beyond this rage of poetry by xtwilightzx (blackidyll)

Summary
Hugo’s resentment at Lycaon’s decision to leave Mockingbird, his hatred towards his father, the fear as he sat at Lycaon’s side, waiting – for either help to come, or for Lycaon’s heartbeat to fade away – all of that has been smothered by sheer exhaustion, leaving Hugo numb and empty.
Without his emotions getting in the way, Hugo’s thoughts are startlingly clear.
Betrayals and abandonment, secrets and broken promises – none of those matter. All that matters is Lycaon, and who he is to Hugo.
His dearest partner, now turned his greatest traitor.
And yet—
—still his, always.
(Their confrontation after the failed assasination attempt on the Ravenlock family head is not the last time Hugo sees Lycaon; before they go their separate ways, Hugo makes several arrangements that, years later, will influence his reunion with Lycaon and set the stage for future collaborations.
Missing scenes from Hugo and Lycaon's past and present, on their separation and eventual reconciliation. Contains major spoilers for Bury Your Tears With The Past Part A and B).

Summary
Tartaglia feels it like a subtle chime in the air, calling out to him, and turns in its direction before he can stop himself.
Although most who Arlecchino associates with end up fumbling in her wake, dominated by her presence, the man she is dancing with neither seems harried nor impressed. The man’s movements as he leads the dance are graceful and precise, and although he and Arlecchino match each other perfectly, never falling out of step, it is clear that he is the one in control of the dance.
The music finally comes to an end. Rather than the usual courtly bow or kiss on the back of her hand, the man simply gives Arlecchino a nod of acknowledgment. Then he turns, amber eyes unerringly catching Childe’s gaze.
—and it is Childe now, because he’s Childe whenever he’s with Zhongli, and Childe knows those eyes—
(it’s been nearly two years since the Rite of Parting and the last time Tartaglia was able to set foot in Liyue. At the Tsaritsa’s biennial masquerade ball, Tartaglia crosses paths with an unexpected guest, and all sorts of long buried sentiment for
ZhongliWangsheng’s consultantLiyue’s archonthis being standing before him comes roaring to the forefront).Bookmarked by Shenluen

Summary
"Mydeimos is hiding something," Ptolemy says, with the determinedness of a commander as his friends are still holding their belongings.
"Good afternoon, Ptolemy. Oh, my day went great, Ptolemy." Perdikkas drops his laptop and notes onto the table across from Ptolemy, his eyebags prominent against his pale skin. He does not bring coffee to the library, but they're sure he's running on his third cup of the day, like every other medical student.
Mydei is in a not-so-secret relationship. His friends (attempt to) find out who it is.

Summary
In no universe should he have to witness Mydei’s hand linger on Phainon’s shoulder for a moment longer than what two friends consider proper, and then watch as Mydei flexes his hand right afterwards, clearly so affected by it. Like something straight out of March’s romance novels.
Seriously, Phainon’s eyes had softened when he looked at Mydei. Multiple times. In public! And here Caelus thought eyes could only soften in Jing Yuan fanfiction.
Dan Heng gives him a look. “Phainon and Mydei are good friends. They’re bound to bicker every once in a while.”
Caelus sits up, wholly indignant. “Have you seen them,” he demands.
In which Caelus meddles.
