    Summary

    Di Feisheng closes the distance between them again. “I’m checking your legs for injuries now.”

    “I told you already, my legs are fine.”

    “You did. But you’re a liar.”

    Li Lianhua glares as Di Feisheng backs him up against one of the pillars that supports the roof of the Guo family’s sumptuous guest suite. He can’t decide whether he’d rather make a break for it or use up a fraction of his precious remaining qi to punch the bastard in his smug mouth.

    ---------

    Coda for Episode 12, in which Di Feisheng comes to check in on Li Lianhua after a long, challenging day, and feelings are had (much to everyone's chagrin).

    Summary

    Something smells so good. Wei Ying closes his eyes, already feeling sleepy, and tries to identify where the scent is coming from. He turns his face to one side and then the other, chasing it, until his nose touches Lan Zhan’s cheek.

    He pulls back quickly, not freaking out, because it’s fine. He touched Lan Zhan’s cheek with his nose, and Lan Zhan smells really fucking good, and they’re lying down together on a very soft bed because Lan Zhan is too drunk to let go of him, and Lan Zhan is gay but Wei Ying isn’t, and it’s fine.

    Wei Ying swallows hard and closes his eyes again.

    -

    Wei Ying helps Lan Zhan out of an uncomfortable situation, and they grow close right away, becoming instant friends. To Lan Zhan, they become instant something else. With time, they only get closer and closer, and Wei Ying is forced to deal with his own feelings about Lan Zhan, and his perception of his own sexuality.

    Summary

    The droning hum of Louis' boredom is going to drive Armand mad. Instead of accepting it, Armand seeks out the kaleidoscope chaos that is Daniel Molloy's mind to learn why he's so special, so fascinating, so interesting.

    Every city he finds him in, he learns more before he makes Daniel forget. Every city, Armand grows a little more addicted. And every city, Armand does something he's not supposed to do -- falls a little more in love and eager to give Daniel the memories of who they are together.

    Summary

    “I can be more cruel,” he said slowly and carefully. “Do you want to give it a try?”

    Zhao Yuanzhou immediately closed his eyes, raising his half-curled hand in a show of submission. “Xiao-Zhuo daren,” he said weakly, though indulgence was audible if one listened closely. “Mercy.”

    (Zhu Yan builds a dreamscape in which to do bad things to Xiao-Zhuo daren.)

    Summary

    “That’s it. That’s the solution.”

    Jiang Cheng opened an eye confused. “What do you mean?”

    There was a weird light in Lan Xichen’s eyes and for a moment Jiang Cheng thought the other had gone crazy. “We will make them understand what it feels like seeing their brothers being… intimate with each other.”

    (Or: Jiang Cheng and Lan Xichen have walked on Wangxian fucking too many times and plan to get revenge by pretending they're together. It goes as well as you think.)

    Summary

    After Zhuo Yichen had found Zhao Yuanzhou's last shred of soul he extracted with the Yunguang Sword, he went back to the Peach Blossom Villa in Tiandu, ready to live a life of seclusion while helping the ape demon recover. Pei Sijing and Wen Xiao would occasionally come visit them whenever they had free time despite their responsibilities, always bringing one treasure or another that they hope would be helpful for Zhao Yuanzhou's recovery while also making sure that Zhuo Yichen himself was healing too. But mostly, it was just the two of them in this enormous manor, well more like Zhuo Yichen and that wisp of Zhao Yuanzhou's soul who has yet to manifest his human form again. Time flew by just like that. Months and years passed in the blink of an eye as Zhuo Yichen spent his days brewing tea, cultivating and training patiently by himself.

    On the evening of one spring day, Zhuo Yichen opened his eyes after a session of meditation, greeted by the sight of that familiar figure dressed in exquisite black robes. Zhao Yuanzhou smiled at him amidst the falling flower petals, looking as if he had never left Zhuo Yichen's side in the first place.

    " Xiao Zhuo, I'm back."

    It was the 8th year after his "death".

    Summary

    “Hanguang-jun,” Wei Wuxian repeats. His heart clenches. He wants—but he’d really meant to have this nightmare stuff down before they met again, so he wouldn’t find himself relying on Lan Wangji’s nearness. He’s not supposed to go back yet. But he’s so tired, and his will crumbles. “Yeah,” he says. “All right. Take me back to Gusu with you.”

