Summary
The walls bleed black again, and Castiel is deposited back into the room he was snatched from in a far more undignified manner than he left it.
~~~
His face is hot when he pulls the beer away from his mouth, a rising sense of panic fluttering in his chest. He has thought these things, known them, of course, but it feels so different now because Dean will know. He is going to look at Castiel and know exactly how he feels, what he thinks. That is...distressing.
Perhaps Dean will avoid it. He is very good at doing those things. When faced with something he simply doesn't want to acknowledge, that's his first method of handling the situation, and Castiel is sure that it will go this way again. He is banking on it, in fact.
It will be fine. He has Jack. Sam will be here, a welcome presence and a perfect buffer.
It's all going to be fine.

Summary
Cas comes back. It's not exactly the reunion that Dean is expecting.
~~~
Dean stares at him, flummoxed. Cas quite literally poured his heart out to Dean, gave a truly sappy and distressingly romantic speech and everything, then proceeded to give his life so that Dean could live his. And he wants to act like he doesn't want to see Dean, be around him, touch him?
Actually, Dean's ninety-nine percent sure that Cas probably wants to fuck him, and while he has no clue how he feels about that, he's pretty goddamn sure that means Cas doesn't get to act like this and make it authentic.
It feels strangely real, though, as if Cas wants nothing more than to get as far away from him as possible. This is a blatant contradiction. Even someone as weird as Cas doesn't want to get away from the person they have the desire to fuck five ways to Sunday, that they're in love with. That's not how these things work, so Dean isn't buying it.

Summary
So, the first thing that happens is Castiel comes back.
~~~
"Right," Dean says eventually, gruffly. He looks down at his shoes. "I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life, man. It's—you know, yours. Do your thing, love who you love, whatever. I can't really stop you from loving me, if that's what you've decided to do, but I don't—I can't—"
"I know," Castiel murmurs, still just smiling a little, not looking heartbroken at all. "Don't worry about it, Dean, that's all I ask."
"So we're—" Dean risks a glance up, swallowing thickly. "We're good?"
Castiel hums. "We're good."

Summary
"Most times when somebody sees their husband in a fucking thong shop they assume he’s cheating on them.”
Castiel blinks. “But… You’re not cheating on me…”
“I know I’m not cheating on you.”
“Which is why I assumed you were buying clothes for Eileen.”
Dean swears under his breath and pinches the bridge of his nose. “Look- Let’s just- Let’s forget this even happened, okay?” Even though it’s phrased as a question, Castiel understands it as closer to the command that it actually is.
But Castiel doesn’t want to forget this happened. Something is awkward and lingering in the air between them, in the way that Dean shifts from foot to foot and won’t meet Castiel’s eyes. And if Dean wasn’t shopping for Eileen, and he wasn’t shopping for another woman… The options for who was being shopped for are dwindling by the second.
Dean’s face is still pink. Castiel’s heart squeezes tight and forces itself up into his sternum.
“You were… shopping for yourself,” he says lowly.

Summary
“Dean. You have been overly affectionate towards me this morning,” Cas states with his brows pulled tight. Embarrassed, Dean pulls his socked foot back from he’d been teasing Cas’s ankle with it.
“What, a guy can’t show a little interest in his partner?”
“You do not appear to be interested in sex today.”
Dean feels a pit form in his stomach and he looks away briefly before forcing himself to meet Cas’s eyes. “I’ve been coming onto you all morning,” he argues.
“You haven’t smiled once while you did it.”

Summary
An unfamiliar warmth is swirling in Ruan Lanzhu’s belly, spreading lower, liquid and hot. He is not unaware of desire, of course. He’s urbane, savvy; the things he knows about sex would make even Li Dongyuan blush, but he’s never felt this acutely caught up in his own desire. It’s never felt so unwieldy.
He watches shamelessly as Ling Jiushi drops his sweater on the ground and slowly picks up another fruit from the side table. Wordlessly he holds it out, hand-feeding Ruan Lanzhu like he did before. Ruan Lanzhu lets him, working his mouth to free the flesh from the pit under the weight of that dark, unblinking gaze. He spits the pit out into Ling Jiushi’s waiting hand, never once breaking eye contact.
The air is thick with tension. Ling Jiushi takes a step closer as he holds up another lychee, and now his eyes are almost black.
----------
An Episode 23 coda (though beware, it includes references to big spoilers for the end of the series). Honestly, it writes itself. We were all thinking it. Right? (Right???)

Summary
"I want you." Ruan Nanzhu looks like he's starving.
Lin Qiushi is breathless. It is still such a new, strange thing to feel so desired. It’s like the feeling is too big for his chest, like it’s going to burst out of him like something in a monster movie. Overwhelming.
“Immediately.”
“Yeah, okay.” Lin Qiushi isn’t picky. He wants Ruan Nanzhu in all ways, all the time.
Luftpause
n. (Ger., ‘air break’). A pause for breath in wind playing or singing, often indicated by a V-shaped mark above the staff. It directs the performer of the music passage to take a breath (for wind instruments and vocalists), or to make a slight pause (for other instruments).Bookmarked by Chujiru

Summary
“Going my way?” Lin Qiushi asks as he rolls up to Ruan Nanzhu with the bike in neutral and plants his feet on the ground to steady it, looking over his shoulder at the unoccupied passenger seat.
“I didn’t know you could ride,” Ruan Nanzhu purrs, not bothering to keep the lusty appreciation out of his voice as he accepts the silent invitation and slides onto the bike behind Lin Qiushi.
“You don’t know everything about me yet, Zhu Meng,” Lin Qiushi replies with a cocky grin that makes Ruan Nanzhu want to bite him.
Allegro con moto
1. adv. or adj. (It., at a brisk lively tempo, with movement)
—used as a direction in music
2. n. (It., quickie, with motorcycle)

Summary
This is how the world actually works: instead of leading soldiers into battle, Shang is given command over a disorganized bunch of conscripted civilians who don't know the business end of a sword. Instead of fighting to defend China, he is stuck training these misfits into something resembling soldiers. And instead of being devoted to a wife or his job as a soldier, he is becoming attracted to one of his men.

Summary
Hyunju relaxes a little; she feels confident in her abilities to pass every game but spinning top. She never played that one much, but ddakji and jegi she did nearly every day when she was in school, and she had usually been assigned pitcher when she and her friends would play backyard baseball as kids. She’d also spent a lot of time with the girls playing gong-gi, which her father used to complain loudly about. Saying she was “too fragile” and “should be spending more time with the other boys.”

Canon divergent AU from Hyunju's perspective on the games, with a developing romance between her and Gyeong-seok.

Summary
After watching Youngmi's life slip away before her eyes, Hyunju was certain it was all over—the hope she'd desperately held onto died along with her closest friend. Survival felt impossible to her now.
But then, in the midst of the game's chaos, she meets Player 246 again. Same game, different room.
What she didn't expect was the bond they'd form—one that would pull her closer to him than she ever thought possible, even as she promised herself not to ever grow attached to anyone ever again.

Summary
Between the long, soulful eyefucking and what Sam alternately deems obliviousness and denial, his brother and their Angel have driven Sam right to the furthest stretches of his restraint, inching him ever closer to the moment he just says fuck it and gives them a solid shove simply to save himself the aggravation.
If he has to watch the two of them wildly pendulate between sarcastic flirting and aggressive angsting in one another’s general direction even one. more. time. he’s gonna get whiplash.
