Backstory Threads for AU Event in Ryslig

Runyu AU

AU Story Snippet Overload from Ryslig's AU Event . Thank you for creating such a well for ideas ~~

This is the link to Runyu's top level and Runyu's Thread with Phoenix about his mother's disappearance that are a part of this AU.


Additional information to Runyu's Story: Runyu changed his name when he was adopted (officially) by his father: Taiwei Wuyishan. Before he was adopted at the age of 11, he went by the name of Runyu Wang, using his mother's name.

The Wang family is old money like the Wuyishan family but not as ostentatious and loud about it. They’re a family of artists, from musicians to painters and proprietors of expensive stores for the arts (musical instruments to antiques). His mother was a musician and met Taiwei there. After her affair, Suli’s music faded and she rarely left the house. Runyu was raised on the other side of town, officially as part of the larger extended family to hide the scandal (and to hide his existence from Tuoyao Wuyishan?). Suli even took her cousin's name. She lived life as if in a daze, lapsing between needy and distant, teaching her son music or throwing violent fits. Runyu was a quiet, studious child, and taught to keep his head down no matter what was said about him by bullies in school, and that the truth would be explained when he was older. Runyu nearly succeeded in following his mother's wishes through all of elementary school. But then, an incident caught the eye of Taiwei and he realized they were related. The affair was leaked to the press.

Soon after, Runyu's mother disappeared and the Wang family was destroyed, suffering a series of losses in their financial adventures and falling to a series of monster attacks after losing their fame. The press could not reach Runyu because he was shipped to a school out of town by his stepmother, hoping to keep her son from becoming attached to him.

Runyu has long black hair, usually tied back, like he does in Ashes of Love canon (and unlike Luo Yunxi's image) because his mother's side is more traditional and it's part of a small, silent resentment of the life he's been forced to lead. He wears a bracelet that his mother gave him shortly before disappearing and plays a flute Taiwei gave him when adopting him, which belonged to his mother.
