    Summary

    “Bro, I’m so glad you’re awake,” Shang Qinghua says. “I’ve been hanging around for nearly two weeks now, seeing if you would wake up. I mean, I could sense you down there, but I had no idea when you were going to crawl your way out. From what I could tell, your body seemed pretty well-formed, but I don’t know when you died, whether it was before me and you had some issues settling in or if it was after me or—“
    “Help me get the rest of the way out of this hole,” Shen Qingqiu says. He’s going to break into a cold sweat soon if Shang Qinghua doesn’t stop implying that he doesn’t know what happened either.

    or: Both Shang Qinghua and Shen Qingqiu die and wake up in their Sun and Moon Dew Mushroom bodies, without any clue as to who, what, when, where, why, or how this happened. Predictably, shenanigans ensue.

    Summary

    “A shaky old woman and her bastard son - you embarrass our household just by appearing on our property. Get out of my sight!” With that said, his eldest brother kicks the kneeling old woman, stomping down on her back so she cries out. 

    “A-niang!” the boy cries, face twisting with panic and anger. “Stop hurting my mother!” 

    Whether the boy would have the nerve to fight back or the wisdom to restrain himself, Shen Yuan doesn’t know, because he’s reached them all before that happens. Out of breath - he can’t remember the last time he ran anywhere, he thinks he literally vaulted over a bench - he comes to a stop, laying a hand on his eldest brother’s shoulder. 

    -

    Shen Yuan transmigrates into... a perfectly normal, down to earth historical setting? And helps out a humble washerwoman and her completely unremarkable son.

    Summary

    It was true that exploring a stallion protagonist’s back cavern was unthinkable. It was an insult to literature itself!

    But this Luo Binghe was no longer the protagonist of a stallion novel, was he? Shen Qingqiu thought as he pulled Luo Binghe even closer, resting his chin atop Luo Binghe’s head. After all, hadn’t the System clearly stated that this novel had been relabeled and moved to a different site?

    The conventions of this new genre were, imaginably, quite different. Protagonist he may be, Luo Binghe was also masochistic, needy, and a cry-baby. Could he really be expected to take the dominant role?

    No, it was becoming clear that in matters of the heart and loins, Shen Qingqiu couldn’t rely on Luo Binghe’s stallion qualities. Rather, what Luo Binghe needed…

    …was his Shizun to guide the way.

    -

    My take on an alternate version of BingQiu's second first time in the Bamboo House, but Luo Binghe bottoms and Shen Qingqiu tops.

    Summary

    There’s a yelp, and the splash of something hot. Even with the breath knocked out of him, Luo Binghe somehow manages to keep his footing. The other man is not so lucky; he bounces off Luo Binghe’s chest like a rag doll, arms wheeling as he’s thrown backwards from the force of their collision.

    Any other day, Luo Binghe might have let the stranger fall out of pure spite, but he gets a glimpse of wide, dark eyes and his body moves before he can even think, darting forward.

    Barista Luo Binghe is having a terrible morning. Then he runs headfirst into a perfect stranger and becomes convinced they are soulmates from a past life.

    Summary

    With his rut coming on, Shen Yuan knows better than to leave the safety and comfort of his apartment. Still, it is tempting to go out with Luo Binghe, even if he would be tagging along just to keep an eye on his alpha best friend who is absolutely capable of taking care of himself!

    He won't of course! Even if it is difficult to decline Luo Binghe's invitation! So instead Shen Yuan resigns himself to a night spent alone. It's fine! He can handle his rut on his own - he's been doing it for years!

    What Shen Yuan doesn't expect is to hear from Luo Binghe much earlier than the expected "home safe and sound" text...

    Summary

    Xie Lian has spent long enough around sirens to have some grasp of their communication, and some of it is even a little similar to mer noises. This sound, for example, is like the one podmates use to call for each other—curious, beckoning. He suspects it means much the same thing for sirens. Has this siren lost someone, maybe?

    Hopefully it will find its lost someone soon, so Xie Lian can go back to sleep.

