Summary
The first itches of arousal are always accompanied by panic signals, which make him more jumpy than usual. It’s a slow-going process to unlearn abstinence, it seems.
But Hua Cheng is attentive to his everything and supportive in the utmost, willing to patiently craft a new state of existence with him.
It’s lovely.
Usually.
—
Xie Lian wants it now, and he doesn't want Hua Cheng to take no for an answer.

Summary
When Mu Qing glanced over at Xie Lian beside him, he was startled to find him already watching him. A small smile played on his lips. “You know, Mu Qing,” he started—and if Mu Qing didn’t know any better he would say he sounded almost shy— “no one else that I fight with feels like a challenge. You’re the best of them all.”
Mu Qing’s throat was tight and his face was hot, like he was going to cry. His eyes were quite dry, though. “You’re the best. You always will be.”
-
Mu Qing can't seem to reconcile the simple facts of his relationship to the crown prince with his more complicated feelings for Xie Lian.

Summary
[Fic contains spoilers for the entirety of TGCF]
So yes, technically Hua Cheng himself took the childbearing pill, and technically Xie Lian then… Fulfilled the other role necessary in that equation. A few times. But really, it was only a joke! It had all been in good fun. Something to make Xie Lian laugh and blush.
This isn't what Hua Cheng intended.
——
Child-Bearing Pills from ghost city only work on ghosts, but they do work. Xie Lian and Hua Cheng find this out the hard way.

"Yin Yu," he says gently, sitting next to him.
"Your Highness."
"Could you tell me what San Lang was like, before he found me again? How did you two meet?"
Yin Yu looks down into the pond, watching the ripples distort his face.
"It's a long story," he says quietly, and begins.Or: how Yin Yu met Hua Cheng, how the two of them met Black Water, and what Yin Yu learned about unconditional love and revenge along the way.

Summary
Xie Lian is getting married to his ghost, which is fine, it's whatever - or it would be if it didn't make Mu Qing keep thinking about a certain person--things! Just random things!
Sometimes there’ll be a quality to the light in the mortal realm or a scent and he’s back there, like he never left: the cramped space beneath the window, the unraveling knit of a homespun blanket, a thumb pressing, light, at the pulse in his throat. Like that he’s back to being suddenly seventeen, the stupidest age imaginable. And he can prove, in short order, why that’s true.
But he doesn’t go there; he stops at threshold, draws the door firmly shut over the last full evening of his mortal life. Only it’s been harder to do that lately, and he’s been catching glimpses of it in the tail of his mind’s eye. The bead of water at the corner of Feng Xin's lip, licked slowly away. The long, heavy-lidded stare...
What's that you say? You want to read nearly 75k of Mu Qing Going Through It? Well, boy howdy, have I got great news for you...
This fic is finished. All chapters will be posted by 2/15.
