    Summary

    It was bad enough that the mystery novel Shen Yuan had been reading upon his death featured a terrible love triangle, but now here he is, playing one of the leads. On one side there is Yue Qingyuan, Advisor to the Magistrate, peerless and kind. On the other there is Shen Qingqiu, a lawyer of the county and probably one the most jealous and vindictive men to ever be written.

    And Shen Yuan? The Magistrate at the center.

    Between a mysterious curse and trying not to get stabbed in the night, Shen Yuan must use his wits to survive this stupid novel. If he fails, who knows just how Shen Qingqiu will manage to kill him for "stealing his man"?

    ---

    (A YuanJiu slow burn romance/mystery inspired by the drama "Love is More Than a Word" and "The Hound of the Baskervilles" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.)

    Summary

    “I’ve spent a whole year on my heel turn and I’m damn good at it,” Wei Ying said. “Now you want me to turn face? You must be joking. Besides, what is the Ghost General supposed to do? Third wheel my dates? Watch while I hold hands with Lan Zhan and skip into the sunset?”

    “No, you’re going to stay a heel. But you’re going to focus all your attention on Hanguang Jun. Try and seduce him over to your side.”

    Wei Ying felt the word seduce rattle around him like the echo of a bell. Seduce Hanguang Jun? He wouldn’t dare.

    But Lan Zhan seems oddly invested in this romance storyline. His acting is far too believable. But it’s only pretend, right?

    Summary

    Or, "Untitled Mating Fic: Finally Edited and Still Rather Embarrassing for Everyone Involved."

    Charles is an omega who's accustomed to spending heats alone, sweating it out and ignoring his biology. But after meeting Erik and being more-or-less confined to the CIA compound, he finds himself unable to resist the lure of giving in to his hormones.

    So, the mating thing happens in detail, and that's pretty much the fic. As warning: this is pretty sketchily consensual, in the way many breeding fics can be, but somehow seems EXTRA so by the end of the story. Please be careful of any triggers, as far as that goes.

    Summary

    “Who are you?” Luo Binghe asked coldly.

    Shen Yuan wanted to bury himself in the dirt. He couldn’t have made a bigger fool of himself.

    “I- This one is Shen Yuan, Lord Luo,” he hastily responded, dropping into a low bow to properly greet the emperor. Even after seven years in the palace, Shen Yuan still struggled with the formal speech of scholars and nobility.

    “Shen…” Luo Binghe whispered.

    Shen Yuan winced. Of course, Luo Binghe wouldn’t know who he was by name alone.

    “This one is Lord Luo’s fifth husband,” Shen Yuan answered.

    Or, Shen Yuan wants life to feel like an adventure, Luo Bingge wants someone to truly love him, and a magical road-trip will somehow solve both of their problems

    PHYSICS 101

    Rating: 2.0 | Would take again: No | Grade: B+

    Unless you want to spend the semester learning about Professor Wei’s highly specific feud with another professor that I still don’t understand the origin of, take a different professor!

    PHYSICS 263

    Rating: 2.5 | Would take again: No | Grade: C

    If you take this class, hope and pray that Wei Wuxian never stops by during lecture. He came in once just to ask Professor Lan if he’d removed the stick up his ass yet, and as soon as he left Prof Lan gave us all a pop quiz. EVIL.

    Summary

    Modern Cultivators AU.

    Lan Wangji finds Wei Wuxian pajamas to wear and coaxes him into them, wide plaid pants in dark blue and white and a t-shirt with two rabbits on it. Wei Wuxian looks down on the shirt and smiles for the first time all evening.

    "Lan Zhan, do all your pajamas have rabbits on them?"

    Lan Wangji thinks about lying, but it would be foolish when Wei Wuxian is standing right next to the proof. He inclines his head slightly.

    "I like rabbits," he says.

    Wei Wuxian blinks and then he smiles a little wider.

    “He’s so beautiful,” Lan Zhan says, tongue loosened by the weed. Besides, Mianmian’s room is his safe space. He can say what he likes here, so he does. “I want to know what his mouth tastes like. I want him to put his mouth on my—”

    “No, no, no, no,” Jin Zixuan says, making an X with his arms. “For the love of Christ, keep it PG-13, please.”

    In which Lan Zhan gets high, slides into Wei Ying's DMs, and somehow ends up having the harmonica played to him at 2am in the morning.

    Summary

    Nie Huaisang knows that things in this world are rarely story-shaped. That they're more akin to ink spilled on parchment - Messy and unpredictable and rather tragic. But out of all the threads he's woven throughout damn near a decade, he had not expected the most straightforward of his ploys to go this awry.

    He had not expected Wei-Xiong to end up here in Qinghe, half-drunk and too thin with no Lan Wangji in sight. Because it turns out that on his way to becoming the Chief Cultivator, the great Hanguang-Jun had left Wei-Xiong on the side of the road to walk alone in a world that most probably still wants him dead.

    What else could Huaisang have done other than bring Wei-Xiong home with him?

    “Alright alright!” shouts an energetic voice from behind him.

    Lan Zhan turns to see a young man in a ball cap, a black t-shirt and straight-cut blue jeans hurrying down the dock. He’s long and lanky, and his eyes under the brim of his hat are bright. His skin is tanned but his features are fine, smooth, his mouth generous. He’s got a clipboard in his hand. “Lan Zhan, is that right?”

    His name rolls perfectly off this man’s tongue, smooth as if it were in Mandarin. He nods. “Cool. I’m Wei Ying – I’m your pilot and guide for this trip.”

    Summary

    In order to pay off a debt that's not his, Shang Qinghua agrees to marry a man that's as cold and unyielding as he is stupidly rich.

    “Marriage?” His voice breaks over the word like it’s a curse. “Really? Doesn’t it feel a bit irrational?”

    “Are you planning to pay off an eight-figure debt with this job and a host job?” Mobei Jun asks, and Shang Qinghua almost wants to throttle him. Though, if his wallet didn’t have a direct funnel to his dad’s bank account, Shang Qinghua might actually have been a little comfortable.

    “That’s not what I meant!” Shang Qinghua huffs, his head still spinning. As far as being a married man goes, Shang Qinghua is nowhere near ready.

    “What?” Mobei Jun raises a single eyebrow. “Were you looking to marry for love?”
