LOL! Thank you :) I seem to get quite a few comments that are more or less 'this character you love enough to write a fic about is a terrible person'. Normally I'm mentally prepared for it because I tend to stan villains, or at least unsympathetic characters. but I was staggered to receive one about Lan Xichen of all people, who genuinely tries to be good and nice to everyone. The whole experience of posting this has been deeply cursed. I wonder what I did!
