    Summary

    Waking up with a headache is pretty high up on Haitham’s personal ladder of annoyances. Waking up with a headache and no memories of the previous night isn’t a covered variation, but it must be two or three steps above, at most. But waking up with a headache and no memories of the previous night and the half-naked form of the General Mahamatra himself sleeping next to him, in his own bed? That doesn’t belong on the ladder. Or maybe it would, if the ladder shot up into space and reached the moon. In that case, this third option would be right up there, frolicking on the lunar surface.

    His head hurts. Cyno is sleeping next to him. Those are the facts, but there’s no correlation between them. No discernible cause. All he has is the glaring question: what happened last night?

    ————————————

    Alhaitham wakes up with some unexpected company and no recollection of the previous night. Kaveh has a (very impure) theory about what might have happened.

    Summary

    Kaveh.

    Kaveh leans closer to Sage Naphis. Reaches out, pressing his forehead against the sage’s bare hand. Paying his respects to an old teacher, head bowed, dupattā falling forward for the breath of a moment and cloaking him from Alhaitham's desperate gaze.

    Five years ago, Kaveh disappeared from the Akademiya.

    Now, Alhaitham watches his old friend ascend back up the dais, ghaghra rippling around pearl strung ankles, and seat himself on the lap of the king.

    or

    kaveh left him once.

    in the flickering firelight, kaveh's lashes are steeped to a burnished gold. his eyes are dark, his breaths shallow, as alhaitham murmurs of love and pleasure in tongues long lost.

    kaveh left him once. alhaitham will not let it happen twice.

    here: alhaitham, kaveh and a love that kills.

    Summary

    “The Anemo Archon is in danger. He collapsed and has not woken for days. We have reason to suspect an elemental affliction, but we—”

    “What?” Zhongli does not raise his voice. But it feels as though the rest of the world goes silent instead, as though the earth itself shudders and echoes in his wake.

    “Is he hurting?” he asks, voice dipping sharply on the last syllable.

    Amber tries to read his expression: that stony, unshakeable surface, and the tremors that lurk underneath. “No,” she responds, as gently as possible.

    There’s a taut silence. Zhongli looks back at her, and as she meets that gaze, she thinks of her yeye’s stories, stories of his homeland and its god-protector: that exalted figure who stood like a pillar through the storm, who conquered fear at every battle, who time and time again stared down death unflinching. And as Amber remembers these stories, it terrifies her to think: what could make someone like that afraid?

    “Take me to him,” Morax says finally. “I must see him.”

    Summary

    Anonymous on tumblr: do you have a skin that would mimic the author’s notes and review/kudos buttons section from the end of a fic? the desired effect being that the fic could go on after the “end” of the fic, so after the author’s notes and review/kudos buttons

    Here's a tutorial/live example to do just that, with some of the buttons actually functioning. I'll explain more inside!

    Summary

    “Of course, if you’d rather find me at the dump looking for inspiration again, then — ”

    “Alright! Alright, you win,” Gepard waves a hand, exasperated. “I’ll pick out the flowers for you.”

    Stelle crosses her arms in an undeniably smug fashion. “That always works.”

    “I wonder why. Not like you’d end up in the hospital for fifty different airborne diseases otherwise.”

    Stelle bursts into a laugh. Gepard goes very, very still at the sound, his face flushing, a smile growing on his lips —

    And something in Pela’s brain clicks.

    (Or, Pela watches a real life rendition of a most beloved fanfiction trope unfold before her very eyes.)

    Caelus cannot even begin to fathom how March 7th and Dan Heng are entirely unaffected by the cold.

    Summary

    After Signora's death, Pantalone makes a rather unconventional suggestion to Pierro. After all, this is the perfect occasion to remove a thorn from the Fatui's side while solving the problem of the Eighth's empty spot. The other Harbingers don't need to know that the candidate happens to be his enemy-with-benefits.

    He thinks it's an excellent plan.

    However, after Yelan becomes friends with the two Harbingers who despise him the most, makes him look like a fool in three consecutive meetings, and drops someone's severed head on his three billion Mora carpet, he begins to reconsider the so-called "genius" of his idea.

    Summary

    It’s funny; when Jason first returned to Gotham, he made his entire brand about no longer trusting Batman to save him. Now, after so long of being back in the family he’d once said goodbye to, Jason’s foolish confidence that nothing could hurt him while Bruce was around only led to his second downfall.

    After that, it was child’s play for the Joker to send out a distress signal from Jason’s tracker to lure Batman here, warning him to come alone. Bruce is not one to take that kind of threat lightly, after everything.

    Then, through a video feed sent with Jason’s own helmet tech, the Joker lays it out for Batman: two warehouses, two bombs, two victims. One Batman.

    "Before," Clark asks, a glass of whiskey that has absolutely no effect on him whatsoever held loosely in his hands, "Why did you hate me?"

    "Well," Bruce hums, downing the rest of his own glass in one sweep for an ounce of courage, "You killed my children."
