Summary
This is penance, then, he decides. No matter how his skin prickles and his heart squeezes too tight, this is a pure kind of penance. Aventurine chooses the shape of retribution and if this is it Sunday will accept it. It is only fair.
or: Sunday may or may not be misinterpreting a drunk Aventurine's interest in him.

Summary
There’s a pair of eyes above him, silvery and sharp, lined in scarlet. Set in a youthful, handsome face, framed by dark hair and the glint of an earring. A young man. He’s frowning, his palm frigid against Jing Yuan’s forehead.
“There you are,” Jing Yuan whispers.
An immortal dragon finds a fatally injured human within the boundaries of his domain.

Summary
Recognition bleeds into Dan Heng’s face. Cloud-Piercer dissipates into glowing vapor; then his horns, his long hair. His clothing resolves itself back into the coat and dark shirt Stelle is familiar with, equally damaged, scuffed and bloody and frayed when Stelle has never seen him with so much as a hair out of place.
“Stelle,” he says, and then it’s like all of his strings are cut at once. He falls.
Hoolay takes Dan Heng instead.

Summary
This morning when Lan Zhan had first arrived, Wei Wuxian had started off with a teasing suggestion that the two of them go pheasant hunting together. He fully expected Lan Wangji to say no. He even had other, more palatable suggestions lined up in his mind, ready to go when Lan Wangji inevitably shot the idea down.
To his surprise, Lan Wangji simply looked at him, nodded, and said, "If that is what you want."
His tone had been so deadly serious that Wei Wuxian hadn’t known what to do, so he’d just rolled with it.
or, Wei Wuxian tries and miserably fails to call Lan Wangji's bluff.

occupational hazards, and other half-truths by placesinfive

Summary
The story begins like this:
There is a legend in Fontaine,
That every time the sky does rain,
It comes, not from wind, or cloud, or sky,
But from the great Hydro Dragon, feeling sad enough to cry.
Or,
In which Freminet, somehow, keeps running into none other than the Chief Justice himself.
Things all sort of begin to unravel from there.

Summary
She respects Kazuma, of course. His legal knowledge is expansive, and his application of that knowledge is unmatched. He’s a master of the blade, a dedicated student, and the best brother she could have asked for. Without him, Susato may have never found her interest in the law, let alone have that interest be so thoroughly entertained. Her respect for Kazuma is as boundless as the great sea before them, and she owes him so much.
It’s just that beneath all of that, Asogi Kazuma is a lovesick twenty-something with a penchant for the melodramatic, and that makes him deeply, deeply annoying.

Summary
“Seems like it worked,” says a nearby voice. There’s a faint undercurrent of excitement in it, bordering on glee. Like a child about to get a red packet for the New Year.
Wei Wuxian looks in the direction of the speaker with a flinch, the light streaming in from the entryway momentarily blinding. He barely manages to stay upright, holding the bleeding arm close to his middle and balancing on the other.
What the fuck is happening?
“I guess he wasn’t so useless after all,” a second voice says. This one is calmer, and familiar to him. His eyes lock onto Jin Guangyao’s ever-pleasant face, then note the punk hanging back half a step behind him, grinning wide and looking a little manic.
“Welcome back, Yiling Laozu,” Jin Guangyao says.
---
or: Mo Xuanyu performs the resurrection ritual while he’s still living in Koi Tower.
Wei Wuxian can have a little murder? As a treat?...

Summary
Gaon smiles at her, baffled. "It's just a game," he says as he collects the counters and Elijah gives him a dark look.
"No it isn't."
That was the first sign that Gaon, like a bumbling idiot, completely ignored.
Or the one where Gaon realises he's been living with two very competitive people.

Summary
As grateful as Ga On is that Soo Hyun rescued him from Bamboo Spear's violent mob, he can tell she's lying when she claims to have heard about it on the police radio. That explanation just doesn't add up. So Ga On pressures her to tell the truth and, to his surprise, she reveals that Kang Yo Han was the one who sent her.
That one simple admission sets off a series of events that Ga On could never have predicted — events that bring out feelings he's done his best to ignore.
And desires he realizes he might not be strong enough to resist.

Summary
Wei Wuxian is fatally injured, but Lan Wangji is nothing if not stubborn.
“If I was gone, Hanguang-Jun, what would you do?”
He asks it on a quiet morning at the end of summer, the hum and click of insects outside whispering into the Jingshi. It’s warm once the mist burns off the Recesses, and bright with dappled sunlight.
Lan Wangji looks at him, brow pinched. “Nothing,” he says after a moment.
It is, he discovers three months later, the first lie Lan Wangji has ever told.

Summary
“What do you want me to do?” Remus says, tiredly. All he wants is to curl up on his bed. Smoke a pack of cigarettes. Get drunk. He can’t stop looking at Harry.
“Remus...” Dumbledore is gentle. Remus hates when he has that tone. Hates that he knows it will hurt. “There is no one else left.”
A bitter laugh escapes him. “So you’ll curse the poor thing with a werewolf for a guardian?”

Summary
Wei Wuxian is thirty-five years old, lanky and tough-skinned from the turns his life has taken. He's dirty with synthetic grit and the skin-sticky feeling of being in space too long, but he'd forgone a dry shower at the docking portal. He hadn't wanted to miss catching the hover, and it's been years since he's needed to look presentable. Years since there's been anyone he wanted to impress with his appearance. He should have known better. The Mess Popo had promised the views on Yueliang were beautiful. Wei Wuxian clutches the strap of his pack and swallows his snack around the sudden lump in his throat. She had no idea how beautiful.
"Wei Ying?"
Years after the war, Wei Wuxian finds someone he'd thought long dead.

Summary
Sòng Zǐchēn had almost taken a different path, that morning. Turned right instead of left, kept north instead of venturing south. He approaches a crossroad and wonders which direction to take. Perhaps towards the closer town, to ask his same question to a new crowd once more. A flicker of white catches his attention - a man, tall and graceful. Even with Shuānghuá covered, he would recognise Xiǎo Xīngchén anywhere.
