    Summary

    He'd never known anything like it before. The taste of freedom had been sweet, but it only made the fall back to reality hurt that much more. Now Subaru was left wanting, every moment of every day. Death was not the end of something, for the living. It just meant that those feelings no longer had anywhere to go.

    In a way, a part of you died when you lost someone. There is a person that you are with them, and them alone. And when they are gone, that version of you ceases to exist. Hokuto took half of Subaru's soul with him, when she died. But Seishirou, too, had died in a sense — the Seishirou he knew and had fallen in love with initially did not exist.

    Subaru has a death wish.

    Summary

    Zhongli pauses the video a few seconds in. Ajax, frozen in time, rolled over to sit back on his heels, kneeling on Zhongli’s bedding. His coy smile captured in thousands of miniscule pixels and cradled in the palm of Zhongli's hand. At his disposal, in his sole possession and no one else's.

    Zhongli finds an old video. A relic of his last relationship, he knows he should delete it.

    But the video was his possession. The video was a gift.

    Summary

    “So what do you do for money, then, Su-gu-ru? Do you offer mass murder bonuses? Catering services? Do you sell your nudes?”

    “Hardly that.” Suguru scoffs. He rolls his eyes. “My nudes are not something people can afford to buy. ”

    “Hmmm, I could afford them.” Satoru shoots back with a grin. “I'm rich enough to buy your nudes.”

    Suguru levels him with a look, and there’s about half a smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth.

    “Do you wanna buy my nudes, Satoru?”

     

    ***

    A story in which Satoru ends up funding Suguru's Cult activities by buying his overprices nudes and personalized nsfw otome CDs.

    It's also character study in whether or not someone can be a genocidal mass-murder and a tsundere at the same time.

When an alien threat the Incubators failed to mention threatens the peace, one of those secrets steps out into the light.

    In the midst of it all, an ordinary girl looks to the sky, wondering at her place in the universe.

    Summary

    “I’m an angel,” the angel says, doing jazz hands a little pathetically. “It means I’m here to save you. Don’t you remember me? We met that day in the records room, but I understand if you don’t remember. You were a little distracted.”

    “I was a little distracted being stabbed,” Al-Haitham says unbelievingly. “Also, angels aren’t real.”

    In which Kaveh is an angel, Al-Haitham is a disgruntled working man, and this can't end any way but badly.

    Summary

    When Lady Ningguang proposes a contest while rebuilding the Jade Chamber, half of Liyue rushes to take part. The winner must bring Sunset Vermillionite, Wonder Cores, and Adepti Sigils. Few people have heard of the first two items, and as for the sigils, it’s hard enough to locate an Adeptus, let alone convince it to give a boon. Who in the world could possibly amass such a huge number of sigils in a short amount of time? …Wait a second.

    Summary

    “—I’ll do anything, Zhongli!” Childe cries. “So please, if you have ever loved me, give me the power to fix this!”

    He pulls Zhongli onto his lap, back flushed against his chest. When he buries his tear-streaked face into the curve of Zhongli’s shoulder, he still smells like glaze lilies and incense. So incongruent with the acrid stench of the battlefield.

    “...Ajax…”

    Childe pulls back to see the last vestiges of gold swirl in the Archon’s exhausted eyes.

    “Go with my blessings.”


    When Liyue faces an inevitable catastrophe, Childe finds himself back in the past to retrieve the Gnosis that Zhongli has lost. Perhaps if he returns to the present with it, both Liyue and its Archon can be saved.

    Summary

    “You need to savor the romance of it,” Kaveh whispers against plush lips, his hand soothingly rubbing where he’d smacked Alhaitham before. It dances near his cock—so close, yet so far.

    “The intimacy of it. You need to feel.”

    “I feel plenty,” Alhaitham growls back, and bites down on Kaveh’s lip.

    Summary

    Tartaglia is back in Snezhnaya after his successful failure in Liyue, laden with too much shame to fully acknowledge. In the aftermath of picking an ill-fated fight with none other than Il Capitano, the man he's idolized half his life, Tartaglia finds in him an unlikely new companion.

    As living once more in the land of the Goddess of Love would have it, "companion" does not stay a sufficient descriptor of their shifting relationship, and Tartaglia is as desperate for it as he is terrified. Capitano picks apart his shame, tears down walls he didn't even know he was putting up. He draws him close and keeps him there. He does things to Tartaglia that no one else has ever dreamed of doing. Tartaglia swears he won't fall in love. Never again. Not after Liyue.

    But Capitano doesn't make such promises, and Tartaglia slowly starts to realize that maybe he never really did, either.

    Summary

    Kaveh gets lost in the desert, goes into heat, and gets found by the one person who can't know what he is, or: Kaveh's No Good Very Bad Day.

    “You’re not carrying me,” he says with a weak kick.

    Alhaitham stops and lets his own legs take his full weight again; Kaveh’s ankle does something terrible for his self esteem and then he crumples almost to the sand before Alhaitham’s arm catches him again. One arm, because that’s all he needs to take Kaveh’s weight. He’s such a show off for a man whose ass never grew in. “Fuck’s sake,” Kaveh mutters to himself. 

    “You were saying?”

    “Just—go.”

    Alhaitham snorts. “Am I your servant now?”

    “Yes,” Kaveh snarls.

    “I don’t want it to look all… New Mora, you know? Nothing flashy and cold," Childe says.

    Zhongli straightens up, and Childe knows he's got his full attention now.

    Luckily, there’s a consultant from Liyue in town, known for his esoteric knowledge and meticulous nature. Who could be better to build Childe his dream home?

    Summary

    Kaveh scowls at Alhaitham from across table, cinnabar eyes narrowed under the blades of his golden lashes. His showy pen hovers over the trace paper.

    “You were doing that thing again,” Alhaitham says, returning his expression. “That thing with your tongue.”

    Sticking it out, that is, the moist pink tip curled temptingly over his lower lip. It happens more often than not whenever Kaveh’s concentration slips into deep focus. Of all the man’s terrible habits—and Alhaitham can enumerate several of them—this one has to be the most infuriating.

    Kaveh still sticks his tongue out when he concentrates. Alhaitham still notices. He’s beginning to think it’s time to show Kaveh just how distracting a tongue can be.

    Inspired by dominicgray’s fic “hide behind these words.”

    Summary

    "You're not listening," Zhongli hisses. "You're not listening and it's making me incredibly irritated. You haven't changed a bit."

    "How's that?" Ajax asks in that infuriating way like he has no idea what Zhongli's talking about, cocking his head, arching his back a little more—

    "Sit still." Another sharp tug to Ajax's hair, pulling his head back, and Zhongli can see Ajax's eyes sparkle in the dimmed lights of the office off-hours.

    "Why? You're the one being so mean to me. Shoving me around…"

    That incessant taunting — it earns a sharp backhand across the face. The sound echoes through the massive room. Ajax's head wrenches to the side, eyes flying open in surprise, and he finally balks.

    An important meeting is coming up.

    A last minute change radically alters Zhongli's plans.
