    Summary

    “Hm, this kinda calls for a more intimate shot, right?” Xiaoshi noted as he stared at Lu Guang through the viewfinder. “Maybe if we hugged, right? I'll turn the flash off, just let the moon illuminate us."

    Just hug him back, then. He nodded again, a little excited for the shot. Xiaoshi pressed a button or two on his camera and then quickly ran back over towards the railing. He held his arms open. Lu Guang wrapped his arms around Xiaoshi, turned his head inwards and shut his eyes.

    Ten seconds passed, and Xiaoshi let him go again, running back towards the camera to check the picture. “Ahguang, come look, what do you think?”

    Lu Guang stared at the screen. ‘Intimate’ was probably a good word to describe it. Was this really the sort of photo Xiaoshi would want to mark the start of their friendship?

    [Lu Guang's been nonverbal for the past eighteen years of his life. He's used to relying on his parents for everything, but desperately wants for independence. After he meets Cheng Xiaoshi by chance and they become friends, he wonders if he can be his ticket to escaping]

    Summary

    Cheng Xiaoshi spends the next several minutes just staring at the photograph, his finger running gently down the curve of Lu Guang's sunlit features. His mother's voice sounds from the back of his head.

    The photograph is a window into the photographer's soul. Look, baobei, what does this photo tell you about the person who took it? What emotions do they feel?

    Attraction. Longing. Desire. It might as well be written in Sharpie over Lu Guang's face, big bold characters in Cheng Xiaoshi's handwriting.

    Fuck. He really has been blind.

    Over the course of a year, Cheng Xiaoshi learns to see what's been right in front of him this entire time. (Or, familiarity as a love language.)

    Summary

    Cheng Xiaoshi, all in all, loves working with Lu Guang. It’s not much heavy work, mostly just helping people and making sure no one is doing anything stupid, like hiding a body in the vanishing storage room. Though he’s already sat there for an hour and didn’t disappear, so he’s thankfully disproved that myth.

     

    (Lu Guang runs a magic store and Cheng Xiaoshi needs a job.)

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian didn’t imagine acquiring a cat like this, nor did he imagine acquiring a fluffy white cat that, even covered in dirt and debris and clutched to a four-year-old’s chest like a teddy bear, manages to give the impression it’s judged his entire life and found it deeply wanting.

    “Uh, A’Yuan,” he asks slowly, just in case this is a hallucination. “Who’s this?”

    “A cat,” A’Yuan says proudly, leaning his round cheek against the top of the cat’s head, while the cat continues to look at Wei Wuxian like he’s wearing week-old clothes covered in food stains.

    Or: Wei Wuxian gets a cat, and then a boyfriend, both of which are a surprise.

    Summary

    Phainon, an angel sent to dispatch the sinners of Earth. Mydei, the crown prince of Hell on the run.

    Somehow, both end up as roommates. An angel and a demon, ending up as roommates? Nothing could go wrong, right?

    Right???

    Summary

    ”I thought—“ Mydeimos faltered. “I thought the songs were about somebody else. I though—“

    “What, Hephaestion?” Phainon snapped. “You think I wrote a whole album about watching the guy you’re dating?”

    Mydeimos blinked. What.

    “What are you talking about? I’m not—I’m not dating Hephaestion.

    Phainon’s mouth dropped open. He blinked, anger dissipating into incredulous disbelief. “You’re not?”

    ”No,” Mydeimos said, too loudly, too quickly. “Where did you even get that idea?”

     

    Or: Two solo albums and a world tour later, Mydeimos finds himself forced to sing love songs written by the love of his life, about somebody else.

    Summary

    Tucked between two large cargo containers was a small, label-less box. Phainon reached for it instinctively.
    Smooth, dark velvet container, small enough to fit in one palm, at first glance it reminded him of those boxes that used to hold engagement rings in movies and commercials. Curiosity won over him as he untied the crimson ribbon around it and opened the box.
    Inside was a silver ring.
    Simple. Elegant. And completely out of place.

    During one of his deliveries, Phainon finds a little box that reminds him of someone special.

    Summary

    “Has there really been nobody who catches your eye over the last 2 years?” Mydei asks quietly. Is it a trick of the light or was there… hesitance in those golden eyes?

    Phainon squints at him, trying to figure him out. But it’s not like Mydei to be obtuse, the man had always been straightforward, sometimes to an infuriating degree. With Mydei, you can always be sure he only says what he means, so Phainon doesn’t think too much about it when he shakes his head.

    “No.”

    “Nobody at all?” Mydei asks again.

    Phainon, desperate to find love, begs his best friend Mydei to be his dating coach. After all, Mydei is so perfect, his opinion has to be worth his weight in gold, right?
    It’s not like he ever had a chance with the man himself anyway.

    As for Mydei, what’s a guy to do when his best friend, who he’s secretly in love with, asks him for dating advice? Earnestly help while locking away his own feelings, of course.

    Summary

    “You can do me a favor,” Nice says, smiling, “pick up your chair, and straighten up your desk while you’re at it. Keyboard, mouse, that cup of pens that apparently only exists for you to chew on — throw those out, actually, that’s disgusting. I can’t do it myself and it’s making my skin crawl.” He sighs, rolls his eyes. “You’d think being dead would at least mean the OCD isn’t a factor, but I guess the only real perk is not being alive.”

    He says it so casually, so cavalier — like what can you do? — that Lin Ling briefly wonders if he’s insane for having such a strong reaction to Nice’s apparent death.

    Oh, god. Dead. Nice is dead.

    Lin Ling stares at Nice. Nice smiles back, hollow eyed and no less smug for it.

    He’s dead and he’s haunting… my office building?

    Summary

    “Sooo…” Tribbie begins, soundly smacking her lips.

    “What a situation,” Aglaea laments.

    “I wonder who will help him,” is Trinnon’s two cents.

    “Now’s your cue, De,” Trianne whispers at him from in between her tiny hands, like it wasn't damn obvious his fate was sealed the moment they all looked at him.

    “Splendid idea. Leave it to the homicidal maniac to be his caretaker; what could possibly go wrong?”

    Alternatively: A cursed Phainon can't speak, see or hear. Mydei is tasked with taking care of him until everything's sorted out.

    Summary

    With his pure white hair and silver-white garb and armour, the young man stands in stark contrast to his surroundings, the holy city’s torches casting him in an almost ethereal glow. It is an image so out of place in the darkness of Amphoreus’ evernights, for the man is so radiant, so beautiful, so seemingly untainted in innocence, and so unlike the horrors and atrocities that Mydeimos has borne witness to during the time he's spent roaming the world.

    He is certain he would be captivated by the sight, if not for the greatsword the man is holding, as well as the piercing stare from those bright—yet empty—blue eyes.

    --

    Mydei's and Phainon's first battle lasted ten nights. It sparked a connection that would last whole lifetimes.

    With the weight of his grief pressing against his ribs, with Wei Wuxian cradled in his arms, Lan Wangji turns toward the jagged cliffside.

    The world may take everything from him, but this, this it will not have.

    "If I could turn back time," he whispers against Wei Wuxian’s cold temple, kissing his cold cheek, his once warm lips and makes one promise, "I would love you forever."

    If I could turn back time, I would love you forever.

    And then—

    Lan Wangji jumps.
