Summary
The air in the house feels especially stilted, like a sentence left hanging. Or maybe it's just him that's been left hanging. He debates going to bed early and just sleeping the rest of his birthday away, but for some reason he stays up, keeping silent vigil.
It reminds him of the birthdays right after their thesis fell apart— and before that, the birthdays after the death of his grandmother. He realizes, belatedly, that the only times he's spent his birthday alone have been after the loss of those closest to him.
---
In which Kaveh's birthday gift to Alhaitham is a week with the house to himself.

Summary
February 14th is a troublesome day.
If Ivan were the type of person to doodle on his calendar, he might have been tempted to mark the day with a skull and crossbones. At least Till would get a kick out of it.
Or, why Ivan does not care for February 14th and why that might begin to change.

Summary
Sometimes it's hard to reconcile the different versions of Klavier Gavin in his head: the Prosecutor Gavin that stands across from him in the courtroom and the one that shone on stage not twenty minutes beforehand.
The current Klavier is radiant, but exhausted, sweaty; he's real enough to touch without getting burned.

Hua Cheng never believed in love at first sight. Love in 6 seconds though? That one's been making a very strong case for itself.

Summary
Given that this is a meet-and-greet for the C-pop group Divine, it shouldn't come as a surprise that Xie Lian's biggest fan is waiting on line to meet him.
It is a little strange, however, that said biggest fan happens to be a fellow idol and member of rival group Calamitous.

Summary
Ivan doesn’t care about art. But when he catches Till drawing him without permission, he doesn’t get angry—he asks to be drawn again. Properly.
What starts as a challenge turns into a routine: an hour a day, charcoal dust, Ivan complaining and staying anyway.

Summary
Yet, despite its overwhelming dissonance, despite all the molar-grinding concessions disguised as compromise, the appearance of the wedding itself wasn’t what now had Xie Lian choking on his own pesky expectations as they came surging sourly up his throat– but rather, the one and only empty place to be found in the entire venue.
The altar.
Xie Lian’s first thought was a mortifying head-on collision: one, that he couldn’t believe it, and two, that he should have fucking known.
-
After his decade-long, soul-sucking relationship with Jun Wu ends with being left at the altar, Xie Lian decides to take his life back into his own hands once and for all— starting with his would-be luxury honeymoon, now turned solo trip.
Out of practice with relaxation, Xie Lian doesn't expect much more than a week of privacy in which to lick his wounds and try to start over. He certainly doesn't expect San Lang, the bold and spirited young man he encounters on the way, who seems determined to raise Xie Lian’s standards /for/ him, who somehow has all the gossip on the island resort they’re both going to— as well as its notorious owner, Hua Cheng.
Maybe 'unexpected' is exactly what Xie Lian needs.

Gorgeous fic, it flows really well and it's a great example of a long fic that spans a short time frame. The chemistry between hualian feels really natural, both sweet and sexy at the same time

Summary
The first thing anyone notices about Al-Haitham is that he is beautiful. The second thing they notice is he doesn't suffer the presence of fools.
