    Summary

    “Pardon me,” a low voice said from behind them.

     

    Almost as one, the Wen all turned and Wei Wuxian had to crane his neck to get a look at the speaker. Through the sweat and pain stinging his eyes, he could still say the man was probably the handsomest he'd ever seen. A cultivator, then, but not one Wei Wuxian would ever associate with one of the established sects.

     

    "You are disturbing my mother," he said.

    Summary

    It’s not that Lancelot thinks he’s entitled to anything. It’s not even that it burns to watch the two people he loves most revolve around a man he highly respects. Truly, it has nothing to do with either him or Arthur, he considers, watching Merlin quietly clean the knights’ swords by the light of the moon.

    It’s just that he thinks Merlin deserves better, sometimes.

    Summary

    “Okay,” Jingyi says, as Sizhui puzzles this out aloud. “Okay! So the demon has been turning its victims into children.”

    “I think so,” Sizhui says.

    “To make them easier prey,” Jingyi says.

    “Yes,” Sizhui says.

    “So—” Jingyi’s voice cracks here, “this kid is Senior Wei.”

    Wei Wuxian, still tangled in his own massive robes, blinks politely at them.

    (Or: Wei Wuxian is cursed on a night-hunt, and the junior quartet rapidly finds themselves in over their heads.)

    Summary

    It’s a boy. A boy in a silk pajama set. A boy in a silk pajama set with a nametag too small to read who’s colorfully cursing in the thickest Daegu drawl Yoongi’s heard since he left home and it’s absolutely, without a doubt, the most beautiful sound Yoongi’s ever heard in his life.

     

     

    (Or: Yoongi falls in love with people’s voices and, in consequence, falls in love with Taehyung.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    cried, not because of sadness, no because of frustration or angst, but because of hope, survival and empathy. beautiful. I usually joke on these or go on these weird metaphors about how the fic I'm talking about made me feel, or what color it reminds me of (this one is definitely bright yellow and baby-blue but I might be biased), this fic doesn't give me a metaphor, just a deep feeling of empathy and hope, as a survivor.

    tl,dr: sad but hopeful with beautiful characters and messages.
