Give Your Tears to the Tide by Leaves_and_Smithereens
Fandoms: 山河令 | Word of Honor (TV 2021)

Summary
This fic is the sequel to “The Price of Iridescent Wings”: There, Zishu wakes up alone and back in his rooms in Tian Chuang after he and Kexing attempted to practice the Combined Six Cultivation Method.
Not knowing what’s going on, he ventures outside and quickly realizes that this must be the past. Which, of course, is quite the shock. Zishu escapes the clutches of his cousin together with Han Ying and, wanting his zhiji back as well as wanting to learn what the hell just happened, he travels to Ghost Valley as fast as he can.
There, he tries to gain back the trust of a Valley Master who doesn’t seem to recognize him, yet is drawn to Zishu all the same.
In “Give Your Tears to the Tide”, Zishu and Kexing have to face a chaotic world that refuses to behave quite as predicted, and Zishu has to learn again that time travel has consequences.
Once more, time is not on their side as they try to counter fate and outrun death, but Zishu stays determined to save his ragtag family.
Kexing certainly won’t back down from the challenge, either: He’s hell-bent on surviving—not only for his A-Xu’s sake, but also to deal a certain Old Monster a beating that is long since overdue.Series

Summary
Penelope Featherington starts the new social season with a mission: To make Eloise Bridgerton forgive her for lying to her for literal years. This will not be helped by the fact that she has to bring back Lady Whistledown for good to secure her family's dire financial situation, but she still has to try. Eloise is her best friend after all!
Colin Bridgerton also has a mission: To make Penelope Featherington forgive him for telling the whole world she isn't marriage material. To ensure he succeeds, he comes up with a brilliant plan to get back into her good graces and get the happy-ever-after she deserves to boot. (Colin Bridgerton is an idiot.)
***
Continuation of season 2. Spoilers for season 2. TV-continuity. Season 3 speculation. Polin-centric with a hearty dash of Penloise-friendship.

Summary
When Jiang Yanli joins Jiang Cheng in visiting Wei Wuxian at the Burial Grounds, the two brothers are on the verge of cutting ties forever — until Jiang Yanli has a better idea. Wei Wuxian doesn't need to leave the sect. He needs to get married, and she has the perfect Sect Leader in mind.
When Lan Wangji is invited to come along on Wei Wuxian's visit to the Unclean Realm to spend time with his new betrothed, Nie Mingjue, he agrees — even though his heart is breaking. How else is he ever going to see Wei Wuxian again?
When Nie Mingjue welcomes Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji into his home, he realizes two things very quickly: 1.) They clearly want each other so badly they can barely stand it, and 2.) Nie Mingjue is Into That.
(In which arranged marriage to Nie Mingjue solves just about everyone's problems)
