    Summary

    The Central Plains was ravaged by the fires of war.

    Two kingdoms, the Jin Empire in the west and the Qingya Empire in the east, had been engaged in a fierce conflict over territories for a long time, laying waste upon the lands and plunging the common people into two decades of devastation.

    In the midst of this seemingly endless bloodshed, two kindred souls were brought together by fate to spend a brief moment of peace, only to be separated once more by the same war that tore their families apart.

    It wasn't until twenty years later that they were finally reunited.

    On the grim battlefield, meeting face to face on their battle steeds, with a blade in hand to slaughter one another.

    Summary

    It’s a really unfortunate thing, developing a crush on your husband. Wei Ying had assumed this would be easy. Lan Zhan had been so icy and unpleasant to him, it had never occurred to him that he might end up spending the next however many years with this dumb, burning feeling in his chest whenever he looks at him.

    “Okay,” says Wei Ying. “But tell me if I…if the pretending gets to be too hard, okay?”

    “It will not,” says Lan Zhan, quietly certain.

    Summary

    The memory of it haunts his waking fantasies, his moments of weakness— that bloom of pink, like the bleed of ink on white parchment, peeking shyly out from between pale cheeks.

    He wants to put his lips on that lily white taint, wants to kiss his way up to that tender blossom and make it flower.

     

    In which Lan Xichen is obsessed with Jiang Cheng's plum blossom, and they inch very, very slowly towards penetrative sex through the ripe lands of "okay you can look at it, but you can't touch it" to "you can touch it, but you can't put your fingers in" to "maybe you can put a finger in, but only the tip!" to "just the tip of your cock" to— In the process, Lan Xichen learns to grapple with his lust, and the shame he feels at his own sexual desires.

    Summary

    Clarke sputters an indignant laugh as he takes her elbow and steers her away from the doors. “You won’t let me out of the palace and you’re calling me a difficult person? You,” she fumes, “are insufferable.”

    Bellamy merely grins. “Now that’s no way to talk to your husband.”

    Clarke forces herself to stalk away before she can give into the urge to throw her glass of wine at him. She doesn’t know why she bothers, though. Somehow, none of their guests seem to notice the clear antagonism between the king and queen, or maybe they just don’t care. And why should they? The two of them are just husband and wife.

    They’re not actually expected to like each other.

    -

    AU. Clarke marries Bellamy for a political alliance.

    Summary

    “It’s fine, you know,” Jing Beiyuan says conversationally. “No one here is in his right mind. When you think about it, this is no different than a dream – just one we happen to be sharing. Nothing that happens today needs to be real.”

    “Beiyuan, that doesn’t make any sense,” Wuxi sways on his feet and moves towards the divan they’d just vacated to brace a hand on its back, “Why–”

    Jing Beiyuan cuts him off with a raised hand, saying, “Ask me again tomorrow, if you still don’t understand. I think it will make perfect sense, when you’re sober.”

    Wuxi snaps his jaw shut. Smart boy.

    Zhou Zishu gives him a shadow of a smirk, and muses softly, “A dream.”

    “Just so,” Jing Beiyuan smiles.

    Zhou Zishu nods, and the tension in his shoulders relaxes a fraction. Jing Beiyuan walks up to him and tilts his head up to meet his eyes.

    “It’s awfully warm in here. Zishu, I think you’re wearing too many layers.”
