Sometimes Lin Jing would stare at Zhao Yunlan's empty shoulder, unavoidable reflections occurring to him. And although he himself possessed all the soulfires, he also felt something essential was missing.
There was so much dust and dark water from the Wangchuan spreading everywhere, forming black mud when they pooled. There were still echoing screams and crashes here and there, from what was yet to break and fall.
Returning there, with a mere human body, was a very high risk. It required more foolishness than courage.
If enlightenment is individual, is it rebellion to make it two souls instead?

There's nothing to be ashamed of, Xiao Wei. If he can control himself, each of these droplets is his now.

The peaceful years that had already passed with the shade of that tree sheltering his naps were beginning to be hard to count to Shen San. Six or nine or more, but it still felt like he hadn’t spent enough time with Wei.
"Well, it's not like one lifetime, until old age, is enough anyway," he chuckled to himself as he sat down on the wooden platform that stretched across the front of the hut.

Xianxia au for the bois!

During a case, Yunlan gets injured and Shen Wei takes care of him.

It’s a what if: Shen Wei returns to Haixing instead of going to the pillar.

"Are you sure you don't know why Zhao-chu put you and me on this mission?" Lin Jing asked again.
"I have no idea," Gui Mian lied. "I also have no idea whose brilliant mind was behind the proposal that I'm more useful in the Guardian Order than living my life away from you all. I've already received enough punishments for things that shouldn't even be punished…"

"Xiao Guo thought it would be a good idea for me to learn more about your world through modern movies. Lin Jing is definitely not helping by choosing sci-fi and horror," Ye Zun said.
"Look," Lin Jing began, offended. "To start with, if you think about what we've been through, sci-fi and horror are pretty realistic, too."
"I don't know who I'll stand on that one..." Xiao Guo confessed.

Now that Dixing was finally open and free, and Shen Wei worked even harder than before to adjust - himself, his people and the Haixingren - to that new reality, Ye Zun wondered what he could do, if he still didn’t know how to fit in that world. A shared one.
Not all Haixingren were faceless existences to him anymore; he’d seen those faces up close, deliberately hurt many of them. Ye Zun was sure he didn’t need to see any of those too specific faces right now, when all he wanted was a break and some fresh air.
“How can I be so unlucky?”

"They've been locked in there for hours," Zhu Hong commented the obvious, without taking her eyes off the direction of the laboratory door.
"Chu-ge, do you think we should intervene? What if- What if-" Guo Changcheng wanted to come up with a good enough reason for them to raid the lab, but at the same time, he didn't want to think about what kind of accusation someone might unfairly receive if he started imagining too much.
"It'll be fine, Changcheng," Chu Shuzhi said from beneath the file folder covering his face as he tried to take a nap in the chair. "Lin Jing has survived that lab and himself for years enough."
"But not with company."

"I thought you wanted a deal," Lin Jing teased while his partner was unable to answer.
"You put up with me causing trouble all night. And you gave me a great time having to hug me from behind to hide certain things in public because not even around our friends were you less turned on by me. It was flattering. Consider your end of the deal paid.”

- This fic is a stand-alone, but you can read the work it was inspired in as a prequel, if you want.

Cong Bo took a closer look at the situation around him. And the belated realization hit him harder than if he'd suddenly woken up one day with technological amnesia, and all he knew was analog.
"Am I the only single person here?"
Maybe the right question Cong Bo should have been asking himself was why he was the only straight person there.

There was someone moving in across the street.

4 Bright Avenue had sat empty for what felt like centuries, at least to Lan Qiao (or Qiao Qiao as her friends called her), who was eight and a half at the time. It seemed as if it had been there even before the city came to be. Surviving the way cockroaches or beetles do. While the rest of the city evolved and shifted around it, was torn down and rebuilt, 4 Bright Avenue remained. Unchanged.

The neighbors said it was cursed. Or haunted. Or worse.

What could be worse than being cursed or haunted, Qiao Qiao didn’t know.

OR

Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan are Morticia and Gomez coded, and Weezie has Feelings about it.

In which Pei Su applies everything he learned to seduce Luo Weizhao, and Luo Weizhao plows through his defenses in the only way he knows how.

OR

Pei Su uses his list of "ways to seduce a scruffy cop guy" and Weizhao's brain goes "oh no, he's hot".

Zhao Yunlan is one of the best officers Shen Wei has worked with. Intuitive, intelligent, and brave. But he’s also brash, mouthy, and was raised for most of his youth by Zhao Xinci. He’s not above casual bigotry. Vampires feed on humans; vampires seek to control humans. Humans fear and hate them. Zhao Yunlan’s mental model doesn’t excuse the significant proportion of the species who work to hold the balance. Who recognize that chaos and bloodshed isn’t a solution.

But Shen Wei remembers. He remembers a time that hasn’t happened yet. A time when things will be otherwise.

And he waits. And he hopes.

The arrangement being Shen Wei would keep an eye on Pei Su utilizing his contacts on campus, and they would try both methods. Yunlan had joked about placing bets, but quietly dropped the idea when Shen Wei just stared at him for too long.

OR

Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan are going to adopt Pei Su whether he likes it or not, and they're also going to be disgustingly adorable and domestic on the side, as a treat.

The treat is for the author, she needs the treat.
