Summary
“They’re getting closer. I hope you don’t have a fear of heights.”
The stranger’s grip tightened around her shoulder. She raised her leg.
And then they flew.
A gasp escaped the soldier. They were flying. They were getting farther away from the ground every second. Soon, the ochre cobblestones were reduced to tiny sparkles. She felt the wind in her blond hair, and suddenly she felt utterly, completely free.

But home meant something else now. In the broken, corpse-shell of her mind, the concept of home had started to become significant.

Summary
“We end it all in one round, right?” he said, and then his face lit up with his usual smile, so full of warmth and gentleness. There was no reason to smile now, but Eiji did it anyway, always trying to comfort him. He knew how important it was for him to see this smile.
Ash nodded and smiled too, barely. Very calm. He already knew how it was going to end.
“The one who throws the marble as close to the wall as possible wins, right?”

The marble game from Squid Game, but with Ash and Eiji.

Summary
Cursing under his breath, Jin Ling quickly decided that the best strategy would be to divert jiujiu's attention to something else, so he asked, “What did they want?” To his surprise, it worked.
“My hand in marriage.”
“What?” Jin Ling sputtered, confused by the phrasing, and then he heard a soft snort.
“Apparently, I need a wife who can make me happy.”
“Are you unhappy?” Jin Ling asked carefully. Before, he'd always thought jiujiu had just been like that, grumpy and quick to anger, but loving underneath it all. Now he knew that jiujiu had been softer once, more trusting, way before the war; he had proof of that in the form of a folded piece of paper that lay proudly next to his mother's comb and his father's guān.
“Ha! No, no more than usual,” he huffed. “And that's not your concern anyway. I'm happy when you're happy.”Or: Jin Ling comes to Yunmeng to celebrate the Lantern Festival with his uncles, ends up solving a mystery case, and acquires more family members.

Summary
Jiang Yanli knows that she is unremarkable and disappointing.
Her constitution is weak, and her energies must be devoted to keeping her lungs full and her heart beating. She possesses neither the reflexes for skilled swordsmanship nor the sharpness for archery. Worse still, she lacks the ambition, the drive, the spine that is required of a sect heir.
The physicians and healers at Lotus Pier warn her family to strictly limit her efforts at cultivation, as she cannot divert too much qi from her body’s primary needs. Cultivation leaves her prone to headaches, fainting, and most dangerously, the risk of qi deviation.
Jiang Yanli can only ever cycle her qi in slow drips and thin streams. So she learns over the years to be patient with it. To be like the water, slowly wearing away at wood, stone, or whatever lies in its path towards its purpose. If this is the way for her to slowly work her qi, to carefully gather it and collect it in a usable form, she will take it.
If her qi is too weak to cultivate by sword, she will cultivate by needle.

Summary
“Do you want to have a child?”
“What—you mean a living, breathing, human kid?” Dongsik tosses the words lightly as a joke, his eyes crinkling with mirth as if expecting Juwon to bolt out at the idea. As if the idea of being responsible for one sticky little human – the ultimate form of attachment – will deter him.
“…You do realize neither of us has the right organ for it, right?”
Or: Juwon thinks Dongsik really is too old to run at the topic of children (not to say Juwon himself didn't freak out or anything).

Summary
Bones is hyper and impulsive. His whole life people have assumed he's also stupid or oblivious. He's not. He pays attention.
And what he is seeing is how this weird Japanese kid is slowly but surely taming the wild Lynx. He's pretty sure it's a good thing.
Ash and Eiji's story told from Bones's perspective.
