    Summary

    “You don’t mind, do you?” Shane asked, before he could stop himself.
    Ilya looked at him like he’d said something stupid. Shane cringed. “No, it is good for me,” Ilya said, his lip curling up. “Healthy competition.”

    After Sochi, Shane starts sleeping with another man. After Vegas, he picks back up with Ilya, too.

    Summary

    Lan Wangji never believed the stories of the Lan family curse.
     
    He kept his face impassive when, as a young boy, Lan Qiren told him, "The rumors are true. If a Lan reaches thirty years of age with his virginity intact, he will be able to hear the thoughts of whomever he touches."

     

    A Cherry Magic AU where Lan Wangji is cursed in the years following Wei Wuxian's death, and what happens when he returns.

    Summary

    Wei Ying said, “You know, in some ways I’m kind of depressed. I took your biggest dick on my first try. Now I don’t have anything to build up to.”

    “There are bigger ones available,” Lan Zhan said lazily. “I can pay for express shipping.”

    (Lan Zhan works the late shift.)

    Summary

    “We hear that His Excellency might be married by summer’s end,” the merchant’s wife says and Wei Wuxian freezes, his heart in his throat. “The Gusu Lan sect has been buying enough red silk and brocade that the merchants in Caiyi can’t satisfy the demand.”

    He feels himself grow brittle inside, like a flick of a finger to his temple might make him shatter. His ears are ringing.

    “Who’s the lucky bride?” he asks despite himself. His tongue sticks to the roof of his mouth.

    Or: The story of a marriage.

    Summary

    It’s a really unfortunate thing, developing a crush on your husband. Wei Ying had assumed this would be easy. Lan Zhan had been so icy and unpleasant to him, it had never occurred to him that he might end up spending the next however many years with this dumb, burning feeling in his chest whenever he looks at him.

    “Okay,” says Wei Ying. “But tell me if I…if the pretending gets to be too hard, okay?”

    “It will not,” says Lan Zhan, quietly certain.

    Summary

    Jingyan did not expect to ever see his one-night stand from three years ago again.

    Mei Changsu did not anticipate that his one-night stand would stubbornly refuse to give up having feelings for him.

    Things go very much not according to plan, to Mei Changsu's dismay and everyone else's glee.

    Summary

    Lan Wangji always says the same thing when they’re preparing to leave Gusu: “If you want to stop anywhere, tell me.”

    “Hm?” Wei Wuxian always says, still surprised by the suggestion. He is, after all, only a marginally more acceptable dinner guest than he used to be. “Where would we stop?”

    Yet every time they travel, the number of unexpected detours only increases.

    (Or: seven nights on the road.)

    Summary

    It is the Red Wolf Moon and winter’s first snow has fallen thickly over the Tailtean Plains. Dimitri has just escaped from his execution in Fhirdiad. He has lost the crown, his eye, and his pride; all he has to his name are the clothes he is wearing, the armor and lance that Dedue had managed to pass onto him, the paltry supplies he took off of the soldiers he had killed while making his getaway, his ghosts and his memories. He does not know where to go nor what he should do – he isn’t sure there is either a place or a purpose for him anymore.

    As Dimitri stares over the white expanse in front of him, Felix’s voice surfaces in his mind. The last time that they had spoken was the day before the invasion of Garreg Mach; they had crossed paths by chance late into the evening and Felix steadfastly refused to meet Dimitri’s gaze.

    “I don’t even want to see your face right now,” Felix had said, scowling deeply. Even so consumed by revenge, still Dimitri thought Felix looked lovely, touched and yet ever unchanged by evil. “Get lost.”

    So that’s exactly what Dimitri does: he gets lost.

    Summary

    They are not rogue cultivators. Wei Wuxian is pretty clear about that. A few weeks after Lan Zhan joined him on the road, Wei Wuxian is still getting used to the new, unnamed normal when they get caught in a rainstorm and have to make an unplanned overnight stop.

    Summary

    "You worry me," Lan WangJi tells him seriously. He puts his hands on Wei WuXian's knees for lack of a better place to put them. Wei WuXian places his own hands on top of Lan WangJi's, presumably to stop him from trying again to check his bandages.

     

    "You don't need to worry," Wei WuXian says. "I swear I'm fine. I'll tell you if something feels off. You know me, I'm a huge crybaby whiner."

     

    Lan WangJi frowns at him again. It's true that Wei WuXian can be a bit of a crybaby, but only about injuries that don't actually matter. When it's something important, like a ghost curse or a fundamentally unstable necromantic practice, Wei WuXian keeps it to himself. "Ridiculous," Lan WangJi tells him. Wei WuXian grins down at him.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian chuckles and starts pushing Lan Wangji's outer robes off his shoulders. "Poor Lan Zhan, subject to such earthly miseries. You must be exhausted, come to bed, come to bed."

    "Mm," Lan Wangji says. He raises his arms so that Wei Wuxian can keep undressing him. His clothes will end up on the floor, but no matter. Wei Wuxian's deft hands at his belts are worth wrinkled robes.

    "... Goodness, Hanguang-Jun, you wear too many damned layers," Wei Wuxian tells him after a while. "Would it kill you to stop after a reasonable five?"

    --

    Wei Wuxian moves into the Jingshi. They sleep together.

    Summary

    “C’mon, Fe. Please?” He shivers exaggeratedly and rubs his arms. “Two bedrolls are better than one…”

    “Ugh. Fine.” More eagerly than he wants to admit even to himself, Felix tugs open his bedroll. Even spread out flat on the ground, it’s still hardly wider than a cot and a half, but Sylvain wriggles in next to him gamely, tugging his own bedroll over both of them. Sylvain snakes an arm around Felix’s waist and Felix goes stiff.

    “What are you—”

    He chokes on his words before they even leave his mouth. In all the commotion he hadn’t noticed Rue standing up from her place at his feet, apparently driven up by Tineminae’s hounding. As soon as Sylvain gets an arm around Felix, Rue pounces, pinning Tineminae to the ground with one paw and holding her jaws near the otter’s throat as she growls, low and subsonic. Sylvain goes very still.

    Summary

    An ill-fated parent teacher conference reunites Jin Ling's wayward uncle with Sizhui's father. AKA: A matchmaking disaster as told by Jin Ling, Sizhui, and Jingyi.

     

    Jin Ling knows he’s in deep trouble even before reporting to Headmaster Lan’s office, but the words “your uncle will be here soon” still strike the fear of God in him. His only consolation is that Jingyi and Sizhui’s guardians are also in the office, Jingyi’s mom already lecturing her sheepish-looking son. Lan-ayi only stops when Sizhui’s father, a quiet and tall man in white, clears his throat, causing her to engage him in one-sided smalltalk.

     

    This is a disaster. Jin Ling had spent such a nice break at home for Mid-Autumn Festival, and Fairy’s presence had soothed his homesickness after returning to boarding school in Gusu. He knows pets aren’t allowed, but who is going to report Jin Ling when his father pays good money for a private suite in the dorms? Then there was the incident with Jingyi, a box of mooncakes, and a door left ajar. Long story short, he spent an hour chasing Fairy down the halls with Sizhui and Jingyi before finding his dog nosing up to a very angry Headmaster Lan.
