    Summary

    "San Lang doesn't remember me."

    Mu Qing appears to take this in and then shrugs. "Kill him."

    "Mu Qing," Xie Lian says, very patiently. "He's my husband."

    "All the more reason, if you ask me."

    OR: obligatory amnesia au ft. married hualian, their cats, and potentially a magical curse or two

    Summary

    “I’m home, San Lang,” Xie Lian greeted with a tired smile. “Sorry again that I ended up being gone for so long. I really thought it would only take a day to deal with it all. Mu Qing even ended up calling down additional officials to help us speed things up.”

    Xie Lian yawned, striding around the corner of Hua Cheng’s throne-like seat and lightly plopping down in his lap, snaking his arms around his neck and nuzzling his nose into the soft and cool skin of his throat. He felt Hua Cheng tense under him, his arms hovering around his torso for a couple of seconds before he started to relax. Hua Cheng’s arms slowly enveloped him, his hold becoming more and more secure as Xie Lian continued to nuzzle his neck.

    “I’m just glad to finally be home…” Xie Lian mumbled, giving in to another yawn and closing his eyes. As Xie Lian’s breathing evened out, Hua Cheng was left with only one possible conclusion. That this must all be one extremely detailed, extremely evil, and extremely happy dream…

    Or, Xie Lian unwittingly gets hit by a time travelling spell while fighting demons and is sent back to a time where he and Hua Cheng have yet to reunite.

    Summary

    Xie Lian was not upset about what he lost. He swore up and down that he didn’t mind being immortal, ashes wrapped around his neck. Not a god anymore. Not really. So, Xie Lian made a home on a mountain, plagued with white flowers that sprouted from his blood and his footsteps, twisting along every pathway. Another ghost came to live with him, between the flowers and the trees and winding river Xie Lian kept thinking of drowning in. He said his name was San Lang. It wasn’t. It was actually Hua Cheng, but Xie Lian didn’t know how to bring that up. It wasn’t as important as everything else—gardens, flowers, silver butterflies, and sorting out his dreams from his perilous reality. Hua Cheng made space, and Xie Lian let him.

    Dead god, very dead follower. It was almost funny.

    He wasn’t sure what to do, seeing as he didn't plan to ascend once more, or plan to hold power over a kingdom again. Xie Lian wasn’t staying forever. The mountain would open up, and he would leave to become something catastrophic. Or he would finally disperse. Who was he to say?

    (or: xie lian dies, becomes a calamity, ascends to the heavens against his wishes, and finally makes his life flourish between his thumbs and a ghost’s smile.)

    Summary

    This is the sequel to "Paper Memories (Part One)." This is Part Two of Two.
    Part Two is about Faith and Forgiveness.

    Xie Lian has found himself in a rather unusual and dire situation.

    Not only does he have two amnesiac ghost kings cooped up in his shrine, but Hua Cheng has mysteriously regressed into the form of a child. While Xie Lian is determined to return his Beloved's memories, he also has the help of Shi Qingxuan who is equally driven to restore and confront the person he once considered his best friend. It will be up to the two of them to track down the powerful memory-eating steam spirit who has done this, and with any luck, find a way to return all that has been stolen away by her. This includes Xie Lian’s own lost memories. What could have driven him to nearly commit genocide?