    Summary

    His fingers hesitate on Wei Ying’s arm, then brush a strand of hair from his face, catching in the blood on his skin. They linger there behind his ear, barely touching his warmth, gentle. Lan Wangji’s heart will not slow down, and he does not know why. All he knows is that seeing Wei Ying like that, ripped apart and flayed by his own darkness, has settled something in his chest, answered an unasked question.

    This man did not become a monster with gladness.

    ;

    Darkness and light, fear and promise, loneliness and belonging: Lan Wangji stumbles across a crumbling castle in the mountains, and discovers that the balance is never as even as it seems.

    Summary

    Dying was supposed to be simple—peace, quiet, an end to all the complications of existence. But of course, there was Yichen. Who else would be stubborn enough to drag Zhu Yan back into the chaos? He should be angry. Or disappointed. Or maybe even grateful. Instead, he’s preoccupied with burying inconvenient truths as deeply as possible—just like a proper Great Demon ought to.

    And then there’s Wen Xiao. Radiant, clever, endlessly amused by their antics. It’s easy to lose yourself in her, isn’t it? But not even her brilliance can quiet the restless hunger gnawing at the edges.

    This is a story about how even millennia don’t make you any smarter about your own feelings. About stubborn ex-humans breaking apart and drinking too much. About demonic sex-ed (yes, actual sex-ed), and the surprising practicality of balance as both a life skill and… other things.

    Most of all, it’s about finding what you didn’t realize you’d been searching for all along—and what it costs to claim it.

    The story is finished, and I’ll be posting updates a few times a week (don’t expect daily; I’m way too lazy for that). Comments, however, make me post faster. Do with that what you will.

    Summary

    Lan Wangji would do anything he could to shield his brother from pain and sorrow, just like Lan Xichen had done to him when they had been kids, grieving from the departure of their mother and the seclusion of their father. He would do anything, even if it meant he had to bind his soul to a demon, just so his brother could hold Jiang Wanyin again.

    Summary

    Jiang Cheng has never been close to Lan Xichen, but he's well versed with the way the other man smiles – gentle, yes; welcoming, friendly, always sincere – but never familiar.

    Lan Xichen smiles now, at Jiang Cheng, and his whole face lights up. He smiles at Jiang Cheng with none of his usual polite distance; he smiles like Jiang Cheng is his entire world.

    And that's the first time Jiang Cheng meets that Lan Xichen.

    Summary

    The first time Shen Qingqiu feels it, he thinks he’s experiencing some sort of minor qi deviation.


    “Shizun,” Luo Binghe asks quietly. “Are you okay?”

    “Am I not allowed to look at my husband?” Shen Qingqiu asks, doing his best not to get snippy. After all he’s a Peak Lord, a powerful cultivator, a man that has cheated death. There’s no reason for him to act like a needy spouse. 

    “My lord,” the servant leans down again with their voice practically purring as they refill a cup that’s only a quarter empty. It catches Luo Binghe’s attention, interrupting the beaming look he had been about to shoot towards Shen Qingqiu. 

    Despite the fact that Luo Binghe looks more bemused than entranced, Shen Qingqiu feels the porcelain cup in his own hand crack.

    Summary

    "Wei-gongzi? Wake up! Why won't he wake up? Wei Wuxian!"

    Wei Wuxian's consciousness comes back as a slow rushing of sound. Voices, movement, something that sounds like fire crackling. It flickers behind his eyelids, so chances are, it's probably a fire. Then a shadow falls over him and he groans as he attempts to peel his eyes open. It's not an easy business—they somehow feel both dry and sticky at the same time, and when he manages to open them the tiniest bit, even the dim light around him feels like blinding sunlight. There's pressure in his chest, but at least his breathing is fine.

    He has no idea what happened.

    OR, Wei Wuxian finds himself in a pickle--and it involves Lan Wangji.

    Summary

    Today, Wei Ying is dressed for the emperor. He has been planning this exact moment for months; timed it to precision, even. If they will not let Wei Ying serve the emperor, then Wei Ying will make the emperor come to him.

    And all he needs—is for the man to catch a glimpse. Just one glimpse of him, and Wei Ying knows he will have the chance to alter his fate.

    When he feels the man's eyes on him from afar, Wei Ying hurriedly gets up from where he’s sitting by the lotus pond. “Pardon me, your majesty,” he lies, lowering his head, hiding his smile. “I lost my way.”
