    Summary

    I am Talon, I know I will never be anything else, but at least I can choose not to be his Talon. I can choose to be more than the living weapon that Owlman made me. — Earth-3 universe, eventual unintended Dick Grayson/Jason Todd with background Roy/Cheshire. Total mess of different continuities, I regret nothing!

    Summary

    Dick is taken by the Court after his parents' death to be trained as a Talon. He becomes loyal, deadly, and the Court's primary Talon. At least until he meets a boy from the Court's secondary, darker kind of servant who gets assigned to be his partner, and makes him start to care about things other than serving the Court. Tim, a boy-genius member of the Court, could have told anyone who listened that pairing Talon with the other boy - Jason - was a poor decision, and the fact that the Grandmaster of the Court doesn't listen, at all, is something he's finding less and less tolerable.

    Summary

    Sometimes, Shen Yuan dreams of home. He is Shen Yuan in these dreams, not the peerless immortal, but rather the sickly boy. Occasionally, his family visits. His sister’s face is indistinct. He tries to focus on it, but cannot. She sounds upset, but her words are unclear-- her voice only a half-remembered hum.

    When he dreams of them, he feels guilty. When he doesn’t, he almost feels worse

    In which Shen Qingqiu becomes depressed, Luo Binghe and Liu Qingge team up to 'fix' it, and the universe itself decides to get in on the fun. You're the love interest, you aren't allowed to be miserable!

    Summary

    “What’s next?” Wen Kexing finds that he doesn't want to know, but he asks anyway.

    “Scent, touch, hearing, and then sight.”

    He pulls Zhou Zishu’s face down to his neck. “What’s this smell?”

    “Um, the green bottle with the cork—no, the agate stopper—on the stool next to the bathtub.”

    Wen Kexing lets him go, reassured at least by that. He thinks for a while, and needles out, “So all this time, I’ve been cooking for someone who can’t even taste the hard work I put in.”

    -

    cooking for a dying person in the shadow of his old home, until his self-destruct button can be safely turned off.

    Summary

    Chu Wanning picks one up. “So, do we… eat them like this?”

    Taxian-jun looks at him strangely. “No, these aren’t edible. She said to plant them.”

    He feels a little offended when Chu Wanning drops the seed in surprise. “You’re going to garden?”

    “What’s with that reaction?” Taxian-jun says, folding his arms defensively. “Can’t this venerable one take up a hobby?”

    Taxian-jun takes up gardening and learns to adjust to the simple life with Chu Wanning. Contains spoilers for up to the end of the novel and the extras.

    Summary

    There is a scar on Chu Wanning’s chest. Taxian-jun knows this: he used to mouth along that line that marked Chu Wanning’s heart, though he had been convinced then that all that lay beneath it was a hollow cavern.

    Summary

    It starts like every other fight. Liu Qingge lands one hit to Luo Binghe's every three, both of them bruising and collecting injuries like art. It drags on until the sunlight starts to fade, until they're both breathing heavily and covered in a fine sheet of sweat.

    And then Luo Binghe makes a mistake.

    It's small - just a minor misstep, an unfortunate shift of balance. Against any other opponent, it wouldn't mean a thing. Wouldn't make a difference. But Liu Qingge has been watching. Liu Qingge has been waiting for Luo Binghe to make a mistake for years. He quickly changes his attack mid-step, throwing his weight against the opening Luo Binghe's mistake left, and Luo Binghe falls. Liu Qingge falls with him, of course -he compromised too much of his balance with that attack - but he makes sure to end up on top, straddling Luo Binghe and pressing the flat of Cheng Luan's blade to his neck.

    Without meaning to, without thinking to stop it, Liu Qingge smiles at him, bright and genuine and triumphant.

    Luo Binghe's breath catches.

    "I win."

    ---

    ~Or~ The one where Liu Qingge actually wins a fight and Luo Binghe ends up getting a little hot for Shishu.

    Summary

    The thing about having given your heart, your service, and most of your soul to your country, Soujiro thought, mouthing at an unlit cigarette as he sat uselessly by Akira's bedside for the second night in a row, watching that the kid kept breathing through his concussion... The thing was, you either broke, or you learned to appreciate the simpler things in life. Fine coffee. Fresh curry. Regular customers.

    Old friends.

    Summary

    The pharaoh wasn't the only one who always knew his days were numbered.

    Or, what if Kaiba was already dying? What if the end of DSoD was just him taking control of the time and place?

    Summary

    After six days without sleep, Seto Kaiba believes it is reasonable to want to put the matter of perfecting Hologram Atem's hair to rest.

    So he's going to break in through Yugi's window.
