Summary
If he had to guess who sent the book, Jinshi would place his money on Meimei.
Oh he knows that Pairin or Joka (or even the Madame of the Verdegris House) could have done it, they could have slipped this book into his bag when he was last there, but he suspects that only Meimei would have thought to.
After all, like Lakan, Meimei is a true strategist.
______________Jinshi discovers a new book in his bag and realises that at least one of The Three Princesses of Verdegris House knows precisely what sort of wedding night he would like with his Apothecary…

Summary
For half a second, Edwin’s vision was filled with a beautiful, ethereal sight. Charles had turned his face up in surprise, eyes wide and lips parted, and his brown eyes reflected the cloud of golden shimmers hovering above him. He was bathed in a gentle light, surrounded by a galaxy of tiny stars.
Then the dust began to settle onto his skin, and Charles’ face contorted. He clapped his hands over his eyes, pressing hard, and drew in a harsh gasp through gritted teeth.
“Charles?” Edwin shouted.
Charles screamed.

Summary
Written to a (long ago, now) kinkmeme prompt: Charles touches a cursed object that allows him to hear Edwin's thoughts. At first he was going to tell Edwin immediately, but then he hears the loving things Edwin thinks about him, and he just wants to listen for a few days because he's never heard someone "say" things like that about him.
Snippet:
He heard Edwin’s rich and affectionate chuckle, not out loud but in his mind, and realized all at once how aggressively he was fidgeting, the couch beneath him rattling. He jerked to a stop, making an embarrassed face and wondering if he should apologize for being so distracting when Edwin was trying to work.But, there goes the hummingbird, thought Edwin, a quick and simple phrase wrapped in a hundred soft layers of affection. Charles sat still, feeling his partner’s fond thoughts more than hearing them.
But it was more than just fondness, or even love–it was comfort Edwin was exuding. A gentle, abiding, and complete familiarity, the kind that brings safety and healing. It was hearth, bread, and blanket.

Summary
Like what happened in Port Townsend wasn't enough, now Charles gets to have even more shite from his past dredged up for Edwin to have to deal with. Because who wouldn't want to walk on eggshells around their best mate and business partner, just in case he loses his head and turns into a fucking child.
