Summary
Shi Qingxuan and He Xuan are happy. They're doing their Masters, and they know what to do with their lives, at least somewhat. Shi Qingxuan is already a freelance artist, and no way in hell will He Xuan of all people not get a PhD placement. Xie Lian and Hua Cheng are married and so are Jun Wu and Mei Nianqing; Feng Xin and Mu Qing are building an even bigger family, and even Shi Qingxuan's brother is still happy with Pei Ming (even if she doesn't understand that).
They should be happy.
Except then, Shi Qingxuan remembers.
Everything.
(And in what world could she still be allowed to be with the person whose life she has destroyed?)[In a series; can theoretically be read as a standalone.]

It took quite a lot of effort, you know, but... anything for her love~ Though... she can't quite understand why he's so upset about being a Ghoul?

Summary
Did you love him?
Did you really care?
Or is he still 15 to you?
Still oblivious?
Tsk tsk tsk,
He's so much more than that, you know?
He loved you. He really did.
And you fucked it up.

Summary
"I… I suppose I like the daffodils. They appear again after every winter again and again. They remind me of being able to start over…"
//
Gustave retreats into Lumiére daily. This city is full of cafés, gardens and inventions he can shape with his mind. Here, he can move freely, create… and spend time with Verso.
Lumiére is more than just a city. It’s a world he chose, he also made it. Because inside Lumiére, he can live, act, and connect, but always at the edge of a system he can’t fully control.
As Gustave navigates these two worlds, he begins to realize that the world he chose is both sanctuary and trap. Every promise, every connection with Verso carries a cost. How much of Lumiere is freedom and how much is a prison he made for himself? -

“Hanbin-ah...”
The name was a prayer. A goodbye.
“I was your flower, right?”
His breath shuddered, his chest rising one final time.
“I’ll return back to soil tomorrow... okay?”

Summary
If you asked anyone in Will's life they'd say he's moved on, and technically it is true — he's found new friends, had (and loved) a few boyfriends, done things his younger self wouldn't even think possible. Still, it wouldn't be entirely accurate, because that's not how Will sees it: moving on is a "directional" term, it implies the existence of a straight line connecting point A (the past) to point B (the future) that everyone must walk, regardless of what, or who, is left behind.
And this is something Will simply can't accept.
He has learned to live without El because he had to, but that doesn't mean he's moved on from her. Nor that he wants to.
He has learned to live without Mike too. But moving on? Na-ah.
OR
After years of miscommunication and regrets, in the late 90s Mike and Will lose touch for good.
One night in 2002 Karen Wheeler calls Will at his Montauk home and tells him that her son has just tried to kill himself.
And that, apparently, Mike still needs him -

Summary
The hospital never smelt right. Too clean and too dirty at the same time. Too noisy; too quiet. Too bright; too dark. No matter how many janitors they hired, there was always blood on the floor. No matter how many miracles occurred, tragedy came with it. No matter how many doctors came and went, someone always died. And no matter how long she worked there, Margot Monroe could never feel fulfilled.
**Obviously in progress and not beta read, so excuse any mistakes or sloppy writing. It'll get fixed someday.

Summary
...what is a heart...what is a soul...what does the flesh of a true human feel like?
I can't remember the last time I've felt compassion for any of those peasants. Every day, they look upon me like a monster of sorts, a deity there to poison their lives...
I can't remember when I last looked in the mirror and saw the love I used to hold within my being. I'm sure the mouth on my stomach consumed it, or the new pair of arms that sprouted underneath were the result of letting it go...
I feel my face deforming further and further on my right side, but my vision has never been clearer...
My heart has changed, it seems...or has it been devoured for the hunger in my gut rises every torturous second that goes by in this hellish realm...
...I'm hungry...and I'm losing my mind...
...surely the flesh of a human wouldn't be too bad, right?
Or
Itadori falls into the Nara Era and becomes the thing he hated most, not knowing it was him all along as the period transitions into the Heian Era

Summary
Jinu had always hated looking in the mirror.
While he was still human, his reflection only highlighted the hollows of his cheeks, the cracks in his lips. It was a reminder of his failure to provide for his family, and he avoided it as much as possible.
Later, in the palace, the mirror had been the last thing he'd seen before being yanked into the demon world for the next four hundred years. It was a reminder of the deal he'd made with Gwi-Ma, how he'd abandoned his family for riches.
And after? The mirror showed him every single scar he'd earned under the demon king's service. The burns, the whip slashes, and jagged rocks cutting into his skin as he knelt before the throne, a fist in his hair forcing his head up up up -
No. He never allowed himself to think about that for too long. Because if he thought about it, it would mean it had really happened. Was he even the same person he had been before the torture? Before the fire, the pain?
The Idol Awards are over, and Jinu has Rumi. He's supposed to be fine. But his past haunts him, and Gwi-Ma's voice in his head once more doesn't help.
It turns out that some wounds never stop bleeding.
