    Summary

    A lot has changed since Jin Ling first sat on the Peony Throne. For one, he was taller at the age of sixteen with broader shoulders and a sharper face. He would look exactly like his father now, they told him, if it weren't for his mother's eyes.

    He wonders if his Jiujiu would still recognize him.

    He wonders if he even wanted his Jiujiu to recognize him.

    Summary

    The Ten Stonehearts of the IPC's Strategic Investment Department aren't all that close - at least, not according to the Pier Point rumour mill or interastral tabloids. Emotional connections between them would only be a weakness in their... riskier transactions, so it works out nicely that the best thing you can really say about any of their relationships is that they're professional and cordial. And those who might say differently rarely get a chance to tell the tale.

    Summary

    “Who else are you dragging on board for this project?”

    Instead of answering, Aventurine raises his wine to his lips.

    Behind the rim, there is a smile—cocky, competitive, certain—

    “Someone logical, for your emotions.” Red coats the back of his throat. Red stains the edges of his mouth. Some broken part of his head wants to know if it looks like blood to her.

    He thumbs away the stain. “Don’t worry. You’ll cover his weaknesses, too.”

    “...And yours?” Topaz watches his finger, sipping her own drink.

    Before he frees his flightless inhibitions by emptying his glass, he smiles again—and makes sure it touches the corners of his eyes.

    “Scapegoat, remember?”

    Hypotheticals: filling in the gaps between Topaz, Aventurine, and Ratio.

    Summary

    kink meme prompt: So, when they were younger, Mako and Haru "got married." Fast forward to high school. Maybe Makoto is being flirted with/asked out and Haru pretty much states Makoto is already happily married.

    '“But – I can’t be the bride!” Makoto exclaimed, waving his arms wildly – the ring went flying, bounced off the wall, and landed square in Rin’s laundry basket. “Last time I checked, I wasn’t a girl!”

    Smiling sweetly, Rin pointed to the door. “There’s a bathroom just across the hall if you want to check again.”

    Nagisa collapsed into another round of giggles. Makoto was all ready to continue protesting – he was bigger and stronger than Haru, and he was pretty sure that automatically designated him the groom in this wedding – but found himself silenced by the hand that clamped over his mouth. “Three against one,” Haru said, and then replaced his hand with his lips.'
