    Summary

    Down the seventh-floor passage in Vahumana, past the statue of the sage Zolfikar, and behind the third door from the left; inside a small, abandoned seminar room in the Sumeru Akademiya is a mirror cursed to show the viewer their heart’s deepest desire.

     

    Kaveh’s father smiles at him, slowly, so Kaveh can see it happen; the corners of his mouth quirk upwards and his eyes twinkle. He’s moving, alive.

    Kaveh hasn’t seen his father smile – not the expression itself, preserved in an old Kamera shot he kept in his sketchbook, but the very action of smiling – in almost ten years.

     

    An Alhaitham/Kaveh X Mirror of Erised AU

    Summary

    “Sir, kindly do not obstruct us,” says the matra sharply. “We are in the midst of carrying out an arrest.”

    “An arrest?” repeats Kaveh, incredulously. “You’re arresting him? You’re arresting him? Why, what in Teyvat has he done?”

     

    The Archon Rescue Operation is going as smoothly as it possibly can — that is, until Kaveh returns prematurely from his desert trip, and runs into Alhaitham at the absolute worst possible moment.

    Of course he would.

    Summary

    They gravitated towards Zuko whenever the temperature dipped even slightly. At night, he often woke to someone pulling their bedroll towards him, or slipping under his arm, or turning over in their sleep and colliding with his shoulder.

    It alarmed him, at first. It had never been a good thing when someone woke him in the dead of the night.

    It was strange, then, that he was on the run without Uncle, officially a traitor to his homeland, and for the first time since his mother left, he woke in the night sandwiched between bodies, feeling safe.

     

    (Zuko becomes the group's heat-pack.)

    Summary

    “...i’m sorry,” he says quietly. “i’m always telling you that you can’t change the past, but i couldn’t listen to my own words. i… had to try for you.”

    the clock chimes midnight, bringing them another day closer to september 13.

    (lu guang isn't like cheng xiaoshi: he'll collapse the universe trying to save just one person.)

    Summary

    “I wasn’t ready,” he tries, grip tightening when Cheng Xiaoshi tries to take the controller from him. “One more time.”

    “Go for it, then, but I hope you're prepared to lose.” Cheng Xiaoshi laughs again, letting the controller go and pressing his forehead to Lu Guang’s shoulder as he shakes, grinning. He’s so warm. Has he always been this touchy?

    Could Lu Guang have been making him smile like this in every timeline since the first? Looking hurts his chest. He squeezes the controller a little tighter. “...Everyone needs a few tries to succeed.”
    |
    Small changes add up. In no timeline before has Cheng Xiaoshi loved Lu Guang, but this one is different.

    Summary

    Lu Guang had chosen to live for Cheng Xiaoshi a long time ago. It was the first time he’d seen him die. Maybe even before that. If you think about it too long, living for someone else's sake is a pretty foolish thing to do, but it's a little more complicated than that. Living for someone else is both a selfish and selfless act. Selfless in that you put the safety and wellbeing of that other person above your own. Selfish in the fact that you can’t live without them.

    Just a little something to feed my Shiguang obsession.

    Summary

    "Lu Guang’s limbs feel heavy as he climbs the stairs, every changed minute weighing down his body as he goes to check on Cheng Xiaoshi. He wishes he could do today over again. He doesn’t know if he’d have the strength to do today over again."

    Lu Guang experiences Cheng Xiaoshi being sick for the first time. Twice.

    Summary

    The 'Pure Vessel' is ironically the least pure one the Pale King could've picked from the Abyss. They have doubts, anxieties, and--most of all--a desire to be perfect. That's the only way they can save Hallownest and earn their family's love. Right?

    Summary

    Steven got his DID diagnosis from a previous therapist. Along with, apparently, enough medical trauma that none of the others in his head will get anywhere near his current therapist. So Steven is the only headmate she's worked with.

    ...Until the day he calls in sick, and Andrea starts to wonder who's really on the other end of this telehealth session.

    Summary

    Tragedy strikes the hero community when Bruce Wayne commits a crime so heinous even the best start asking for blood. However, as the heroes try to recover from the hit and carry out justice for their friends, a random assortment of people start acting oddly, including the current Speedy Tim Drake, a child hostage in Gotham, and a young man from an unremarkable circus amongst others. All of them seem intent on saving Bruce Wayne from the grasp of the Justice League for no apparent reason, going as far as betraying their previous allegiances.

    Unknown to the Justice League, these people are equally confused. Clearly they're stuck in another dimension, but how do they get back? How did they even get here? Who else is stuck in this world? And how long will Tim's patience last? Back home, the Bat was a planetary symbol that struck fear in the hearts of criminals. In this new world, it has no meaning, save for the handful of stranded souls.

    Summary

    If Lu Guang were awake, he’d push Xiaoshi away and say, stop that, do you think I’m a cat? (He is, but he wouldn’t ever admit that on his own.)

    So. Xiaoshi is free to run his hand through Lu Guang’s fluffy hair and listen to his soft breathing as he finally falls asleep for the first time in over twenty-four hours. He doesn’t think it’s at all delusional to say that Lu Guang feels more comfortable like this. He hopes so, anyway.

    The best one can do, sometimes, is to just to be there.

    Summary

    "There had to be a timeline that I was the most good-looking in, right? That’s just like, science,” Cheng Xiaoshi continues, a little too quickly for the nonchalance he was attempting. There’s a beat of silence. “Hey Lu Guang, why aren’t you saying anything!”

    Summary

    When the thunder comes again, inevitably, and Lu Guang can't stop himself from flinching, recognition flits across Cheng Xiaoshi's face.

    And he doesn't laugh or tease. He doesn't make fun of Lu Guang for what is entirely nonsensical and childish. He lays a hand over Lu Guang's open palm, as if inviting him to lace their fingers together. Neither of them do. He can't. Maybe Cheng Xiaoshi is waiting for him to. As he closes his eyes for just a moment, the lightning flickers in through the window, morphing his Xiaoshi into one with no wide grin, no soft brown eyes.

    “Hey, it's okay—let me do this for you.”

     

    There's a storm, and Lu Guang spirals inwards.

    Summary

    Lu Guang sighs, drawn-out and slow. “How do you always know?” He says, not unkindly. Just tired.

    “Hm,” Cheng Xiaoshi hums, shuffling a little closer. “Just a feeling.”

     

    Or: The same scene, five times over.

    Summary

    “I’m sorry. This isn’t fair, but I don’t know how I feel about you yet. I can’t make any promises. Can you wait for me?”

    Cheng Xiaoshi throws him a languid smile. “Of course. Don’t you know? I’m pretty good at waiting for people.”

    In the original timeline, Cheng Xiaoshi falls first. Many timelines later, he’s still waiting.

    Summary

    [“There’s this thing that you do,” Alec murmurs. “This power you have that makes you look indestructible.”

    Things can only get worse when Magnus - an investigative journalist - starts peeling back Alec’s carefully-crafted mask … and then there’s the mysterious vigilante with the power to move things with his mind who keeps turning up wherever Alec goes - Alec just can’t cut a break.

    A neonoir slow-burn superheroes AU about identity, truth, and falling in love without knowing someone’s real name (ft. everyone has superpowers because I couldn’t help myself).
