    Summary

    Ever since she’d been small, Hermione’s reward for good marks had been a rampage through a bookshop, so the day she tore open her O.W.L.s results and triumphantly brandished the eleven Outstandings, her beaming mother said, “We’ll go to Foyles tomorrow,” without any discussion required.

    Summary

    “If only one could root one’s self in here among the grass and stones and do something worth doing” —Gaudy Night, Dorothy L. Sayers

     

    "So, what sort of inquiry takes four people to conduct?" Wen Qing asked, when they were seated.

     

    To her surprise, the others looked to Jiang Cheng, who met her gaze for the first time. He looked sharper than she remembered, as if grief and his change in station had honed his edges.

     

    "The others are here as witnesses. I'm here with a proposal." He took a deep breath and carefully clasped his hands on the table between them.

     

    In the aftermath of the Sunshot Campaign, Jiang Cheng offers the Wens another choice.

    Summary

    “Hello,” She had a clear, melodious voice and a pleasant if not particularly striking face. “Mianmian says you want to talk to me.”

    After a few seconds of embarrassed silence, Bicao said, “We want to talk to the Blue Lotus.”

    The young woman continued to smile expectantly at them.

    “You…” Bicao trailed off, her eyes round. There was a snort from behind them. The young man in blue narrowed his eyes and stood up, crossing his arms. Even the kitten in the young woman’s arms arched its back and hissed at them.

    “Shhh, Xiao Bao,” The young woman soothed the kitten and turned a sweet smile on them, “What can Jiang Yanli do for you, Madam Qin?”

    ...

    Summary

    Three years after the Sunshot Campaign (and two years after Wei Ying shut himself and the Wen remnants into the Burial Mounds), something rips open in the bottom of the sea and unimaginable horrors crawl out. The cultivation world unites once more in the face of a common enemy.

    Lan Wangji knows from the start that without Wei Ying, there is no hope of survival.

    (Wei Wuxian is pretty happy farming radishes at the Burial Mounds and does not enjoy sea monsters disturbing his peace.)

    (50 kisses prompt #40, because the world is ending)
