Wangxian Prompt/Self-fill Dump

MDZS Blind AU Pt 2

Wei Ying was not like anyone else he's ever met. The Omega listened closely as he told him stories or read to him, drew him into debates and theorized with him. When they were out on patrols, the Omega offered aid to everyone, never asking for repayment; only accepting the gifts when those they aided insisted. While he could not see the world like Lan Zhan could he saw the energies that flowed through the world. The Yin and Yang flowing like a pair of koi fish in a mating circle. never mixing but always in perfect balance. It would explain that despite his disability, Wei Ying had earned his place as the Head Disciple of the Yunmeng Sect. Jiang Wanyin did not allow anyone to disrespect his adoptive brother and often had to be held back by said male. Zhan grew to love Ying more and more with every moment they spent together in the library or taking walks. His uncle, who had been displeased at first because Wei Ying was mischievous, straightforward and open minded. It didn't help that when his uncle learned that he was the son of Cangse Sanren, the man had nearly Qi deviated, but now, seeing how much the calmer version of that woman, had brought his quiet nephew out of his shell, he could not be angry anymore. For the most part. Lan Huan absolutely adored Ying for drawing his little brother out and helping him bloom.

"I'm going to miss being here when we're done with our studies and I have to go home to Lotus Pier." Ying said one day as they sat in the field of gentians. "Though I will be glad to go home where it's warmer and the food doesn't taste like medicine all the time." He giggles, poking his tongue out cutely with a wrinkle in his nose not unlike a bunny.

"Will miss Ying..." He says without hesitation. "Will try to visit... Will Ying visit as well?"

"Of course! I will be sure to bug Auntie ZiZi until she throws me all the way here!" He throws his hands up as if he were flying in the air and then falling back to imitate how he will land in the Cloud Recess.

"Please do not." Zhan begs, taking him a little too serious. He has heard of the Purple Spider, she was a fierce woman and could cow even his bullheaded Uncle. If Wei ying harassed her enough, she really would throw him back here from all the way in Yunmeng.

"I'm only joking. Auntie would tie me up in warm blankets and put me in a wagon here. She's too worried about hurting me too seriously to actually throw me. ChengCheng on the other hand would get tossed like day old rubbish! He can handle it!" He laughs.

Zhan gives a soft huff, that is his laughter and Ying giggles, cheering that he made him laugh. Lan Zhan wished these days would last forever, this gentle peace and happiness. He takes Ying's hand, lacing their fingers together and Ying looks at his cheek, blinking confused.

"Zhan?" He wonders.

"This-- I love you, Wei Ying..." He says and the gasp Ying gives and his sightless eyes actually lock onto his and it feels like something slots into place between them.

"Re- really?" He whispers.

"Mm... Will always love Wei Ying... Lans only love once; it is a love so fierce and so deep, it is both a blessing and a curse." He tells him. "May I tie my ribbon around your hand?"

"Ye... Yes... I... I love you too, but I can't see... if we have children... I--" He starts, tears filling his eyes, but Lan Zhan kisses him softly, making him gasp in shock.

"Wei Ying need not see, I am your eyes, I will see them for both of us. Wei Ying will see them with his heart." He says firmly. "See them with his soul... See them in a way I cannot." He swears and it makes Wei Ying cry around another kiss. "Wei Ying need never fear..."

"As long as you are here..." He promises. "I love you so much.. you are too perfect..."

"No, Ying is perfect." He denies and kisses away any protest that might have cropped up...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

He should have known better than to hope the days of peace and happiness would last. The attack came late one night, He had stayed up past bedtime, working on his composition for Ying. Wangxian as its title. He had just worked out where Wei Ying could harmonize with him when someone burst into his room. He barely dodged the blow of a sword, rolling out of the way, kicking up Wangji and with a shrill strum, blasted the attacker out of the door. He holds onto Wangji as he grabs Bichen off her stand and runs out. As soon as he is out his door is when the warning bell finally sounds. But it is too late, there is fighting all over the place. He runs out of his dwelling and runs into his brother.

"Wangji--"

"Get the scrolls out of the library and run... NOW!!" He yells and it shocks his brother, but he nods. "Be careful, brother... We will meet again."

"Wangji... Xiao Ying!" He gasps recalling one of the few Omegas in attendance and would be vulnerable right now.

Zhan snarls, turning towards the fighting and bolts before his brother can stop him. He cracks the sheath of Bichen over a few skulls of the attackers, allowing the few Omegas to flee towards the evacuation tunnels with the children and Elders too old to fight. He sees his father for the first time in years standing beside his Uncle, but he does not stop to watch or say anything. His sole focus is getting to his beloved. It wasn't hard to for people to realize the gold and blue ribbon he wore every day of his life since he was old enough to not want to play with it had been replaced with a simple white one with a pair of red lotuses sewn into the ends.

His scared ribbon was tied into a braid that Ying asked him to make so he can know that he always has it with him. If anyone noticed that Ying sported the new hair decoration, they either kept quiet not sure how to feel or thought it was a joke of some kind. He didn't give two shits, his only focus was making sure no one who bore him ill will realized that Ying was his and tried to hurt him to get at Zhan. He arrives at the Lotus Pavilion where the Yunmeng Sect disciples were staying. The place was on fire and he does not remember screaming for Wei Ying and running into the building.

He pulls Bichen out and muttering a small release spell he sends out a wave of ice to clear a path. He calls for Wei Ying and hears his Omega crying in his room. He hurries in, bashing through the wooden doors and quickly grabbing his frightened beloved.

"Do not breathe...." He tells him as the smoke grows thicker. He banishes Wangji into his qiankun pouch and swings Bichen once more to clear the flames once more. His Omega has Suiban in his hand, his medicine and his qiankun pouch before he bolts out. He curses when the original path was engulfed in flames again, but then he sees Jiang Cheng, who is soaking wet to keep from catching fire and has a wet blanket with him. "Jaing Cheng!!"

"Lan Wangji-- Wuxian!! Shit... Toss him to me!!" He yells tossing the wet blanket to him.

He quickly wraps Ying in it, ignoring him asking what is happening, what he is about to do.

"Shh... trust me." He tells him before kissing him and then tossing him over the flames and into his fellow Alpha's arms. He waits for them to clear the path and then he is about to swing Bichen when burning beams land on him...
