Summary
“Well what else am I supposed to do?!” Jin Ling explodes, pointing a dumpling accusingly at Lan Jingyi’s face.
“Oh I don’t know, actually try to train your spoiled dog?” he replies, snagging the dumpling from Jin Ling’s chopsticks and stuffing it in his mouth.
“Fairy isn’t spoiled!”
“Well you haven’t actively tried to take it from her, right?" Ouyang Zizhen steps in to mediate. "And you’ve still got a week before the conference! That’s plenty of time to get the hat back and throw it out,” he reasons, reasonably, because he’s a reasonable person who also has no idea how smart and stubborn Fairy can be!!
The pros and cons of teaching your dog to “drop it”.

Summary
“Guess I’m warm. Cats like warmth.”
Carl had learned to read smiles on Akram’s face. They weren’t usually on his lips, resembling more a dancing light in his pupils, a twitch in the crow’s feet that only accentuated his eyes, his brows relaxing for a second. This time however, the corners of his mouth fluttered, but he didn't comment.
When Carl and Akram look for clues and find a cat... cuteness ensues.

Summary
Akram huffs a laugh as he tilts his head to the side. “Your penchant for sarcasm is truly admirable.”
Carl grins at him. “I do try.”
“Seems it comes easily.”
“Sometimes.” Carl winks playfully, unable to help himself. “Always pays to have a captive audience.”
Akram’s smile seems to catch him unawares and he shakes his head. His ankle presses back against Carl’s, a very deliberate touch, and Carl tries not to choke on his chip as he pops it in his mouth.
Or, a thunderstorm keeps Carl and Akram from returning home... and there's only one bed.

Cracked Lips (A Creation Myth) by jockvillagersonly for psychicwaffles
Fandoms: 老九门 | Old Nine Gates (TV)
27 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
He swallowed dryly past the cloth in his mouth — cotton, maybe a handkerchief, by the taste and feel of it, and God, he hoped it wasn’t used — and acknowledged to himself that perhaps it was a good thing that the ruffians had gagged him. Tiezui had a long list of pointers to give this particular group, and he had the nagging idea that kidnappers were rarely open to constructive criticism.
A character flaw among the criminal underworld as a whole, he felt.

Summary
Lan Jingyi knows that he's a Lan by blood. He wears the Lan family headband, with its special embroidery and everything. He's a disciple like everyone else, even though he's not so good at sitting through his classes, and he's racked up more punishments than anyone else in his age group twice over already. He's trying, so why is it none of his family want to raise him? Maybe they don't know he's here, in the children's home. Maybe they just need to learn who he is and they'll take in their orphaned cousin with open arms. If he could only learn to behave and earn their approval then he'd be set with a new family to take over for the parents he doesn't really remember, but why is behaving so hard?!

Summary
“That’s my glass!” the man protests, struggling for a moment, but he’s too drunk to really put up any sort of fight against Zhang Rishan, who’s his physical superior anyway. When he realises he’s not going to win, he lets out a warbling sound of defeat that makes something in Zhang Rishan twist unpleasantly. His hand is gripping Zhang Rishan’s coat, and he gives Zhang Rishan a look of utter betrayal. “Handsome men should have better manners,” he says, “if you’re going to save me, you shouldn’t steal my things right after!”
-
Zhang Rishan and Qi Tiezui meet when the latter is half out of his mind with drink. This becomes a trend.

Summary
“Just a few spiders,” his ass. He was going to kill their informant when -- not if, because Zhang Qishan dealt only in absolutes, and he refused to entertain a scenario where they didn’t get out of this hellhole -- they got out of here.
Just a few spiders, and a horde of blood zombies was more like it.

Summary
Bai Yutong is handling it.
Ever since he was fifteen years old and realized that the horrible, sickening, aching feeling he got in his chest whenever he looked at his best friend wasn't a sign of early heart failure but instead a warning of something much worse, he's been handling it perfectly fine. With full maturity and dignity.
He's the head of SCI. He's the best cop of his generation. He's the pinnacle of self-control and an expert at compartmentalization.
But sometimes—Sometimes Zhan Yao doesn't make it easy.
In fact, it's times like these he's convinced Zhan Yao is determined to make his life as difficult as humanly possible.

“I can handle it,” Benjamin says softly, but Luo Fei steps closer.
“Let me help,” Luo Fei says, and Benjamin can hear the undertone of guilt now, the way he’s not asking so much as pleading. “Ben.”
He’s never been able to deny Luo Fei anything. No point in starting now, he thinks.
(ben gets hurt. luo fei fusses.)

Summary
Being the head of the Xie family has always meant discipline and loneliness to Xie Yuchen. He has his friends, of course, but he's taught himself over the years to never rely on anyone. So why does this ridiculous ruffian constantly make him want to break his own rules?
Hei Xiazi has learned over the years that relationships of any kind are more trouble than they're worth. When you care about people, someone always gets hurt. It's just a crapshoot of whether it's you or them. Better to walk away before the inevitable messy end. So why does this brash boy make him want to stay?

“Do you miss him?” Tianlang-Jun asks, drawing Yue Qingyuan back to the present.
“Who?”
“Whoever it was you were searching for when you trapped me under Bai Lu.”
Yue Qingyuan doesn’t know why, but he tells the truth. It feels like the first time he’s done it since the day he saw Shen Jiu’s face cresting Qing Jing Peak.
“Every day.” The words are like gravel falling up his throat. His voice is hoarse.
OR
Yue Qingyuan and Tianlang-Jun drink together. They mourn all of the things they’ve lost and ponder over things still yet to come.

Summary
Rufus Drumknott woke up alive. This was a relatively positive sign, considering the last thing he remembered was a member of the Überwaldian delegation knocking him over the head with the very treaty they were here to sign. It was a very thick tome.
Or, Drumknott puts in a request for some time off. Vetinari is sarcastic about it.

Summary
Part of him felt like he existed entirely at the spot where his hand rested, cradled in Changcheng's acceptance and compassion. Part of him resisted: Weakness, it said in a familiar echo. He'll make you weak. Or, no, he'll uncover the weakness already in there. Uncover you. And then... And then...?
And then, who will protect him, Chu Shuzhi thought.
