Summary
"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single woman in possession of a prodigious magical talent, must be in want of a husband."
In a world vaguely reminiscent of our own early 1800s, failed artist in residence Nancy Crane is recalled from her position at a finishing school in order to confront the engagement between her younger sister Alice, a soon to be acclaimed magician, and an ambitious baronet, Sir Thomas May. Suspicious of May’s motives and faced with whispers that he and a fringe group of rebels are plotting to overthrow the Princess Regent in favor of her dastardly nephew, Nancy attempts to uncover the truth about Sir Thomas and protect her family from both the vicious gossip of the Ton and sinister sorceries.

Summary
Apollo liked Klavier, and Klavier liked Apollo. That was a fact, a fact that could easily be proven when asking the two about the other. Because of this, their respective friendgroups have always had to deal with their constant gay shenanigans. They've always wanted the two to finally get together, but they had no idea how.
One day, when Clay and Ema are paired up for an astronomy assignment, they end up talking about their gay ass pining friends. They realize that if they harness the powers of both friendgroups, they might finally be able to get the two idiots together.
So they did just that, merging their friend groups in a groupchat with the shared goal of getting Apollo and Klavier together. It may have been a terrible idea, but that doesn't stop them

Summary
Hua Cheng says, “Dianxia moved back to the city,” and all Mu Qing can see is fucking static.

Feng Xin has been gone for a third of his life. Does that counteract the third of his life he was in, or erase it completely?
--
Eight years after leaving, Xie Lian and Feng Xin move back to the city. Mu Qing wants nothing to do with them. Easier said than done, what with his roommate Hua Cheng pestering Mu Qing to set him up with Xie Lian and Feng Xin showing up at his favorite coffee shop.

Summary
Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth: no matter how you look at them, they're obviously in love with each other. Ask anyone, they'd say the same thing.
Well, except—ironically enough—Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth. Really, the members of their respective offices have gotten sick and tired of watching them pine after one another.
So imagine their surprise when they find out that yes, their bosses are well aware of it, and no, the office matchmaking services are Not Needed.
It takes what is, quite frankly, an embarrassing amount of time for them to realize that.
