    Summary

    “I hear you’re cursed,” Poseidon says, and Odysseus is relieved that he didn’t have to be the one to start this conversation.

    “I am,” he supplies with a nod.

    “And what kind of curse did the titaness manage to wrap you up in?” He sounds bored. He probably is, but any good head of house would make sure his new prisoner isn’t spreading something that’s contagious.

    Odysseus steels himself. “It’s a punishment for avoiding sex,” he explains, miraculously concise.

    “What?” The room shakes.

    ---

    In which Polyphemus doesn't fall in front of the cave entrance, and thus Odysseus doesn't have to blind him. He never evokes Poseidon's ire.

    Odysseus still has the worst luck in all of ancient Greece, however, and winds up on Ogygia for six years anyway.

    So, when the king of Ithaca is injured falling through Charybdis' teeth, Poseidon has no reason not to assist. Zeus' gentle persuasion helps, too.

    Summary

    Ajax had a soulmate mark, just like about half the population of Teyvat did.
    If Ajax ever found his soulmate, he would pretend to be normal for them. He would observe from afar if possible, and make sure nothing happened to them. That no ailments ever came to them. That they never came to lack anything.
    That was the plan. Or, at least, it had been, until the Tsaritsa requested an audience with him alone and asked to see his mark.

    “Tartaglia,” she began, serious. “That is Morax, the Geo Archon.”

    -------------

    Or, Ajax is Morax' soulmate, the Tsaritsa ships him off to Liyue, and he has to pretend like he doesn't feel like he's not good enough for the Geo Archon.

    Summary

    Xie Lian’s heart is too big. Even if no one appreciates it. Even if he’ll take some things to the grave. Even if it means giving up everything he loves. He’ll do it for you.

    And he did.

    It left him with nothing and just as he was about to fall into darkness an angel appeared. If his angel has two horns and looks a bit more like the devil he never cared.

    Summary

    The story begins like this:

     

    There is a legend in Fontaine,

     

    That every time the sky does rain,

     

    It comes, not from wind, or cloud, or sky,

     

    But from the great Hydro Dragon, feeling sad enough to cry.

     

    Or,

    In which Freminet, somehow, keeps running into none other than the Chief Justice himself.

    Things all sort of begin to unravel from there.
