    Summary

    Still off balance, Buck slams his left heel onto the roof, heaving forward to catch the collar of that yellow shirt. And there’s no conscious decision making here. It’s all instinct, and he’s grateful for it. If he’d given his overzealous mind the chance to consider another way, he would have missed his shot. Instead, his arms hurl the boy into the hands of another survivor...

    And his right foot misses the edge.

    OR

    Buck catches Chris before he rolls off the firetruck, and it's him who falls back into the retreating waters of the tsunami. Unconscious and seriously injured, he's unaware that his team has been searching for him, never giving up as the days pass.

    About a week after starting back at the 118, and about three weeks before he was supposed to start getting a steady check again, Buck quietly moved out of his loft—

    —and into his jeep.

    Summary

    “Excuse me, are you Buck?” A tentative voice calls out from his left, cutting off whatever it is that Bobby had just been about to say. He turns to see a woman walking over, smiling at him like she’s greeting an old friend.

    “I’m.. uh, yes?” He replies, ears still ringing with the words exhausting and suck it up and bail me out of jail.

    Her answering grin is delighted and Buck can’t remember the last time someone was so happy to see him.

    -

    In which Buck is recognised by someone he saved during the tsunami and it’s the catalyst that knocks some much needed sense into everyone.

    Lena “in my defence no one here emotes in a healthy way” Bosko also hammers home some truths into Bobby’s skull.

    Summary

    If Eddie was feeling charitable, he might have described the mood in the Diaz household tonight as quiet. Serene. Peaceful.

    He’s not feeling charitable. It’s tense, and awkward, and Eddie’s so fucking pissed that he wants to hit things. But he’s a changed man after his mandated therapy sessions with Frank, so he can’t even do that.

    ***
    Eddie and Buck talk about Abby after the train derailment in 3x18, and tensions get a little high.

    Summary

    Loneliness is an insidious thing. When Merlin looks at Arthur, he sees not just a prince waiting for his time to rule, but a young man struggling to find his place in the world, with little help from anyone else.

    The truth is, Arthur needs more than the friendship Merlin can offer. He needs people he can trust: men and women who will become his court and his confidants, and if he is going to survive to take the throne and lead Camelot into its golden age, he needs them sooner rather than later.

    Finding loopholes in Uther’s laws is no easy feat. Court life is a dangerous game, but it’s one Merlin has every intention of winning so that Arthur can have knights of his choosing by his side.

    And then there is the matter of his magic…

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian gets caught sneaking into Cloud Recesses.

    But since he can't tell the truth - that he's just here to deliver his teacher's most recent love letter to her soulmate who's stuck in a cave - he tells a lie instead. He says that he's a Jiang disciple that had arrived late and so had snuck in through the gates. He hadn't expected the lie to work, sure that it would unravel as soon as they found a Jiang to verify it, but instead Jiang Yanli backs up his story, and even adds to it.

    Which is how he ends up masquerading as the first disciple of Lotus Pier while trying to figure out how to get out of Cloud Recesses without anyone discovering that he's the disciple of Baoshan Sanren.

    “You’re not supposed to be in Gotham.”
    “No,” Clark agrees.
    “The Big Bad Bat will be pissed.”
    “We go back a little ways,” Clark says. “I think he’ll forgive me.”
    Jason flicks the ash off the cigarette tip. “So?”
    “I heard you were alive.” This is the polite way to put it. He does not mention Bruce showing up at his apartment in a state, scaring his neighbors, probably compromising them both.

    Clark has some conversations: one on a rooftop with a dead boy, and several with his grieving father.

    Summary

    It is said that for centuries, two men stood vigil over the happenings of the cultivation world.

    The legends are many: according to some, they are the only people who ever managed to cultivate to immortality. Others say they are married, and they lived as soulmates through the rise and fall of empires. The stories have been told for so long, their real names have been forgotten... They’re the stuff of legend now, known only by their ancient titles, Hanguang-jun and the Yiling Patriarch.

    Most people don’t even believe they exist: there’s been rumored sightings all over the continents and the centuries – wherever chaos was, they appeared – but their description was always different, like a fleeting, fickle mirage. Some people believe in them, and even revere them; some fear them.

    Some despise them: if there’s one thing governments hate, it’s a powerful entity they can’t rule over and control – and if these two actually exist, that’s exactly what they are.

    Powerful. Uncontrollable. Untamed.

     
    AKA: Today's world but cultivation is still around. Wangxian are ridiculously powerful but have to hide their identities because they're public enemy number one!

    Summary

    Rolling thunder shook the Heavenly Realm, tremors nearly toppled whole palaces, and a bright shot of light illuminated the Martial Square. A new ascension had taken place, and amid the chaos stood a new God donned in black robes with a red ribbon fluttering in his hair.

    Wei Wuxian, a villain who murdered three thousand cultivators at Nightless City, shocks the world when he ascends to Godhood. With him, he brings a lowly doctor and a fierce corpse, and he meets no rule that he won't break. The Heavens are shocked and offended by his very presence, and talk about him is endless. The noble, graceful Martial God Lan Wangji, one of the Twin Jades from the Palace of Lan, becomes entangled with him, and a plague brought on by wicked cultivation strikes the populace. One of them the pride of Heaven, the other its shame, two Gods work together to unravel who is responsible and how they can stop the plague from claiming the lives of the ones Wei Wuxian loves.

    After his death at the first siege of the Burial Mounds, Wei Wuxian is thrown back in time to when he was nine years old, just before Jiang Fengmian took him to Lotus Pier with its wavering affection and unpayable mountain of debts. He decides to take the second chance he has been offered, to live freely and without regrets.

    As it turns out, a life without regrets involves:
    1. Avoiding all attempts to be adopted so you can launch your career as a rogue-cultivating-assassin, while
    2. Juggling a hit-list comprised of the cultivation world’s Who’s Who, and
    3. Desperately missing your not-boyfriend who picked the worst ever timing to confess his undying love for you.

    Murder and mayhem to follow.

    “I’m sorry Gege, I’m just a bit surprised. Let me make sure I am understanding this correctly,” he said, taking half a step forward. “You are real and also asleep. I am also real, and not a figment of your imagination. We are both real, and asleep, and dreaming the same dream right now.”

    Xie Lian shrugged. “It looks like it.”

    When Xie Lian gets hit by a curse, he winds up sharing his dreams with a certain ghost king who would very much like to know where he is in real life.

    Summary

    The Patriarch had joked about putting him in a veil, but Lan Wangji refused outright, the only piece of autonomy he’d demanded for the whole thing. Being covered like that, trapped, would have made him panic. He might have let tears drip down his cheeks if he hadn’t had to worry about anyone seeing his face.

    As Lan Wangji bowed, he thought of his mother, and he almost wept anyway.


    In an effort to keep the Yiling Patriarch from destroying their own sects like he’d destroyed Wen Ruohan’s, the Great Sects band together an offer him an alliance in the form of a marriage.

    Who better to offer than the Second Jade of Lan?
