Summary
We picked up another SecUnit, a company one, and it’s not going well. Three fucking hates it. It’s been 97.3 hours since we pulled it out of a collapsed mining pit and, coincidentally, 96.8 hours since I got a singular hour of alone time. I haven’t watched any media, stared at a single wall in peace, or taken a recharge cycle in that time.
This might be the voyage where I snap and live up to my name.Bookmarked by Emeraldburn

Summary
It’s a really unfortunate thing, developing a crush on your husband. Wei Ying had assumed this would be easy. Lan Zhan had been so icy and unpleasant to him, it had never occurred to him that he might end up spending the next however many years with this dumb, burning feeling in his chest whenever he looks at him.
“Okay,” says Wei Ying. “But tell me if I…if the pretending gets to be too hard, okay?”
“It will not,” says Lan Zhan, quietly certain.

Summary
“Cloud Reccesses Apiary,” says a toneless, deep masculine voice, with zero question in it. Wei Ying doesn’t care, because whoever possesses that voice is probably going to come save him from bees like a fucking hero while wearing like, a suit of armor. That’s what you wear to catch bees, right?
“I have like, so many bees outside my front door right now,” he says, mouth running out ahead of him before he can even begin to think about reining it in. “It’s like a sandstorm of bees out there. There are so many bees. I got out of my car and there were just bees and I don’t want these bees. Do you want these bees? Please tell me you will come get these bees. I can’t leave my house and I have enough food for maybe a week but then I’m gonna have to learn how to cook dry beans and no one wants that, especially not me.” Wei Ying runs out of air, takes a breath, and belatedly adds, “My name is Wei Ying. Hi.”
Or: The beekeeping AU that no one asked for.

Summary
“New idea,” Jin Zixuan says, appearing out of nowhere as soon as Lan Zhan sets one foot in the door. “Garden landscaping—Yanli’s always complaining about how terrible and overgrown her backyard is. I could redo it, plant some flowers, maybe even dig a pond—”
“Have you been lying in wait to ask me that all day?” Lan Zhan interrupts to ask. “Also: no. Do not dig Yanli a pond.”
“Why not?” Jin Zixuan says. “Don’t you think it’s a good idea? Yanli’s always saying how much she misses the lake near her parents’ house—it would be a little piece of home!”
Lan Zhan thinks of Wei Ying. He wonders if Wei Ying misses the lake too. Whether he might like a pond.

Jin Zixuan is hopeless when he has a crush. It turns out that Lan Zhan is even worse.
