Summary
“Why do you keep coming back?” Xie Lian asked.
“I come back because I want to,” San Lang said, fingers running through Xie Lian’s dark hair. “I want to be here, by your side.”
They keep meeting, over and over, all in the wrong circumstances. It's not always bad, but it's hard.
Together, eventually, they will find peace and happiness. They won't be alone. Never again.

Summary
“Lan Zhan,” Wei Wuxian speaks. “Do you think… Once something is shattered into a million pieces, can it ever be mended?”
Things will obviously never be the same. But is it so wrong to hope that what has been broken can be repaired?

Summary
If there’s one thing Alhaitham cannot stand, it’s the summer heat. Kaveh knows this well.
Sometimes, though, Alhaitham has decided he doesn't find it quite as unbearable as he usually does.

Summary
A sigh then, one of frustration, as Alhaitham’s friend sits upright. He tries not to miss their warmth too much as he watches them stand, likely about to pace around the room as they gather their thoughts. “It’s not like I don’t love my mother,” they say, and, yep, in comes the pacing. “I could never not do that. But for some reason, whenever it happens— whenever someone says something like that, I look at myself, and I just…”
They pause in their movements, a frown present on their face as they stare down at their hands. They’re shaking again, and Alhaitham stands up, stepping closer to them to take their hands in his own. A small, reassuring action, silently telling his friend that they aren’t alone, and if they need to stop, they don’t have to continue.
“I don’t feel like I look right,” they say, their voice quiet and trembling. Alhaitham’s heart cracks a little more. “I don’t… I don’t want to look like her. Not completely. I want to look like me.”

Summary
Alhaitham couldn’t pinpoint the reason for his uneasiness until someone walked into his office unannounced to discuss something with him. He sighed to himself, instinctively reaching for the button on his headphones to mute the sound around him so that he could focus on his work without being disturbed by someone who didn’t even have the courtesy to knock–
And then it didn’t work.
Alarm bells quickly went off in Alhaitham’s head. A fluke, certainly. He must have not pressed the button hard enough. It wouldn’t be the first time a small mistake like that happened.
He presses it again, harder this time to ensure that it was actually turned on.
Nothing.
Okay. Maybe he should be panicking a little bit now.
