    Summary

    Jiyan used to believe morally segmenting a man like the General would untangle the labyrinthine web of emotions that he left him in, tell him when to be a moth drawn to flame, when to recoil away with horror.

    He thought it had worked, until lines began to blur. For everything.

     

    And Geshu Lin makes a different choice in the Battle Beneath the Crescent.

    Summary

    In autumn, a poetry-writing contest is planned at Tenshukaku of the imperial palace in Inazuma. When paired with the lovely and vibrant poet, Akahito, Kuronushi is in grave danger of losing to him in the poetry contest. Since he believes he will be unable to defeat Akahito in poetry-writing, he copies his poem into a volume of Man’yō-shū. Amid these acts of treachery, romance and competition, the two poets disguise their feelings for each other, but will Akahito’s poetry finally break the ice encasing Kuronushi’s heart?

    Summary

    It was only at that moment that Jiyan's brain kicked into high gear and he finally noticed an important detail. It was the fact that Calcharo's other hand wasn't holding him down at all. His armour-clad fingers were tapping feverishly on the bare skin of Jiyan's back, right next to his Resonator Mark. Jiyan froze, counting, wondering if it was what he thought it was. Yes. It was. Three short, three long, three short.

    F**k.

    Now it was very important to stay calm.

    Even Calcharo knows that sometimes situations come up where you have to do things you've spent your whole life thinking were impossible. Like asking for help.

    Summary

    Slow-burn romance with lots of Angst following Jiyan on his lonely way as the General of the Midnight Rangers. But a certain shadow of the past haunts him relentlessly...
    One day, a new recruit appears - but why does this stranger feel so painfully familiar?

    “Jiyan, you can’t save me from fate.“
    The sentence echoed in the silence as Jiyan’s hand stilled for a moment. He struggled to retain his composure while looking at the now neatly sutured injury. Tomorrow Geshu Lin would hide the bandages under his shirt, grinning ever so nonchalantly, barking orders relentlessly while jumping headfirst into battle as always. And Jiyan wouldn't have a chance to do anything about it… as always.
    “Then stop challenging fate all the time. Just look at you ... you're dancing with death every single day.”, he whispered tonelessly unable to look him in the eyes as he knew that his heart would break if he saw Geshu Lin’s expression right now. His calm expression of acceptance.
    “Such is my duty as a general. I need you to understand this, Jiyan.”
