Summary
Xie Lian gets a glimpse of its eye: a hot coal set deep into unearthly, marble-like skin, onyx pupil blown so wide with bloodlust it threatens to swallow the red iris entirely. A mouth full of entirely too many teeth, extended incisors bared like daggers. Rust smeared down the pale line of its throat.
A vampire. A feral vampire.
Looking at him like a feast set out before a starving man.
While wandering the mortal realm, Xie Lian stumbles upon a hungry vampire who, curiously, seems reluctant to drink from him.

Summary
“I’m afraid there isn’t anyone left who will pay a ransom for us now. Apologies.”
“Why the fuck are you apologizing to them?” Mu Qing snaps. “Do you recall the part where we’re their unwilling captives?”
“Politeness never hurts,” Xie Lian says.
“I have a hard time believing no one would want you back, gege.” Hua Cheng’s words are spoken in almost a purr. Xie Lian sees He Xuan give Hua Cheng a subtle pinch on his upper arm—though, to the captain’s credit, he doesn’t even flinch.

Summary
Sometimes Kim dreams of running away to Dublin, when he’s feeling more ambitious. He could get work in a theater or a fine pub, maybe, or he could pick up any old job. He isn’t afraid of hard work.
But today is not an ambitious day. Today is a rare and precious day when the sea looks like glass. Today there’s nothing for it but for Kim to put on a thick sweater against the cold, toss his fiddle in his little boat, and go floating.
~~~
Kim knows the lore. He's heard the tales. But that doesn't mean he ever expected to meet one of the fae in person.

Summary
Lan Wangji opens his mouth. He closes it. He is blisteringly aware of how absurd it sounds for him to say, I am you, only happier. The truth, perhaps, is not always the best choice.
