    Summary

    "He looks down at the animal, now completely still. What would have happened to it had Cheng Xiaoshi not been there? Would someone on the road have gotten out of their car to help? Would another bystander run in like Cheng Xiaoshi had? Would any of them have sat with the poor thing while it took its last breath? Maybe it would’ve died alone in the rain. Or maybe it wouldn’t have died at all. Maybe the driver got distracted by the two of them, or maybe the dog was crossing the street to get to them. It doesn’t matter, Lu Guang supposes. There’s no changing the choices each of them made. The past must remain untouched. With one exception. The only exception."

    I was listening to Abstract (Psychopomp) by Hozier for the millionth time and realized the subject of the song is very Cheng Xiaoshi-coded so I wrote a one shot about it

    An unexpected getaway leads to a series of confrontations, intimate or otherwise, yet even mirrors are prone to shattering if tampered all too much.

    Summary

    “Cheng Xiaoshi,” Lu Guang says. “Why did you stop me?” He squeezes Cheng Xiaoshi’s hand—encouragement, reassurance, maybe. As timelines pass, Lu Guang gets better at speaking his language.

    “I…” Hesitation. “I guess I wanted you to stay.”
    |
    In every timeline, Cheng Xiaoshi is used to loving with open arms and an open heart. In every timeline, he’s unused to being loved back.

    Summary

    Lu Guang had chosen to live for Cheng Xiaoshi a long time ago. It was the first time he’d seen him die. Maybe even before that. If you think about it too long, living for someone else's sake is a pretty foolish thing to do, but it's a little more complicated than that. Living for someone else is both a selfish and selfless act. Selfless in that you put the safety and wellbeing of that other person above your own. Selfish in the fact that you can’t live without them.

    Just a little something to feed my Shiguang obsession.

    Summary

    They tried to outrun the raindrops, but it was impossible. And once they were about halfway home, it became abundantly clear that it didn’t matter— they were already soaked to the bone. Lu Guang’s clothes clung tightly to his frame and Cheng Xiaoshi’s hair hung limp around his cheeks and jaw, dripping. And so Lu Guang slowed from a sprint to a jog, and then to a walk, and then a complete stop, his hand in Cheng Xiaoshi’s slowing him, too. Cheng Xiaoshi doesn’t seem the least bit put out as he comes to a complete standstill with Lu Guang in the middle of a now abandoned street, turning to face him as the rain cascaded down around them and blanketed all other sounds.

    That bubble that had found them on the basketball court is back, surrounding them as they try and catch their breath, their hands still locked as they stand toe to toe, staring at each other.

    The love that Lu Guang feels for Cheng Xiaoshi in that moment is so overwhelming, it nearly knocks him straight off his feet.

    Summary

    It proved that yes, Lu Guang could feel what all the books described as a crush.
    He'd thought they were exaggerating. They were, in fact, not. No, nope, they were really pulling their punches.
    Lu Guang had gone weak in the knees, seeing the other for the first time, and oh... wasn't that a big problem?

    Or: Lu Guang, in the first timeline, was a yearning simp

    Summary

    The redhead assassin wasn't just a threat because of his gun. He was a threat because he trespassed in an omega’s territory and started destroying Cheng Xiaoshi’s extended nest — the Photo Studio.

    Despite being alphas, even Qiao Ling and Lu Guang tried not to disturb anything without his permission.

    And then there was this man.

    Did owning a gun make him think he was hot shit? That the unspoken laws that governed all omegas and alphas wouldn't apply if he came armed?

    Canon-Divergent. Vein breaks into the Time Photography Studio to 'punish' Lu Guang, but fate (or biology) throws a wrench in his plans.

    VeinShi with endgame Vein/Cheng Xiaoshi/Lu Guang. Mpreg (CXS) in later chapters.

    Summary

    “Let’s say, hypothetically speaking, if I wanted to make sure his dog wasn’t alone, you know, before she passed… would that be okay?”

