    Summary

    Maomao Han is a former child prodigy turned resident pharmacologist, who has her whole life ahead of her—except she doesn’t. At 22 years old, Maomao still doesn’t have a Tether, the person that will keep her tied to this life. Those who remain Untethered rarely ever make it past thirty. But Maomao isn’t one to accept her fate. She’s dedicated her few years left ahead to studying the body, hoping to find out what makes a Tether so essential to life and how to cure it. If anyone can do it, she can. She just needs more time…time that a Tether would give her, which is why she makes a deal when the elusive man she’s been looking for finally appears in her life.

    As far as he’s concerned, Jinshi is living on borrowed time. From a powerful family who has long ran an underground business, he has always had death looming over his head. 25 years old and Untethered, Jinshi is determined to live as recklessly as he wants while he still can, on his own terms. He grew up thinking life should be fast and short, and that’s how he likes it. But there's just one thing getting in his way—his Tether is gravely intent on keeping him alive.

    Modern soulmates AU of Apothecary Diaries, dual POV. Canon divergent with canon elements.

    Summary

    Her headache is easing a bit, even without the Willow Bark, and she lifts her hands to rub her temples.

    As she does so, a flash of red passes through her field of vision, which is curious, because she’s certain there is no red on any part of her wardrobe.

    She lets go of her head and inspects her hands for any possible blood.

    What she finds is far, far worse.

    A single, fragile piece of thread is looped around her left ring finger. The thread is about a foot long, and she stares at it in horror as it flutters in the breeze from the window.

    This has to be a joke.
    ~
    Maomao wakes up after her kidnapping to find that she's been sold of to the Palace as a servant girl.

    That she can handle.

    What she can't handle is the much, MUCH worse issue of the little red string she finds around her finger.

    Summary

    For some reason, Maomao remembers her and Chue's chat about the Moon Prince loitering around the former brothel.

    Would she be crazy if she considered it? Everyone else in the building believed it was haunted; if Maomao participated in a group hallucination that hardly counted as crazy.

    And so, for some reason or another, Maomao sits on her futon and looks around, before saying, “Um … Ka Zuigetsu?”

    There’s a clatter in the bathroom and Maomao’s heart is in her throat.

    No way…

     

    OR

     

    When Maomao needs a cheap place to stay, she doesn't even think twice about the low month-to-month rent at the old Verdigris House.

    So what if it used to a brothel, and everyone says it's haunted? She doesn't buy into that stuff and she's faced worse than ghosts.

    But when strange things start to happen in her room, and a pretty boy claiming to be a long lost prince keeps appearing in her bathroom, she might have to pay up.

    Maomao asks the question she always does: what's the cost?

    She should be asking: is she willing to pay it?

    Summary

    Maomao takes ginseng from a fox spirit and argues with his shrine.
    Jinshi is amused, intrigued, and entirely unprepared for an apothecary who refuses to fear him - or kiss him.
    A slow-burn, canon-divergent AU of curiosity, restraint, and unintended attachment.

    Summary

    “Oh my god, you’re Maomao!”

    “Yes, I did just say that.”

    “No, no,” Angel Man is tripping over his words, he’s so excited now, “Maomao, it’s me, Jinshi.”

    Maomao just blinks at him.

    “Who?”

    He scoffs. “What do you mean, who? How could you have forgotten your favorite neighbor?”

    Favorite neighbor?

    Why does that phrase sound familiar? She scans his face, taking in the regal nose, the purple hair, the sharp chin.

    Suddenly, unbittingly, the image of a smiling little boy peeking out from between a bunch of sunflowers comes to her mind.

    Favorite neighbor….

    “Oh!”

    She remembers now. Of course she remembers. She remembers everyone who leaves.

    Maomao saves a man from getting hit by a truck. It just so happens that this man is an important figure from her past. One she'd tried to forget, but never could. She hates her fucking life.
