    Summary

    There’s not a word for the way a heart hurts over what could have been and never was. And if there is, it’s not good enough.

    Summary

    To say that he runs to his car would be incorrect, as he is a Lan, and running is both undignified and unnecessary unless in immediate danger. Nor does he slam his key into the ignition, or aggressively swerve around the cars on the freeway, or have a mild panic attack at the fact he is picking A-Yuan up late from school for the first time ever.

    He comes close, though.

    By the time he arrives, it’s 4:35PM, and he has imagined about fifty different worse-case scenarios. The door is partly open when he gets to it, a messy label of 104B—Art Room scrawled with chalk on a placard next to the faded wood. As he opens it fully, he expects to see a wailing, terrified child, or perhaps a scene of utter misery and betrayal.

    What he finds is his son, hands covered in paint, being sung to by a beautiful, dark-haired stranger.

    “Ducks live in the pond, yellow ducks, happy ducks!”

    Lan Wangji stops in his tracks.

    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.

    “If we give him a bride,” Jiang Cheng says, solemnly. “They give us an army.”

    The bride that they seek is of the blood of a fox, and Wei Ying is the last of his kind.

    It can only be him.

    Summary

    A week ago, Nicholas got a cutely-worded, fumbling email from some guy asking if he was taking on new subs. Then, a date was set.

    It takes Vash five whole minutes to knock on the door, and as soon as it opens, one thing becomes apparently clear.

    “Vash, I presume?” Nicholas asks.

    “T-that’s me!” Vash manages.

    Oh, Nicholas knows this is going to be fun.