    Without the client’s knowledge, and with Lu Guang’s permission, Cheng Xiaoshi dives in a photo to be with the client's dog when it passes away.

    Summary

    Cheng Xiaoshi wraps his arms around Lu Guang, like he's somehow sensed the other's panic.

    Perhaps he's somehow always known that Lu Guang was a haunted man, and Cheng Xiaoshi was his curse, his undoing, his reason. He digs his nails deeper into the bare of Lu Guang's back.

    Leaves a trail of tiny crescent moons blooming red on it.

    Leaves a mark, a memento, a new memory that’s saying, may you never forget me.

     

    Or Cheng Xiaoshi keeps dying, Lu Guang keeps going back.

    Summary

    “Landlady, save me!” Xiaoshi cries loudly, ducking behind her.

    Qiao Ling frowns at his antics, usually Cheng Xiaoshi is cowering behind Lu Guang for his partner to save Cheng Xiaoshi from her. “Cheng Xiaoshi…” she trails off when she then sees Lu Guang, flustered and wearing a peeved expression, as he approaches them. “Cheng Xiaoshi, are you teasing Lu Guang again? Only you can actually dig under his skin to make him have such a visceral reaction of rage,” she chides her childhood friend.

    Xiaoshi shakes his head at her. “He’s being the bully!”

    “Cheng Xiaoshi,” Lu Guang huffs at him. “You need rest.”

    ~~~

    Even if Xiaoshi was distant in this timeline, he was still good. Lu Guang didn’t think that would ever change, which wasn’t a bad thing. Lu Guang would just be the bad thing this time around to make sure that Xiaoshi remained good and most importantly: alive.

    Summary

    “No,” Lu Guang murmurs. He stares at his hands, and all he sees when he closes his eyes is his palms covered in blood. Cheng Xiaoshi’s slick fingers weakly gripping his own. In this timeline, there is no blood. Nothing has happened that should, and everything has happened that shouldn’t. “It isn’t that,” he finishes.

    Silence. An inhale. “Isn’t it?” Cheng Xiaoshi asks. A moment passes. “I told you I loved you, and I’ve never seen you look so sad.”

    Summary

    Morning finds Cheng Xiaoshi sitting on the edge of his bed, bare feet planted on the ground and elbows on his knees. The dim sunlight that peeks through their blinds kisses the crown of his head with its cold glow. They had not been able to afford blackout curtains when first furnishing, and neither of them had pushed. It’s fine, Lu Guang had said when Cheng Xiaoshi sheepishly brought it up, I don’t mind.

    Cheng Xiaoshi does not like the dark. Lu Guang thinks that he could not love him more.

    One day of the weekend, abbreviated.

    Summary

    “Lu Guang! Over here!”

    The loud music booms from inside. Colorful lights cast a shadow over the silhouette, but Lu Guang doesn’t even need to see his face to recognize him. The outline of Cheng Xiaoshi’s pointed tall figure is too familiar. It only takes a few seconds for Lu Guang’s pupils to adjust to the sudden surge of brightness. And then,

    Their eyes met.

    ***
    Lu Guang fell in love with Cheng Xiaoshi back in college. He'd been keeping it a secret for years now, his mind spiraling with all kinds of thoughts about his best friend. An open bar at a college reunion risks everything.

    Summary

    Lu Guang has always felt somehow empty and he was okay with that. After all, he has never known anything else, so, he had made peace with it a long time ago. Until one evening. Until he cut through the basketball court for a shortcut. Until a ball hit his shoe. Until he met someone.

    Summary

    Sharing a bedroom with Cheng Xiaoshi, who has his own share of demons to wrestle with at night, complicates the matter further. It wouldn't be an issue to suffer through insomnia alone, because coffee and little catnaps on the couch during the day make up for it. But Cheng Xiaoshi, never one to leave Lu Guang alone, turns insomnia into a group activity.
