    Summary

    There were several issues that Xiao immediately took with Ningguang’s proposition for him to produce for Barbatos: his other artists had upcoming comebacks and year-end stages that required his attention, he was overworked enough as it were already, and Ningguang was not exactly someone he was looking to do any favors for.

    While her persistence to overlook all this was one matter, nothing aggravated him more than Ningguang completely ignoring the obstinate fact that he. doesn’t. work. with. idols.

    And as far as Xiao was concerned, nothing was ever going to change that.

    But all that glitters is not gold, and stage lights shine brighter than stars. There’s a lot more to a person than what hides behind the faces that they wear. It takes strength to face off against the delusions in the name of values and beliefs, but it is a different type of strength that it takes to come to face with the truth.

    And as it turns out, the truth is that perhaps it wasn’t Barbatos who Xiao needed to confront so much as it was himself.

    Summary

    They parted ways to focus on their careers, once; so young and driven they were, back then.

    They promised each other they would still be friends, as they have been long before they were lovers.
    (They have not been in contact ever since.)

    Now, six years later and each faced with uncertainty at their own crossroads, Zhongli and Venti find themselves in an unplanned reunion—and they soon discover that they might just have needed it more than they expected.

    Summary

    To Xiao, Barbatos was the embodiment of everything he was not: happy, free, fully confident in who he was. His music made the shadows in Xiao’s head retreat. They were all about living life to the fullest, having hope when the world was turned against you, and having fun (something that was almost entirely foreign to Xiao).

    And now he was going to have to give away all his albums, delete Barbatos’ songs off his phone, and never listen to his music again. Just looking at the albums lined up on the shelf made Xiao cringe. He’d thought that if he ever did get a chance to meet his idol, it would be in a controlled space. He would have said something normal, like, Your music means a lot to me. Then he would’ve shaken Barbatos’ hand, gotten an autograph, and lived out the rest of his life in peace.

    Xiao’s idol had watched him punch a guy in the stomach.

    Since Zhongli's early retirement, Xiao's life has been aimless. But a chance encounter sets him on a new and uncharted path.

    Summary

    The world is in a constant cycle of restoration and destruction. We swirl into a mass, we explode into bits, we scatter apart, then we gather ourselves back up again. It's a constant cycle of folding and unfolding, tangling and untangling the strings of fate that hold us together.

    Summary

    Yuri stared at the flower, utterly paralyzed, ignoring Viktor’s scandalized, “Oh my!

    “What the fuck is this?” My eyes aren’t beautiful .

    Without wavering, Otabek continued to hold the flower out. “I call it a tulip. As well as an offer of friendship.”

    AU in which Viktor is a florist looking to start a family, Otabek is a flower vendor dreaming of home, and Yuri is an orphan wrapped in seven layers of teen angst that he can only get out by screaming profanities and shoving flowers in people's faces.

    Summary

    Kaneki and Sasaki are two lovers, people who keep breaking up and getting back together. Having apology sex again and again and again. Arima is so afraid of losing something he loves that he refuses to love at all. Though, he supposes that that isn’t quite correct. He dreads having to kill the things he loves. And he's only human after all.
    --
    Everyone is sad even though no one deserves to be. This is how I imagine Arima and Kaneki/Sasaki experience their grief.
