    4.5/10 Very well written, though emotionally angsty/heavy throughout so had to be in the right mood to read. Really feels true to the characters of the first life's timeline.

    Summary

    Every warlock has a soulmate. 98% of the time it’s another warlock, but sometimes it’s a mundane, a seelie, or even a Shadowhunter. Until their name appears on the warlock’s chest (and their corresponding soulmate’s), there’s no way to know.

    Enter Alec Lightwood, who wakes up at fourteen with a warlock’s name on his chest. Horrified at what it means, he keeps it hidden. But five years later, Magnus Bane is captured by a team of Shadowhunters, and it’s only a matter of time before someone sees Alec’s name on his chest.

    5/5 Have read twice (on second read felt like a 4.75; practically perfect just didn’t grab me obsessively).

    Summary

    Hermione Granger is 27 years old when her life falls apart. Cheated-on, flatless, fed up with her job, she decides to change one thing she can--take a class and try for some career advancement. But change is never easy, especially when an old enemy is the catalyst.

    And the class instructor.

    "Just as the minute hand clicked over to the hour, the doorknob twisted and a figure slipped into the room. He was tall, a bit windblown. Hermione had a general impression of crisp cuffs and polished leather, and then a more specific one of the most beautiful grey coat—highlighting his shoulders and eyes, skimming to just the right place on his knife creased trousers.
    His movements were precise and confident.
    He was wearing the softest-looking gloves.

    He was not Professor Belinda Rowle.
    He was Draco bloody Malfoy."

    Summary

    When Gao Tu gasps, opening his mouth wider, Wenlang takes the opportunity to push his thumb into Gao Tu's mouth, to touch the soft wet of his tongue.

    Gao Tu stares at him, wide-eyed.

    "You don't want this?"

    Or, what if in ep. 9 Wenlang was quicker to go after Gao Tu and knows it's him from the start?

    Summary

    He couldn’t scrub the feeling off, no matter how hard he tried. Sleep came slow, and when it did, it brought too much with it—memories, wishes, things that felt almost real.

    At first, he ran from the dreams. Then he started chasing them. A voice. A touch. A life that never happened, but felt like it had.

    The days grew quiet. The nights louder.
    And he stopped trying to come back.
