    Xie Lian hasn’t been acting like himself for the past few days, but Hua Cheng doesn’t care, because he loves him. He loves him, he loves him, he loves him.

    It occurs to him too late that the thing in front of him might not be Xie Lian at all.

    "Ming-xiong, how come you always want me to do stuff on my own until I actually want to?"

    "That's — " Ming Yi stumbled in her words, which she rarely did. It filled Shi Qingxuan's stomach with bubbles of laughter she was forced to suppress. "That's not what I meant."

    Summary

    Xie Lian found something in himself that he thought was gone—worn away with every mistake he had made.

    Faith.

    His arms opened, and the child was hesitant—but eventually, he fell into them, his body trembling with silent sobs.

    "I remember you," he whispered again, voice breaking as Hong-er clung to him.

    I remember you.

    I remember you.

    I will always, for as long as I live, remember you.

    (A re-telling of TGCF where Xie Lian has his cursed shackle placed in his eyes, blinding him. And yet, through all of his struggles; there is always someone watching over him.)

    Summary

    The silence expands, crushing with its volume, broken only by Feng Xin’s quiet hiccups ‒ he’s crying, Mu Qing realizes. He’s actually crying, great tears dripping from his chin, out of place upon those noble features ‒ he’s crying.

    “Feng Xin,” he starts, before realizing that he doesn’t know what to say.

    .

    or: the Xian Le Trio reconciliation, through the (metaphorical) seasons.

    Summary

    Feng Xin would like to think that he has become accustomed to the variety of strange (and often unfortunate) events that surround Xie Lian. He has become accustomed to the flights of fancy, and the trash collecting, and the occasional ill-fated culinary quest. He has even, as of late, become accustomed to His Highness’ cripplingly poor choice in spouse.

    Despite all of Feng Xin’s practice in these unfortunates, however, he is not prepared for this.

    “Who are you?” Xie Lian stares up at him from a puddle of oversized white robes, his eyes wide. He is several sizes too small, and several shades too oblivious. “And, um. Where are we?”

    Beside him, Mu Qing sighs very very very deeply and pinches the bridge of his nose.

    When a curse turns Xie Lian into a child again, Feng Xin, Mu Qing, and Hua Cheng have to work together to keep him safe. Needless to say, this is a trying task for all of them.

    Summary

    Holiday time at the Kent farm. As the family hunkers down for gingerbread houses, festive movies, and a week of enforced social media detoxing, no one expects any Yuletide adventures more harrowing than Lois getting into the eggnog unsupervised again. Compared to that, Conner’s unexpected bout of sleepwalking barely makes for a passing anecdote in Ma’s scrapbook. It’s a little bit funny, even.

    Or at least it is until it becomes clearer and clearer that Conner’s wanderings have some kind of purpose. And a target. But it’s completely fine, of course! Surely Conner’s just dreaming about babysitting— that’s why he keeps trying to take Jon from his crib. Repeatedly.

    It makes perfect sense. It’s no big deal. Clark’s definitely not freaking out or anything.

    Summary

    In his recent article in Contemporary Theories of Cultivation, Lan (2019) sets out to study the correlation between instrument choice and outcomes in the liberation of spirits. While his main thesis appears sound, his decision to limit the study to the qin, dizi, xiao and pipa undermines his conclusions.

    This decision falls prey to the fallacy that tradition cannot be questioned. It ignores, too, the fact that many practising cultivators will encounter spirits that will have no exposure to such “expectations.” In a small study comparing the use of a dizi with a theremin—undoubtedly a non-traditional choice—the theremin produced optimal outcomes in liberating spirits where: time since death was less than 6 months; spirit was younger than 25 and older than 17 at time of death; or spirit motivation included aspects of revenge. The conclusions reached in Lan (2019), while providing a foundation for future study, are therefore as yet incomplete.

    Summary

    It had been so easy to imagine, because Wen Kexing has spent a lot of time steeped in his own fantasies: spending his days growing things with his own hands, assembling them into things that would nurture bodies instead of break them. Maybe A-Xiang and her stupid xiao-Cao would join them. Maybe he would be happy forever, here with A-Xu, their hair growing white together. It seemed so simple: all both of them had to do was stay.

    Could one return to paradise, after doing such things? Was it really possible to stay?

    Zhou Zishu seemed to think so. His hands were as bloody as Wen Kexing’s and yet here he was, in his soft rumpled clothes, his soft rumpled hair, lazing around before meals as if it was only his right that they be served to him. This land, where the flowers bloomed in all four seasons, had happily welcomed the cruel leader of Tian Chuang back into itself. This idiot didn’t even know where the key to all his money was, and yet he was still ready to hand it all over to Wen Kexing to do as he liked.

    Wen Kexing watches Zhou Zishu fuss around, and thinks of saying, where I come from, they don’t really call me Philanthropist Wen, you know.

    Summary

    In the middle of Jinlan City, surrounded by cultivators who years before looked down on him, Luo Binghe sang all the crimes of the peak lord of Qing Jing peak, Shen Qingqiu.

    The one time untouchable and aloof man looked at the demon with fierceness, knowing that he was trapped under the scheme of the Heavenly Demon, without anyone willing to defend him.

    Luo Binghe smiled, confident of his revenge.

    And then, Yue Qi stepped in the front.

    Head disciples Shen Qingqiu and Liu Qingge are caught by slavers and locked in a woodshed. It’s a rat trap meant for rat boys, and Liu Qingge isn’t one. Shen Qingqiu would’ve been pleased at his humiliation, if he wasn’t certain that this—either the trap or Liu Qingge himself—would utterly destroy him.

    Somehow, they make it out as friends.

    Summary

     


     
    “You take too long,” says a voice from behind him, impatient yet somehow still managing to sound almost impressed. “Well, I guess contraband really can’t compare to the real thing.”

    He turns around almost immediately, nearly scared out of his skin. Wait. What the hell? Why was he suddenly face to face with the original goods?!

    The other Shang Qinghua smiles at him. It’s terrifying and definitely eerie, seeing his own face make that expression—cruel eyes, sharp teeth. His blood runs cold in his veins.

    “Aren’t you supposed to be dead?!” he blurts out.

    “Well,” the other him mutters wryly, “Surprise.”

    the original goods have found their way into their world, and moshang, in the middle of a kidnapping attempt, discovers that PIDW moshang are the worst at this whole marriage game.
