    Summary

    The warmth of the Sun. The coolness of the Sea. On the tips of his fingers, in the wind brushing against his hair, in the ground beneath his feet—Jesse, though blind, feels all of this love deep down, and wonders, briefly, if this is what people call 'light.'

    (In which no amount of adoration from the Almighty God will give Jesse back the ability to see—until one day he meets an Imperial Prince and the beloved daughter of a Duke, and suddenly nothing could have been clearer.)

    (Blind Jesse AU.)

    Summary

    Before a traveler arrives, amidst a war of pride between Snezhnaya and Mondstadt, the famous Chief Alchemist gets captured by the Fatui, and they give him one simple instruction: as long as you play the piano, you will live; once you stop playing, you are to be executed.
     
    What follows are hours filled with music that keeps The Balladeer, out of all harbingers, coming back. At first trying to make Albedo fail, then just… keeping him company. Until the last note is played.

    If anything could resolve his guilt, it would be knowing that the other man resented him. However, Albedo, the kindest man he’d ever met, wasn’t going to do that.

    Summary

    Shane is stooped over to strap on his shin guards when his phone buzzes once in Hayden’s hand.

    He doesn’t mean to tap the notification.

    And oh god, does he wish he could un-tap the fucking notification.

    Because why the fuck has Lily, Shane’s mysterious Boston hook-up of several years (no matter how fervently he denies it), sent him a picture of a fucking sonogram.

    Black and white, blurry, and undeniably baby-shaped.

    Ilya makes a joke, Hayden breaks Shane’s phone, and a comedy of errors ensues.
