    Summary

    So, because this is Minho’s story, and he grew up on good food and homecooked love, he recalls the blurry-edged lines of memory like it’s his favourite dessert. He starts from the soft, gooey centre. He doesn’t bother telling you the backstory, what his full name is, where his parents come from.

    Instead, he starts at the sweetest spot:

    Jisung.

    OR: A letter from the past arrives at Minho's doorstep, leaving him with no choice but to go back home and unearth a long lost love.

    Summary

    “You look,” Nie Huaisang whispers, fanning himself though there is no heat to justify it, “like a prince pretending not to be a prince.”

    “I am not pretending,” Lan Wangji replies evenly.

    “You are very bad at this incognito nonsense.”

    Lan Wangji does not respond.

    ---

    Lan Wangji, the heir to the throne of the Gusu empire, is bored. It is as plain as that. He is... bored. Nie Huaisang, as always, with such extra ordinary ideas, suggests... a night out at the festival.

    Little did Lan Wangji know that he would fall in love... on that very night.

    Summary

    “No-!” Lan Wangji surges forward, but he is too far, the water resisting every step.

    Lan Yuan struggles, small hands grasping at the stones, terror etched across his face.

    “DIEDIE!”

    Something breaks in Lan Wangji’s chest.

    Then- a sound.

    A dizi.

    Not Lan Yuan’s.

    ---

    Lan Wangji goes on his first night hunt outside of Gusu territory in five years, accompanied may his eight year old son, Lan Yuan.

    Little did they know, their lives would change forever. And for the better as well.

    Summary

    "Lan Furen?" a quiet voice asks, shaking with nerves. "I'm A-Ying. A-Zhan said I could come here sometimes, if I needed an a-niang."

    A-Ying. Li Xiaoyan remembers. A-Zhan had talked all about his friend during their last visit. She had never seen him talk so animatedly about someone else before.

    "A-Zhan's friend," she says and she watches A-Ying nod his head up and down as hope beings to flutter across his face. "What are you doing here A-Ying? Past your curfew and across the sect?"

    He shifts from foot to foot again, biting his lip. Yet she startles again when she watches tears well up in his eyes as he looks at her with a pleading expression.

    "A-Zhan won't wake up!"

    Li Xiaoyan, Lan Furen, silently complies with her imprisonment. There's nothing she can do when it could risk what little time she's allowed to see A-Huan and A-Zhan. Yet when a strange little boy stumbles into her house late one night, introducing himself as A-Zhan's friend and pleading for help, Li Xiaoyan doesn't hesitate to stumble her way into a storm to save her children. What she can save is better than what's at risk to lose.

    Summary

    There’s a solid line of warmth running down the length of his back; gentle, rhythmic puffs of air against the crown of his head; an arm across his upper body, holding him steadfastly.

    He groggily tries and fails to remember how they ended up like this. It wouldn’t be the first time Minho has snuck into his bed, but Jisung usually tends to be awake for that.

    or, Jisung wakes up to what he thinks is a regular Friday — and then he does it again, and again, until each Friday is less regular than the last.
