    Summary

    The picturesque village of Buell, Maine is one of the last in the United States to continue the tradition of the “harvest” or “prosperity” lottery. Its residents insist the lottery makes them stronger, even as condemnation from outsiders grows.

    Summary

    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.

    OR: a tale told through rate my professors posts

    Summary

    Emperor Palpatine dies unexpectedly a year before the Death Star would be deemed operational. His heir apparent, Darth Vader, startles the galaxy by passing up the throne, and then passing it on to the newly-elected Senator of Alderaan, Leia Organa, after the Force leads him to directly to her. The new Empress inherits a terrorized galaxy, a broken Empire to tear down from the inside, and the weirdest second-in-command anyone can imagine.

    Or, Vader accidentally hands the galaxy to his rebel daughter, Bail Organa panics professionally, Leia attempts not to get assassinated, and Palpatine rolls in his grave.

    Summary

    “You are the most irritating, obnoxious man I have ever met,” is all Gepard manages to say.

    His head is pounding. He doesn’t have it in him to lecture Sampo or argue with him further. He just blurts out the words, realizing as they leave him they are the absolute truth. Sampo irritates him, annoys him, frustrates him, baffles him. He should stop letting him take any space at all in his mind.

    Yet here he is. Taunting him. Forcing Gepard to face him and every despicable thing he stands for. Forcing his way into his mind, his vision, making Gepard stare him down.

    And Sampo simply smiles ear to ear. “Thank you,” he says.

    Gepard steps closer to the cell door. “It wasn’t a compliment.”

    ---

    In Which Sampo is persistent in his pursuit of Gepard, while Gepard simply has no clue how to deal with him.

    Summary

    Wei Ying had been saying something. “I didn’t even like him! It’s just --”

    “His dick was so big, yes, you’ve said. Several times.” Lan Zhan’s voice was a little strained, probably because he was holding him up while they waited for the elevator in Wei Ying’s building.

    Summary

    Keith wanted just one more hit, one more high of having someone spoil him and shower him with money. One more, then he'd graduate college and get a real job.

    He never counted on falling in love.

    Summary

    Zuko is courting Katara, and with every passing day finds new and insane ways of showing that he would quite literally move the spirit world and earth to make her happy.

    In hindsight, it probably would've been better if Sokka had realised he was in love with Zuko at literally any time before this. Or preferably, never fallen for his best friend in the first place.

    Summary

    Mobei Jun may be a powerful demon lord, second-in-command only to his OP son, but why was he constantly finding himself dangerous scenarios? Why does a lowly peak lord have to be the one to keep bailing him out of trouble?! Please give this servant a break, my king!

    Or, all the times Shang Qinghua was promoted in Mobei Jun’s service.

    Summary

    "Wait, was he technically being proposed to twice in one day? And worst of all this guy was kinda, sorta doing a better job at it. In some people’s opinion, were you to ask, he thought. Probably."

    Shang Qinghua and Mobei Jun's relationship is ready to move onto the next stage, but suddenly someone new appears with an offer of his own.

    Summary

    It's been a while since Shang Qinghua has been able to properly touch his husband.


    “We can finish this later, my king,” Shang Qinghua says in a rushed whisper. He steps out of Mobei Jun’s grasp and starts to pet down his hair. Not that Mobei Jun could ever look unpresentable, but the action makes Shang Qinghua feel useful.

    “I will hold you to it,” Mobei Jun says, a tinge of annoyance in his voice. Shang Qinghua is about to retort, but the voices have grown even closer, so he focuses instead on making sure they both don’t look like they were making out a minute ago.

    His lips still tingle with the intensity of their kiss, but Shang Qinghua puts it to the back of his mind. He’ll get a chance again later, to quell whatever excitement Mobei Jun had stirred within him.

    (It turns out that later is a lot further away than Shang Qinghua anticipates.)

    Summary

    It was impossible for anyone to remember every little quirk of this setting. There were too many. Also, Shang Qinghua had come up with some of them on a whim while fueled by nothing but caffeine and noodles.

    It wasn't his fault for not remembering why oranges were never served on fruit festival day.

    Summary

    Everyone knows that mer creatures aren't real - they're just the tales of addled sailors, meant to come up with reasons to explain the strange things they see on the sea. Shen Qingqiu isn't superstitious and he isn't an idiot.

    Why would he believe in something he'd never seen before? He has a nice life, teaching children and bothering his best friend, dealing with the impossible Liu Qingge. He doesn't need stories to make things more exciting.

    Summary

    A tiny bit of a reverse Beauty & the Beast. The beautiful scholar prince of a conquered country is given in marriage to the monstrous warrior queen of their conquerors, in an effort to keep his family and his kingdom safe. It's possible that his new wife didn't expect him to be quite as pragmatic about it as he is, though. To be fair, his family didn't either.

    Summary

    Apollo likes the familiar. After the roller coaster of the UR-1 retrial following Clay's death, a regular routine is so comfortable that it's practically addictive. It's hard to stave off the lingering sense of stagnation that begins to settle in as the months go on, though, and he supposes it had to be only a matter of time before old wounds opened again.

    The attempted murder of a well-known editor has Apollo defending the author who is the only suspect, but the seemingly cut and dry case is not as simple as it seems. Meanwhile, his mind is racing, Trucy is hard at work preparing plans for her father's birthday party, Athena is ever the over-attentive psycho-analyst, and he and Klavier keep managing to wind up in close quarters.

    It's hard to work a case with his emotions getting in the way, and even harder when everyone around him seems to be revisiting painful memories at the same time.
