    Summary

    The first sound Ilya hears is a thin, discordant symphony of beeps and whirs. Something vibrating. 

    The next thing he hears is…wet. A sort of shaking, gargling sound, that feels like the ugliest crying he’s ever heard. And through it, Shane’s voice. 

    “I’m with him now, mom. He’s— he’s not fine. He’s not. I know—”

    Ilya wants to ask who's not fine, but he can’t feel his own body, his mouth, enough to ask.

    “Yeah,” Shane is saying, only slightly calmer. “I know. He wasn’t breathing—"

    Ilya knows there's a link, between the clinical musicality of medical settings, Shane’s audible, awful distress, and his own physical incapacity. It’s just, it’s so tenuous, and the air around him is so thick, so heavy. It would be easy, to sleep, a little. 

    -
    Footage of the last game between Ottawa and Montreal is everywhere; it’s breached containment from the sports world, and now it seems like everyone is baying for Montreal’s blood. Except, Ilya is oblivious. Not exactly blissfully so, but as the fight for accountability within the league rages on without him, Ilya just wants someone, anyone, to tell him what happened.

    Summary

    Suguru insists they sleep in different rooms whenever they’re on missions together, but Satoru’s still knocking on her door early in the morning. When Suguru doesn’t answer quickly enough, he just opens the door and steps inside like he’s just allowed to, without thinking about propriety or boundaries.

    Satoru’s like that. Pushy bastard. Thinks he’s entitled to anything he wants.

    Suguru should definitely say something. Kick him out

    Summary

    She scans the letter once more, her gaze falling to the hastily scrawled signature at the bottom. “Itto,” she muses. “Figures. I’ve seen his recipe cards, you know? Absolute nightmare.”

    Xiangling clears her throat before continuing with, “‘To my numero uno’—Really, Itto?” Xiangling can’t help snorting, but Ningguang’s stern gaze pulls her right back to the present. “Right, er, sorry, Ma’am. ‘My compadre, I issue to you a challenge of the culinary sort. A Grand Duel of creative wit.’” She looks at her boss, who watches back patiently. “He wants to do a promotional thing. With Liyue Express, I mean. Something about a food battle to drive social media presence.”

    Xiangling squints at the letter again, trying to decipher the rest. “Inazuman-Liyuen fusion. ‘Once we’ve crafted our wily recipes, we'll do a live feed on TeyvatTok and let the public vote on which looks the best. Winner gets—’” Xiangling snorts, laughter building in her belly. “‘Bragging Rights."

    Chefs Xiangling and Arataki Itto go head-to-head in a livestreamed celebrity cook-off. Written for McPaimon's, a Genshin Fast Food Zine.

    Summary

    Yes, Xiao Xingchen is going back to his hometown at Christmas. No, he is not going back for Christmas. He does not celebrate Christmas, and he completely rejects the basic premise of all of those hegemonic Hallmark holiday movies, and nothing is going to change his mind. Not even an unexpected reunion with his high school sweetheart or an arguable meet-cute with his mothers’ cute handyman.

    Chinese New Year, on the other hand—

    Summary

    Ilya doesn't go into their game against Philly intending to hate Gritty, contrary to Shane's assumptions. He has it all worked out. It's just going to be a fun little bit that he does. Gritty has a menacing energy that should vibe well with Ilya's everything.

    In their second year as captains of the Nordiques, Shane and Ilya have more challenges to face, including a team that is now aware of them as a couple, anxious new additions, flirtatious mascots, and a hockey world that is finally responding to change...

    Direct sequel to domoy, wherein Shane and Ilya go to the Quebec Nordiques in this AU’s expansion draft and come out to the world, and Yuri, Yuuri, and Viktor move to Canada.
