    Summary

    Once inseparable in their Akademiya days, Cyno and Tighnari made a half-joking pact that if they both ended up single as adults, then they’d be each other’s backup plan.

    All these years later..

    The pact was never meant to be taken seriously.

    Or was it?

    Summary

    “Who the fuck is THIS!” Feng Xin yells when he finally finds his voice, pointing at the nondescript man kissing Ink Mu Qing’s neck.

    “Who do you think?” Mu Qing grabs an ornamental paperweight off the desk and throws it at him. “Can’t you read? It’s supposed to be you!”

    The paperweight hits Feng Xin square in the chest. He doesn’t flinch, or even seem to feel it at all, because he’s looking at the drawing again.

    “It doesn’t even look like me!” He shouts, like this is the problem.

    -

    There's a new art movement popping up in the South, depicting Xuan Zhen and Nan Yang as a couple. Mu Qing is NOT handling it well.

    Summary

    It had evolved into this, a tension clinging to them like damp wool, making the air between them heavy and sour, the silence pressing so hard against Mu Qing’s skin it felt like it would split him open. He should have been used to it, the biting cold of being at odds with Feng Xin, the bitter taste of saying too much, too wrong, but he wasn’t. Every time, it left him raw, unsettled, off-balance in a way that made him want to lash out, to run, to do anything but stand there and let the silence swallow him.


    Feng Xin never meant for it to end like this—mud, rain, blood, and the quiet terror of almost too late. Now Mu Qing won’t wake, and Feng Xin won’t leave his side. Apologies catch in the back of his throat, pining digs into old wounds, and hope—fragile, stubborn—glows in the dark like dawn through storm clouds. Maybe this time, they’ll both learn how to stay without tearing each other apart.

    Summary

    Little should logically connect Neuvillette and Wriothesley, beyond business and paperwork. Each hides behind their own kind of shield, one of distant impartiality and the other of cold humor. They operate in separate worlds, with different tastes, different manners, and vastly different methods.

    And yet neither of them can seem to manage such a distant sort of relationship. Their stories continue to intertwine, and without really meaning to, they draw one another in, until their orbits are practically aligned.

    Around them, Fontaine’s prophesied demise looms, dragging long buried secrets to light and testing the both of them in the process. As the flood draws nearer, they will have to confront not only this tentative warmth between them, but their own flaws, fears, and wishes as well.

    Summary

    “Shut up, loser.” Till answered, still not looking at Ivan.

    “I’m not a loser. I have friends.”

    “Oh yeah? Who?”

    “Well, you’re my friend. I consider you as my friend.” Ivan answered, his tone still as calm as always.

    “We aren’t friends, jeez. Now leave me alone.”

    “If you aren’t friends with me, then you’re a loser as well."

    “You—! Say that again!”

    Till’s face heated up and his cheek flushed. He angrily pushed Ivan away with his elbow, but Ivan threw himself back onto Till, wrapping his arms around Till’s neck from behind.

    ──────────────────

    Till and Ivan as they grew up in Anakt Garden. Till slowly realizes how Ivan is important to him. And Ivan slowly realizes how much he wishes for his gaze to meet Till's truly, just for once.

    What if they both realized their feelings- understood each other- before Alien Stage?

    Summary

    “Where am I supposed to look?” He finally managed to ask, momentarily rendered speechless by Yotasuke’s take on the assignment.
    “Right at me.” Yotasuke finally reappeared from behind the easel, expression unreadable as always. Yatora’s face heated up, and he couldn’t place the reason why.
    “...Okay.”

    Yatora always thought about Yotasuke because of his beautiful art and his cold personality. He used him as a source of inspiration, and perhaps even jealously. But when they started going to TUA together, Yatora began to think about Yotasuke for other reasons.

    Summary

    Amidst the blossoming recent developments of their relationship, Feng Xin and Mu Qing are summoned to investigate strange new occurrences in an island shared between their two southern domains. They quickly realize that the island holds secrets which may be beyond even their comprehension: declining worship, broken arrays, poisons, a cult leader, an atheist governor, inter-sect conflict, political instability, a vibrant red-light district, a mangrove monster, ghostly interventions, and a secret history which cannot remain buried forever....

    Feng Xin knows that he and Mu Qing are something. But is it love, or is Mu Qing only curious about one thing? And can they clear up their misunderstandings, or is courting Mu Qing a bad idea from the start, doomed to fail like his last great love?

    Mu Qing doesn't know what he wants. He knows that Feng Xin is attracted to him, but will Feng Xin stay by his side once he gets what he's after? Is it worth the risk of opening up, or is he putting his cultivation--and their current relationship--in danger?

    Title is from Li Yu's poem, My Idle Dreams Roam Far (Gazing at the South).
