    Summary

    During the seven months since the attack on Blissful Retreat, Yi Dao had been a true friend - Steadfast, caring, even kind, though the man would never admit it. Nero should feel grateful, he should see the Blade's companionship like aunt Han's protection, or uncle Jiang's instruction, but instead...

    An annoying, persistent feeling had slipped under his skin. It flared like a fever whenever the older man stepped too close, whenever he looked his way, whenever he called him that stupid nickname.

    He would just need to push through it, however. There was no way the man felt the same way.

    Right?

    Summary

    The burnt-blade smell of steel and amber jade ignites like paper, its potency strong enough to burn down into your lungs, joints of your dominant hand screaming in agony. You lift your blade high enough, locked into a standstill with your opponent's copper eyes glaring into yours.

    "What truth do you see?"

    ------

    A slightly different interpretation of Tian Ying's ending with young watermelon/young master. May follow canon, but with some caveats.

    Summary

    Luo Binghe develops a gap in his memory, one that is shaped specifically like Shen Qingqiu.


    “Binghe, speak to this master,” Shen Qingqiu says firmly, and Luo Binghe gives him a strange look. Shen Qingqiu can’t place it and he leans forward, intending to get closer to see better. But the hand around his wrist instantly tightens to the point where it hurts, and Shen Qingqiu lets out a squawk of pain.

    “Binghe—!”

    “Why do you keep calling me like that?” Luo Binghe returns, and Shen Qingqiu’s eyes widen at the way the words are devoid of any emotion. It is nothing though, compared to the force of what Luo Binghe says next. “Who are you?”

    Summary

    YOU - You’re vastly overthinking this. No one cares about badge photos or puts any thought into them. You stand against a wall and a bored clerk tells you to hold still and don’t make that face, and you get it a week later. This doesn’t matter to anyone. Except you.

    CONCEPTUALIZATION - Because it’s taken on Significance in your mind. Now it's a symbol of all you've lost.

    ELECTROCHEMISTRY - And it's not a bored clerk taking your picture. It's Kim.

    Summary

    The faint scent of cigarette smoke drifts through the broken window, and you step over to gaze out across the nightscape of Martinaise. The dim street lamps flicker erratically as a stumbling figure makes their way towards the docks. Another gust of frigid wind carries more smoke through your window—someone standing beneath the balcony just outside of the winter entrance, having an evening cigarette.

    The scent reminds you of him.

    *Him*?

    The Smoker on the Balcony. Who else?

    You know who else.

    ---

    In which an amnesiac cop wanders back to the apartment complex north of the Whirling-in-Rags in search of a nameless something.
