    I've never seen writing quite like this on here. You write with the shape of queer grief in every word, with all of life in the breath between lines. That was truly a fantastic read and I will have trouble moving on. Thank you.

    Summary

    Xie Lian drinks deeper. He isn’t usually so morose, but the feeling has been niggling him ever since that day out in the fields planting crops, when Hua Cheng had so casually muttered, Oh, I have a wife at home. Until then, the possibility hadn’t even crossed Xie Lian’s mind; he’d been so caught up with the idea that he’d finally found someone worth hanging on to, an immortal and apparent lone wolf like himself—someone whom he might become important to, as they’d swiftly become rather dear to him. What a blessing, he’d once thought. How fortunate. Then he’d just felt foolish.

    Summary

    “My name is Xie Lian.”

    He Xuan’s eyes widened so far they looked like they would pop out of their sockets. Though his expression quickly changed, growing darker and morphing into a look of pure terror.

    He Xuan whispered, “Fuck…”

    When Xie Lian washes up in Black Water Sinking Ship's domain, instead of being boiled and eaten alive, he makes a new friend who tells him all about the four calamities. And he finds the story of Crimson Rain Sought Flower particularly interesting.

    Summary

    Set after the Merlin Series 5 Finale "Diamond of the Day".
    Canon Compliant. In Character. Arthur Pendragon Returns.
    Cover art by Lao-Pendragon

    ------

    For many long years Merlin waited.

    For the other part of his soul, for the other half of his life. He was born to serve Arthur. So that meant he was also born to wait. Even if it took a thousand years. Even if the wait seemed never to end.

    Until one day, suddenly, it did.

    When Arthur stumbles from the Lake of Avalon 1,500 years after his death, he finds a world unlike the one he knew. Faced with the loss of everyone he loved, and the threat of impending prophecy, Arthur must learn what it means to be not just a king, but the Once and Future King. Merlin does all he can to guide him, even as he struggles to hide his love for his king, and his fear of losing him again.

    Story includes sass, banter, horseplay, & True Love.
