    Summary

    After eighteen years in prison, Ichiban is welcomed back to the Seiryu Clan with a promotion he isn’t sure he’s ready for. Meanwhile, Zhao has been running the Liumang for a decade and finds himself more worn down by the responsibility every day.

    When they both ditch their duties for an afternoon off at the Seagull Cinema they couldn’t have possibly expected to hit it off with a random stranger. With false pretenses on both sides, neither can predict how dangerous their attraction will wind up. Every time they meet will pull them closer to the center of a turf war that neither one wants.

    Do you wish that Ichi and Zhao had some longer lasting enemies to lovers spice? Good! Whoops this wound up not very ETL at all!

    This is my AU-lite setup for their brief mistaken identity affair turned emergency partnership from opposite ends of the Ijin Three

    Summary

    Henry moves to New York City to help Pez with the opening of his new bar in the East Village. The location—fortunately for business, but unfortunately for Henry’s sanity—is directly across the street from a fire station. The sound of sirens is bad, Alex the gorgeous firefighter is worse. But when Alex helps Henry avoid a near catastrophe the night of the bar’s opening, the two form a tentative friendship that starts to develop into something more.

    Summary

    “Hey, man. Can I get a black coffee to go?”

    “Er…” he says – a faintly bewildered expression on his face. “Yes, I imagine so.”

    Turns out the guy is also British, which is like, whatever. Alex gives him one of his best smiles. “Great, thanks.”

    Hot Barista glances vaguely around himself, then back to Alex. He looks simultaneously surprised and uncertain, like some kind of aggressively handsome time-traveller who’s been unexpectedly yeeted into a different century. After a beat, he says – “From me?”

    “Uh yeah. You’re working here, right?”

    “Well... yes?”

    Alex tries very hard not to sigh.

    Great. Looks like he’s dealing with one of those people who are so attractive, they’ve never had the need to develop any kind of personality beyond that of a Tupperware container of room-temperature potato salad.
    Alex absolutely does not have time for whatever this shit is.

    ***

    Five times Henry serves Alex coffee and one time Alex serves Henry.

    Strap in, folks. It's a coffee shop AU ...Kind of.

    Summary

    "Okay, kids, settle down, we're all friends here," Nora cuts in. "And we haven't discussed where the night is going yet. I'm of the personal opinion that we should offer our British guests the quintessential American coming-of-age experience." Alex's eyes widen in what can only be sheer delight.

    "What, like beer pong?" June says, nose wrinkling.

    "No," Alex interjects. "Truth or dare."

    "You read my mind, Alexander." Nora turns to open the mini-fridge. "What would everyone like to drink?"

    "Henry and I will take vodka if you've got it," Pez says. Henry narrows his eyes at Pez, trying to communicate his alarm, but Pez simply grins back, feral, licking his top teeth.
