    Summary

    As words continued to elude him, sentences crumbled like fragile castles of sand, and Poe's desperation deepened with every fleeting moment.

    Poe finds himself impossibly stuck while writing what should be his best work yet, something worthy of Ranpo's deductive mastery! Incapable of any form of patience, Ranpo decides to visit the novelist after weeks of unanticipated silence, finding the writer in shambles as he fights endlessly to impress.

    Summary

    Shang Qinghua has been living the "getting into sticky situations" life for well...for almost his entire second life! And really, it's totally normal at this point! An attempted assassination here, a sketchy night hunt there - nothing weird or special. All part of the day in and day out of being a retainer of the Northern Kingdom and a Peak Lord!

    So why have these...incidents spiked recently? And why does Mobei-Jun always show up just as Shang Qinghua resolves them on his own??

    Summary

    P watches the blood trickle from the mask and onto his fingertips.

    P does something he’s never done before. He startles, dropping the mask with a clatter. He grabs his wrist to stop the malfunction shaking his knuckles.

    The blood feels hot.

    or

    Four times P draws blood in a fight, and one time he draws it outside of one.

    Summary

    “If the body can’t warm up, then things get uh, b-bad?”

     

    Mobei-jun cuts him a look that’s made for slaughter. “What does that mean?”

     

    “A-ah, it’s called hypothermia, my king.”

     

    “And you die once it happens.”

     

    Again, not a question. “You can.” When Mobei-jun makes an absolutely terrifying face, Shang Qinghua hastens to add, “But not instantly! Y-you can actually recover from it, if the hypothermia doesn’t progress too far.”

     

    “How far?” Mobei-jun growls.

     

    “There are f-f-f-five stages,” Shang Qinghua shivers out, lips numb. “The fifth stage is death.”

     

    -

    Shang Qinghua and Mobei-jun have their spiritual powers sealed before getting dumped in a white-out snowstorm. Mobei-jun quickly learns that humans are far more susceptible to the cold than he thought.
