    Summary

    Sylvain needs a date to his annual holiday celebration. Claude doesn't have anything better to do. But when Claude meets Dimitri, he runs into a problem - how to flirt with the cutest guy he's ever met when he's there as someone else's date?

    Luckily, Claude has a plan. And it might just get Sylvain what he's always wanted, too.

    Summary

    “Don’t move or you’ll make it worse.”

    Sylvain tried to touch his oozing stomach wound. Next he was going to retort, “Tell me how I can make this any worse.” Then he would die and Felix was going to have to eulogize Sylvain Jose Gautier, last of his bloodline, who wasted his final moments trying to get the last word in.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    It must’ve been over five years ago that Mercedes taught it to him, but these things came naturally to Sylvain, as much as he tried to leave all the good parts of himself to spoil. Felix wondered if he should tell him that. You wasted all that effort. You weren’t actually that good at being unlovable.

    Summary

    Sylvain is chained to the post at the opposite end of the small wooden cage. He’s curled up on himself from the pain of being kicked in the stomach, but when he meets Felix’s gaze, he grins and says, “I don’t think that one likes me.”

    “But you’re so likable,” Felix says stonily.

    “They’re retrofitting it for a new set of sorcerers?” Nanami asks, but that can’t be it—otherwise word would have made it to LOCCENT and he wouldn’t have heard it out of legal first.

    Higuruma shakes his head. The look in his eyes could plunge a Jaeger to the bottom of the Pacific. “The higher-ups would aren’t wasting Gojo Satoru—not when he’s still got time on his contract. The recovery year they gave him was generous. They’re putting him back in that cockpit, and they’re in the process of figuring out who they can shove in there with him.”

    Summary

    Lan Wangji wasn't privy to the conversations that took place among Yiling staff, but there was always an apologetic, tense edge to the tech's voice when someone else took over his missions. As if Wei Ying had put the fear of God into them if they let anything happen to Lan Wangji when Wei Ying was not personally available to oversee him.

    "Something like that," Mianmian told him. "Anyway, it's not like there's anything for either of you to be jealous over. None of the other agents prefer him."

    Summary

    "This was a terrible idea," Yuri hisses, and Yuuri reaches over and touches his wrist. Yuuri is not a tactile person and Yuri will maul anyone who tries to touch him, but a month ago Yuuri found him sobbing in the space between the vending machines at the rink, and it was hard to go back once someone had held you through the brink of your despair.

     

    Yuri deals with the mortifying ordeal of being known.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "Victor's pretty disgusting," Yuri sobs, and Yuuri slides along the couch, gathers him up into the type of cuddle Yuri would viciously deny he has been dying for Yuuri to give him for most of his adolescent life.

    "I hate to tell you this," Yuuri murmurs, rubbing his back, "but Victor is not really that into you."

    Yuri's laugh is a fragile thing, hiccupped out through his teeth. He sniffs into Yuuri's shoulder. "You two are the only... not straight people I know."

    "I don't think that's true. But I do understand if you think I am less obviously flamboyant than Victor. Even if I do wear more glitter than he does."

    Yuuri looks so much better in glitter, so much better in most things – he is twenty-six years old, and somehow manages to make a cat-earred beanie look elegant and purposeful. He's slender and agelessly beautiful; Victor's broader frame and strong jaw could never pull off half the things Yuuri wears both by choice and in the editorials he is photographed in. Yuri has no idea how Katsudon manages it, off ice he dresses like a mannequin from the Gap, but his ability to wear a red-lined half-skirt and have it fly completely under the radar is a skill. Victor wears bespoke three-piece suits, sharply tailored knee-length coats and wing-tip brogues, and he still reads less masculine than Yuuri does standing next to him in a backless costume where the top is comprised solely of illusion netting and strategically placed sequins.

    Summary

    In the end, Lan Wangji will tie A-Yuan's forehead ribbon on with the lover's knot reserved for weddings, will write his name Lan Yuan, for hope and honesty, and choose the courtesy name Sizhui, in honour of the man who Lan Wangji will raise him for. He will go into seclusion to calm himself as the Elders required. Though his mind had settled as soon as Sizhui reached tiny, reverent fingers up to touch the cloud on his forehead, and shyly asked, in his little voice, if he might tie Baba's ribbon on for him too.

     

    "This is how I will live," Lan Wangji promised the altar in the cold pond, kneeling where he'd once sworn a different oath, hand-fasted before an Elder, with the boy who'd claimed his heart. "Upholding justice, and raising our son."
     

    Lan Wangji drinks to remember, and also to forget.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This child… is mine! I gave birth, giggled a memory, and Lan Wangji stifled a sob into his sheets. There were procedures, as well, for when the mother died in childbirth, or the father was slain in duty. Rules and regulations for every scenario, but nothing to explain how a ribbon should be tied on the last surviving member of a condemned clan, lovingly nurtured in extreme conditions by a pariah, and smuggled into the Cloud Recesses by a hero fallen from grace. It made him bark a soft, tragic laugh; how Wei Wuxian would enjoy circumventing all their careful traditions, how he'd grin to know he'd broken the mold yet again.

