    Summary

    “Qingqiu," Shen Yuan nodded. He wondered if he could convince Shen Jiu to put up his paintings. Shen Yuan loved his paintings, but it had been such a fight to get that boy to part with even one. He could still remember how Shen Jiu had burned the painting Shen Yuan had taken from him without asking. Of course that was Shen Yuan's fault. He should have accounted for his little bird's shyness.
    "Qingqiu." Shen Yuan nodded again.
    Qingqiu.
    Qingqiu.
    Why did that name—
    "Qingqiu!" Shen Yuan yelped. "Shen Qingqiu!"

    -or-

    Shizun Shen Yuan finds out something upsetting about his most beloved disciple’s future. Clearly he’ll just have to do something about that.

    Cultivating Trust Lust

    Cursed after a hunt, Shen Jiu decided he’s going to do what he does best—suffer in silence—until a sudden decrease in his cultivation forces him to seek help.

    Enter Peak Lord Shen Yuan, biggest anti-fan of Shang Qinghua’s terrible book that he has memorised anyway, including the cure Shen Jiu is looking for.

    Summary

    “You do it to yourself,” he commands, looking every bit as regal and proud as a king on his throne.

    “But then, how will you get off?” Kim Dokja asks again, raising his eyebrows.

    Yoo Joonghyuk frowns at him for even daring to question him. “By watching.”

    "...I can't tell if you're a voyeur, or just a pervert."

    The routine in the First Murim is a simple one. Yoo Joonghyuk trains under the Breaking the Sky Sword Saint, eats dumplings, cleans the courtyard, and bends Kim Dokja over whenever he gets the chance.

    Summary

    “This must be discrimination,” he decides. He's thrown a whole loaf at these hellish ducks and they've not pecked a crumb. It's the only explanation.

    Yoo Joonghyuk offers the rest of his bread to Kim Dokja, who squints at him with great suspicion.

    “Throw it.” Yoo Joonghyuk’s eyebrow twitches, and then he clarifies, "To the ducks," like Kim Dokja would have otherwise punted the bread into the horizon. Which is. Not true.

    Apparently, Kim Dokja's been dating his roommate for two whole years, despite thinking they would never be more than friends.

    To make up for time lost, he devises a list of couple-y things to do with Yoo Joonghyuk: dates, meeting parents, the whole package. This time, he wants to do things right.

    ( Kitchen sex is the first priority. )

    Summary

    As Kaveh sorts the jugs into two groupings—one for the punch bowl and one for the drain—a bell chimes, clattering against the front door.

    “We’re about to close,” Tighnari snaps at the entering customer.

    Kaveh springs to his feet and positions himself behind the register.

    “How can I help—”

    You.

    The customer is halfway to the counter when their eyes lock, and time stops. The man’s shoulders stiffen. Heterochromatic eyes—teal and orange, fire and water, familiar as the breath in Kaveh’s mouth, as the freckle above his left knee—widen with shock and a little disbelief. His mouth drops open, slack, and Kaveh thinks, I don’t think I’ve ever seen him speechless before.

    Oh, gods.

    Kaveh thought he’d never see Alhaitham again.

    After a year without contact, Alhaitham wanders into Kaveh's coffee shop.

    Kaveh wants nothing to do with him — he already has enough problems. But Alhaitham's determined to give him just one more, and perhaps solve a few in the process.