    Then, because nothing good can ever happen to Xie Lian, the siren peeks beneath the overhang. It hangs its head over the jut of stone, its hair billowing like a crown of ink and the yellow sclera of its eye bright against the black. That singular eye catches on his, its pupil dilating, and Xie Lian stiffens.

    Summary

    But everything before the conference, he remembered perfectly well! He knew that he was the lord of Qing Jing Peak—though he couldn’t quite recall his discipleship or being appointed peak lord. He knew each and every one of the disciples he was master to, even if he struggled to remember small details like actually selecting them and bringing them onto the peak. He knew that he used to be a rather strict and harsh master—especially so with Luo Binghe—before he eased up and gradually became a bit more like the teacher he was nowadays. Even though he…couldn’t really remember…why he was so harsh…

    Okay, so maybe Shen Qingqiu didn’t remember as much as he thought he did.

    On the anniversary of the Immortal Alliance Conference, Shen Qingqiu forgets.

    Summary

    In spring of the year that Shen Jiu becomes Head Disciple of Qing Jing Peak, his youngest sibling is born in the back room of a poorhouse. Unwilling to raise an unlucky child, his parents sell him to a brokerage at their earliest opportunity.

    Nine years later, when disease tears through the brokerage, he risks speaking up about the things he’s learned from dreams of his past life.

    By the time Mu Qingfang arrives with his disciples to quell the epidemic, it’s already under control, at the direction of a little boy who’s been a slave since infancy.

    Cang Qiong’s Miracle Doctor takes him back to Qian Cao Peak and dresses him in blue and white. His new disciple pours tea for him with trembling excitement.

    By the end of the day, his older brother all but kicks the door down, breathing fire and poison.

    I exhaled. “Organic parts gross me out.”
    It was still waiting with its feed open. It said, “So you’ve said.”
    There was the weirdest tension in my abdominal area. “But this doesn’t involve organic parts.”
    Another beat of silence. ART’s tone changed. “No.”

    /ART writes a code. Murderbot runs it. Nothing for anyone to get weird over.

    While helping ART pack for a new colony rescue mission, Murderbot finds a discrepancy in its crew manifest. The truth is weirder and more emotionally loaded than it ever expected.

    People have commented on how MB as a SecUnit might relate to ART as analogous to a HubSystem and what that means for their relationship, but how does ART, as a bot pilot designed to pilot drones and shuttles and split itself into multiple pieces, relate to having a SecUnit on board?

    SecUnit and ART watch a musical theatre performance involving two human-form bots that fall in love. SecUnit thinks romance is dumb, but it's cool to see media where bots can be such good friends, the way that it and ART are good friends.

    ART quietly has a panic attack.

    Summary

    We were watching Sanctuary Moon when it happened.

    We’d gotten to the part where Captain Hossein and the Navigation Unit were stranded planetside—the whole scene bathed in violet hues to bring out the romantic overtones. (Much more appealing than actual planets.)

    “I love this bit,” Ratthi said.

    Truthfully, I like it, too. And I could have said as much. Or I could have said nothing at all. Both were valid options. But instead, I decided to be the contrary asshole and went with option C.

    “It’s implausible,” I said.

    Ratthi looked confused and I realized I needed to elaborate.

    “There’s no way a unit built to navigate starships would take a romantic interest in somebody.”

    And that’s when I felt it—the sudden absence. If I’m honest, I hadn’t realized how closely ART had managed to sidle up against me in the feed until it was gone.

    OR

    An offhand comment leads to a misunderstanding between SecUnit and ART, and—possibly—a discussion about what they really are to each other.

    Summary

    It had been an accident.

    All I knew was that one moment, I’d been getting torn to pieces by a raiding party breaching one of the airlocks, and in the next they’d been dead, and then ART’s full attention- nearly 100% of its processing power- had been flowing through me, and it had been probably the most fucked-up orgasm-adjacent Thing that anyone, organic or otherwise, had ever experienced.

    Not least because one of my arms had been thrown across the room seconds before it had happened.
