    Day 2: Virtue-Temperance; Sin-Envy

    Summary

    “Just, gimme a sec…”

    Dan Heng caresses her cheek. “As long as you need.”

    Stelle snickers weakly. “What… what if I made you wait an hour for fun?”

    “Then I’d wait an hour,” Dan Heng answers with zero hesitation, petting her face.

    Her eyes widen. “You really do love me, huh?” she says, in awe.

    Dan Heng wants to reply with something like ‘duh’, but he can’t really bring himself to tease her now. “More than anything,” is what he settles on.

    Dan Heng and Stelle’s emotional first time in excruciating detail.

    Summary

    “For otherworlders, it is better not to date a long-life species—especially the Xianzhou natives, as you will likely get hurt. We might have a youthful look, but our soul has aged. Once we have loved, our hearts will not flutter for anyone again.”

    Stelle, forced to submit documents against her will, made it to the Seat of Divine Foresight. As she dropped the papers on his desk, her eyes settled on a particular golden pocket watch. Similar to the one she had.

    Its time was frozen—perhaps broken. However, that wasn’t what caught her attention.

    There was a photograph within it, a person eerily similar to her. Same hair length. Same facial features. Same smile.

    There were engravings on the back of the artifact, dating back to five hundred years ago.

    Summary

    It was a brilliant plan, all things considered.

    On paper and in the eyes of the public, they were a charming if oddly mismatched couple who somehow found love despite their differences. A fairy tale come to life, sighed the more romantic members of Ba Sing Se society.

    So it was almost a shame that Katara's courtship with Prince Zuko was ultimately nothing more than an act - otherwise, they might have been a perfect match, if not the perfect partners in crime.

    ~*~*~

    Written for Zutara Month 2022 and shamelessly influenced by both Pride and Prejudice and Bridgerton.

    Sometimes you forget that they are demons, but they’re here to remind you that their conception of morality isn’t the same as yours.

    Summary

    There are times when we fulfill our destiny, and there are times when we are meant for a purpose we do not want to reach for. She found herself in darkness, and told that none of it was her fault, but she would suffer the consequences of choices that she never made, and things that were written in blood and stars before she was born.

    Mona found herself stolen, dragged to Devildom, and then purchased. Demons, at their core, are not nice creatures. They are not here for the kindness of humans. They enjoy the taste of human flesh and souls, and fear seasons the meat. There are a few humans that are used as pets. And who should acquire Mona but Lucifer?
