    Summary

    Han Jisung, a normal corporate worker travels back in time with his mortal enemy and his own boss, Lee Minho.

    “You look like you haven’t slept in ages.”

    “Well I haven’t. I'd been reading…”

    “Novels.”

    “What’s it to you, Lee Minho?!”

    ────୨ৎ────

    Their story, filled with difficult decisions, making their bond grow stronger—

    “You have to make a decision, Han Jisung!”

    “I’m fucking thinking, you asshole!”

    “It’s either save the damn cat or me!”

    “Cat.”

    “For god’s sake, why did I have to travel back in time with you…”

     

    … In his defense, the cat was undeniably and unbearably cute.

    ────୨ৎ────

    The subtle gazes, lingering touches and unspoken desires lead to complicated feelings and forbidden memories. Betrayal and heartbreak brings up unwanted chaos. Everything seems connected and tangled up and pointing to one another. How and why did they time travel? What kind of history did they have?

    “In the end, I’m always entangled with you,”

    or, Han Jisung and the man who he calls his mortal enemy—Lee Minho, travel back in time and find themselves entangled with each other with no idea on how to get back.

    Summary

    This is going to be a crossover AU between The Double/The Marriage of Di Daughter and The Pursuit of Jade/Chasing Jade. I will be making some changes to make this work, obviously, but the basic idea is that Ji Heng and Xie Zheng as cousins getting their revenge together and falling in love in the process. This will probably become a collection because I want to explore their childhood a bit as well.

    Most of my research is from Wikipedia, ChinaKnowledge.de and various reddit or Tumblr posts I've come across by googling things. I was going to make a reference document on here but decided against. Feel free to (gently) correct anything egregiously wrong in the comments and I'll either cite my sources, explain my reasoning, or correct myself depending on the situation. Enjoy!

    Summary

    Kazumori has everything. Every wish at the palm of his hands. Being the strongest comes with a price though.

    Summary

    A man’s position is measured by the precision of his conduct.

    Secretary Lâm has dedicated a life of service to Crown Prince Triết. In the Lê dynasty’s imperial court, corruption and factional rivalries begin to jeopardize His Highness. Certain that stability rests upon alignment between ruler and subject, he seeks to correct such threats. Quiet measures restore order where procedure proves insufficient.

    Each action can be accounted for.
    Each necessity admits its justification.
    Duty provides its own rationale.

    Yet devotion carried to too far may distort into obsession.
    Only when the distinction becomes clear does Lâm understand the nature of his actions.

    A coronation demands more than a crown.

    Summary

    The fourteenth prince of Great Tang schemed his way into the imperial palace twelve years ago, and he has no interest in scheming his way back out in the fight for the title of crown prince. A hot meal, a hot bath, and a sample or three of Chang’an’s nightlife is plenty for him. Unluckily for him, Heaven has seen fit to give him a direct line, granting him visions of the future and a divine duty to correct injustices. What a headache! Where justice and ambition cross paths in the imperial court, sparks fly—so when the will of Heaven plants the fourteenth prince in the crossfire, can he escape being burned?

    Summary

    “Alive?” She asks.
    “Yes, my lady.”
    She hums.
    “How unfortunate.” She says, finally, under her breath, and Minho risks a glance at her expression. “Is his situation dire?” She raises her chin slightly, still examining the body of the man on the cot.
    “My lady, he is strong. He will be awake in a couple of hours. Just… in pain.”
    She takes another long onceover at him, before fixing Minho with a tired expression; “Ensure that he stays asleep until midnight. If he continues to cling to life until then… We will transport him and you to… a residence. Further uphill. Then I will decide what to do with him.”
    Minho nods; but in truth, dislikes that he is now tasked with the stranger like a servant would. He did disclose that he is educated with herbs and medicine, but he didn’t explain to what extent, and couldn’t help but wonder if she knew more about him than she led on.
    The mistress stands up to leave, but then pauses lightly, a small smile gracing her lips. “Rejoice, child. Your dead husband has returned alive from the war.”

     

    Or, the one where Lee Minho, an omega on the run, accepts a ghost marriage to a dead great nobleman for coin.

    Summary

    In 17th-century Joseon, Prince Yeol is exiled to a distant island by his father, the king—punished for a crime he did not commit, and slowly crumbling under the weight of royal cruelty.
    Kyungsoo has always been forced to sit through the low, devastating sobs of the lonely prince—guarding his body through the deep night, yet powerless to shield his heart from shattering.
    But on the long journey to Jeju Island, among hydrangeas, hot springs, and tranquil nature, the forsaken prince may finally discover the place he can call home.

