Summary
Rain picks up as if to mock him, so strong and quick that its gale alone is enough to shrink his fireplace into a dim light. Cheng Xiaoshi stares down at it, sullen, and when water trickles even through the overarching trees, he moves to retreat to the soldiers’ tents. At least there are blankets there and the breathing of dozens of men to help fight off the cold.
But Lu Guang stands over him before he gets the chance, his boots squelching under damp earth. When Cheng Xiaoshi looks up at him, he’s blinking slowly like a feral cat. It draws a laugh from him.
“Who dragged this spoiled princess outside?”
(Lu Guang is a prince, Cheng Xiaoshi is a knight, and it's just as terrifying as one would think.)

Summary
Step 1: Risk your spot on the basketball team by failing a class.
Step 2: Flirt with your tutor to try to fix it.
Step 3: Flunk the flirting and the quiz.
Step 4: Accidentally fall for said tutor, who looks like he hasn't smiled since dinosaurs went extinct.Cheng Xiaoshi didn't plan on catching feelings. He just wanted to pass statistics so he wouldn't get benched from the basketball team. But now, he’s plotting regression equations and calculating the trajectory of Lu Guang’s perfect shoulders— and one of them is certainly his preferred variable in this equation.
Or, Star Basketball Player: Cheng Xiaoshi’s got a kink for hot nerdy tutors.

Summary
“Sometimes, I can't tell if you have anything in your head besides Mizi and music.”
Burying the twinge of guilty conscience beneath his typical bad attitude, Till sneered. “Well, how is Ivan any different? He has no room for anything else in his brain besides pissing people off and the piano he loves so much.”
Hyuna’s action of drumming her fingers on the table froze, raising her gaze to stare at him in dumbfounded silence.
“What?”
Till shifted side-to-side, uncomfortable with her reaction. Did he say something wrong?
“Why are you looking at me like that?”“You think Ivan loves... the piano?”
———
At the Anakt Performing Arts Academy, Sua and Mizi are classmates in their third year and final year, while Ivan and Till are a grade below them.
Yet, between school gossip, band gigs, a distaste for Shakespeare, a shitty father and an absent one, bouquets, KakaoTalk, sneaking out to smoke cigarettes, and a whole lot of pining, they might just end up falling in love, too.
Written for IvanTill Week 2024, one chapter for each day. (With some Mizisua. As a treat.)

“And who would I be dating? You?”
“Sure. If that gets them to leave you the fuck alone.”
Ivan just needed some help in dealing with his relentless underclassmen who wants him so bad and Till just so happens to have a light bulb moment.

Summary
“Till?” Ivan says his name and Till is pulled in, drawn in. He feels the spark in his chest flicker slowly back to life and grow with each passing second.
Till doesn’t answer, too caught in Ivan’s gaze.
He was alive. Again. He was alive again. That thought repeated like a mantra in Till’s head.
This meant he would die again too. Till had to stop it.
