King's Ransom by Tessa Crowley | captive prince | 54k

Less than a month after Auguste’s death at Marlas, Laurent goes into his first heat. Presenting as omega destroys what’s left of his life: he is stripped of all lands and titles and sent away to a breeding house, where when he comes of age he will be sold off to whatever alpha has the coin to pay for him. Furious, Laurent swears vengeance against his uncle, the man who took everything from him. He will do whatever it takes to bring him down.
His plans go slightly sideways when he is purchased by a mysterious alpha from Ios.

Queen's Sacrifice by Tessa Crowley | captive prince | 54k

The traitor-prince Kastor is dead and Akielos is secure, but in Arles, whispers of the Lost Queen still haunt the halls. Laurent has never wanted the crown, never wanted to rule, but if he learned anything from his time as a slave-bride, it’s that he cannot escape what he is: an omega, with the blood of kings flowing in his veins. He is resolved to go to war, not for power, but for liberation, to secure freedom for his sex, and to assure that no Veretian omega ever has to live through the same nightmare he did.
But war is never simple, especially not with Damianos at his side—the man who killed his brother, and with whom Laurent is falling helplessly in love.

Of Destruction and Rebirth by demoniqt | mdzs | 88k

Wei Ying died horribly in the Burial Mounds, with the destruction of the Stygian Tiger Seal being his weapon of choice. He thought that it would all end with his death.
But alas, there truly is no rest for the wicked (or so he thought), when he awakened on a single plank road surrounded by darkness. Just as he feared that he was in his own personal hell, a heavenly official informs him that he is, in fact, now a God.

The first time you touch someone you're fated to love, you leave a mark on their skin. If they will love you in return, they'll mark you where you touched them. The deeper the color, the deeper the connection.
Wei Ying has no marks at all.

happy not knowing by plonk | mdzs | 16k

The cultivation world is rebuilding from the wreckage of the Sunshot Campaign, but Wangji and his shield brother Wei Wuxian are still completely attached at the hip. It is sad that Lan Xichen’s brother is stuck in the youthful pattern of - ah, no polite way to say it: exchanging handjobs with his shield brother - rather than moving on to more adult pursuits.
On the other hand, now that the war is over, Wangji does seem so much more open and happy than he was as a boy. He smiles sometimes, mostly at Wei Wuxian. Once, he even took an afternoon off. So Lan Xichen can let Wangji’s closeness with his shield brother lie for a time, while he finishes maturing.

“I was going to do it! I had Wei Wuxian’s soul and his ritual and I was going to cast it, but I found my poor sister sobbing in the hallway, driven half-mad by our gege and I knew she needed the curse more than I did.”
He grinned, slyly, underneath his thick layers of paint. “I knew she wanted to kill the same person I did. So I gave it to her; the soul, the ritual. As long as she promised to get revenge for me as well!”

Wei Wuxian is brought back from death into the body of Qin Su.

Proximity To Knowledge by ChilianXianzi | mdzs | 7k

Do not go near Wei Ying.
The words are clear and concise, etched neatly into the unyielding stone of Gusu Lan's wall of rules by Grandmaster Lan Qiren himself. It's unmistakable too, having the Wei character for ghost and Ying for infant - Clearly meant to allude towards one specific person living in the Cloud Recesses.

“Lan Zhan,” Wei Ying had whispered. “Lan Zhan, you will have to protect me. Madam Yu is definitely going to kill me for real this time around,” he had said jokingly, but something about how he said it made Lan Wangji pause. There was a hint of something in his tone, that Lan Wangji did not like. His mind supplied memories of Wei Ying's bare upper body and the scarring on his back.
Later, Lan Wangji would think back to this moment and recognize the genuine fear that Wei Ying had tried to mask with his typical nonchalant attitude. Later, Lan Wangji would hold Wei Ying's crushed clarity bell in his hands and know whose blood had coated it red. Later, Lan Wangji would regret leaving Wei Ying behind.
