,” Jingyi says, voicing Sizhui’s own unuttered thoughts.
“Why did no one tell us the Yiling Patriarch was so — so handsome?” Zizhen demands. (this post-canon fic about the juniors tracking down WWX is both is a little humorous and a little sad and deals nicely with some threads canon left hanging)
Brittle Steel Slicing Through by meyari (19k) Summary: Being dead was a weird, weird thing that Jin Zixuan wasn’t sure what to make of. But he was and he was helpless, so that was that. Until he wasn’t dead anymore. Instead his face had just made acquaintance with Wei Wuxian’s fist back at the lectures in the Cloud Recesses. Which changed everything. Especially because it gave him the time he needed to make things right one death at a time as a proper son of the Yu should. (Great JZX time travel fix it, love his POV and his way of dealing with everything)
only envy the mandarin ducks by glitteringmoonlight (4k) Summary: Some people are so lovely that wherever they go, other people cannot help but notice them. (outsider, and very appreciative, POVs of LWJ and WWX post-canon)
