    Summary

    Mingyu tugs him back by his wrist, eyes focused in the way that Seokmin recognizes as calculating.

    “What if you didn’t tell him?”

    Seokmin’s brows furrow. “What?”

    “What if you let Soonyoung believe we’re actually dating?”

    Seokmin has always been more into the idea of love than the practice itself, given the secret flame he's been fanning for his best friend of over a decade. But when his secret gets out, he turns to the only plausible option: a real life, fake relationship with his ex crush, of course.

    Summary

    “Haven’t you had enough to drink?”

    “Hmm.” Just because he can, and because he knows it will catch Kaveh’s attention again, Alhaitham reaches across the table to wrap his fingers around Kaveh’s ignored goblet. He swallows its contents quickly, ignoring Kaveh’s outraged protests.

    Across the table, Tighnari chokes. Even Cyno sets his cards down for a moment, though the frown on his face shows that he’s not particularly pleased to do so.
    - - -
    Alhaitham is not a man of excess. Except for when he is.

    Summary

    Just as Seokmin was figuring out how to maneuver himself out of the situation, an arm came around his shoulder and tugged him close into the solid warmth of someone else's chest. His pulse raced, and a hand holding two coffee cups extended past his vision before a low gravelly voice cut right into their conversation.

    "Our orders are ready to go, sorry to keep you waiting, love."

    Or: Seokmin awkwardly runs into his ex and a stranger saves him from having to face the embarrassment alone.

    Summary

    What everyone knows but no one acknowledges about Gusu Lan’s famed intersect cultivation lectures is that its true purpose is to allow the next generation of cultivators to make advantageous matches.
    What Lan Wangji knows that he is expected to find and marry someone his sect will approve of before classes end - a partner whose animal instinct will align with the Lan dragons' notoriously monogamous traditions and who will provide the Lans with a politically useful alliance.
    What he cannot acknowledge is the truth - that foxes are known to be seasonal monogamists who take each mate for a single season only; that he has fallen in love with Wei Wuxian, against what should be possible given their incompatible natures; that Wei Wuxian might be courting him too, despite the odds; and that if he bows to their mutual attraction, marrying him can only lead them both to misery.
