    Summary

    "I … I don't get what I’m meant to do. I just throw my food into the fire and ... talk?" James, a son of Hermes asked -- Percy could recognise those blue eyes and elfish facial features anywhere.

    Percy grinned, "Yeah, that's pretty much it."

    James hesitated before looking down at his feet, "But ... Hermes has a lot of children more powerful and more popular than me. What would I even ask him for? It's not like he cares."

    Maybe it was because Percy was reminded of that promise he wrangled from the gods at age sixteen, but one moment he was looking at the younger camper, and the next he was throwing some of his food into the fire and asking Poseidon for some Disneyland tickets very, very loudly.

    But even though he wasn't quite sure how it happened, the small, shocked laugh that James let out made it worth it.

    Or

    Percy sees that some of the newer campers don't feel 100% comfortable with requesting stuff from their godly parents, so he decides to rectify that the only way he knows how -- dramatically.

    Summary

    "Eh! 'Little brother,' what!" Wei WuXian says, mock-outraged. "I'm thirty-five!" (Sort of. He was born thirty-five years ago, anyway.) "You must be, what, twenty-five tops?"

    "Nooo," Xie Lian says, smiling. "I'm eight hundred years old."

    "You don't look a day over four hundred," Wei WuXian says. "Seriously, how old are you?"

    "Seriously, I'm eight hundred years old," Xie Lian tells him.

    --

    Lan WangJi had a lot of time to pray to different gods while Wei WuXian was dead. One of them was Hua Cheng.

    Summary

    "They say fate disguises itself in many ways. A silver lining that tugs your finger at your destined loved one, a snake crawling on your skin as your lungs tighten to gasp for breath. It tightens around your neck the closer you are, suffocating you until the only thing you'd want to do is relieve your pain. To find the one who can free you from such misery."

    The azure eyes of the boy were translucent underneath the streetlight, the life pulsating in his hand to reach forward as the frigid air embraced the false reality he'd create for himself. As if he wanted, needed to reach towards the brunette in the fogged distance, an undefined pull yearning for her touch. His breath hitched as the grasp on his throat sang the silence that deviated from his longing.

    A university student who could see lines that are destined to connect others to their fated mate, following the one latched around his heart to his own volition. Once finding her, he'd only come to realize an impending problem once his string was connected to two people, instead of one and an evergrowing knot formulating between the three of them. How long will it take until it begins to suffocate them all?

    Summary

    Sokka heard that story before. Of course he did, the turning point of Zuko's destiny, the single bravest and most noble (or stupid) thing he's ever done. He retold the thoughts that went through his head back then, the repercussions... but he left out a single detail.
    And it's that detail that changes everything.

    I need to see his soulmark. Sokka thinks, heart hammering in his chest.

    Summary

    Soowon—master of political chess and flawless, easygoing façades—opens his mouth, finds no words, and shuts it again. His brow creases as he stares at his lap, and Jae-ha gets the sense that, like the beginnings of an earthquake, he is witnessing in Soowon the small tremors that prelude a catastrophic rending.

    Late one night, Jae-ha finds himself having an unexpected heart-to-heart with the King of Kouka.
