    Summary

    “How long has it been since we last danced, my love?” Oruggio says in invitation, offering him a hand. Again, Qifrey can’t help but stare, thinking that Oruggio could easily dim any star in the universe with his dazzling presence.

    “Oh, Oru…” Qifrey breathes, feeling warm all over as he accepts the outstretched hand of his beloved. “It’s been ages.”

    (or; Oruggio has prepared a little surprise for his husband)

    Summary

    “Olly,” his voice was gentle and a bit of him rioted at the sense of calm that graced his nerves at the sound. “I cannot say—”

    “And why not?”

    “Yet! I cannot say yet. But I will as soon as I am able.” He reached out and tugged Olruggio’s sleeve, like he had when they were children. Olruggio stopped, staring at the wall. “Please trust me, old friend.”

    ---

    After Coco arrives at the atelier, Olruggio decides to let Qifrey know just what he thinks of the situation.

    Summary

    Qifrey’s mind, all of a sudden, is overridden with thoughts of Olruggio bundled up in a heavy cape and gloves, snowflakes melting on his rosy cheeks and catching in his long lashes. It stirs in his stomach, the thought of Olruggio laughing, pink due in equal parts to the giddiness and the cold.

    Qifrey lasts a grand total of two days before he decides that he has to do something about it.

    Summary

    Oruggio doesn’t have a care in the world. Qifrey’s hand is keeping him close, firm against his back, and their students are having fun. The pale afternoon sun has favoured the celebrations, yet the air is crisp and humid and it smells like pastries and caramelised fruit. “It’s such a wonderful day, isn’t it?” He comments casually, rubbing at the witch’s nape again.

    Qifrey chuckles and takes a breath, wearing a bright look on his face. He tilts his head down so their noses almost touch. “You’re just as wonderful,” he whispers.

    Summary

    Agott was in love with her best friend, and she needed a plan.

    A plan on how to keep living with her feelings, but without acting sappy or gross or overly affectionate. A plan that would let her appreciate Coco’s kindness without making it painfully obvious that she liked her. A plan that wouldn’t end in a straight-up romantic confession on her part.

    You couldn’t just tell your best friend you liked them. Everyone knew that.


    Sixteen-year-old Agott devises a system for dealing with a crush. It goes about as well as one might expect.

    Summary

    “There’s something out there,” she says, turning to Olruggio and pointing.

    Riche peers over Coco’s shoulder towards where she is indicating. “Someone.”

    Thunder strikes just then. Tethia feels a shiver run down her spine and concedes that she can’t stand to stay out of the wind and the rain any longer if it means only catching glimpses of what is going on outside. “Jeez, stop saying scary things!” she scolds as she runs to join the rest.

    “No, but there really is someone out there.”

    And—well. Peering outside, there indeed seems to be.

    -

    A thunderstorm hits, Qifrey isn't home for lunch, and the girls assume the worst.

    Now, what does that little eye of yours see, my dear ‘_________’?”

    Or, after losing yet another lead and almost drowning, not even the snugstone is enough to help Qifrey sleep better. Luckily, Olruggio is.

    Summary

    Qifrey steps to rest Olruggio on the mattress, yet a sudden phantom pains through his body. A voice murmurs in his ears, thick with dripping poison. He loses balance and almost drops the other alongside himself, if not for Coco and Riche’s support.

    “Professor, we’ll take it from here,” Riche says.

    “Yeah, in the meantime, you should go get some rest yourself,” Coco chirps. “But don’t forget to eat first, though! Rest assured, we’ll take care of Professor Olruggio as you sleep.”

    Summary

    One by one the moments when the girls realized that Master Qifrey and Olruggio were in love. Plus one moment where someone knew their love was not meant to be.
    (also analyzes Qifrey and Olruggio's parental relationship with the girls)

    Unlike all the other apprentices, Riché had immediately assumed that Master Qifrey and Master Olruggio were married. For her, it was a far greater shock to learn that they were not.

    Summary

    The world outside has so much to offer. Coco has been to many places she’d never even dreamed of visiting prior to joining Qifrey’s atelier, seen sights just this morning that have already redefined beauty in her eyes, all before midday came to pass. But still, she thinks quietly, fiercely: nothing will ever compare to the familiar landscape of home.

    Coco and Qifrey and a quiet morning together, seeing the world as it wakes.

    Summary

    Sudden awareness crashed over him and Liu Qingge froze in his tracks. Carefully, without looking, he lowered his extended leg, shudders running through his body. Why was he on all fours? What kind of immersive dream had left him believing that he was feline even upon waking? It was ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. He would stand up, return back to where he had camped down, collect his bag and finish flying back to Cang Qiong. In just a moment. He just needed a moment to reorient himself. Just a moment.
    A bird exploded out of the tall grasses nearby. Startled, Liu Qingge leapt into the air, a yowl tearing its way from his throat. He landed on all fours, claws extended and fangs bared, the fur down his spine standing on end. He could see his front paws now, the grey striped fur of his forelegs. Denial was impossible in the face of such evidence. Somehow, as he slept, Liu Qingge had been transformed into a cat.

    Summary

    HUGE SPOILER WARNING FOR CHAPTER 88

     

    i had to write something about coco and qifrey's conversation the night they get back to the atelier. naturally, it's likely canon will change much of this moving forward, but as of posting it's something i have been thinking about a great deal.

    consider it a kind of vent art (that I wrote in bed at 1:30AM)

    Summary

    “Mu-shidi,” Yue Qingyuan speaks up, taking his seat at the head of the table. “Have you heard of this curse?”

    “I’m afraid not,” Mu Qingfang says, shaking his head. “A curse of compulsion, with dire consequences for disobedience… I’ve heard of many similar things, but not exactly this.”

    “For all we know, the perpetrator invented this little trap just for us,” Shen Qinqiu says, tapping his fan dangerously. “Tailormade to ruin us.”

    “I have no secrets to hide,” Liu Qingge says, and lifts his chin challengingly at Shen Qingqiu, who bristles in return. “Do you?”

    “Ah, Liu-shidi, if you don’t have any secrets then you should get some real quick!” Shang Qinghua says with bright, manic cheer, his smile and his eyes a little too wide. “The consequences for not meeting the curse’s requirements would be very very bad!”

    -

    The Peak Lords of Cang Qiong Mountain Sect are stricken with a curse that forces them to reveal a secret, and they all must submit to this curse or suffer the consequences...

    Yue Qingyuan wishes he were anywhere but here.

    Summary

    An unpublished (unpublishable) handbook by Lord Beldaruit, the Wise in Learning, and Olruggio of the Torch.

    Perhaps it isn't the most mature way to deal with the letters, but it sure is the most satisfying.
