Summary
Xie Lian found something in himself that he thought was gone—worn away with every mistake he had made.
Faith.
His arms opened, and the child was hesitant—but eventually, he fell into them, his body trembling with silent sobs.
"I remember you," he whispered again, voice breaking as Hong-er clung to him.
I remember you.
I remember you.
I will always, for as long as I live, remember you.
(A re-telling of TGCF where Xie Lian has his cursed shackle placed in his eyes, blinding him. And yet, through all of his struggles; there is always someone watching over him.)

Summary
When the Earth was scorched by heat and torn apart by extreme storms, Atropos, intended to be a halfway house between the destruction of the planet and new beginnings on the colonies of Mars, became the only city left. Atropos’ population is reliant on the NeuroChip, humanity’s greatest invention since the internet; a brain chip installed at birth that’s designed to regulate health, record personal data and memories, and even connect to electronic devices to use at will. It has improved the population’s intellect and life expectancy, becoming the foundation of the city’s economy and lifestyle - the next step in humanity’s evolution.
Jyn Mara, a rookie detective, is unexpectedly tasked to investigate one of the greatest national security threats that humanity has ever known with veteran detective Levi Ackerman. A computer virus capable of infecting the NeuroChip is spreading quickly. The clock is ticking, but the further she digs, the more baffling and perilous the investigation becomes. Jyn finds herself entangled in an intricate web of lies, and starts to question everything and everyone, including her new partner.

Summary
Levi releases a deep exhale, characteristically stoic but clearly out of his depth. He crosses one leg over the other and gives you a cool, unreadable look.
"I'm saying that, of all the women around me, you're the least insufferable one."
Your answer is polite yet chilly.
"Is that a compliment, sir?"
"It's an offer, Assistant. I'm telling you to marry me."

Summary
''What's wrong? You're burning up rather quickly. This is quite a predicament against how one's body temperature would normally react.''
Ungloved fingers brushed against your hot forehead, as your feverish eyes peered over to see indifferent eyes the color of sapphire. Copious amounts of sweat drew against the line of your brows, and your heavy winter clothes stuck uncomfortably to your skin. Warmth pooled in the naval region, almost enough to make you throw yourself onto Dragonspine's snow to cool down. But even as the howling winds churned outside the cave's campsite, your body continued to boil at abnormal levels.
With a sweat-ridden hand, you lightly slap his fingers away. ''It'd be better...if you left me alone for a while...'' you muttered under your fanning breath.
