    Summary

    It starts like every other fight. Liu Qingge lands one hit to Luo Binghe's every three, both of them bruising and collecting injuries like art. It drags on until the sunlight starts to fade, until they're both breathing heavily and covered in a fine sheet of sweat.

    And then Luo Binghe makes a mistake.

    It's small - just a minor misstep, an unfortunate shift of balance. Against any other opponent, it wouldn't mean a thing. Wouldn't make a difference. But Liu Qingge has been watching. Liu Qingge has been waiting for Luo Binghe to make a mistake for years. He quickly changes his attack mid-step, throwing his weight against the opening Luo Binghe's mistake left, and Luo Binghe falls. Liu Qingge falls with him, of course -he compromised too much of his balance with that attack - but he makes sure to end up on top, straddling Luo Binghe and pressing the flat of Cheng Luan's blade to his neck.

    Without meaning to, without thinking to stop it, Liu Qingge smiles at him, bright and genuine and triumphant.

    Luo Binghe's breath catches.

    "I win."

    ---

    ~Or~ The one where Liu Qingge actually wins a fight and Luo Binghe ends up getting a little hot for Shishu.

    Summary

    When Lan Wangji ran away from the jingshi to look for himself, his back still raw, and on Yiling he found only a small child, feverish but still capable of a little bit of babbling, still able to tell the story of what had happened – when he found the traces of blood on the ground, Wei Wuxian’s from when his power had backlashed on him – when he saw the bodies in the blood pool, already rotting –

    For the first time in his life, Lan Wangji didn’t want to go home.

    (what if he had another option?)

    Summary

    The confrontation between Victor and Yuri at the end of episode 10 goes a little differently, as Victor decides it's time for Yuri to own up to the things he says to people.

    Yuri thought the worst part about having a stupid crush on both his mentor and his idol-slash-rival was watching them get lost together in their own little world. Then he thought the worst part was standing at the edge of that, too afraid to ask if he was welcome.

    Yuuri and Victor show him the best part can happen when you learn to ask for what you want.

    Summary

    Tod steps back, goes to the bar and pours some watered-down scotch. Black knows it's watered down, that his easy drinking is a power play for the older businessmen who keep looking for his father behind him and can't accept taking orders from a kid. "Tawi had Techit. I'm going to have you and your beautiful brain."

    --

    Todd blackmails Black into working for him. This is a love story.
