    Summary

    High Sage Kenji blesses Fire Prince Zuko with the resilience of the reed, who bends in the wind and never breaks. When he is done, Fire Prince Ozai narrows his eyes, seemingly displeased by this blessing. But Kenji does not speak for himself; he is only a vessel. 

    -

    The newly-crowned Fire Lord Ozai offers his firstborn son to service in the temple.

    This turns out to be a catastrophic mistake.

    Summary

    November 1983. Between unpaid bills, the supposedly straight jock he’s seeing, and letters from his convict dad, seventeen year old Eddie Munson’s got enough to worry about. But when Will Byers goes missing, it sparks a chain of events that will show there are more depths to Hawkins — and to certain people in it, like infamous Steve ‘The Hair’ Harrington — than he realizes.

    / or, the excessively long slow-burn in which Eddie is involved in the Upside Down from the very beginning.

    Summary

    Wei Ying gave up necromancy years ago. He should be done with hauntings, but here in his café, here in this quiet city at the edge of the world, there stands a ghost dressed in mourning white with eyes like warm honey at the bottom of the pot.

    (The one where it's a café AU - only it's not.)

    Summary

    “If only one could root one’s self in here among the grass and stones and do something worth doing” —Gaudy Night, Dorothy L. Sayers

     

    "So, what sort of inquiry takes four people to conduct?" Wen Qing asked, when they were seated.

     

    To her surprise, the others looked to Jiang Cheng, who met her gaze for the first time. He looked sharper than she remembered, as if grief and his change in station had honed his edges.

     

    "The others are here as witnesses. I'm here with a proposal." He took a deep breath and carefully clasped his hands on the table between them.

     

    In the aftermath of the Sunshot Campaign, Jiang Cheng offers the Wens another choice.

    Summary

    “I’m not here to help you with your work,” said Lan Zhan, injecting frost into his voice to deter any further attempts at charm. “I’ll be focusing on my research.”

     

    Wei Ying cocked his head. “Research?” he said.

     

    “Mm. I’m a cultivation researcher, not a department employee. I’m reconstructing the ancient musical cultivation techniques of the Lan clan.”

     

    ___

    Lan Zhan’s new liaison at the Caiyi Municipal Cultivation Department is an enigma – ridiculously talented, yet somehow content with mopping up spiritual pests for barely above minimum wage. Wei Ying is slapdash and irresponsible, and Lan Zhan doesn’t like him at all… but then he meets A-Yuan, who loves music and longs for a piano his father can’t afford.

    Forced into cautious friendship by a four-year-old's music lessons, Lan Zhan soon realises Wei Ying is more than he seems. The single father is a man of many secrets – including, perhaps, the key to Lan Zhan's life's work. And in the meantime, the background resentment in Caiyi Town is rising to dangerous levels…

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian gets caught sneaking into Cloud Recesses.

    But since he can't tell the truth - that he's just here to deliver his teacher's most recent love letter to her soulmate who's stuck in a cave - he tells a lie instead. He says that he's a Jiang disciple that had arrived late and so had snuck in through the gates. He hadn't expected the lie to work, sure that it would unravel as soon as they found a Jiang to verify it, but instead Jiang Yanli backs up his story, and even adds to it.

    Which is how he ends up masquerading as the first disciple of Lotus Pier while trying to figure out how to get out of Cloud Recesses without anyone discovering that he's the disciple of Baoshan Sanren.

    Summary

    This emotional song talks about the promises of a loved one who promises to do anything for the person in question. I found the lyrics truly poetic and translated them into literal Hieroglyphs, thought that the wonderful words would look good in words such obscure... The next chapters will have the literal translation into English and the original lyrics!

    Enjoy!

    Summary

    No,” she told the goose firmly. It regarded her with one baleful, shiny black eye for a moment, then resumed pecking the glass. Katy slammed the curtains shut. She could hear an indignant “HONK” from outside. She crossed her arms and scowled.

    Katy was way too old for this shit. She’d always assumed she was one of the 60% or so of the population who didn’t have a soulmate, and never had to deal with the accompanying goose, which by the way was supposed to be snow-white and covered in the softest down, not a bog-standard Canada goose with a mud-colored body and a serial killer’s temperament.

    Anyway, she was not meeting her soulmate today, she didn’t believe in soulmates anyway, she was polyamorous and ought to by all rights be exempt. It was probably just a regular goose that got lost on its way to shit all over the golf course.

    ~*~

    Katy's hangover is made all the worse by the sudden appearance of the Soulmate Goose.
