    Summary

    “I’m in the middle of training,” Liu Qingge says in a clipped tone.

    “That’s all right,” Shen Qingqiu says, flicking his fan in the air. “Go train, I’ll wait.”

    Liu Qingge stares at him. “Wait?”

    “Until you’re done, of course,” Shen Qingqiu says, as if it’s the most obvious thing. “I’ll find us some tea.”

    Liu Qingge could have told Shen Qingqiu that his training would last all day. He could have informed him, brusquely, without care, that he dislikes having his rituals interrupted, that Shen Qingqiu would be waiting for the sun to cease its rise and fall, the mountains around them to crumble and fade.

    Instead, he lets out a rush of air through his nose. “Fine. I will join you when I’m done.”

    Shen Qingqiu’s face lights up, soft and pleased.


    In which Liu Qingge's rituals are interrupted by Shen Qingqiu, and he learns that he doesn't mind that one bit.

    Summary

    The boy stands with his back straight and his face stern, looking very much like a little adult. His eyes roam the store, taking in the clothes and fabrics on display, ponytail swaying with the turn of his head. His own clothes are neat and clean and not at all wrinkled the way Shen Yuan’s is, and Shen Yuan can’t help but stare at him in wonder from behind his mother’s robes.


    Or, Liushen royalty au, in which Liu Qingge, son of the emperor, and Shen Yuan, son of a seamstress, meet and grow up together as childhood friends. Only, Shen Yuan has no clue who Liu Qingge really is.

    Summary

    It can’t be possible, it can’t be true. And yet, it is. It feels like he’s trapped in a nightmare, but he won’t ever wake from it.

     

    Liu Qingge grits his teeth, because it is the An Ding Peak Lord, Shang Qinghua, who has won the hand of Shen Qingqiu.

    Summary

    He startles, glancing around. Wei Wuxian had just been right beside him. They hadn’t been speaking, after Wei Wuxian’s few abortive attempts at making conversation. Because Jiang Cheng hadn’t wanted to speak to him. He never wants to speak to him, ever again, because walking alongside Wei Wuxian, being on a night hunt with him— it’s too much. Even if he no longer wants Wei Wuxian dead, how can participate in these farces? How can he get so close to the thing he wants, only to remember he’ll never have it? He can’t let Wei Wuxian make casual conversation. He can’t allow him to weasel his way back into Jiang Cheng’s good graces, his heart. Because Jiang Cheng won’t survive it. He knows this very well.

    What starts as a simple competition during a night hunt quickly spirals out of control, leaving Jiang Cheng to confront his fears, his feelings, his inadequacies, and Wei Wuxian.
