    Summary

    Wei Ying gave up necromancy years ago. He should be done with hauntings, but here in his café, here in this quiet city at the edge of the world, there stands a ghost dressed in mourning white with eyes like warm honey at the bottom of the pot.

    (The one where it's a café AU - only it's not.)

    Summary

    He hadn’t come here with a contract. He’d come here to get the faces out of his head: the bloodless dead sprawled in heaps through the streets of Beauclair, the morning after the rampage Detlaff had unleashed; the blank eyes of the boy in the orphanage tilting his head to let Orianna drink from his throat, with the lullaby she’d been singing him still hanging in the air.

    Wasn’t working that well so far.

    Summary

    Framed by the soft morning light, sleek hair swept back and pale blue robes not even slightly rumpled, he looks almost inhuman.

    He looks like the last person who should be knocking on Wei Wuxian’s door.

    In which Wei Wuxian is a curse worker secretly searching for a lost dragon, Lan Wangji is his new assistant, and the two things may not be entirely unrelated.

    Summary

    If you’ve ever believed me in anything, believe I want what’s best for Jin Ling, the first line of the letter reads.

    Jiang Cheng has to stop and take a moment before he continues on to the next line:

    You must come to Carp Tower as soon as you can and lavish praise on the ugliest dog I’ve ever seen.

    Summary

    And will you come to bed with me, to warm the blankets with your thighs and chest? Will you let me lean my head against your shoulder and stare with me out the window, blurred with nighttime? Will you stay until morning? And tomorrow? And the next? Will you take up space for me, Wei Ying, so there is less empty air?
