Esp since he “came back” from the dead who wouldn’t be scared? Answer? JC and LWJ who are trying to get him. He is sure to vanish before they show up. Go back into hiding.
JC definitely wants to kick his ass and some sense into him.
Being shameless #wangxian fan I am- LWJ wants him in Gusu 👀
Which- is true. WWX is still incredibly dangerous. He had retired and went into hiding. A quiet back ground genius just… done with being a villain. But these new kids were running around took it upon himself to keep the real nasty villains away.
Like there are other budding villains they fight and threats they handle but the Biggest is the YLLZ. Who is way more over dramatic and goofy then they were told. He has fucking Lessons in them.
LWJ thinks about how WWX ends. Alone on a hill he will metaphorically and physically die on. Ruefully glaring down at HGJ before he is struck down. He doesn’t think he can do it.
LWJ frowns because he did, and he does remember when events come up or someone reminds him. He doesn’t remember the books having mentioned the Nie often.
LWJ: I guess not. NHS: the Jin prefer a head shaker to a game changer what can I say. So you want to save WWX then?
LWJ ends up glaring down NHS for a good minute before the other boy grins.
NHS: you so fit the hero role huh? Well lucky for you- this only child enjoys being a Didi and now is attached to a doomed brother LWJ: doomed? NHS: you really didn’t read the books- yeah NMJ is marked.
NHS: it is a book! He is written to fall! Granted- I don’t know what is going to happen with you being nice to him.. what you want to change the book? LWJ:… don’t you? This is our life now isn’t it? NHS: what you don’t think we return if we follow the plot? LWJ:….these are people. Not a book….
NHS: well… it is your foil. Where HGJ never waivers and is stead fast high road- he falls and rises again from the low ground. LWJ:…. That… isn’t fair. NHS: why does it have to be? LWJ: aren’t you his friend?
This was how LWJ meets a fellow Transmigrator. Who does know the plot a lot better than LWJ.
NHS: bold move not knowing the plot and aiming for the most dangerous villain in the book. LWJ: is he? WY is nice. NHS: ofc he is. Good villains aren’t always fundamentally evil. LWJ: why is he?
It is only when he stops himself from patting his non existent back pocket does he realize what happens.
NHS: aha! Ok so that is why you were so nice to WWX! LWJ: oh… NHS: and I am not alone! LWJ: mn. NHS:…… you don’t have to play the part you know. LWJ: I am not. NHs: omg
But with WWX gone the CR seems so much quieter and colder. So while they help the other clans disembark LWJ is slightly suprised to see NHS hovering around.
This was a forgettable character. He thinks was a puppet to the corruption. As LWJ he knows it is his brother’s friend’s brother.
Who knew Zewu-Jun- who he has a part… he does. But he was the he sect leader and the do no wrong brother… something happens with him- was actually a match making bastard.
LXC: Wangji- I am glad to see you made a friend :) LWJ: Forced proximity did wonders.
Which? He almost did! His impulses needed INSANE control! When WWX did leave it was with firm promises LWJ HAD to visit LP and with JWY- another bigger character who leads the attack on the YLLZ- telling him to leave LWJ alone. (Luckily WWX ignored him). LXC was smirking the whole time
He tried so so hard to make it casual and platonic. But with the way WWX lit up you would think he confessed. Worst he was hugged for it.- well not worst. The hug was nice but for his mental health having that pretty face that close to his made him want to kiss the hell out of WWX.
WY: hey… LZ? LZ: mn? WY: thank you… for defending me. LZ:…. I didn’t think you were wrong. WY: awe- am I a bad influence? You think punching is ok? LZ: defending your family is not wrong. WY:….. LZ you can’t say things like that! People will think you like me! LZ:…. I do?
WWX being disciplined with LWJ as his tutor…. If this was how it went in the original HGJ book it was only the protagonist not seeing the romantic tropes…. WWX gave him gay BUNNIES?! BUNNIES?? (This did not happen originally)
I think if LWJ had a system he would be a fucking PILL to it.
Anyway- I think while the book follows to the MDZS for the most part- I don’t think WWX gets kicked out. Bc LWJ does stand up for him. Leaving- guess what-
He knows he isn’t as stiff as the original protagonist but he was never an emotive person. Introverted and slightly on the spectrum- and yet WWX will seek him out. Happily fill the silence. Come up with compromise.
Things no one outside of either his families (boom or previous) have done for him
