    Summary

    “Close your eyes,” Wei Ying says, and Lan Zhan, surprisingly obedient, does. He takes a piece of the dessert and presses it gently against Lan Zhan’s lips. He notices a gentle crease between Lan Zhan’s eyebrows, at first, before he—and again this is a surprise—opens his mouth to take the bite, lips brushing against Wei Ying’s fingertip. Wei Ying wrenches his hand away, nearly dropping the plate. It’s clearly been too long since he last slept with anyone if he’s having impure thoughts about his coworkers eating food at 3pm on a Wednesday.

    Or: Lan Zhan and Wei Ying work in the NYC test kitchen for an unnamed food magazine.

    Summary

    The girl looked from the pastry to the wide brown eyes of the mayor’s son. She hadn’t expected it to work quite so easily. It was no fun tricking someone who would just hand you their food the minute you came around looking like you wanted it. She sat back up and told him, rather triumphantly, that she had just had a big lunch and that he shouldn’t be so gullible. He gave her half the pastry anyway, and she ate it, feeling like one of them was still being tricked, but not sure anymore which it was.

    Summary

    He couldn’t find anything in Wen Kexing’s body that should be keeping him from waking; it stood to reason that it was his mind that was the problem. Zhou Zishu probably knew Wen Kexing’s mind as well as anyone else alive or dead, and he doubted it was straightforward. So he read about the techniques of Healer Valley, and held Wen Kexing’s wrist or his hand or his cool cheek. The prevailing theory was that the best way to settle a person’s mind for them was in dreams. After all, wasn’t it dreams that told the truth when nothing else would?

    Zhou Zishu wasn’t sure that was true. And he didn’t imagine that Wen Kexing would appreciate having his secrets dragged into the light that way. But frankly it was his own fault; it wasn’t as though he’d left Zhou Zishu any choice. If Wen Kexing would only wake up, he would welcome his complaints.

    Summary

    "I'm not going to die of spoiled blood," Zhou Zishu groans, "Good heavens, Lao Wen ah."

    "Indeed not! I won't let you," Wen Kexing agrees, and threads the needle. They fall silent as he stitches the wound closed. He can feel Zhou Zishu's eyes on his face, but he doesn't dare look up to meet his gaze; he doesn't want to prick him by accident. No, Zhou Zishu will not die of spoiled blood.

    --

    Evening, night, and morning at Four Seasons Manor.

    Summary

    He has known, of course, that his Ah-Xu is cursed, that he is not the crotchety old man he looks to be, but still: Wen Kexing feels his heart overflow at the sight of the young man asleep before him, so still, sleeping so soundly. Ah-Xu feels safe, here. Wen Kexing muffles his groan into his sleeve as he stands, glancing down to make sure he’s not roused his sleeping cleaner. Zhou Zishu feels safe here. He cannot wake to find his charming and innocuous Lao Wen bloodied and half-charred. His calves protest his weight, light as he is, but he forces himself to step away from the bed, half-dragging himself up wooden stair by wooden stair. Zhou Zishu feels safe here. Wen Kexing cannot ruin that. 

    Or, a Howl's Moving Castle Speedrun.

    Summary

    It’s a really unfortunate thing, developing a crush on your husband. Wei Ying had assumed this would be easy. Lan Zhan had been so icy and unpleasant to him, it had never occurred to him that he might end up spending the next however many years with this dumb, burning feeling in his chest whenever he looks at him.

    “Okay,” says Wei Ying. “But tell me if I…if the pretending gets to be too hard, okay?”

    “It will not,” says Lan Zhan, quietly certain.

    Summary

    “Thank you for calling 94.1 CBC Radio, this is ‘What the Folk’, my name is Patrick and you’re on the air!” His voice sounds too loud in his headphones, and he hopes to God he’s not shouting. Shouting at his first ever on-air caller would be just his fucking luck.

    “Hi, Patrick? Yes, who do I speak to about the fact that you’ve played six Lumineers songs in the last hour?”

    *

    Patrick is a late-night folk radio DJ, David is the owner of a car with a broken radio dial and opinions that need to be shared.
