    Summary

    The lot next to the house had been empty for as long as Mu Qing could remember. The grounds inside the cage-like wooden fences yielded only fruit trees: apples and quinces, nothing more and nothing less, and a run-down swimming pool, croaking with frogs on humid summer nights.


    or, ten years' time seen through the eyes of a little boy, a clumsy teen and a young man.

    Summary

    “If you are not married within 2 months, I will take your position and give the entire south to Nan Yang.” That sends fire through Mu Qing’s veins. He realizes exactly what this is now. Another attempt to get rid of him and his tainted, impoverished blood. Jun Wu had done something similar when he forced Mu Qing to share the south with Feng Xin, thinking it would edge him out until Feng Xin took the position himself, but it hadn’t been so blatant then. Mu Qing was just as surprised as everyone else when Feng Xin split the south with him equally. Even as they fought with each other, protecting their territory together always came first. Jun Wu smiles warmly, returning to his usual self, “You may leave now.”

    ;Or Mu Qing baby traps Feng Xin so he'll marry him, but he doesn't expect Feng Xin to be so attentive with the pregnancy.

    Summary

    Bruce, predictably, is saying nothing. It’s a very productive nothing, that is saying quite a lot, quite loudly.
    “Go make that face somewhere else,” Dick tells him. “It’s not helpful.”
    “I’m not making a face,” Bruce says, lying baldly.
    “You are making a face,” Jason tells Bruce.
    “It’s not my fault there’s a ghost,” Dick says, arms crossed over his chest like he wants to pout but knows he’s too old for it.
    “I know,” Bruce tells Dick. 
    “So stop making a face at me about the ghost!”
    “I’m right here,” the ghost says.

    Summary

    What is it that’s so gratifying about sex that both men and women alike keep wanting, craving, desiring more?

    Is it the warmth of being held afterwards or the intercourse itself?

    Will Mu Qing's lack of insight be... unappealing to his lovers? Yes, he will simply request Hua Cheng to help him out, that will do. (Surely it isn't peculiar, is it?)

    “Have sex with me.”

    Summary

    The thought had been niggling at the back of his mind quite a bit lately. He wasn’t showing Shang Qinghua proper obeisance, was he? They’d grown so comfortable in their roles - Mobei-Jun as Shang Qinghua’s king, and Shang Qinghua as his dutiful servant - that they hadn’t thought to… stop. It was how it had always been. But things were different, now, weren’t they? They’d been different for a long time now. To ignore that wasn’t proper.

    That stops now, Mobei-Jun decides. His ancestors would be rolling in their graves to see him ignore the proper rites of courtship - the fact that he and Shang Qinghua were already mated besides. He was not raised to be some kind of country rube, as much as being sequestered so far up north might imply otherwise. Shang Qinghua was his partner, and, with all factors properly calculated, the more powerful of the two. It was only proper that Mobei-Jun display an appropriate level of submission to his better.

    --

    Mobei-Jun realizes with increasing clarity that he wants to serve Shang Qinghua. Shang Qinghua does NOT pick up on it.

    Summary

    Shang Qinghua is not stupid.

    It does not take a genius to know what it means when you ask a servant where your lord has left to and they readily supply the name of an exclusive brothel in between the two realms. Especially when it's after your utterly disastrous first time together.

    So he goes away for a bit to clear his head. And promptly gets kidnapped.

    Summary

    The road to destroying everything and everyone who has ever wronged him, to becoming the highest ruler so that no one will ever have the right to control him ever again - it will start as simply as ruining Gongyi Xiao’s life.

    Compared to everything else he’s already done, this should be easy.

    -

    Summary

    Feng Xin finds himself kneeling, too, in front of the ghost. The talisman doesn’t even flutter, because there are no breaths to disrupt it where it lays, so he reaches out to lift one of the bottom corners.

    Carefully, he lifts his other hand and brushes some of the strands of silver hair; it’s soft, perhaps even too soft, but the likeness otherwise isn’t bad. His skin is pale and clear and even shows a faint flush across the cheeks.

    “Qing’er,” Feng Xin says quietly, and wonders if the ghost can even hear him under whatever spell the talisman carries. “... Is it you?”

    -

    A few hundred years ago, Xie Lian tried to get Mu Qing in to study cultivation at the Royal Holy Pavilion, and was denied.

    A few hundred years ago, Feng Xin met the former palace servant Mu Qing at a brothel after the fall of Xianle.

    Now, Feng Xin investigates a ghost that stalks and kills soldiers in the Yong'an capital.

    Summary

    “No archery competitions this year, then,” Mu Qing comments.

    Because that’s what summer usually consists of, for Feng Xin: travelling, archery, and spending time with people who aren’t his prickly best friend. For Mu Qing, summers have always been considerably quieter and less interesting. He works shifts at his mother’s shop, occasionally messages Feng Xin to ask how his competitions are going, and spends the rest of his time reading or thinking about how much he resents summer.

    This will be the first time since the two of them met that Feng Xin won’t be leaving as soon as summer begins. It really isn’t that big of a deal—at least, that’s what Mu Qing tells himself.

    “I thought I’d make the most of this summer at home, instead,” Feng Xin says. He seems almost bashful as he says, “You know, with the people I actually care about.”

    Or: Mu Qing has always hated summer, until now.

    Summary

    Feng Xin is usually able to focus on his studies during his late night shifts. He can usually catch up on the materials his professors hand out during the theoretical classes, and sometimes he even finishes a project or two while he's at it, if he's especially productive.

    Well, emphasise on usually. Tonight he can't seem to get anything done.

    Tonight is a very strange night.


    or, feng xin always thought he'd fall in love with his job, not at his job.

    Summary

    “I think we should break up.”

    Feng Xin timed it so that Mu Qing wasn’t eating or drinking but Mu Qing didn’t react beyond raising an eyebrow. “Break up?”

    “Uh, yeah, because...” How are you supposed to tell someone that you don’t think they’re happy anymore? That you're in love with them and that they only see you as a casual thing? Mu Qing was stressed and he never let Feng Xin meet his mom and he never moved in. Mu Qing hated when Feng Xin said I love you, actually; he’d get tense and change the subject. The one time Feng Xin had tried to talk about marriage, he’d said Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

    “Fine.”

    --

    Feng Xin and Mu Qing break up. Turns out they're not very good at staying apart.

    Summary

    Feng Xin can’t pinpoint the moment when everything fell apart.

    Maybe it would be easier if he could - if there was a single big Event to place fault upon, maybe he’d feel less empty now, standing beside his pickup truck with empty hands, his wedding ring unworn and burning a hole in his pocket.

    Summary

    It had been a decade since Xie Lian passed on.

    Feng Xin should've let the past stay in the past, but when he found out his old best friend's house was going to be demolished after being on the market for so long with no buyers, he made a stupid decision. He actually bought the house. He knew it would come with baggage, but he didn't realize that baggage would come in the form of ghosts.

    Summary

    Mu Qing regularly fantasizes about strangling Feng Xin with that stupid sales-rack tie of his that manages to look better than anything Mu Qing’s ever owned. He’s pretty sure Feng Xin harbors the same sentiment towards him.

    Unfortunately, there are a few other things Mu Qing fantasizes about that star his most annoying co-worker— and they only seem to get worse when Feng Xin starts being nice to him.
