    Summary

    Wei Ying gets off his stool and kneels in front of her to show her his phone. “Look,” he says, tapping on one of his dating apps. “I think you should try one of these for a few months before we speak any further about - uh - mystical options.”

    “Oh,” she says, leaning back and pulling at the string around her neck to pop on her glasses. “My, my.”

    “Have you had a go before?” He asks her, kneeling back on his haunches, pleased with himself.

    She shakes her head, peering at the app, and so he hands his phone over.

    “Have you had much joy with it?” She says, frowning as she swipes through the profiles.

    Wei Ying suppresses a wince. In truth, it’s been hopeless. “Just haven’t met the right girl yet,” he says. “It’s been fun though - and certainly not boring.”

    She looks up at him and he grins back, nods at her encouragingly.

    She moves her head back and forth. “Well -,” she says.

    “My job -, you know -,” he says. “It’s sort of hard to explain to a prospective partner.”

    She nods a bit too quickly, Wei Ying feels.

    Summary

    “Hey, that guy.” He points with his chin, and Nie Huaisang’s eyes widen when he catches sight of the black-clad figure in the DJ booth.

    “Oh, shit, it’s Lan Wangji.”

    “So I’m not going crazy? It’s actually him?”

    Wei Ying hasn’t seen Lan Wangji in years, and now here he is, and looking like that, like this, like the dark deity of some starkly gorgeous underworld.

    ***

    (Or: Wei Ying thinks goths are kind of funny, until he runs into San Francisco’s premier goth club DJ, Lan Wangji.)

    Summary

    The reception hall windchimes tinkle an arrival; in hindsight, Wei Wuxian thinks they’re laughing at him.

    He straightens up from behind the front desk, where he’s stocking buckets of live fire-ants for the discerning phoenix owner, and chirps, “Wei Wuxian’s Magical Menagerie – how can I help you today?”

    Wei Wuxian runs a vet clinic for all sorts of exotic specimens. Lan Wangji is not an exotic specimen, but rather a single dad doing his best for his kid and his magical bunny.

    Summary

    “Yes. Well. Do tell us a little about yourself.”

    OK. “Umm, I’m twenty-five. I’m staying over the hill in Camberwell. I went to art school.” Wei Ying tried to think of what else to say. It was a bit like dating. “I’m a bit of a hot mess actually, I’m sleeping on my brother’s sofa because I don’t have anywhere to live, and I haven’t had a meaningful relationship in like, forever.” He leaned forward and said behind his hand “I’m bi so it really shouldn’t be this difficult -.” He looked up to see they were both staring at him. That was good, he was keeping them engaged. “I love kids. They love me. Where’s yours, by the way?”

    Lan Xichen turned to Nie Mingjue, but Nie Mingjue just stared back, apparently fascinated by Wei Ying. Lan Xichen turned back to look at Wei Ying again.

    “We -. I wonder if -. Perhaps you can tell us a little about your - experience?” He smiled. “With - children.” He added.

    “You can see from my CV I don’t really have any.” Wei Ying gave them a huge smile.
