Possible Plot Points:
These are some of the topics I thought about writing next, but whoever adopts this fic is not obliged to follow them:
Dogxian sleeps through most part of the journey wakes up when he’s hungry and steals an apple or so from the wagon
2 days later when they’re passing through Yunmeng Jiang jurisdiction he jumps off and resumes his solo travel
Is found by a family while scampering for food
Stays with them for a while
Sees a bunch of Yunmeng Jiang cultivators passing through the city
Follows them until he reaches Lotus Pier
Sniffs around and whines until he finds Jiang Cheng
I didn't get far enough to the reveal
Notes on the story: This was supposed to be a fun, fluffy story that I unfortunately didn't have enough brains to finish hahahahahaha Whoever adopts it may rewrite the beginning (I actually encourage it), I just wish that the same spirit be kept <3

Please feel free to share the petty reasons you think wangji would not like jgy because they sound hilarious
a) Lan Wangji is The Baby. Brother is paying Quite A Lot Of Attention to someone who is 1) not him 2) suspiciously younger-brother shaped 3) oh it's not like that well still
b) Jin Guangyao's whole thing is being polite and ingratiating in a way that most people find very pleasant but I think Wangji Would Not. do not try to make me like you. i already don't. you're just doing this to suck up to xichen.
c) he is not only a Jin (sus) he actively strove to become a Jin. he could have not had everyone know he was Jin Guangshan's son, and not had to spend time being with and showing respect for Jin Guangshan, but he did it, on purpose. filial piety is one thing but At What Cost.
d) learning lots of different techniques when you could just obsessively perfect and memorize one technique? i mean..... sure......... if that's what works for you.............
e) stop making small gestures for my comfort when i'm forced to exist in a social space in your presence i do not like you
