Summary
Newly ten years old, Jia Baoyu already knows that there’s very little he can do to change the world around him. That doesn’t mean he doesn’t wish things were different though. So when a venture with his Grandmother takes him into the fallen La Manchaland, Jia Baoyu decides to try and help someone, one last time.
Don Quixote of La Manchaland has spent the last two hundred years dwelling on all his failures, and has come to the only logical conclusion: That his nature as a bloodfiend prevents any manner of change, and that his dream had been nothing but a fantasy. With his family dead, he has resigned himself to the same fate; only to end up living with a small human child who still has a dream of his own.
Maybe they can both learn something from each other.
(Or: Jia Baoyu dreams, Jia Mu schemes, and Don Quixote relearns what it means to try.)

Summary
He hated it. Every second of it, how pathetic it made him feel. The vulgar, out-of-place proposition; the song-and-dance they've already been doing for months now. The way Gubo was always so gross about it: somehow too vague and startlingly direct simultaneously. The fact that even now, Jia Huan wanted to get up and knock on his door. Go to him.
Instead, he turned away. Curled in on himself; lost himself to a deep, sticky, restless dream that was sure to leave him exhausted in the morning. He was coming to terms with the fact that the circumstances he found himself in were not shaping up into a love story at all.Nelly notices the first inclincs of unrequited love between her two least pleasant coworkers and, in order to save everyone from certain doom, ropes Sonya, Ahab and Aseah into a conspiracy to force the two together. Thus begins a tale of troubles, tribulations and tropes.

Summary
When you went home from your godawful job, you simply asked for some peace and rest. Naturally, the universe didn't want this to happen and immediately sent you to the hell that is the city. And now you have to navigate your new life without having a mental breakdown every step of the way.
Or, you as a player get transported to the game and experience the life of being a sinner firsthand. Interesting things ensue.

Summary
He viewed the stars in the same way I viewed the ocean, infinitely big, unending, uncaring. I wondered if he’d ever thought about dying before, considering he lived like a dead-man, as I had a long time ago, and suddenly there was a part of me that found it rather unjust that there was no way for him to skim the edge of the stars as I’d skimmed the surface of the oceans; although, if we’d simply looked to the side to the waters instead of up at the stars, we’d have seen the stars reflected on its surface and known we had been swimming in them all along.
