    Summary

    Heizou never asked to be an omega. If he'd been given a choice, he'd have chosen to be a beta—to live an unassuming life, free from the burdens of heats, ruts, and pheromones. Instead, ever since the time he first presented as an omega, he's had to put up with more than his fair share of those same burdens along with memories he wishes he could erase.

    The things he can control, however—his career, his relationships, his day-to-day routine, and most importantly, his autonomy—he clings to fiercely. Despite the challenges that his designation throws his way, Heizou remains determined to live life on his own terms, and not even this imaginary thing called 'fate' can take that away from him.

    Scent blockers, suppressants, and a choker were all that was needed to solve most of his problems, that is, until a strange alpha crosses paths with him. When a man by the name of Kaedehara Kazuha shows up at The Morning Brew, Heizou finds his meticulously structured life beginning to unravel, and every fiber of 'control' being thrown out the window.

    Summary

    “I apologize for my tardiness,” a voice huffs, catching his breath between words, the slight rasp to it making it sound as if the speaker had sprinted to make it in time, “Something came up last minute, and there was no way for me to conta— oh.”

    Oh, in-fucking-deed.

    For a split second Aventurine thinks he is genuinely hallucinating, because there is absolutely no way in the entire cosmos that he’s looking up at Sunday family-head-turned-Aeon-turned-space-fugitive Oak. Talk about nothing surprising him anymore.

    Summary

    -
    "Should I refer to you as Rex Lapis then?"
    The god beside him laughed. "Let's get one misunderstanding out of the way."
    He unintentionally stiffened as the god's glowing eyes turned to look at him directly.
    "I... am Morax. Meanwhile YOU..." The eyes gleamed with something between mischievous and proud. "...are Zhongli. Only together are WE 'Rex Lapis'."

    In a world where every generation the God of Contracts grants a human of his choice the right to rule over Liyue as an emperor, a certain funeral consultant did not expect himself to be a part of the line of succession.

    Summary

    In which Ajax falls into the Abyss for three years instead of months. It spits him back out differently, with a taint in his heart and more battle experience than any mortal since the archon war. That’s the thing about the Abyss; it takes something from you when you enter.

    And when you leave?

    It gives something back.

    Or:

    Everything you need to know about entering, living in and escaping the Abyss. Also includes how to make yourself a wanted criminal in your home country, how to take care of your family while running from said country, how to snag yourself a foreign archon for a husband, and more.

    Note: Do not attempt at home.

    Summary

    “What’s ‘rakshak’?” he asks.

    Mama’s lips press together, but Papa smiles. “It’s fine, Faranak. The Akasha has a fully public entry on both…conditions. He may as well learn about it now.” Papa takes the clip from Mama, turning it over in his fingers, then looks at Kaveh. “Most countries call rakshak ‘Sentinels.’ You might say they’re the opposite of Guides.”

    “Bad?” Kaveh asks warily.

    Both his parents laugh. “No, no, sweetheart. I would say they’re more counterparts than opposites—here, let me bring it up,” adds Mama.

     

    ---

     

    Kaveh is a Guide, like his father. Alhaitham, a Sentinel not quite like anyone else. Born into a Land of Wisdom that cares little for those gifts, they must explore old hurts, find their way with or without each other...and have the courage to face their own reflection.
