Summary
Over time, they begin to grow tired. They wake later, start yawning earlier, and get less done during the days. Vessel sees their exhaustion and irritation grow and knows it’s almost time. He remembers the way he seemed to get worn down, too, until he could no longer leave his bed – he hadn’t exactly feared death, then, but had almost expected its quiet knock on his door. Now that he knows it’s not death coming to call, but transfiguration, he can make preparations with a heart less heavy.
or – II, III, and IV are transformed.

Summary
Finally, when they’ve been quiet for a while and the twilight has taken over the sunroom enough that its corners are little nests of pure darkness, Cheng Xiaoshi asks, “What’s on your mind?”
Lu Guang inhales, but doesn’t answer for a while. His fingers twitch a little, as if he means to pull them away at the question, but when Cheng Xiaoshi gives his hand another squeeze, he resettles.
“I’m happy you’re alive, Cheng Xiaoshi,” Lu Guang finally says, in that voice that Cheng Xiaoshi has only heard a few times and only when it’s just them two.
or, some things are easier said in the dark.

Summary
The cauldrons in all the childhood fairytales he remembers were these huge things that filled half a room and could fit several misbehaving children in them. This one, however, is tiny, smaller than the ceramic teapot at his and Brett’s apartment. It sits on the countertop, on a little ashtray that’s apparently home to a magical flame. He’d stupidly blurted out that he’d expected a cauldron large enough to stand in, and the hag had laughed.
“Silly boy. I’m not heating up the big one for one little potion.”
Great. He’s doing something morally reprehensible, and he’s being an idiot about it.

Summary
There is a mountain’s worth of things they don’t talk to each other about, and this, too, has always been an unspoken agreement between them.
Itʼs too personal. They could never look at each other the same way afterward.
Cheng Xiaoshi would never possess Lu Guang.
(...until he does.)

Summary
“You want to talk to people about me?” Shane asked quietly.
There was something small and confused in the question. But Ilya was still furious and raw.
“Well I would,” he sneered, “if there was anything about you that was fucking interesting to talk about! It would be nice to not be so fucking bored and miserable!”
The second the words left his mouth, he watched the pain roll across Shane's features like a thousand fractures shattering through glass.
Ilya had seen Shane nearly break ribs. He had seen him miss game-winning shots, take hits that left bruises blooming purple and black across his skin. He had never seen this.
Shane closed his eyes for a long moment. He shook his head slightly, a tiny movement, then nodded once as if agreeing with something only he could hear. His face twisted briefly with a fresh wave of pain before he forced it to still.
---------
What if Shane and Ilya don't make up so easily after the Boxing Day fight? The Centaur's plane never malfunctions, so Shane never proposes. Instead, Ilya gives him an ultimatum on coming out and going public. It backfires spectacularly.

Summary
When you’re going up in flames, sometimes other people can smell the smoke. On the flip side, at least: when you’re on fire, sometimes other people can feel the warmth.
Or, scenes from Home Economics, told from the perspective of everyone else.

“I like it,” he says weakly. “I like it, I like you holding me like this.”
“Like what?”
“Like you own me.”

Summary
“I am out for the season?”
“Probably."
“Are you by any chance looking for a trophy husband?”
“Ilya.”
“Yes? No?”
“It’s one season, Ilya, we’re not—it’s bad because you’re hurting, not because—I’m not letting this fuck anything up for us, okay? We’ll figure something out,” Shane says, resolutely.
or, you know what they say about the best laid plans
ilya’s first year in ottawa looks a little different than originally planned, maybe sort of because he ends up spending it recovering a broken leg in his boyfriend’s apartment, but probably mostly because he meets jackie pike
