    Summary

    It was inevitable, the smell—it hung around every Yujian Bang assassin and spy like a damp robe, trailing out behind them in ribbons. Prostitutes and brothel workers always smelled of flowers and tea, scholars smelled of ink and incense, and upstanding martial warriors smelled of the wind and the loam. The bottoms of ponds and rivers. Mulch. Yujian Bang, the Jade Sword Gang, smelled of blood—of animals, of Blood Prisoners, of their own.

    Summary

    Jiang Yanli knows that she is unremarkable and disappointing.

    Her constitution is weak, and her energies must be devoted to keeping her lungs full and her heart beating. She possesses neither the reflexes for skilled swordsmanship nor the sharpness for archery. Worse still, she lacks the ambition, the drive, the spine that is required of a sect heir.

    The physicians and healers at Lotus Pier warn her family to strictly limit her efforts at cultivation, as she cannot divert too much qi from her body’s primary needs. Cultivation leaves her prone to headaches, fainting, and most dangerously, the risk of qi deviation.

    Jiang Yanli can only ever cycle her qi in slow drips and thin streams. So she learns over the years to be patient with it. To be like the water, slowly wearing away at wood, stone, or whatever lies in its path towards its purpose. If this is the way for her to slowly work her qi, to carefully gather it and collect it in a usable form, she will take it.

    If her qi is too weak to cultivate by sword, she will cultivate by needle.

    Summary

    It happens like this: Lan Wangji is digging in the backyard, turning up the earth for the beginnings of his new garden. His shovel hits something hard beneath the dirt. The world explodes into shadow around him.

    A cold hand clamps down on his shoulder, and Lan Wangji feels the hair on his neck stand on end. 

    “Get lost!” screeches the voice in his ear. “Get lost, get lost, get lost!” 

    Lan Wangji's garden is haunted by an ancient spirit. He tries to set it free—with complications.

    Summary

    When Qin Su learns the truth about Jin Guangyao after the death of her son, she sacrifice summons Jiang Yanli. It goes slightly sideways.

    Jiang Yanli isn’t exactly one for revenge. But she does want her brother back, and the cultivation world could do with a bit of fixing. A resurrected Wei Wuxian is all too happy to help. But taking down Jin Guangyao would be easier if Lan Wangji stopped accidentally getting in the way.

    Summary

    Once early on, before the leaves had started to fall, they’d made eye contact as Wei Ying walked towards the exit. “Good night,” Wei Ying had called out, drowsily, as the perfunctory customer service greeting of “Good morning” had rolled off Lan Wangji’s tongue. 

    -

    Lan Wangji works the morning shift at the library. Wei Wuxian pulls all-nighters. They keep seeing each other.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian has certainly hoped so ardently in his two lifetimes, for so many different things, in so many different ways, that he could have summoned the demon to his front door with his bare hands. His eyes wander to Lan Zhan, settle on the back of his head, the blue-black curtain of his hair. Oh, how he has hoped.

    Summary

    Keith and Lance accidentally get into trouble. Shiro is the TA that has to Deal With It™.

    Lance takes this as an opportunity to wingman Keith, everyone wants to put in their two cents and Keith just wants to be left alone (with Shiro).

     


    "You guys aren't stupid," Shiro frowned. "Keith is the top of the class, and you're a close second, right?"

    "Wanna know what else Keith wants to be on top of?" Lance started, and Keith drove his heel into Lance's foot. He kept the pressure there as Shiro looked at them with a confused expression.

    "All his other classes," Lance wheezed, and Keith lifted his foot off. "Which is why I was just as surprised as everyone else when he was caught cheating."

    "I didn't cheat!" Keith grumbled and Lance stuck out his tongue. "You were caught too!"

    Summary

    While on a mission storming a HYDRA facility, James Buchanan Barnes touches one of the many strange alien devices collected by the Red Skull. He does this, in fact, twice— in the past, and in the future.

    Next thing he knows, Bucky Barnes is opening his eyes in the 21st century, which is full of great gadgets and coffee, and at least includes his old pal Steve. (And, inexplicably, a different Stark.) Meanwhile, the Winter Soldier finds himself in the middle of World War Two, helping Captain America hunt down HYDRA (which is at least familiar), pretending to be Bucky Barnes (which is not), and figuring out the very noisy group of soldiers who call themselves the Howling Commandos.

    Summary

    Barnes is now glaring at him for some reason. It's somewhat terrifying but also, oddly, a little reassuring— because that's emotion right there, which means there's still somebody behind those eyes. Somebody who seems to think Sam is being a bit slow on the uptake. "Time parameters exceeded. Mission failed."

    "Wait." Sam narrows his eyes. "Is this some kind of... report? Debriefing?"

    "Mission report," confirms Barnes, looking pleased. Well, looking slightly less murderous than before.

    In which various people deal with things they never signed up for, but at the end of the day no one's particularly surprised.
