    Summary

    You know that feeling when you finish the Jinming Pond quest in Where Winds Meet and your brain just… stops? Yeah. That was me or us. We became utterly, irrevocably obsessed with the tragic, beautiful disaster that is Murong Yuan. The brilliant artificer. The walking paradox of vengeance and vulnerability. The woman who built a biggass warship as a monument to her grief and then lit the fuse.

    So I wrote this. Because the game wouldn't let me or us reach through the screen, grab her by the robes, and say, "Stop. Just stop. Let me help you."

    This is gonna me my or your self-indulgent, enemies to lovers, "we-were-supposed-to-bring-you-to-justice-but-instead-we're-bringing you to fairground or on a date" fix-it fic. After the flames die down in the pond, Us the Young Master doesn't walk away. we go looking. What follows is a desperate chase for the truth of Murong Yuan, a rain-soaked confession in a broken temple, and a moonlit date in Kaifeng. It’s a story about defusing the bombs in someone’s heart, one stubborn, tender, and deeply gay moment at a time.

    Summary

    Zhao Guangyi, later Emperor Taizong of Song, is a man forged by duty, strategy, and sacrifice. Stern, calculating, and unyielding, he governs an empire with the weight of countless lives on his conscience. Yet beneath his cold exterior, a singular fascination stirs. Their paths first cross when she is tasked to retrieve a stolen artifact under the guise of a life-threatening test. From that moment on, their fates intertwine. As Jin Zhongyuan, the emperor’s disguise among the common people, Zhao Guangyi experiences a rare freedom with her, witnessing her unguarded courage, unrestrained wit, and daring spirit. Their secret relationship grows, dangerous, passionate, and hidden from all, sustained in stolen nights and quiet quarters. Yet even the strongest bonds are tested. The mysterious death of Zhao Guangyi’s elder brother casts doubt, scandal, and rumor upon him. The hero vanished without a trace, leaving him with the ache of absence and unspoken truths. Eight years pass. Unbeknownst to Zhao Guangyi, the hero has borne his child, a son who remains hidden from the emperor’s watchful eyes. As court intrigue, imperial duty, and personal longing collide, the shadow of their past threatens to upend everything he has built.

    Summary

    Yi Dao had never seen the legendary Tian Ying smile.

    Not in script, not in heroic pictures, nor in writing or literary accounts. He'd seen him in life, once before, certain of that tight-lipped scowl, somewhere before it all fell into hell.

    Of course - that didn't mean he wasn't damn well going to try.

     

    OR

    Tian Ying escapes from Southern Tang with Jiang Yan's help. After separating from Jiang, he and Yi Dao (AKA Killerblade) cross paths in unfavourable circumstances. Only dark whispers speak of one another's reputation, and as it turns out, they are so fucking wrong about each other.

    Summary

    During the seven months since the attack on Blissful Retreat, Yi Dao had been a true friend - Steadfast, caring, even kind, though the man would never admit it. Nero should feel grateful, he should see the Blade's companionship like aunt Han's protection, or uncle Jiang's instruction, but instead...

    An annoying, persistent feeling had slipped under his skin. It flared like a fever whenever the older man stepped too close, whenever he looked his way, whenever he called him that stupid nickname.

    He would just need to push through it, however. There was no way the man felt the same way.

    Right?

    Summary

    The burnt-blade smell of steel and amber jade ignites like paper, its potency strong enough to burn down into your lungs, joints of your dominant hand screaming in agony. You lift your blade high enough, locked into a standstill with your opponent's copper eyes glaring into yours.

    "What truth do you see?"

    ------

    A slightly different interpretation of Tian Ying's ending with young watermelon/young master. Will be following canon events, but with some caveats.
