    Summary

    “My mother,” he begins, and Wei Ying stops in his tearing up of the grass, and tilts his head to listen. This is one of the things about him that makes Lan Zhan’s heart weak with affection: for someone so loud and constant, his ability to go quiet and listen is unmatched. Wei Ying will be careful with the memories Lan Zhan gives him, he thinks. “My mother used to do it for me. When I was small. I sat on her lap and she braided my hair and we watched the trees sway outside the window.”

    ;

    Lan Zhan loves and loses and loves again.

    Summary

    Cloud Recesses are built on a place rich with spiritual power, which makes cultivation easier. Gusu Lan is an eco-conscious sect, though, so to replenish what they take, every Lan disciple, upon turning 16, must enter a sacred cave with a partner of his choosing, follow the ritual, achieve sexual release and direct the liberated energy to restore the environment.

    When it's his turn, Lan Xichen's ritual goes without a hitch. Lan Wangji's doesn't.

    Summary

    Steel was the only thing that had a discernible effect on the rose thicket. Dark energy splashed uselessly against it, absorbed without a trace. Cold that would slow molecules ghosted across the fresh green leaves as a harmless frost, melting away easily in the afternoon sun. Fire… Shen Wei had not dared to try fire.

     

    A rose thicket encages the SID, Zhao Yunlan is trapped in unnatural sleep, and Shen Wei is forced to rely on Zhao Xinci’s assistance.

    Summary

    “I won’t laugh.” Bucky straightens out both his back and his expression and scoots closer, knee colliding with Sam’s own. He keeps it there; it feels hot and solid, even through the kevlar. “C’mon, I promise. Just tell me.”

    Sam turns it over in his head for a long moment. Swallows hard. Rubs his palms across his thighs.

    “Okay,” he says, looking away. “Do you believe in ghosts, man?”

    Bucky laughs, the asshole.

    Sam has been haunted all his life. This is the first time he's ever thought of telling anyone about it.

    Summary

    “First, you get the money. Then you get the power, respect - hos come last.”

     

    Wen Qing traps Wei Wuxian in the Demon Slaughtering Cave, but Wei Wuxian isn’t interested in being the beneficiary of the Wen Remnants’ noble sacrifice. His efforts to free himself accidentally send him back to the beginning of the Sunshot Campaign. Coreless but armed with demonic cultivation, knowledge of the future and his wits, Wei Wuxian takes advantage of this opportunity to come out on top of both the war and its aftermath—before either has a chance to happen—by marrying and swiftly burying the cultivation world’s worst men.

    Lan Wangji is confused, hurt, and uncomfortably aroused by Wei Wuxian’s improbably elaborate series of Sect-themed bridal negligees.

    Summary

     

    Wei Wuxian fell... and landed on a sidewalk 600 years in the future. Right in front of Lan Zhan and Lan Xichen, modern cultivators on their way home from a cultivation conference.

    A surprising amount of historical information has been lost to time - some due to natural destruction, some due to rampant revisionism. In particular, the true identity of the Yiling Laozu has been erased from history, with no sect willing to claim him and everyone eager to hide any ties they once had to him.

    As Wei Ying helps the Lans fill in the missing pieces of history, Lan Zhan knows there are things he’s not telling them. He also knows that it doesn’t matter what those secrets are; nothing will keep him from standing at Wei Ying’s side.

    Eventually, Wei Wuxian has to face the fact that he can’t correct some of history’s most important oversights without coming clean about his identity. Proving to the world that he is who he says he is takes them to Lanling, where they unearth history even he didn’t know about.

    Summary

    Zhou Zishu’s pulse speeds up as he meets Wen Kexing’s gaze. “What are you asking for, lao-Wen?”

    “Your scars.” Wen Kexing draws his hand to the collar of Zhou Zishu’s robes. His fingers linger there, steady and controlled, showing no sign of how quickly they could rip both fabric and flesh to shreds. “You bear far more than the ones you inflicted upon yourself, A-Xu. I want to see them.”

    The morning after the night before: Wen Kexing has a load off his mind; Zhou Zishu has a lot still on his.

    He also has Wen Kexing's cock in his mouth, but that isn't quite getting him out of his own head the way he'd like.

    It was a gradual fading now. Taste, smell, touch, hearing, sight, speech - they were all going to leave him, bit by bit.

     

    Zhou Zishu is losing his senses. Wen Kexing has opinions about that.

    Summary

    You were… aware of Ye Baiyi, before. You just didn’t care. He was a piece on the playing board, but he seemed so disinterested, so detached, and you had concerns of your own to worry over.

    It wasn’t until he toasted you at Yifu's banquet that you became more conscious of him. His attention—his attention pulling the attention of the room to you—caught you perfectly off-balance and distracted, left you uncertain of how to respond. It should have been everything you ever wanted, not only Yifu's acknowledgment, but the acknowledgment of others that you were Yifu's as well, and—

    It should have been a moment of purest satisfaction, and instead, it left you more disoriented than you had been before, terribly conscious of Ye Baiyi’s eyes still on you.

    "Tomorrow we can do whatever we like, so let's go exploring. I'll find out all the best places to go in Yueyang and take you there."

    "And I suppose I'll be paying," Zhou Zishu says.

    "Some things in life are free," Wen Kexing says, and taps his closed fan against his chin.

    Five kisses that weren't quite perfect, and one that was.

    Summary

    "I asked you a question, little spy." The Valley Master was right in front of him. He filled Han Ying's vision—maybe not literally, but with such presence that Han Ying couldn't concentrate on anything else.

    There was no good answer to that question, of course, and it was clear they both knew it. Han Ying's purpose here was obvious. Once a spy has been found, they've already failed. The only question was whether Zhou Zishu had told the Valley Master who he was and who he worked for. His eyes flicked over the Valley Master's shoulder to find Zhou Zishu again. He was still just sitting there, still and cold and watching.

    "Xiao-daren." Suddenly the Ghost Valley Master's hand was at Han Ying's throat. The pressure just enough to be a warning. Han Ying could feel the shape of his fingers. They were long and thin. "Watch where you look. I'm the one asking questions."
