    Summary

    “I’m not going to break him,” says Wei Ying, his voice quieter. Jiang Cheng, looking down at the baby, frowns.

    “We agreed – you’re here to carry bags. If you want something more – if you want something more, then tough. Babies come with a lot of cra – stuff, and someone’s gotta carry it.”

    “You can swear, Jiang Cheng. He’s three months old, he’s not going to internalize it.”

    “I’m not fudging up this child,” hisses Jiang Cheng.

    Summary

    There was another student here.

    Tom recognized him vaguely—while transfer students were not necessarily uncommon due to the war, they were rare enough to at least make an impression. This particular transfer student was in his year, sorted into Ravenclaw after an impressively long hat stall. He looked like he might be descended from the Potter line, but he did not share the surname so his lineage was of no particular interest to Tom. Nothing about him was of particular interest to Tom, in fact, and yet here he stood, holding the book that Tom had come here to find.

    It would be a good time to turn away. The Restricted Section was restricted for a reason—only books documenting extremely dangerous or extremely advanced magic were stored here.

    Tom’s feet, however, suddenly felt as if they were made of lead. It wasn’t magic keeping him tied down, but something far more mysterious like curiosity or even fate. In any case, the delay was all it took for the Ravenclaw to lift his chin and meet Tom’s eyes.

    This Ravenclaw, Tom realized, had eyes as blindingly green as the Killing Curse.

    Summary

    It could have been worse.

    Yeah, it could have been worse. In the way that falling into a frying pan was technically better than falling into the flames underneath. There were surely worse realities to transmigrate into than this one. Like, he wasn’t a slave.

    ...Because slaves were human.

    He was a fish.

    Well. ‘Domesticated Mer’.

    A pet. Sentient, yet ownable. A status symbol.

    What was that? Slaves were considered less than human too?

    Aish! This wasn’t the time for splitting hairs! This was the time for internally wailing, lamenting, and raging at the shitty heavens!

    ----


    Shang Qinghua thought it was bad enough when he transmigrated into the life of someone’s pet, but then he found himself crammed into a cargo hold as a gift for a noble overseas. When the ocean turned treacherous and the crew turned their hungry eyes on him, he never expected what happened next, nor how meeting a wild mer would flip his new life upside down.
