Summary
A modern OC arrives in Yiling before the start of the Sunshot Campaign. She has no friends, no money, and no cultivation. She knows what's coming, but what could she possibly do about it?
***
“Well…” I looked down at my fingernails and tried not to squirm. “If there were a way to separate Wei Wuxian from Madam Yu without ruining his relationship with his siblings, I’d encourage it. Like, as an example, marriage.”Xichen blinked. “To you?”
“No. Absolutely not. What even—?” The thought was so abhorrent I couldn’t hold it in my head. My brain spat it right back out. “To your brother.”
Xichen blinked. Again. “To Wangji?”
“Obviously?”
“This is a concern of yours?”
“I realize it’s not my business at all,” I admitted. “But you asked.”

Summary
Wei Wuxian is going to be offered to the Emperor Lan Wangji as a marriage prospect at the end of the Jiang sect's visit to the palace. He's not worried - the Emperor always says no to every offer. But he is bored, sitting around and waiting until the day of the ceremony so they can get it over with and go home.
While he is exploring the palace, he coincidentally meets a beautiful man called Lan Zhan, who he loves to tease. These things may be related.

Summary
Lan Xichen pauses before he speaks. He often does. “A-Yao, will you…?”
There are any number of things that Lan Xichen might be about to say. He might be about to say, “A-Yao, will you cook breakfast while I bathe in the river?” But then, there is a gravity to his tone, and a flush on his cheeks. So perhaps it will be, “A-Yao, will you do that thing with your tongue?” Or even more thrillingly, “A-Yao, will you teach me how to do that thing with your tongue?”
Lan Xichen does not say any of these things. He says, “A-Yao, will you marry me? If we both survive the war, will you marry me?”
.
Lan Xichen proposes before the war. Somehow, through the property of transitivity, Wei Wuxian becomes Meng Yao’s problem to solve.

Lan Wangji thinks this is how he will finally get his Wei Ying back, free from demonic influences. Wei Wuxian thinks this is a fancy way of saying "execution."

Summary
"The child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth" - African proverb
Aemond told himself that he was fine. Handsome, well educated, a young lawyer at the most prestigious law firm in NYC. He had everything he needed. It didn't matter that his entire family had shunned him since shortly after he lost his eye, blaming him for the horrific aftermath. He was fine...until his brother Aegon came back into his life, pleading for help after being arrested on a drug charge.
As the brothers rekindle and begin to fall in love, Aegon slowly starts trying to pull Aemond back into the family. But not everyone is willing to welcome him back, and soon, the entire family is thrown into turmoil from which it can never recover.

K'diwa: A Steamy Novel of Interspecies Romance, by Jim Kirk by branwyn

Tags
Summary
Jim wrote a romance novel just to prove he could. Then someone leaked it on the public Starfleet server, and suddenly his embarrassingly smutty and sentimental Human/Vulcan love story is all over campus. Luckily for Jim, no one knows that he’s the author. Unluckily for Jim, someone forwarded the novel to the staff of the Vulcan embassy. Now, every Vulcan in San Francisco is reassessing the logical merits of taking Human bondmates.
Spock reads a Human/Vulcan romance novel because he can hardly avoid it. Suddenly, he is consumed by the need to locate the author, ascertain their wellbeing, and instruct them in the way of Vulcan mating bonds. Luckily for Spock, it doesn't take long to identify the author as Jim Kirk. Unluckily for Spock, Jim is unconscious and surrounded by interested Vulcans who also read the book.

[The fix-it fic where Nerdanel, Anairë and Eärwen sneak out of Aman to steal some Silmarils because wars don't always need to be won by armies.]

Summary
"My love, look at me."
And she does, if not by his command, then by instinct.
"Smile for me, will you? Can you do that for me?"
And she does precisely as commanded, her lips turning upward and raising to reveal two sharp teeth— and nothing more. It's uncanny and revolting and wrong. There is nothing behind her eyes, nothing at all. No light, no life, and certainly no love.
There must be a way to undo this. To save her. To bring her back to him. There must be.
He would give anything to see her smile again. Truly smile.
