    Summary

    Modern cultivator, Wei Wuxian, dies in a train crash and is sent back in time to the period of Ancient China he had been writing his thesis on - transmigrated into his own body as a child, dying on the streets of Yiling. He has no money, no family, but a knowledge of modern cultivation and of the historical events that are about to unfold.

    He recalls the recently-unearthed journal of a woman who was imprisoned in Cloud Recesses against her will, and decides that she’s a good place to start to find someone who might be willing to help him dismantle the corruption that had sent the Cultivation World into the Dark Ages so long ago.

    Of course, he had no idea that the person he sought would be the mother of Hanguang-Jun, the object of Wei Wuxian's fascination (“obsession,” his friend had corrected), since he had first learned of his existence in the ancient texts he'd studied.

    Summary

    Xie Lian is having a pretty okay second banishment. He’s been hiding in the woods for who knows how long because something in him broke and now he kills any living creature he touches but he’s fine, it’s fine!
    Or at least it will be once Hua Cheng, who’s been searching for centuries, finally gets to give his god everything he dreamed of offering. Good thing ghosts aren’t living creatures!

    Summary

    When Harry was young, a prophecy foretold he would defeat the darkest Dark Lord of their age. And somehow, he had—without him remembering.

    But just before he left for Hogwarts, his parents warned him about the Dark Lord's son, one he had left behind in a Muggle orphanage, never to get close—

    Harry didn't care. He befriended the prickly Slytherin, and now, a decade later, they had never been closer.

    They were best friends. Best friends who happened to fuck... best friends who knew how each other tasted.

    It was perfect—until it wasn't. Things went downhill when Ron and Hermione noticed Tom's gift, and suggested, that it looked like... a proposal.

    That wasn't right. Lots of friends sleep together, right? Tell the other how good they felt, how amazingly they sucked...

    Oh. Oh, fuck.

    Summary

    "Love and death are the great hinges on which all human sympathies turn. What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others lives beyond us."

    Will confesses everything when he calls to warn Hannibal, Hannibal's resolve wavers enough for him to make a fateful choice, and Abigail is once again caught up in the storm.

    Almost nothing goes as planned — and yet, just like one of Hannibal's teacups, everything comes back together in the end.

    * * *

    An alternate course of events for "Mizumono," as narrated by Abigail Hobbs.

    Summary

    "You're a psychiatrist," Will says. "Between your personal and professional lives you must have met thousands of people, you must know dozens of different flavors of pathology. Do you know anyone who would take me as I am? Who would be able to love me," he gestures in a sweeping motion, from his messy hair to his stained knee, "just as I am?"

    "I do."

    Bedelia's words shock Will into stillness.

    “Really?”

    AKA an AU where Bedelia is Will’s psychiatrist instead of Hannibal, Will makes a series of increasingly questionable life choices, and no one should ever take Bedelia’s advice. Ever.
