    Summary

    Apparently Jie Lianyu has made quite a reputation for himself. He heard from a grapevine flowing through the city that Hua Cheng spent his days searching for someone—his wraith butterflies scattered around the land looking for a rumored person who held his heart. Hence, he became known outside of the palace walls as the kind-hearted concubine Jie Lianyu, yet unloved by the Lord of the City: The one took kind to the outcasts and the lonely.

    It answered many of his questions, mainly why Hua Cheng never seemed to be interested in seeing him: It was because Hua Cheng has a beloved. Out there in the world somewhere—a beloved he is tirelessly searching for; The one who fully occupies his heart, leaving no space for Xie Lian.

    And that’s… fine.

    Or

    With the Human-Face Disease running rampant, Xianle fell into poverty. To save his people, Xie Lian was married off to the wealthy yet cruel Lord of Ghost City, Hua Cheng.

    But under the name of a distant cousin of Xie, Jie Lianyu.

    If only Hua Cheng knew that.

    Summary

    “Hey, you’ll probably know, right? What do men like?”

    N looks up.

    His outfit is somehow more ridiculous than it was before. Their quest to find him something half-acceptable grows more bleak with each tick of the clock on the wall. He is now wearing palm-tree-printed pants. They could very well be the worst pants ever created. And it seems he’s made his own addition: a neon blue cap, which reads, PATRAT NATION.

    A thoughtful look crosses the man’s face. He tosses her question back and forth in his mind.

    “Mathematical formulas,” He decides. He sounds certain of his answer.

    -----

    After Team Neo-Plasma was defeated, only rumors of its members were left. Without Zekrom, N doesn’t have anywhere left to go. Still.. most don't expect to find the former King wandering about Castelia City.

    He’s never had the opportunity to live a 'normal' life. After losing his way, his friends, and parting with his former dreams, he has little to do but start again. Talking to 'normal' people, his life becomes a lot less lonely.

    abandoned

    alternatively, the flow of water around rocks, and why nature should take better care of its children

    In which one is water who flows too much to be held down, one is wild wind kept locked away without direction, one is a widow wrapped in their own web and one is a blurry mirror ready to shatter.

    Kakashi finds Team Seven and Team Seven find him without them ever being assigned to each other.

    He'd thought it was just luck, to see children with eyes like his. It's really not.
    Then he thinks it's just natural magnetism, but that can't be right either.
    Opposites attract, and he's far from the opposite of any of them.

    Summary

    Percy finally has a friend who is completely and entirely normal. Someone around whom he doesn't have to be a demigod hero. Carter Kane is about as mortal as they come, and Percy intends to keep his secret from his new friend for as long as he can.

    Carter finally has a friend entirely unrelated to the magical side of his life. Someone he doesn't have to share with Sadie or save the world with. Percy Jackson is the furthest thing from a magician, and Carter is determined to keep Percy very separate from any and all mythology.

    --

    Or: Two idiots try to protect each other from the dangerous magical aspects of their double-lives without realizing that the other is just as wrapped up in crazy mythological stuff as they are. And maybe they end up falling in love somewhere along the way.
