Summary
Prompt fill for day 4 of Yunfei Week Spring 2021, prompt: "Canon Divergence".
Zhou Fei doesn’t want to return to the 48 Strongholds with him like this. She doesn’t want to bury him. She doesn’t want his mountain spirit, she wants him. She doesn’t want to scold him at all, she never wants to scold him again. She wishes she could undo all she had done, all these careless moments of crude dismissiveness, the little rejections when he teased her and smiled and played with his ponytail. She wishes she could have teased him back more, smiled and toed the line, made his cheeks burn like that time she forced her way into his room that night, armed with alcohol and a hand on his lightly-clothed knee.
She wishes she had kissed him already.
Or,
Zhou Fei remembers to take the pill given to her by Ying Hecong. When Xie Yun collapses, she doesn't.

Summary
There’s something lodged deep in Zhou Fei’s chest. Not all the time, no. But it’s there in the quiet moments when the sun rises and she wakes up to a deserted bed. When the sloshing water of Xie Yun washing in their bathtub is the water entering invading her ears and nostrils, her mouth. When the sun sets and she sits outside their quarters, looking around for enemies that will never come. The static nature of the 48 Strongholds stifles her. It’s too quiet, it’s too still. Shadows hide in the corners of her mother’s rooms and they smell of poison.
Or,
Zhou Fei is forced to deal with the ways her past trauma has changed her. Xie Yun is there to help.
Part 4 of a series of one-shots.

Summary
Prompt fill for day 2 of Yunfei Week Spring 2021, prompt: "Sexual Exploration".
“I’m ready,” he announces, stretching his arms like a starfish.
“Punch me in the leg to stop me,” she tells him seriously, although Xie Yun finds it somewhat difficult to smother his smile when her words sound slurred.
“You sound like you’re drunk,” he laughs, squeezing her thigh. “I won’t punch you.”
“Xie Yun.”
Xie Yun sighs. “Fine, I’ll punch you. Softly. More like a lover’s tap.”
Or,
Xie Yun realizes Zhou Fei is a vampire and employs every trick in the book to get her to bite him.

Summary
Prompt fill for day 1 of Yunfei Week Spring 2021, prompt: "In Between the Moments".
“I’ve already given half the book to Yin Hecong,” she tells him, rubbing a hand over his clothed thigh. “When we get back and get him the other half, he’ll have the cure figured out in no time.”
Xie Yun’s eyes flutter close. “Maybe.”
Zhou Fei cocks hear head. “Maybe?”
The ghost of a smile appears on Xie Yun’s pallid lips. “He really wants to study my corpse, maybe he’s misplaced the other half already.”
“Don’t say that,” Zhou Fei gasps, smacking him on the thigh.
“I’m joking, I’m joking,” Xie Yun murmurs, opening his eyes and squinting at her. “Heroine, don’t hit me. Don’t you pity this weak, dying scholar?”
Zhou Fei’s eyes burn. “Xie Yun.”
“A Fei,” he says, covering her hand with his and lacing his fingers over her own. “I’m just tired. I’m okay.”
“Can you sleep?” Zhou Fei asks, biting her lip. Her seashell bracelet digs into her wrist where Xie Yun’s pressing his cold hand against hers and it’s nothing but comforting.
“With a mighty guard watching over me?” Xie Yun responds, offering her a lopsided smile. “Of course.”

Summary
There’s a hint of blue on the horizon, beyond pregnant black storm clouds, and Snafu watches the storm roll in with something deeply humbling settling into his bones. Sometimes it feels like he lives on the very edge of the world; the whole earth rolling out at his feet, a silent witness to the whims and changeable moods of the planet. His tiny little slice of pure nature in the middle of the great blue beyond, ocean stretching as far as the eye can see.

Summary
Sledge is struggling with the flimsy can opener they each got in their pack, hands unused to the motion. Distantly, Snafu wonders if the boy ever had to open a can for himself. "Here," he says, and offers Sledge his already open can. "Trade ya."
Sledge at least has the decency to quickly hide his surprise with gratitude as they switch cans. He looks down at his newly acquired meal with something akin to pride, and Snafu thinks that he wants to see him smile more.

Summary
Put simply, dynamic kinetic stability proposes that variation in a system which improves or maintains system longevity will persist, while any variation decreasing stability will be selected against. According to chemical kinetics, more complex molecules are usually more stable. Therefore, variations increasing the molecular complexity of system components will persist, because they also enhance the longevity of the system at large.
Or, how a complex relationship evolves between two unlikely partners: a worn-out gunner, Snafu Shelton, and an optimistic pilot, Eugene Sledge.

Summary
He wonders how long he had been sitting like that, knows that Snafu only turns on the radio when the quiet becomes too much to bear, and only hums like that when he’s lost in his own thoughts. Behind every door in that man’s head there’s a skeleton and another door without a key, he thinks. So he says, “Sure.” and drops it. “Anything good on the radio?”

Summary
In the fall of 1953, Eugene sends an ad to the San Francisco Chronicle. It reads:
Professional single male, late 20s, located in Dogpatch. Clean, considerate & responsible, seeking similar. Pets O.K. Smoking O.K. First month + security up front. Contact Eugene for details. Serious enquiries only.
Eugene is freshly divorced and outgrowing the life he had painstakingly made for himself after returning from war. Merriell is grieving, aimless, roaming the length of the Pacific coast looking for a place to collect himself. The first time they speak, Eugene is suffering a late summer nosebleed. Merriell had just pawned his mother's earrings for first month's rent. He moves in the same day.
feat. splinters, workwear, payphone calls, cruising. the delicate hot-house flower that is merriell. eugene at his most neurotic. sea fog & starlings & improbably hot first time sex. the inherent insanity of falling for your landlord.
