    Summary

    “Yeah, dumbass, I would kiss and tell, don’t worry.” 

    “But you haven’t yet,” Alex sing-songs, grinning. 

    Liam rolls his eyes. “It’s not like it was by choice. If it were up to me it would’ve happened already.” 

    Alex is silent for a moment, and something in his expression twists Liam’s stomach. “It could be up to you, though.”

    “What do you mean?”

    “I mean, you could like… kiss me, or whatever. If you want.”

    Liam stills.

    Summary

    Jonathan’s life was fine. He didn’t need other people. He studied them instead, like fire ants on the abandoned edge of the playground; carefully, with a stick and good shoes, watching their patterns and keeping his observations to himself, figuring out which ones to leave alone and which ones would make good surprises in bullies’ backpacks. Other people were tools, in the multiple definitions of the word. He used them. He didn’t like them. He didn’t need them. He was fine.

    All in all, it wasn’t difficult to stay a virgin until he turned thirty.

    A JGY-centric, Cherry Magic-inspired AU.

    Summary

    There are times when Lan Zhan pictures the version of himself that is human. Fist-sized muscle beating in his chest, the precarious architecture of a skeleton, wet muscle and visceral organs. He sees that Lan Zhan swallowing and setting his jaw, although the real Lan Zhan does not make those motions. The movement of his mouth is only a formality, a quirk of programming to soften the strangeness of his existence, as he says, “You weren’t here.”

    Summary

    “I’m not hungry anymore either,” Wei Wuxian continues. “I’ve decided that I don’t actually need to eat dinner. Who needs winter melon soup when bathroom tap water has such a deliciously sulfurous depth of flavor? Ugh—I can’t see anything, where are those damn towels—”

    A paper towel is shoved into Wei Wuxian’s hand.

    “Oh, thanks—”

    “I do not think drinking that water is advisable,” says a voice that is definitely not Jiang Cheng’s.

    Or, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji meet in a restaurant bathroom after they both go there to escape from their uncomfortable family dinner gatherings.
