    Summary

    Summary

    After yet another meeting at the Golden Tower, where Jin Guangshan seems unable to breathe just by mentioning Wei Wuxian and repeats like a broken record that he wants both him and the Yin Tiger Seal, the situation explodes. Not content with that, he also demands that the few surviving Wen be handed over to the Jin “for judgment.”

    Jiang Cheng has already tried to talk to Wei Wuxian. He came back more frustrated than ever, with zero results and a massive headache. So, for “one last diplomatic attempt,” Jin Guangshan decides to send Lan Xichen and Nie Mingjue. Obviously not because he trusts them, or because he believes in peace at all: he just hopes that Wei Wuxian will make a mistake, even a tiny bit, so as to have the perfect pretext for an attack.

    Lan Xichen leaves full of optimism, Nie Mingjue with a headache. At the Funeral Mountains they find no armies or living corpses, but elder Wen men tending the fields. The only thing they don't find... is Wei Wuxian. Instead, they discover that he is in Yiling every day, at the inn he opened with the few surviving Wen. And perhaps, between steaming soup and unexpected smiles, something could warm them much more than their stomachs.

    Summary

    The woods were so quiet–dead quiet, eerily quiet. No owl, no deer, no coyote, no fox, not even a single squirrel or chipmunk or chickadee. There were tracks, though–fox tracks that as soon as they both noticed, they dodged so as not to ruin them, like the fox would need to retrace his steps for some reason.

    That wasn’t the sign Hawk was looking for. He was looking for the visual affirmation of something, good or bad, right or wrong, in the fauna of the woods, but there was none.

    But that coyote on the edge of the river returned to his mind–the trickster. That could have been a sign, one Hawk didn’t even know he’d needed or had to look out for until now.

    Summary

    When a stranger tells you they noticed you before you noticed them, it’s already far too late for you. Because attention isn’t passive-- it's essentially an invitation. And the longer you keep reading, the easier it becomes for something to start noticing you back. You really should've stopped there.

    Summary

    Nightwing smiled at him through the glass. It wasn’t a nice smile.

    “Let me in, Jay.” Dick’s voice came muffled through the glass, pleasant and easy like he was asking to borrow a cup of sugar instead of demanding entry to Jason’s apartment at—Jason glanced at the clock—nearly midnight on a Friday.

    Summary

    The Fantastic Four trace stolen medical equipment to the hideout of the gymnast turned criminal mastermind, Scrimshaw. In addition to the stolen goods, they find a young woman with incomplete memories who claims to be a version of Scrimshaw from another dimension. She isn't, not quite. They take her in, nonetheless.

    Or, Barley has nothing she can call her own. Not her own memories, not her own body. She's a clone, created to be the perfect organ donor for the supervillain Scrimshaw. When she takes advantage of an attack on the hideout to escape, she runs into the arms of the Fantastic Four. The problem? She's sure that if she tells them what she really is, they'll finish what Scrimshaw started and render her down for parts.

    Summary

    Накануне Дня Прогресса второкурсник Виктор сидит в библиотеке ночью и чертит конкурсный проект. У него не очень хорошо обстоят дела с общением с другими студентами - зато очень хорошо с механикой. Но сегодня и это ему не помогает: Виктор не учёл в своих расчётах разницу между плотностью воздуха в его родном Зауне и Пилтовере. Опаздывая домой до закрытия моста между городами, он решает пойти развеяться, но натыкается на оставленный в библиотеке кем-то другим незаконченный проект.

    The rest is history.

    Что ещё будет в этой истории, кроме физики (и лирики), химии (между Виктором и Джейсом) и механики (земной и небесной)?
    Увидим!
