    Summary

    Lan Wangji is staring at him with shockingly alert eyes.

     

    “Ah. Burger Man,” he says stoically. Wei Wuxian has a really hard time telling if the man is serious or fucking with him. But given that he has never seen the man being anything other than serious, he assumes that he’s probably drunk.

     

    “Yeah, I’m the Burger Man. And you’re Lan Wangji. Do you normally spend your Friday nights sitting on the street like this?” he asks.

     

    Lan Wangji looks around, as if he had not been aware they were on a street in the middle of the city. Had he blacked out? How much had he drunk? Was he on any drugs? There was no real way for Wei Wuxian to know.

     

    “Do not,” Lan Wangji finally responds, frowning at the pavement like it’s its fault that he’s sitting on it.

     

    Or, Wei Wuxian is slightly obsessed with the Hot Customer at work. After running into him on a night out, and consequently figuring out he has a kid, he somehow talks himself into getting to babysit said kid. So what if he starts crushing on this man who is obviously taken? Wei Wuxian has everything under control.

    Summary

    It turned out that all Meng Yao had to do to turn his fortunes in life around was find a beautiful man in a ditch, save his life by wagering his own cultivation, and allow everyone to assume they were legitimately married.

    (or: Meng Yao vs every single marriage-related trope: FIGHT.)

    Summary

    Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and slowly let it out. “We need an actual expert on creepy dead shit. I can’t believe I’m fucking saying this, but we need Wei Wuxian.”
    Jin Ling asked, “Do you think he’ll come? You weren’t very polite to him the last time you talked.”
    Jiang Cheng snorted. “I’ve never been polite to him. He’ll come. He won’t be able to resist the chance to make me miserable.

     

    When Jin Ling and Jiang Cheng stumble across Xue Yang's old Corpse Refinery, they call in the only expert they can think of, plus his husband and two juniors. But Xue Yang's experiments have left a bigger mess than anyone expected, and as Wei Wuxian knows, not everything dead stays that way.

    Will they uncover the secrets hidden in the Corpse Refinery? Will the juniors have an educational experience? Will Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng manage to have a civil conversation? Some of these are more likely than others.

    Summary

    Come along, September, and listen for the lie. I am a kind and rather attached narrator, so I have accompanied you on many adventures. When you died at the Derby for the last Green Wind, you became one yourself. And now I will tell you one of the secrets of being a Wind. Winds know how to hear things along the currents of the air around them, things like lies and people's feelings and some of the greatest works of Quiet Physicks. You know the truth deep inside, Green. You can listen now as you never could as a little girl, not even as one of the Ravished, and tuck Truths into your green smoking jacket.

    Summary

    There was one gamble he’d taken and continued to take. From the moment he’d made the recommendation, to every day his gamble continued to live with no restrictions. Jin Guangyao had not only taken his chances in a very raw version of what he usually participated in, but had also set a knife to his own damn throat. Its metaphorical blade shone brightly, reflecting a slice of light across the delicate flesh. A promise, a sign, that his blood would spill if he didn’t quit while he was ahead.

    Or

    Jin Guangyao takes his chances with Xue Yang. Xue Yang constantly proves himself to be a little menace, and Jin Guangyao has a growing urge to put him in his place.

    Summary

    It was moments like this one which made Cordelia acutely aware of how adapted – of how bloody Barrayarran she had become. Because Simon was quite literally bloody, his dark clothes made even darker with his own blood, and yet she was standing back and letting him continue issuing orders to his ImpSec drones as if this was a usual once-a-month sort of emergency.

    'ImpMil is on its way, my lord,' Simon replied evenly. 'Ten minutes at the outset.' He didn't add, It's a miracle you're not scraping the both of us off the surface of some rock, and you ought to be grateful.

    Summary

    He knows Jin Guangyao thinks he keeps Chenqing in the vault.

    Jiang Cheng has kept Wei Wuxian’s awful relative-murdering flute on his person for ten years, and if the lingering air of resentment is having detrimental effects on his personality, it’s not like anyone would be able to tell.

    No, the relic of Wei Wuxian in the deepest Jiang vault is far more precious, and far more vile.

    Summary

    I know you must be angry and upset with me. You have every right to be, and I can't even apologize, because if I had made other choices, I wouldn't have you. So I can't ever be sorry. I want you not to be sorry either.

    The morning after the fighting, he'd told me earnestly that she'd made a terrible mistake and she'd apologized to him and asked him to forgive her and he had, and I'd nearly gnashed his entire face off in a frothing rage.

    Summary

    Preservation is one of the last standing Golden Enclaves of legend, founded on the principle of not leaving a single living thing behind. Arada, newly a junior in the Scholomance, embodies that principle beyond what her fellow students (even the preservationers) would like, most of the time.

    "Kate was well-known as one of the best xenolinguists in the sector. She had studied dozens of alien languages in her long career, and was renowned for helping to decode one of the ancient languages of Andoria.

    Now her task for the next six months was simply to work out how to communicate with a single Tamarian cadet - the first ever to join Starfleet - and get him ready to go to the Academy.

    It wasn’t going to be easy."

    Summary

    Following the events of Connection Test Start, one doctor from Preservation Alliance decides to make things right and sets out for the Corporation Rim, hoping to unearth and eventually bring to justice a certain humanitarian-cum-terrorist organisation. Utterly unprepared for the reality of the Rim, the good doctor finds far more horrors than they ever bargained for—but also many more friends than they expected. Nobody is what they seem to be, and now Dr. Mrinal must decide what to do with what they have discovered and live with their choice.

    Traditionally, the work is complete (with only technical edits remaining as of the time of posting), and the posting schedule is Wed/Fri/Sun.

    Summary

    I should take you back to camp. Wake Wei laoshi and your sister and tell them how I found you. Tell them what you told me. He pauses, head cocked to one side. They don’t know, do they?

    You swallow- nothing more than a remembered nervous reflex, now- as you avert your eyes from his piercing gaze.

    Xue Yang sees your throat bob and his smile grows wider, baring the tips of pointed incisors.

    I should... but I don’t think either of us wants that. Am I right, Wen Ning?

    //

    Wen Ning is struggling to come to terms with his new lot in un-life; Xue Yang might be able to give him what he needs.

    Summary

    “Do not touch me,” A-Yin said, the smile ever-present on his face, though the softer affectations he had put on his voice before had fallen away leaving only the familiar cadence of Wei Ying. “If you have such nefarious intentions, gongzi, you would do well to discuss them with our Madam.”
    “Wei Ying,” Lan Wangji breathed out. His heart felt like it was unfolding in his chest. Warm, blossoming hope curling from within and filling the empty cavity that had been cold and gaping since Wei Ying had gone missing.

    ~
    Lan Wangji comes looking for Wei Ying in Yiling when he and Jiang Wanyin have no success in finding him after vanishing for three months. Lan Wangji was certainly not expecting to find him working as a courtesan.
