    Summary

    For five hundred years, the ghost king Hua Cheng has searched for the man he loves - and has found nothing

    But when an unexpected tip tells him of a mysterious masked man in Yong'an, Hua Cheng finds that Xie Lian is indeed there - stabbed in the heart and entombed for twenty-six years, hovering between life and death. Even an immortal has his limits, and Hua Cheng dedicates himself to nursing his beloved back to health.

    But the return of Xie Lian into Hua Cheng's life isn't as joyous as he had hoped. Xie Lian begins to suspect that there's more to this mysterious, charming man than he lets on, and Hua Cheng fears that the truth about him will drive away the only person he's ever loved.

    Summary

    “Could I get a name for the order?” Marlene asked.

    “Serious,” the man replied. “Like the star,” he clarified, and Remus mentally scratched out 'Serious' and rewrote 'Sirius' in his head.

    “The… star?” Marlene asked, her pen hovering over the cup as she hesitated.

    “S-I-R-I-U-S,” Remus said. He stocked croissants into the display case, not looking up. “The Dog Star,” he added, “brightest star in the sky, actually. Visible from both hemispheres.” When he looked over, the man– Sirius– seemed surprised, his eyebrows raised as Remus spoke, and when Remus finished, he blinked a few times before smiling lopsidedly.

    “Er– yeah,” he breathed a laugh. “That.” There was a baby on his hip. Somehow, it had taken Remus a second glance to notice that.

    ---

    Or, Remus works as a barista and Sirius comes in every morning with the world's cutest baby, and man, these two just wrote the book on mutual pining, huh?

    Summary

    Xie Lian found something in himself that he thought was gone—worn away with every mistake he had made.

    Faith.

    His arms opened, and the child was hesitant—but eventually, he fell into them, his body trembling with silent sobs.

    "I remember you," he whispered again, voice breaking as Hong-er clung to him.

    I remember you.

    I remember you.

    I will always, for as long as I live, remember you.

    (A re-telling of TGCF where Xie Lian has his cursed shackle placed in his eyes, blinding him. And yet, through all of his struggles; there is always someone watching over him.)

    Summary

    Denki knows full well that there’s never really been a question needed as to whether the mer exist. They ‘exist’ to humanity these days in the same way the true fae and titans do: in fossils and relics, and stories from an age when magic held the world carefully in its palms and instilled new wonders with every gentle whisper.

    It’s not like magic is gone— far from it. But the creatures that breathed magic, bled it, held together by miracles and timelessness and enigma… well, they’re another story.

    Which is why he’s having a hard time comprehending the visual feed from his sea rover.

    (Or: Kaminari Denki saves a siren and ends up in over his head.)