    Summary

    In the coastal village of Nanpo-ri, the sea does not forget. The fisherman's son carries its mark, cursed since the day his father vanished beneath the waves. But when the tide turns red and a mute stranger washes up, beautiful and bleeding in Widow Baek's charcoal shed, Jeon Jeong-guk realises that not all things that crawl up from the deep come to kill.

    Some come simply because they were called.

    Summary

    Late Han Dynasty, Empire’s remote northern frontier.

    General Bi-Han, a hardened commander of the garrison at the very edge of the desert, has spent years defending the the Empire against raids from the nomadic tribes. His younger brother, Kuai Liang, arrives from the capital to assist in studying and pacifying the borderlands through governance and Confucian ideals rather than force. But when he discovers a wounded tribesman sentenced to be ritually killed by his own people, every bit of order in the fortress is tested. As suspicion grows among the soldiers, superstition turning to paranoia, the brothers’ bond is threatened under the weight of guilt, desire, and conflicting love.

    Summary

    “No, we have no debts,” he agrees. “A debt is a heavy weight, you could never be that.” He tempers his impulse to grasp and cling, “A debt can be discharged. But an obligation?”

    Sizhui snaps back, as close to offended as Jingyi ever heard him,“Are we to speak of debt and obligation, of profit and loss, as if haggling over last year’s rice at market?”

    Jingyi finds Sizhui and considers the classics.

    Summary

    ~*~*~*~*~*~

    Magic swirls around Yeonjun in a whirlwind and his body begins to disappear. It hurts.

    “Please, don’t hurt me- I’m sorry!” he cries in desperation. “I’ll change! I’ll be better- please, Taehyun-ah—”

    “I’m not heartless like you,” Taehyun murmurs, eyes dark. “You can save yourself. All you have to do is get the king to fall in love with you for who you really are. Maybe that will teach you to be a better person.”

    It’s the last thing he hears before an agonizing pressure clamps tight around his body. Then he knows no more.

     

    When he wakes up, he is in Joseon.

    Summary

    Earth King Jialun

    By day, he is busy man, busy collecting concubines and managing which official's feast he will attend.

    By night, he is a busy man, busy plotting which name to have stricken from existence.

    His ancestors fought the Dai Li and lost.
    He would not make their mistake.

     

    A one-off featuring filial piety, explicit (!) concubine consummating, chariot racing, Papers Please border control, and a feast where everyone gets killed and their heads turned into volleyballs. And Avatar Kyoshi playing Go with the Earth King.

    Summary

    Inspired by a single line from Sister Disha in Reckoning of Roku .
    "To put it lightly."

     

    Also inspired by a single line from Kyoshi in her interaction with Avatar Aang.
    "They would be silent, precise, and feared by all" (on the Dai Li).

    -------------------
    Avatar Kyoshi, 228, gets informed the Air Nomads have withdrawn their support of her in protest for her choice of conduct (killing one too many sons of rebel warlords is bad).

    In the Earth Kingdom, this is an act of rebellion.

    Avatar Kyoshi handles the problem like she would any other rebellion.
    Some of her best Dai Li agents come along.
    As does Lao Tieguai, the Immortal, the Spirit of Death.

    On her path of rebellion-quashing, she communes with Spirits, drills her Dai Li, and commands the heavens themselves.
    (She and Lao Ge created the Dai Li. They don't often get the chance to crush a rebellion made of airheaded pacifists).

    Cao Mengde and Zhuge Kongming would be proud of her tactics and strategies.

    Summary

    If Huaisang gives himself away now, Meng Yao thought, Clan Leader Nie will never forgive me.

    “You must be Wen Xu,” he forced himself to utter. His throat was parched, drier than the landscape, but from that strain he shook an accent deeper, defiant enough to be a young master of the Nie household.

    Wen Xu smiled at him coolly, walking closer.

    “Indeed I am,” the Wen heir confessed. “The same that laid waste to Cloud Recesses all those years ago.” He crouched down to be level with Meng Yao on the ground, an elbow on one knee, and smiled at him patronizingly. “All the good Clan Leader Nie’s intervention did to stop it. By which of course, I mean, none.”

    Meng Yao lurched forward threateningly. He did not have to feign the rage in his heart to solidify his attackers’ false deductions.

    ––

    Mistaken for Nie Huaisang, Meng Yao is kidnapped by the Wen. Nie Mingjue and Huaisang must justify going after him, though there are many in Qinghe and Qishan who believe Meng Yao is unworthy and replaceable. Nie Mingjue is determined to bring him home – but will Meng Yao be the same when he returns?
