    Summary

    Wei Ying has a case of writer's block, so his friend Nie Huaisang offers up his brother's cabin for two weeks in late winter-- forgetting that time period coincides with the annual Gusu Kink Expo.

    Lan Wangji has been looking forward to his annual kink vacation, but when Nie Huaisang calls and requests he babysit his nextdoor neighbor for the next two weeks, he can't help but feel annoyed. It's never a good idea to disappoint Nie Huaisang, so he reluctantly agrees.

    Summary

    Wei Ying falls in love with the idea of a man and it is all he needs: a comfortable life in his head he can escape to when life grows too dull or too stressful. He could have this fantasy forever, as long as he keeps it all in his head.

    The fantasy has other ideas.

    Summary

    All in all, the escape from their alien kidnappers plan had been going off pretty well until the ship malfunctioned. Not Wei Wuxian’s fault, he promised. Just one of those fate is a bitch things. One moment he was snapping the neck of their second guard, the next the spaceship was crashing onto… a planet. A fucking cold planet, if the snow visible through a hole in the top side hull was any indication.

    Yeah… so they were going to die.

    “We’re going to die!” one of the girls moaned, her voice high and screechy and when Wen Qing suggested someone go and scout the land, see if they lucked out and landed in Canada or if there were any local aliens—friendly or otherwise—Wei Wuxian was glad to volunteer, just so he could get away from her screams.

    Summary

    "I’m Wei Ying, nice to meet you.”

    Lan Zhan stares at the hand being offered, brain still trying to process the hurricane of a person in front of him.

    “Lan Zhan,” he replies, and shakes the hand once, politely. “Is this your seat?”

    or, sometimes a chance meeting on a train and twenty four hours together are enough for two people to fall in love.

    Summary

    Something smells so good. Wei Ying closes his eyes, already feeling sleepy, and tries to identify where the scent is coming from. He turns his face to one side and then the other, chasing it, until his nose touches Lan Zhan’s cheek.

    He pulls back quickly, not freaking out, because it’s fine. He touched Lan Zhan’s cheek with his nose, and Lan Zhan smells really fucking good, and they’re lying down together on a very soft bed because Lan Zhan is too drunk to let go of him, and Lan Zhan is gay but Wei Ying isn’t, and it’s fine.

    Wei Ying swallows hard and closes his eyes again.

    -

    Wei Ying helps Lan Zhan out of an uncomfortable situation, and they grow close right away, becoming instant friends. To Lan Zhan, they become instant something else. With time, they only get closer and closer, and Wei Ying is forced to deal with his own feelings about Lan Zhan, and his perception of his own sexuality.

    Summary

    Lan Zhan doesn’t think about him anymore.

    The days when he would obsess over every tiny work Wei Ying appeared in are long gone. His days of buying every magazine he was in, of taping his interviews and watching them over and over again just to get a piece of the real him, they’re all over. Lan Zhan doesn’t follow every project Wei Ying is a part of anymore, doesn’t try to find out if Wei Ying ever mentioned him anywhere, and doesn’t keep the TV on just in case he hears Wei Ying’s voice in a new commercial.

    He has weeks, and even months, when Wei Ying doesn’t even cross his mind at all. And when he does, it is only with a faded kind of fondness, a simmering affection to the memories they shared together.

    He’s happy for the things Wei Ying achieved. There is almost no hurt at all, almost no pain. And almost must be just as good as none.

    -

    Lan Zhan's world is turned upside down when his High School love, famous actor Wei Wuxian, comes back to their hometown after 13 years.

    Summary

    A new job brings Wei Ying to London, and back into Lan Zhan's life. Many things have changed since their time in boarding school (Lan Zhan is out of the closet, arranges charcuterie boards, stocks a fine bar…), but their friendship slots right back into place like no time has passed. Wei Ying is a little perplexed by the fact that Lan Zhan apparently doesn't have any interest in dating anyone despite being an obvious catch—but hey, at least that means he doesn't have to fight anyone for Lan Zhan's time and attention. And besides, it's not like Wei Ying is in any big rush to find himself a girlfriend either. It’s all working out great!

    Summary

    Wei Ying covers his mouth, eyes wide and tearful, then turns and runs back towards the subway station where the expensive-coat man has disappeared to. He hopes he hasn’t caught his train yet as he runs, giggles bursting out from his chest.

    As he enters the station, he glances around and immediately spots the back of the expensive-coat man. He’s waiting patiently among a group of passengers getting on a train. Wei Ying rushes forward and just barely manages to slip the man's wallet into the opposite coat pocket than it was retrieved from. The doors close behind the man, Wei Ying’s hand barely grazing the doors as he pulls it back. The man looks down and pulls his wallet from his pocket, looking confused. He turns, then, golden eyes meeting silver.

    Wei Ying’s breath catches. He’s the most beautiful man he’s ever seen. Long, curling lashes framing piercing golden eyes. Pale skin as white and smooth as jade. A sharp jawline leading towards a long neck featuring a prominent Adam's apple. His lips are plump and pink, and Wei Ying wonders what they’d feel like pressed against his own.

    Wei Ying grins at the man and mouths, “Just returning your stolen property! Be more careful of pickpockets!”

    Summary

    Which is why Wei Wuxian is severely annoyed that one the first day moving in, there's a translucent man staring out his bedroom window.
    "Are you kidding me?!" Wei Wuxian huffs, voice bouncing down the landing as he drops his bags with a thud at the top of the stairs.
    The man turns from where he's been staring through the dusty pane and looks directly at Wei Wuxian. Their gazes meet and the man's eyes widen like saucers.
    In a deep, disbelieving voice, he murmurs, "You can see me?"
    "Nope!" Wei Wuxian announces and turns around to march right back down the stairs.
    It’s stupid, really. The man is already waiting at the bottom of the staircase when Wei Wuxian gets there.
    Wei Wuxian stops dead, eyeing the spectre. The man's eyes narrow triumphantly.
    “You can see me," he states.
    Wei Wuxian turns around and marches back up the stairs. The man is already there at the top.
