    Summary

    Maybe Xie Daozhang had just found himself momentarily disillusioned with his husband, led astray by this gorgeous and enigmatic older man who had no doubt been poisoning his mind with honeyed words and sweeter promises.

    Maybe Xie Daozhang was confused, currently at a standstill where he couldn’t decide which of the two men he wanted to pick. Only he could decide for himself, but Mei Ying and the others could still remind him of what he stood to lose, should he choose the homewrecker.

    In which people mistakenly assume that Xie Lian is cheating on his husband, even though he really, really isn't!!!

    Summary

    “Why is gege sitting like that?” San Lang asked softly.

    Xie Lian blinked his eyes open. He'd been falling asleep, his body still so tired from everything it had been through in the depths of the cave.

    “Hm?” How was he sitting? Xie Lian thought about it for a moment, and then he realised. Oh.

    He was sitting with his back against the maple tree, his head tilted slightly backwards and to the side to expose his neck, the insides of his wrists turned upwards, resting on his thighs.

    Xie Lian had trained himself to sit like that in the presence of vampires, so there was less chance of them pulling on and twisting his numb arms or hurting his neck.

    or

    After an accident, banished fairy Xie Lian becomes the unwilling guest of a sect of vampires. When another powerful vampire destroys the sect and takes Xie Lian home to help him recover, Xie Lian is faced with the challenge of convincing his saviour that he really really wouldn't mind if he were to drink some of his blood.

    Summary

    “I SWEAR, YOU WON'T FIND A PERSON MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN HER! THERE'S NO ONE WHO WOULD THINK HER UGLY.”

    The Den erupts into raucous laughter, until the red curtain where Hua Cheng resides ripples. Everyone falls silent.

    “...would you like to bet on this?” a deep voice asks and no one dares to even breathe now.

    Or: Hua Cheng takes a bet because he's in a mood and gets more out of it than he expects.

    Summary

    This is the sequel to "Never Forget, Never Forgive." It's Part One of Two.
    Part One is about healing and anger and love.

     

    Xie Lian, still fresh from his seventy years in the coffin, has ascended once again.

    Having finally found some measure of peace and happiness living with his savior and new beloved, this 'god of forgiveness' now finds himself all mixed up in grudges, rumors, and heavenly politics. Though still struggling under the weight of his recent trauma, he must now reconcile strained, age-old relationships and determine just what he even wants out of this new position that was suddenly thrust upon him.

    He doesn't have to face anything alone, of course, with his ghost king by his side, but considering what has recently crawled from the bowels of Mount Tonglu to terrorize the Ghost Realm, Hua Cheng's new place in his life suddenly feels less than guaranteed...

    Summary

    "The only way out is to pass all of the tests," Nora said brightly, "If you don't, you stay here forever. I'd love the company."

    "Forever?" Chuuya winced at that. There was no way in hell he was staying here forever. Especially not with Dazai.

    "Oh, don't worry," she said, "you don't actually stay here forever." Chuuya waited for the catch.

    "Only until you starve to death. Then you die."

    Amazing.

    Summary

    “This is wrong,” Jayce rasped, his voice strained with torment, so unlike the Jayce that had left mere hours ago to dance and drink and make merry and maybe even make love to the beautiful Mel Medarda. “This is too far back, I shouldn’t be here—”

    This Jayce was like a wild animal, bearded and shaggy, furious and heartbroken.

    The huge weapon thudded to the floor once again, and Viktor finally dared to speak.

    “Jayce, is that… you?”

    Stewing in his loneliness, research assistant Viktor witnesses an Anomaly take place in the laboratory he shares with Jayce Talis, potentially altering life as they know it (or might never come to know).

    Summary

    The words got stuck in his throat. In front of him was a small woman, her hair tied inexpertly in two buns. She was dressed in simple clothes and looked a bit thin and tired, but her face was full of delight. Although it had been 800 years, she was exactly as he remembered her.

    “Mother?”

    Rumor has it that a figure in Yokohama’s underground scene is holding a contest. The top-voted street racer wins a free enrollment into the next Formula 3 season, all the way in California.

    The entire city’s confident that the best driver that the circuit’s known in decades, Dazai Osamu—street name: McQueen, will win the opportunity.

    Summary

    After a suicide attempt, Dazai is cast away to work at the lighthouse his great uncle had owned in the north of the mythical Shimane prefecture. He's not even in the town, he's three nautical miles away from the nearest port, always overlooking a populace that he supposes he can never be a part of.

    Dazai finds that this esoteric ward he does not acknowledge offers more surprises than creeping loneliness. When the body of a man washes up on his beach, it seems that fortune has offered him a hand in repairing a piece of himself he has come to tolerate through the eyes of someone who has no idea what it means to be a human.

    “No, don’t do that now,” Dazai warns him, looking coldly at the redhead.

    “Do what?”

    Dazai sighs.

    “Open your heart. Feel sympathy for others. It won’t do you any good if you want to win the Games.”

    “Then why are you opening your heart and helping me?” Chuuya responds, sharply.

    It’s silent as Dazai turns away to look out the window, his eyes fighting a flicker of some kind of emotion that Chuuya doesn’t recognize.

    “Because at least one of us should win and it’s not going to be me."

    ——

    For the 89th Hunger Games, twenty-two year olds Osamu Dazai and Chuuya Nakahara find themselves as the Tributes of District 10.

    Summary

    "In the distance, something caught his eye. There was an unassuming little peach tree on the side of a hill. He could feel something about it was unusual, a slight glow to it against the gloomy sky. As he drew closer he realized the tree was growing out of the massive hollow stump of an old dead one. Though it appeared ordinary, there was an energy to it- a very faint spark of the divine that drew Hua Cheng like a moth to a flame.

    He knew, whether intentional or not, this was a grave marker."
