    Summary

    “Chishiya!”

     

    That was the final thing Chishiya heard— the scream tearing itself from Kuina’s throat with as much terror as desperation, even as the familiar screeching of tires followed— along with the unfathomable ringing of his ears, before, against his intention and better judgement, Chishiya failed to avoid the explosion that followed.

    After dying at the hands of the King of Spades’ attack, Chishiya finds himself gaining consciousness in an oddly familiar executive meeting, later coming to the conclusion that he’s stuck in a time loop.

    Summary

It wasn’t exactly in his strengths, to heal someone, but Xiao Xingchen was not. allowed. to. die.

    Or

    Something goes wrong on a night hunt that leaves Xiao Xingchen injured, Xue Yang has to reconsider the priorities in his revenge plan, because that's still what he wants. Right? So why does the sight of blood on those white robes make him feel so unwell?

    Summary

    Lan Xichen died quietly, as he had lived— composed and alone.

    Ten years after the fall of Jin Guangyao, grief hollowed him out until even breathing felt like penance. But death offers no peace. Instead, it drags him back to a time before betrayal, before blood stained the Golden Carp Tower, before his heart was broken by the man he loved in silence.

    This time, Lan Xichen carries the weight of knowing everything… and the question of whether he should change fate, or simply savor the days he once took for granted.

    He has already lost him once.
    Can he bear to lose him again?

    Summary

    It’s not Wei Wuxian’s fault that A-Yuan thinks he’s a rabbit, or Jiang Cheng’s fault that toddler Jin Ling used to Zidian to short out the city’s power, but they are stuck going to family counseling, along with a bored Lan Wangji, a giggly Xiao Xingchen, an out-to-lunch Lan Xichen, an indignant Meng Yao, and a chipper Xue Yang. A lonely (and crushing on JC) Nie Huaisang gets in on the action by sneaking into the dozens of group chats and sending way too many gifs.
