    Summary

    Jabber coughs for a long, long time, and Zanka holds him throughout all of it, patting his back in a woeful attempt to make the petals come up quicker. He would wonder what it was that set Jabber off, but he was too busy trying to keep his own flowers from making an appearance, and that in itself was an entire ordeal.

    Zanka knows that the flower has finally come up when Jabber makes a retching sound, and he readjusts them so that it will land on his floor instead of his bed. Then, he wouldn't have to explain why his sheets were bloody when he took them to be washed.

    "Fuckin' hell," Jabber swears, panting as he recovers from the nearly minute-long coughing fit. He's practically limp in Zanka's hold, yet he manages to pull back just enough to wipe his mouth and the blood and spit lining his lips. His eyes are watery and red, tears slipping from the corners of them, and it has Zanka's stomach flipping horribly, his heart skipping at least two beats.

    Even now, Zanka can't help but find Jabber beautiful.

    Jabber Wonger is dying for a love that doesn't love him back, and Zanka can't help but be...affected...by this.

    Summary

    If you’d asked Jabber about a year ago where he thought he’d be in a year’s time, he would have many potential answers. “In a relationship with a Cleaner” would not be one of them.

    Honestly, Jabber wasn’t quite sure how he’d gotten this far. Not when he felt like he was bullshitting his whole way through this, with all the delicacy of an atom bomb. But he’d managed.

    Emphasis on had.

    Because as of now, it’s becoming increasingly obvious to Jabber that he’s a bit in over his head. A lot over his head, actually.

    He wasn’t made for this. It wasn’t the type of person he was. It was like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.

    But he also couldn’t lose it.

    So even if he doesn’t know what the hell he’s doing, he has no choice but to do his best. Because if he messes this up…he won’t be able to handle it.

    He could do this, though. Fake it till you make it.

    (Spoiler Alert: He in fact, does the complete opposite of “making it”)

    Summary

    "Ya gonna have to gimme summ' in return, though."

    Nothing's free, not in the transactional thing between them. "And that's what?"

    Jabber hums, tapping his chin, eyes darting around. He shrugs a few long moments later. "Dunno, man. I'll let ya know when I got summ'."

    One thing leads to another. A stab, a request, a favor. Realizations, discoveries. Slowly, things change.

    Summary

    ”Whatcha got there?” Enjin asks, a small smirk tugging at his lips. Zanka gives one long, slow blink, and glances at the drink his fingers are loosely wrapped around.

    “…a smoothie.”

    Riyo bursts out laughing. The noise startles Jabber awake, and his head knocks into his jaw. They both groan in pain.

    Or, Jabber and Zanka in the aftermath of one of their battles.

    Or, or, a comment on my last fic used this meme—so I wrote it entirely around that

    Summary

    “Excuse me?” Shen Qingqiu says dangerously, lowering his fan. His expression must be all kinds of horrifying, because Shang Qinghua’s face drains of all color and sweat begins to bead on his temple.

    “Um—” He laughs awkwardly, eyes roaming over all the available exits in the room in obvious preparation to run for his life. “It’s sort of an etiquette thing, you know? I’m sure you remember, something similar happened between Luo Binghe and a few of his wives—”

    Shen Qingqiu’s glare sharpens, promising imminent murder. “Are you telling me that I have to marry Liu Qingge because I accidentally triggered a wife plot?”

    Shen Qingqiu triggers an inane sidequest that he has no intention of completing, thank you very much, and makes up his mind to avoid every romance flag the System throws his way.

    One problem: Shen Qingqiu is already courting Liu Qingge. He is the last person to figure this out.
