    Summary

    “Are you gonna talk first,” Wei Wuxian mutters. “I was sort of assuming you would talk first.”

    The corner of Lan Wangji’s mouth twitches a bit, but he obediently speaks. “Welcome back to the channel, my friends. In this series, I have teamed up with noted engineer and PBS collaborator Wei Wuxian, to build a vertical hydroponic system to produce fresh, nutritious greens.”

    “That’s right! We have to fatten up Lan Wangji’s rabbits—in a hurry too, only six months until New Years’ dinner—hah kidding, Hanguang-jun, kidding!”

    The video abruptly cuts to a still frame: Lan Wangji sitting cross-legged in the middle of a sunlit outdoor pen. His white clothes are rumpled and dotted with bits of hay. Two plump rabbits rest in his arms; one is draped lazily over his shoulder, half-asleep. Several more crowd his lap and legs, some nuzzling his sleeves, one nibbling at the hem of his shorts. One tiny white rabbit kitten perches on his pristine white sneaker. A soft comedic chime sound effect plays, and a bright caption bounces onto the bottom of the frame in a cheerful font: THE CLIENTS.

    Summary

    Dimitri doesn’t do connections. He doesn’t do hobbies or nights out or dates. He works from home as a shitty project manager, goes to the gym at two in the morning, and is miserable all the time. Now that his parents and stepsister are gone, nothing else feels right.

    But when his panic attacks and anxiety come to a head, his therapist suggests he take on a ‘tactile hobby’ to ground himself. Visual art is out of the question, too free-form. The idea that he might create something that says something about himself is petrifying. He needs an activity that has instructions attached. Woodworking? In his tiny apartment? Baking? He couldn’t taste it anyway. So that’s how Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd finds himself walking out of a craft store with a pair of size eight knitting needles and a cheap ball of yarn.

    “This better fucking work.”

    OR: Dimitri hits rock bottom, and the only way left to go is up.

    Summary

    Your breath comes in waves, barely containing the thrumming under your skin. You are close, much closer than you remember being minutes ago, warm breath intermingling as you stare at one another with matching looks of desperation. It's too bright to look at directly - you sidestep his questions. "...and what happened to you wanting to pretend?"

    "If I really wanted that, would I be sitting here, staring your lips like they're a lifeline?" He asks gruffly.

    You open your mouth, then close it. Try again. "....I thought you said we should get control over -" Your eyes dip as his teeth catch against his bottom lip, "Whatever is happening.”

    Caleb swallows hard, his voice dropping to a near whisper. "Control? You already have it. You might as well be holding the leash. Just…let it go.”

    Loosely based after that one text in game where MC says that Caleb is the most important person to her, and he responds with "I know". To me, that informed us that He knows, and she knows he knows. I crashed out and wrote nearly 20k trying to make them have that conversation. Enjoy!
