Summary
Xie Lian gets a glimpse of its eye: a hot coal set deep into unearthly, marble-like skin, onyx pupil blown so wide with bloodlust it threatens to swallow the red iris entirely. A mouth full of entirely too many teeth, extended incisors bared like daggers. Rust smeared down the pale line of its throat.
A vampire. A feral vampire.
Looking at him like a feast set out before a starving man.
While wandering the mortal realm, Xie Lian stumbles upon a hungry vampire who, curiously, seems reluctant to drink from him.

Summary
After getting lost in Ghost City, Xie Lian bargains away years of servitude to the Gambler’s Den to help a man in need. He dons the robes of a worker and hides his face and life behind an enchanted mask, protecting himself from the city's denizens. Xie Lian finds an unexpected home in Ghost City before he ever sees the lord of it, the infamous Hua Cheng. When he finally does, something about himself seems to catch the attention of the Ghost King, slowly striking up an unusual friendship. Xie Lian must figure out how to navigate his burgeoning feelings, how to keep his identity to himself, and how to get over a ghost so clearly in love with someone else.

Summary
Being friends with the Mighty Nein is infuriating. They're loud and vulgar, and Essek has long since picked up the defense mechanism of smiling and laughing along to jokes he doesn't understand while he googles nasty words on urban dictionary under the table. It frustrates him though. Essek has never liked not knowing things, anything. When he confides that fact in Caleb his friend is all to quick to jump at the chance to offer Essek some...hands on lessons for anything he might not understand.

Summary
“In the Dynasty, There are many, ah... stages. Things are drawn out and it’s generally a terribly public affair. It is why I am not very well practiced in being, what is the word in common— Being the primary— the one to initiate and court the secondary. I am, unfortunately, very well aware of all its stages, however.” An eye roll piques Caleb’s attention.
"Herr Thelyss, were you well sought after in the Dynasty, then?”
or, a continuation of "and i know i've kissed you before"— during a vacation to Nicodranas with the Mighty Nein, Essek and Caleb play out Dynasty Courting rituals at the expense of everyone else. So, nothing out of the normal for them, just more scandalous hand touching
