    Summary

    Xie Lian finds Yin Yu at the small reflecting pond behind Paradise Manor.
    "Yin Yu," he says gently, sitting next to him.
    "Your Highness."
    "Could you tell me what San Lang was like, before he found me again? How did you two meet?"
    Yin Yu looks down into the pond, watching the ripples distort his face.
    "It's a long story," he says quietly, and begins.

    Or: how Yin Yu met Hua Cheng, how the two of them met Black Water, and what Yin Yu learned about unconditional love and revenge along the way.

    Summary

    When news spreads that the former emperor and his husband have moved into a residence just off the Duanzhou-Libei border, the town reacts with an emotion best described as “respectful hysteria.”

    Naturally, the neighbourhood is not prepared.

    “I’m just saying, if you ever needed money there’d be plenty, so don’t worry about—hey.” He scowls, whipping around to face her. “We’re not friends.”

    “Okay.”

    “I don’t have friends.”

    “Okay.”

    “Xie Lian is the only one I give two shits about.”

    “Hua Cheng,” Yushi Huang says gently, smiling. “It’s okay.”

    The Rain Master befriends her local feral Ghost King—much to the Ghost King's chagrin.

    Summary

    “Andrew.” The pool of blood beneath Andrew’s knuckles was expanding, inching towards the cracks in the tile. Neil was positive he was going to be sick for a multitude of reasons, least of all being the gash across Andrew’s hand.

    It was his shaking, eerily violent jerking so distinctively un-Andrew-like, that was making his stomach turn. He was usually so still — his face, his body, his voice.

    And yet there he was, practically vibrating. Like a ticking time bomb or a scared child. His face was sheet white, his red mouth slightly agape, hazel eyes staring half-lidded at his own blood dripping onto the ground. Crimson was smeared over his white t-shirt, and he must’ve taken off his armbands at some point because the pale gleam of his forearms was in stark contrast to the blood he was covered in. Neil’s entire body was tense. It was so unexpected, so visceral, like seeing a casualty on the road while driving past a car accident. Like Neil wasn’t meant to see it.

    Or,

    The foxes go to a college bar and it goes about as well as you’d expect. Hurt comfort ensues.

    It was really Li Jianheng’s fault.

    “He’s gorgeous,” Li Jianheng said, waving his phone in Xiao Chiye’s face. “He goes by Lanzhou and he started showing up in the tattoos Supertopic on Weibo out of nowhere.”

    Xiao Chiye agreed to a drunken tattoo with Li Jianheng while clubbing.

    He never planned on falling for his tattoo artist.

    Summary

    “You don’t even count as human, and you still want to become an immortal? You’ve missed the optimal time to begin cultivating – what can you become? Even if you muddle along with him, that charlatan Wu Yanzi, he isn’t even guaranteed to want you.”

    Shen Jiu growled, wrenching out of Qiu Jianluo’s grip to hurl an ink stone at him. He missed.

    Shen Jiu saw the change in Qiu Jianluo’s face instantly, the man’s hand rising up and blocking out the glow of candlelight. His towering shadow was Qiong Qi given flesh.

    Shen Jiu’s body froze instinctively as he readied himself for a blow.

    But it never came, because when Shen Jiu managed to look up, all he could see was a man’s broad back swathed in black robes, his grip tight around Qiu Jianluo’s wrist.

    “Qiu-gongzi, what could ever make you think that a charlatan like me wouldn’t want this boy as his disciple?”

    Or: Shen Yuan transmigrates into Wu Yanzi’s body and gets followed around by a feral teenager called Shen Jiu… who is kind of obsessed with him.

    Summary

    The man on the smudged laptop screen, captured in the pixelated glory of Mo Ran’s dashcam footage, stares wide-eyed and vulnerable into the camera as death comes careening towards him. His expression is unguarded, wet hair plastered to pale cheeks, mouth softened as if on the precipice of a gasp, while the livid gleam of the stop light scatters violently red off the slick asphalt, and paints the stranger in a rosy faience.

    He’s beautiful.

    Mo Ran hasn’t been blessed with the most extensive of vocabularies, and can’t give voice to the purple prose a more talented tongue might offer, but he knows beautiful when he sees it. He’s been staring with unrepentant fascination at this same freeze-frame image for over an hour now, captivated, his cramped bedroom illuminated only by the battered laptop’s fifteen-inch display.

    “Liu Qingge! I told you not to drink the water!” Shen Qingqiu shouts. His thoughts are a panicked whirl—is it going to have the same effect that it did in the original story?

    Liu Qingge just stares at him in shock.

    Shen Qingqiu’s question is answered when he suddenly hears Liu Qingge’s voice. Liu Qingge isn’t speaking, though—his mouth never moves. No, Shen Qingqiu is hearing Liu Qingge’s voice inside his head.

    Liu Qingge’s voice says, “Holy shit. I can see his nipples.”

    They both stare at each other in horror. At that moment, there’s a happy little ding and a System notification pops up in front of him.

    [Congratulations! Bonus mission activated: Sharing is Caring!]

    “Fuck,” Shen Qingqiu says, with feeling.

     

    *************

    Shen Qingqiu and Liu Qingge accidentally trigger a wife plot that leads to them forming a telepathic connection.

    Summary

    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!"

     

     

    Lan Jingyi comes of age.

    “You’re going to stay anyway.“

    It’s not a question. Both Feng Xin and Mu Qing have tried to convince him to join them in heaven but he won’t. Shi Qingxuan knows they have little chance of convincing him to eschew solitude, Xie Lian’s mind is not easily changed once he’s decided.

    “I need to be here when he comes back,” Xie Lian says, dropping the cherry back into the basket. He seems to have lost whatever appetite he had a moment ago. “I want him to know that I waited.”

    “Your Highness,” Feng Xin says carefully, “what do you…how much do you remember?”

    “Clearly, he remembers enough,” Mu Qing snaps. He waves an emphatic hand. “He’s happy to see us, isn’t he?”

    “Ah, it’s really alright, I remember most things,” Xie Lian says, placating. “I just don’t…”

    His eyes skitter nervously towards Hua Cheng and then away again; the tension in Hua Cheng’s shoulders, in his entire body, stretches closer to snapping. It feels like every muscle is straining under the weight of this, like every cell in his body is rebelling against this…this horror.

    Still, he manages to say what Xie Lian apparently cannot: “He just doesn’t remember me.”
