Summary
Hua Cheng is accustomed to being merciless in these interviews, and a pretty smile won't change that.
"Fangxin sounds like a fake name," Hua Cheng states.
"Just a moniker, Your Highness," Fangxin replies. "If you wish, please call this servant A-Lian."
-
Prince Hua Cheng of the troubled kingdom of Qiandeng has avoided the burden of a personal guard for years. Despite his father's insistence, Hua Cheng has been able to turn would-be guards away by right of dueling them before they can secure the position.
The latest to try is an unassuming cultivator.

Summary
Hua Cheng, the god of luck and gambling, lost his memory many centuries ago, remembering only the past eight hundred years, although the first few centuries after his ascension were also hazy.
One day, he descended to the mortal realm, ultimately deciding to take some time to be alone, climbing a mountain nearby. He stumbled across a small, isolated shrine, tended to by a young shrine master.
Xie Lian, a calamity feared by the three realms, finds himself in a situation he never imagined he'd be in— smiling at the man whose death pushed him over the edge.

Extra 1 for ’Til our compass stands still
A pair of familiar faces come searching for Xie Lian in the Gambler’s Den, bringing with them some unexpected news and receiving more than they anticipated in turn.
Probably intelligible without reading the original fic, but it sure will make a lot more sense with it.

Summary
The light still doesn't make sense against his eyes, but he thinks he remembers something like color. There is a lot of color around him, and he is able to discern white and black and a great deal of something else. It's a breathtaking splash of vivacity on a new canvas, where there had been no canvas at all for so many eternities. It is the most beautiful thing he has ever seen.
Red, Xie Lian finally names it.
-
In a disorienting turn of luck, Xie Lian is rescued from State Preceptor Fangxin's coffin. He recovers his other senses in good time, but his sight is taking longer to return—decades with no exposure to light have weakened his capacity for it.
His benefactor and worshiper, a wealthy and eccentric ghost named Hua Cheng, hasn't left his side for months.

Summary
“San Lang…are you sure about this? Life on the road, storage units…it’s not glamorous. There’s junk and there’s gross fluids and roaches and raccoons and meth labs, and one time I got lead poisoning and- oh! Another time I accidentally got locked inside a unit with five families and loaded on a truck and then I think technically we were human trafficked-?”
“Gege. I’m in this, all the way.”
Scrap Collector’s cancellation is inevitable.
Once, Xie Lian was the most popular face in reality TV. After the...incident, Xie Lian is banished to 2am cable, and turns to making a different kind of show: storage hunting.
But in his final season, he suddenly acquires a new producer: a Youtube star named San Lang. And San Lang- along with his legion of fans- is determined to save the show.

Summary
Xie Lian held up the flyer, and squinted at it through the eye-holes of his mask. Beneath the words ‘Join the Selection! Be the Ghost King’s Bride!’ the sweeping eaves rendered in wobbly black ink matched the silhouette of the building in the distance. Paradise Manor. The Ghost King’s home.

...The Princess and the Pea retelling? Set before the events of the novel. The Ghost King of Paradise Manor is selecting a bride. Xie Lian doesn't really know what he's doing there.

Summary
“Do not touch me,” A-Yin said, the smile ever-present on his face, though the softer affectations he had put on his voice before had fallen away leaving only the familiar cadence of Wei Ying. “If you have such nefarious intentions, gongzi, you would do well to discuss them with our Madam.”
“Wei Ying,” Lan Wangji breathed out. His heart felt like it was unfolding in his chest. Warm, blossoming hope curling from within and filling the empty cavity that had been cold and gaping since Wei Ying had gone missing.
~
Lan Wangji comes looking for Wei Ying in Yiling when he and Jiang Wanyin have no success in finding him after vanishing for three months. Lan Wangji was certainly not expecting to find him working as a courtesan.- Language:

Summary
Deep down, he is certain he should not be allowed to have this. But he was selfish since he was a child and now he is also greedy. He takes hold of his god’s hands, the warmth giving him confidence—if he has a chance, he will grab it.
So Wu Ming takes a step closer.
“This humble believer would gladly give his god everything he has,” he declares. “If Dianxia… would be willing to take it?”
The last part clearly wasn’t supposed to come out as a question, but Xie Lian was smiling so brightly and sincerely that Wu Ming’s tone rose with surprise.
“Only if this precious believer also takes everything I have,” the god replies.
___Or,
Xie Lian wakes up to find his husband shifted into his Nameless servant from the past. He decides to spoil him with affection.

Summary
Xie Lian moonlights as an erotica writer, but he’s stuck on the ending of his latest story. Fortunately, his best friend-and-maybe-crush San Lang gives him some mysterious incense so he can live out his fictional world in his dreams and get some inspiration.
Turns out the incense-dreams are very vivid, and Xie Lian might end up regretting writing his Crown Prince alter-ego getting sold as King Jun Wu’s sex slave. Will the hero Hua Chengzhu come to save him from Jun Wu and his cronies' evil clutches?
-
Or: Several times Xie Lian is fucked by his own sub-conscious, and one time it’s San Lang.

Summary
A dragon cursed to be trapped in human shape by the royal family of Xianle, Xie Lian has already long accepted the reality of his situation by the time he finds himself being pulled out of Ghost City’s harbor. It’s fine, really. After hundreds of years, pretending to be something he isn’t is as easy as breathing.
So why does San Lang, with a pearl in his hair and a dragon-eyed sword on his belt, make it so easy to forget why he was pretending to begin with?

Here’s how shit was supposed to play out:
Ingerlund ditches Du Bois. Du Bois tanks. Du Bois meets Vicquemare. Vicquemare tanks. Vicquemare ditches Du Bois. Vicquemare gets better. Du Bois heals, or doesn’t, or moves to Graad, or paints an exterior with his interior, some Saturday evening, when the wind smells of ice. Anyway it’s not Jean’s problem.
Instead, here’s how it’s gone:
Harry, one month sober. Harry’s hundred days. Harry’s brand-new optimism. Harry’s brand-new partner.

Summary
You’ve been here before. The new you, the one that smokes like a chimney but doesn’t drink or shoot up, has been here before; 2 or maybe 3 months prior, riddled with insomnia, performing the usual ritual of walking the streets until something made sense or pulled you in. You’d stood in the early morning haze and felt something unknown and external tug at the centre of you, like an unpleasant hook through the bellybutton.
Standing here now, deeper inside the carcass of this long abandoned warehouse, swarmed at the edges by RCM patrolmen, the pull comes again, unusual and unsettling. You don’t have enough words to speak it through with your partner yet, and you hadn’t wanted to think about it before either; for once the desire to explore had been unceremoniously extinguished.
You weren’t so lucky this time.
——
In which Harry and Kim work a case and fall down a rabbit hole.

Summary
Xie Lian escapes the coffin one night. He doesn’t know how. Things become a blur after a hundred years of airless isolation in the pitch black, to say the least. He just knows one moment he was clawing at the walls of that thrice sealed coffin, and the next his lungs were full for the first time in his living memory.
