    Summary

    Fics I've written for other people... often very experimental. 😁 All of these fics are disconnected one-shots set in different universes unless explicitly identified as sequels, so you do not not need to read them all! Please read the tags!

    Summary

    Yibo waited as the initial fervor died down, then stepped forward, because he was nothing if not professional, and part of his job was to interact with and assist the talent. Clutching his clipboard to his chest, he adjusted his headset and joined the fray. He knew he would have to sooner or later, and he might as well start off on the right foot. Elbowing his way only slightly to the front, he looked up and nearly swallowed his tongue.

    Okay, so maybe Wenhan had been onto something there.

    OR, against his will, drama PA Yibo ends up falling for the star. Dammit.

    Summary

    Two things happen simultaneously when their hands touch: first, the migraine that Xiao Zhan's been fighting all day dissipates so immediately that a loud gasp slips out of his mouth. Second, a torrential outpouring of warmth shoots up Xiao Zhan's arm so quickly that he almost loses his balance and falls off the bench. The next moment, Xiao Zhan drops Yibo's hand. He tries to convert the abrupt movement into something more graceful, but he doesn't think he succeeds.

    Yibo's eyes have gone wide. His neck bobs as he swallows. What the hell, Xiao Zhan thinks faintly, astonishment thick in his throat. He just manages to keep himself from passing out as the migraine lances through his head again with a vengeance.

    与战同袍 by Anonymous

    Fandom: 陈情令 | The Untamed (TV) RPF

    07 Sep 2021

    Summary

    bjyx short fics related to Street Dance of China 4

    与子同袍 = yu zi tong pao or “battle for peace” according to sdc4 but actually a saying/line from a poem that literally means “share my robes with you” that was about soldier comradery in battle. The part of the poem goes something like if you don’t have a robe, i will share mine with you so basically what’s mine is yours/comradery/battle together (against a common enemy)/brother(s)-in-arms

    It’s not really “battle for peace” but i also can't think of a phrase that works for it that could still be 4 characters long so I understand why sdc4 went with what they did

    与战同袍 = yu zhan tong pao or a bad pun of the above that means “share my robes with zhan”/comradery with war/imply someone really into battling (for an even worse/dirty pun, 与战同炮 ...if you know, you know 😜)
