His eyes open and he looks at Shuzhi and the relief that crashes through him nearly drowns him. Changcheng looks at him and takes a breath and he is alive and Shuzhi is alive and they are -

He kisses Changcheng then.

"Could a sleep deprived person do this?"

The one where Xiao Wei gets hurt and all hell breaks loose for those who thought that it was an excellent idea to mess with Gui Wang.

A very drunk Zhao Yunlan summons the Black-Cloaked Envoy in the middle of the night for help with a grievous crime. His heart has been stolen.

These guys deserve a happy ending!
Music: Dan Wilson - Breathless

Shen Wei stirs again and breathes a word, so quietly that Zhao Yunlan would have missed it if he weren’t right in Shen Wei’s face.

“Zhao Yunlan.”

Or: what if Zhao Yunlan didn’t smell the ghoul blood on his jacket?

Guo Changcheng wakes up first for once.

For a body lies in the center of the room, glass table broken beneath. Shards gleam, blood shining bright, soaking into the carpet. He really should have allowed Chu Shuzhi to come with them.

Because Dr. Park thought that running a dungeons and dragons campaign would be a "creative outlet" to "safely explore" all of Shen Ye's (definitely not homicidal) ideas. 52 sessions later, Zhao Yunlan thinks Shen Ye is having a little too much fun creating the main villain of the campaign (does he seem familiar to you?). Da Qing is just in it for the shrimp chips.

“Just in case you do belong to someone who misses you. But maybe you’re just magically a really clean stray cat so you can stay with me and be all mine, mine, mine,” Zhao Yunlan explained, as if the cat could understand him. He just felt he had to say something, like he didn’t want the cat to misunderstand and think Zhao Yunlan didn’t want him. Which was ridiculous, because this was a cat. How could a cat misunderstand anything?

The ability to shapeshift into a cat didn’t often come into play in Shen Wei’s role as Heipaoshi protecting everyday citizens against powered Dixingren. However, discovering that the new S.I.D. chief was gaining the trust of Dixingren allies against all odds, Shen Wei decides to use this ability to indulge his curiosity with a harmless bit of reconnaissance. Unexpectedly, this spur of the moment decision leads to him stalking a surprisingly familiar man, one he’d never thought he’d see again. Irresistibly drawn to this beloved figure, Shen Wei finds himself on light paws and in dark fur day after day, watching unseen from within the shadows...

Or so he thinks.

Follow-up to The Heart of the Matter. Case fic.

As Zhao Yunlan relishes the recent turn his relationship with Shen Wei has taken, a mysterious death at school—the discovery of a female student turned into a statue—as well as the vanishings of various students on campus appear to be linked with the old science building, which is rumored to be a nest for ghosts or evil spirits. While Shen Wei looks for clues on campus, Zhao Yunlan and his SID handle a series of perfect burglaries, but both cases seem to point in the same direction, and as the group gets closer to the truth, Zhao Yunlan ends up on the wrong side of the investigation.

What will become of Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan's blooming relationship, and will Shen Wei's true identity be revealed at last?

Shen Wei is in the business of pleasure. Zhao Yunlan is eager to experience everything The Dragon’s Lair has to offer, but what he wants most is Shen Wei himself.

“He has made his choice.”

Ah. Perhaps Shen Wei’s night will have some semblance of peace after all.

“He’s chosen . . . you.”

Zhao Yunlan was badly hurt when Shen Wei was leading a lecture. Now he has to save his lover.

Dragon City University faculty want Shen Wei to be the new university chancellor. Shen Wei wants more time alone with Zhao Yunlan. The one, as it turns out, can lead to the other. Along the way, long-standing divisions are resolved and everyone gets a happy ending.

This was written as a sequel to Mandatory Faculty Meeting but can be read as a standalone.
