    Summary

    Before existence had structure or purpose, he drifted within the vastness, not truly conscious of his being but aware in a way that was beyond thought or reason.

    He was the first starlight, born from the caress of creation itself, forged from the glowing whispers of ancient beings whose tongues crafted the universe as if it were a lullaby sung to the dark.

    or

    The human personification of pure starlight and his journey to becoming human.

    Summary

    “He’s not as bad as they make him sound!” Wilbur was trying to make eye contact with Phil as he bent over to stitch up the long cut in his arm. “I’ve never actually seen him kill anyone. And even when he injuries an officer or a hero, he only does it in self-defense. He targets specific people. Bad people.”

    “Has he added you to that list of bad people?” Phil raised the boy’s arm to show the fresh stitches. “Because he sure does like to target you.”

    “No, I think startled him this time. He doesn’t like when I come at him from behind, I think.”

    “Power to Prime Wilbur….”

    “At least he said sorry?”

    Five times Phil could have come out of retirement, and the one time he finally did.

    I am now posting the rewrite of this fic! You can expect updates every week, but don't ask me for dates because I'm afraid of them. But I do have the end written, so you will for sure get to see it, lol.

    Summary

    New jobs can be difficult to adapt to, especially when you apply out of other options to survive.

    Cold nights, one meal per day, bearing a huge responsibility for the safety of those who sail the sea... at least there was peace and quiet... or so he thought.

    In the case of Lu Guang and against his better judgement, the job itself is not his biggest issue.

    He may even have enjoyed the experience had he not set foot on profane grounds, and to make matters worse; he had a mysterious stranded man to care for deal with.

    Summary

    Lu Guang sighs, drawn-out and slow. “How do you always know?” He says, not unkindly. Just tired.

    “Hm,” Cheng Xiaoshi hums, shuffling a little closer. “Just a feeling.”

     

    Or: The same scene, five times over.

    Summary

    Cheng Xiaoshi, all in all, loves working with Lu Guang. It’s not much heavy work, mostly just helping people and making sure no one is doing anything stupid, like hiding a body in the vanishing storage room. Though he’s already sat there for an hour and didn’t disappear, so he’s thankfully disproved that myth.

     

    (Lu Guang runs a magic store and Cheng Xiaoshi needs a job.)
