    Summary

    He seems so… oddly normal like this. A man instead of a god. Sunlight descends on his form, caressing his skin and wrapping around his limbs. He’s bathed in shades of gold and orange, fiery, warm, and brilliant. Honeyed light finds a home in every part of him, from his crown to fingertips until he’s haloed by golden rays.

    (or: every first week of the month feng xin and his deputies train. every first week of the month, mu qing watches.)

    Summary

    Ishigami Senkū is simply trying to graduate, and bar the 'accidental mishaps' he's prone to having in the lab, he's well on his way to doing just that. That was until a ridiculously well-dressed mentalist decided they were meant for each other.

    "You don't like tricks?"

    "On the contrary, I'm actually quite partial to them."

    The mentalist narrows his eyes, still smiling. "You like figuring them out."

    Summary

    “So you’ve been in love?”

    “Of course not.” Gen grins, razor sharp. “It wouldn’t suit someone like me.”

    Senku stares at him, and once again, Gen finds it difficult to read him. What could he possibly be searching for? Gen’s poker face is flawless. It’ll take more than a little heartache to unravel him. It’ll take more than the likes of Ishigami Senku.

    Senku enlists Gen's help in writing his wedding vows. It's nothing a mentalist can't handle.

    Summary

    The world is beautiful, Gen thinks to himself. He doesn’t appreciate it often enough. He rarely has the chance to. If Senku brought him up here just to share this sight, Gen owes him a reaction. So, aloud this time, Gen says, “It’s beautiful.”

    Senku’s arm falls away from Gen’s waist, but he doesn’t back away. “Right?” he says. He isn’t looking at the view.

    Senku's been dropping hints. Gen's a sorry excuse for a mentalist for not picking up on them.

    Summary

    "Hello, everyone," The man walked to the front of the classroom and placed the same papers he'd been scribbling furiously on to the top wood polish of the front desk, "As you may have guessed, I'm not Professor Waiman. He had something to attend to today."

    Wait- The university Gen attended was a small prestigious school in Texas. There were only so many Asian students, and he was sure he met all of them.

    And then the floor was ripped out from under him.

    ---

    In which Gen just wants to graduate college, and a certain red-eyed lab assistant is making it ten billion times harder.

    Summary

    “I’m dying,” Senkuu said in the same tone he used for minor inconveniences.
     
    Or, in other words, Senkuu gets a fun new experiment by way of contracting lethal Hanahaki Disease and somehow Gen’s still the one who suffers.

    Summary

    the sweet oblivion of the victim, the poisoned freedom of the witch.

    for one moment - it had felt like two parts returned - the needed reunion of two disparate halves. no more secrets, no more pain.

    the moment you get to give back what you never wanted to take. that moment, under the night-blooming flowers, when they had both let out the same single broken sigh of relief.

    but they were never whole to begin with, were they?

    qifrey swore he wouldn't say 'sorry' to this man any more if he could help it - sorry is cheap now. he didn't want to be in a position ever again where you only have 'sorry' left. so he just looks down into the threads of his blanket, strains his eye until it hurts, feeling his insides - his throat, heart and head - burn with pain. he expects more, but olly says nothing.

    olly says nothing.

    When Odette Endlich woke up that morning, the last thing she expected to happen was get herself arrested.

    She was not expecting to get adopted either.

    Summary

    "You mean…" The wicked grin of insurance fraud stretched Wolfwood's lips around the cigarette. "There might be a way for you to finally get some well-deserved cash back outta those Bernadelli bastards, and for me to resolve my current predicament without havin' to sell a kidney or two?"
    "Entirely mutually beneficial." Vash smiled angelically. "And really, I think Bernardelli will still turn a profit on me. It's very pricey insurance."
    "Ya should really cancel that package."
    "And make Milly cry!?" Vash gasped dramatically. "Oh, you monster."

     

    Or: a story about contracts (of insurance and of marriage), about jokes (that are perhaps not funny at all), and - of course - about love.

    Summary

    After the Ravuses caught him, Therion went to seven separate witches. All have told him the same thing: the only cure to death by a slow, agonizing curse is true love’s kiss.

    Well, Therion thinks, if I’m going down, I’m going down swinging.

    Summary

    “Through the window that overlooks the modest lawn of our farm-house, I can see Sherlock Holmes strolling among his beehives. His hair is quite white, but his long, thin form is as wiry and energetic as ever, and there is a touch of healthy colour in his cheeks, placed there by Mother Nature and her clover-laden breezes that carry the scent of the sea amid these gentle Sussex Downs. Our lives are drawing towards eventide.”

    Summary

    No one in their right mind would ever seriously try to woo Lin Ronghu, the Emperor's infamously ruthless (if unofficial) spymaster.

    Not that that's stopped the local legend, a (self-described) beautiful detective with peerless martial arts. His crush is a major inconvenience - at least until there's a murder that puts Lin Ronghu's most hated political nemesis straight in the frame. Since Lin Ronghu can't believe that anyone would be that stupid, he decides that maybe having a private detective around might be good for something after all...

    Steel hissed as Martin drew his sword.

    “Oh, you don’t need that.” Stepping forward, Le Chasseur pushed the blade aside with a fastidious finger. “We’re old friends, you and I. Friends don’t need to resort to threats to make themselves heard.”

    Summary

    As he rounds the corner to the front of Puji Shrine, he's taken aback to see Nan Feng standing outside the shrine's open door with his sword drawn. "Nan Feng?" he calls, and Nan Feng jumps.

    "Oh!" he says, recognizing Xie Lian. "There you are! Your highness, you shouldn't enter — there's a demon inside!"

    Xie Lian frowns at him. "I'm aware," he says. "He stayed the night."

    --

    Xie Lian and Hua Cheng talk things out a little.

    Summary

    In the months following his short tenure at Flamechurch, Crick Wellsley enjoys his new life in the port city of Canalbrine. But when a certain cleric arrives in town, still searching for answers, Crick finds himself realizing two things.

    One, Temenos was truly as doggedly persistent as his nickname from the Sacred Guard suggested. And two, he cared more for the Inquisitor than he previously thought.

    Summary

    Crick may have survived the attempt on his life, but his wounded trust in the Sacred Guard and world at large is not something so easily salved.

    But sometimes, the best medicine is having someone else to put your faith in.

    Summary

    With a careful hand, she slowly winds up the music box. But instead of familiar tune, what comes out were a few discordant notes and an awful twang with a few clicking noises.

    A harried looking Kanade bursts into the living room, eyes wide and frantic with one arm through a dark jacket and the other half of it trailing behind her before she sees Mafuyu and the music box.

    Mafuyu immediately sets the box aside and takes a step back as if that would minimize the damage. “Sorry, I just wanted to hear it. I didn’t know it was…” broken. That explained a lot.

    Kanade lets out a small exhale, relief written all over her face.

    Summary

    In another world, the gods stand just a little closer to mortals. The barrier between their world and ours is just a little thinner. Sometimes the changes that result are small. Sometimes, they are not. Mortals do not bear a god’s power lightly.