    “Gege...” he says, voice trailing off.

    “What’s wrong, San Lang?” Xie Lian asks, glancing at the bed too. It looks pretty normal, minus the blanket he’d given Hua Cheng. “Do you not like cats? I can shoo Ruoye away...”

    “No, gege, it’s just...You don’t have a bed.”

    Xie Lian blinks and glances back at his bed, “uh? I do?”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Kita’s voice rises out of the cloudy afternoon, lifting the shroud of silence. “Staring.”

    “I’m not.” Atsumu touches his fingertips to the side of his face, checks himself, realizes Kita’s right.

    “You were always terrible at hiding things.” Kita hides his laugh behind a slender wrist and Atsumu is punched violently in the stomach with the urge to tug his hand away from his face. Just a moment will do. If he can see Kita Shinsuke laugh again, maybe he will discover something new about the universe, like where people go when they die and why teenagers only know how to express desire in diminutives.

    From the moment Suna slides behind the counter after closing to ask if he can make an onigiri too, Osamu knows he’ll be absolute shit at it.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Osamu likes to think that he’s cleverer than Atsumu--and he is, he’s pretty sure, just by dint of knowing when to keep his mouth shut more often than his brother does--but he’s ultimately from the same knuckleheaded stock. Rintarou Suna is not a knucklehead. Rintarou Suna has made a career out of his talent for manipulating defenses, and has always been able to outmaneuver Osamu under the table when he puts in the slightest effort.

    Summary

    He Tian hisses as Guan Shan peels away the soaked fabric of his shirt from damp skin. There’s no puncture wounds; instead, there’s a bruise the size of Guan Shan’s fist in He Tian’s side, and Guan Shan doesn’t know how much of his wound sits beneath the surface of his skin like an iceberg.

    ‘You could have broken somethin’.’

    ‘Feels like it,’ says He Tian.

    ‘You might—you could have internal bleeding.’

    ‘Probably.’

    ‘Whatever,’ he mutters. And then: ‘Thanks.’

    ‘What for?’

    ‘Don’t make me spell it out,’ Guan Shan gripes.

    He Tian doesn’t. He goes quiet, breathing evening out, and they both simmer. Guan Shan can feel He Tian’s heart beating against his cheek through He Tian’s shoulders, the width of them broad and strong, his skin smooth. Guan Shan’s hand lies gently against his chest, which rises and falls beneath his palm. His eyelids have started to grow heavy; he finds he doesn’t mind that his back is bared.

    Uncle's jaw works in the way that suggests he's about to say something irredeemable. Jin Ling, in a move of diplomacy he hopes the Chief Cultivator appreciates, distracts him with spicy food and his favourite subject: the incompetence of his own officials.

    "I hear the lakes in the south east are having drainage problems?" he asks nonchalantly, sticking three big slices of braised pork belly into his Uncle's bowl.

    Zizhen always says the right thing. From that very first visit, when he’d dropped in to Carp Tower, smiling from ear to ear, asking if Jin Ling, newly crowned as Sect Leader, wanted to go for a night hunt. And Jin Ling, incredulous, overwhelmed and running solely on the fumes of his panic, had torn into him viciously, screaming about how many responsibilities and expectations were piling up on him, so no, he'd couldn't just run off and night hunt whenever he felt like it. And Zizhen had stared at him, eyes watering in what Jin Ling thought was betrayal and the quick end of his friendships with everyone, and said That's so awful, how can I help you? And then he stayed, and he helped, and Jin Ling fell in love with his generous kindness, and his sentimental heart, and the beautiful way he smiled.

    The melody gets a little clearer when he breaks out of the trees, and Jingyi changes course with certainty, barreling down the back hill and through the Cloud Recesses, dodging scandalized disciples left and right. He throws open the doors to the Receiving Hall without announcement and bows nearly double, eyes on the floor instead of on the shocked faces of the Mei delegation and the impenetrable gaze of the Chief Cultivator.

    "Forgive this disciple," Jingyi shouts, because he's going to get punished for rule breaking regardless. "From the back hill, Hanguang-jun, there is a song in the wind!"

    Summary

    There was no blood. No char. There was nothing to see except the strange softening of the Yiling Patriarch's mouth, as if just for a moment he was another person entirely.

    "There is the mark of our bargain, and here is the challenge," said the Yiling Patriarch. "You may strike at me, exactly once, with your sword. I will not fight back; I will not resist you at all, Hanguang-jun." That silvery suggestiveness crept into his voice again. "And a year and a day from now, you will come to me and I will deliver exactly the same to you."

    Lan Wangji heard his brother's voice raised in sharp and incomprehensible protest. His own heart was beating too loudly for him to hear anything else.

    His brother would have been very surprised, Lan Wangji thought, to know that he was spending his time scrubbing vegetables and talking to a young farmer about life in the Cloud Recesses: the library, the disciples, the comfort of meditation practice, the mist that swallowed the green-drenched hills and released them again. The calls of birds cutting through a cold and pristine dusk. Lan Wangji had no idea he had so much poetry inside him about his home, until Wei Wuxian turned his bright torch of a smile upon him and found it all.
