  1. Summary

    "Ferromagnetic materials have a large, positive susceptibility to an external magnetic field. They exhibit a strong attraction to magnetic fields and are able to retain their magnetic properties after the external field has been removed.

    When a ferromagnetic material is in the unmagnetized state, the domains are nearly randomly organized and the net magnetic field for the part as a whole is zero.

    When a magnetizing force is applied, the domains become aligned to produce a strong magnetic field within the part."
    - Paraphrased from Iowa State University's Center for Non-Destructive Evaluation

    A Steampunk AU with Mute by Choice!Xiao and Gig Muscian!Venti.

    Summary

    “Do you really want to go to school?”

    The question startles Collei out of her excitement. She looks up at him with wide eyes, surprised, a spoonful of Padisarah pudding halfway to her mouth.

    “You’re not just saying that because Tighnari suggested it, right?” he questions.

    Collei lowers the spoon and shakes her head vehemently. “No, of course not!” she exclaims. “I — I like my homeschooling with Tighnari, and he’s always very patient and kind when he teaches me, but it’s… well… I just…” She glances down towards the table, fidgeting with her hands. “I think it’d be nice. To go to school. I never really got to do that before — before everything.”

    ‘Everything’ is a word far too small to encompass all of Collei’s everything, Cyno thinks.

    Summary

    After decades of violent war, peace between the nations of Parnassus and Promare has finally been established by the promised union of Prince Galo Thymos and Regent Lio Fotia. The two have never met, but their wedding is suddenly the most important event in recent history and they know that millions of lives are riding on their ability to get along, or, at least, their ability to fake it for the cameras.

    Unfortunately, neither are the type to just sit back and let things happen.

    Summary

    Xingqiu had told Chongyun, all those years ago, most of the truth - that he’d gotten his Vision in the rainstorm that had pummelled Liyue Harbor while Chongyun had been recuperating from his disastrous Dragonspine expedition, that perhaps even the Archons had known not to separate Xingqiu and Chongyun in any way. It had been half a joke, but Chongyun had accepted it with a pleased smile.

    He doesn’t know what it says about him that he remembers, with aching clarity, that moment where he’d been so coldly angry about not being able to protect Chongyun that he’d attracted the attention of the Archons themselves. Every time he touches his Vision, he gets a flash of that frigid, relentless part of himself.

    And it feels ugly.

    .

    Xingqiu learns, over the years, what it means to have a Hydro Vision.

    Summary

    As a boy, Prince Yuuri imagined that the only person he could ever marry was Victor Tsarevich, the magician prince of the distant Nikiforovan Empire. But Victor died before his 18th birthday, and seven years later a giant bear saves Yuuri’s life, then requests his hand in marriage as repayment. The mysterious Vitya (part-time bear / cursed magician) needs a handsome prince to break his spell; Yuuri (handsome prince / part-time magician) wants to learn more magic, and so they come to an arrangement.

    (An AU inspired by “East o’ the Sun and West o’ the Moon” and all my other favorite Monster Bridegroom/Missing Husband fairy tales)
