    Summary

    Black hockey skates with white laces appear in front of him, and when Mu Qing looks up, he finds a gloved hand reaching towards him, offering to help him up.

    Mu Qing takes the offered hand, struggling to sit up on bruised knees before he gingerly picks himself up and balances on the blades of his comparatively delicate figure skates.

    “What,” he hisses as he reaches down to dust off the front of his leggings, “is your fucking problem? Did someone hit you in the head? Are you stupid?”

    -

    Mu Qing is training for a figure skating competition. Feng Xin is on the local hockey team, and keeps getting in his way.

    Summary

    Really, Mu Qing has no word for the feeling in his chest. Not tight like panic, but not loose like happiness; an inbetween, a fear of everything that has been and everything that could be that warps around the secondhand furniture of their apartment and lingers in the one corner of the living room where Feng Xin shoved his workout equipment. Shining in the glint of his eye, unfurling petals in Mu Qing’s chest when it’s past midnight and they’re shouting at each other over the love triangle in a romcom they only watched because Xie Lian recommended it.

    Six months, and the two of them are the same. Always talking, always fighting, always seeking. This long, and Mu Qing doesn’t know if it’s supposed to be easy. If he should be struggling with lowering his defenses, should hate sitting on the counter while Feng Xin chops carrots and forces a sliver past his grimacing lips.

    Six months, and Mu Qing doesn’t know how to say if this is love.

    --

    Mu Qing and Feng Xin have been dating for six months. In all that time, Mu Qing has never quite known if he's in love.

    Summary

    Mu Qing gets cursed to only tell the truth. Feng Xin learns some things. (So do hualian)
    -
    “A truth curse?” he repeats uncertainly. He’s never heard of anything like that before.
    “Mn. I can control what I say for the most part, but I can’t say anything that’s not the absolute truth.”
    Feng Xin considers this. “It could be worse.”
    Mu Qing’s head snaps up, and he fixes him with a glare. “It could be better. I could be not cursed at all.”

    Summary

    For many years, Shang Qinghua stubbornly avoided the little itchy place in his brain that went “you know, here’s an idea.” And like, not gonna lie, that kind of sucked, because his brain kept itching and itching. Creativity wasn’t exactly opt-in and opt-out, you know?

    Summary

    Linguang-Jun ruins everything. He always does; it is his habit. When Mobei Li was eight he found some way, bribes, threats, or blackmail, to convince his tutor to attempt to put a knife through his back; he stopped attending lessons. When he was ten, he poisoned his favorite food, leading him to be terribly ill and nearly lose his life; he stopped eating it. When he was sixteen, he poisoned his horse in the presumed hope that it would buck him off and trample him during its death throes; he stopped riding horses.

    The need for caution and survival dictates that he must cover every weakpoint, close off any avenue for another underhanded attempt at his life. Shaving his life smaller and smaller, making himself silent and unreadable, never betraying a preference or inclination that might be noted and exploited. The only way to avoid having the things he likes most used against him and thus ruined is to avoid showing that he likes them at all. 

    -

    Mobei-Jun overhears a conversation between his uncle and his servant.

    Summary

    “Fuck this event,” Shang Qinghua mutters, pacing the holding cell Red Queen Shen Jiu has unceremoniously thrown him in on sight.

    “When does this even end? System?”

    << The Special Event will end once User 001 has fulfilled his mission. >>

    “Which is?? What?? What even is the fucking mission?!”

    << Please listen closely, User 001, as it will only be repeated once. User 001’s mission is to find himself! >>

    “What the fuck does that even mean?!”

    Or, the one where The System makes a PIDW Alice in Wonderland Special Event spinoff, featuring Shang Qinghua as Alice. The whole thing makes Shang Qinghua rethink his place in the world since transmigrating in PIDW, forcing him to examine what each of the characters represents in his life, and where he wants to take it next—in particular, his relationship with Mobei-Jun.

    A character study of Shang Qinghua/Airplane Shooting Towards the Sky focusing on his relationships with the characters he wrote some essence of himself into and the one character he didn’t.

    Summary

    Mobei-Jun does not speak human. He does not speak human even a little bit, as Shang Qinghua has tested by saying absolutely unholy filthy things to him that should have gotten him instantly murdered, but instead only earns him a blank, annoyed stare. 

    “My king, please, it’s only water. It’s unpoisoned, see? See, I’ll drink some. Ahh, tasty, safe water! Please, drink it? You’re sweating so much, you’re, like, melting.” He helps Mobei-Jun drink the water. “... God I really want to lick the sweat off your neck.” 

    Mobei-Jun does not react. Ahaha, this is kind of fun. Except for all the ways that it’s so fucking inconvenient. 

    -

    Shang Qinghua wrote PIDW to have many different languages; he does not remember this.

    Summary

    Tweek had dried icing crusting her face the first time she met Craig. Her hair was shoved haphazardly into the sorriest excuse for a bun ever to exist. Her nails were chewed to the quick and covered in chipped, yellow polish. She was, quite frankly, a mess. Usually, this wouldn’t have mattered. Tweek didn’t care what state people saw her in, especially men. Not that it particularly mattered what state women saw her in either, seeing as she was an undatable disaster of a human who had survived to the grand old age of twenty-five by sheer luck and caffeine alone.

    Or, when her customer comes to collect the custom cake they'd ordered, they're not at all what Tweek was expecting. For starters, Craig Tucker isn't a man...

    Summary

    “Either I have a stalker, or the guy just really likes old TV shows,” Tweek says. “I mean, from his check out history, he only comes down to the media center when I’m working. And he watches the same Red Racer DVDs until I have to close up. So, he might just be a super fan?”

    “Or he’s stalking you,” Wendy reminds him.

    “Or he’s stalking me," Tweek nods.

    OR - Craig likes the guy who runs the media center at the library. Tweek thinks he’s trying to kill him. Something’s got to give eventually, right?

    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.

    “You don’t have to leave now,” he tells Shang Qinghua.

    ‘You could stay here forever,’ he doesn’t say. ‘You could choose to stay with this lord forever.’

    He watches as Shang Qinghua’s throat works, but Shang Qinghua remains quiet for a long moment, until, “Are you sure about this?” He raises the xiushu in his hand. “If I leave… I won’t- You won’t ever be able to find me, Mobei Jun.”

    In the best of circumstances, Shang Qinghua wouldn’t have to be cursing all the choices that Luo Binghe makes, except Luo Binghe’s every move as the venerated ruler of the realm is so carefully observed and emulated by all the other demons.

    Luo Binghe takes a male consort? The demons watch and learn.

    Luo Binghe’s consort is a human cultivator? The demons are taking notes.

    Luo Binghe’s human consort is a Cang Qiong Peak Lord? The demons are frantically making checklists that would determine one’s suitability to be a consort, and guess who ticks all the boxes.

    (Or, the one where Shang Qinghua suddenly becomes Prime Demon Marriage Material™.)

    Summary

    Feng Xin becomes a regular at a tiny restaurant. It's only because the food is good and Xie Lian keeps dragging him there, and decidedly not because of the waiter. He swears. No matter what his friends say.


    Pei Ming winks at the waiter who catches it and goes red, while Feng Xin kicks him in earnest under the table.

    “What?” Pei Ming asks innocently. “Why are you kicking me? Are we in grade school again?”

    “Stop harassing him,” Feng Xin says, shaking his head.

    “Should I stare at him instead, hoping he gets the message?” Pei Ming asks in a saccharine voice and Feng Xin squawks. “Tell me, is that method effective?”
