    Summary

    Each entry is complete and exists (mostly) independent of each other.
    You can download volume one through four here
    This series is:
    - Not Team Cap friendly.
    - Has no particular order because besides having the Post-CW timeline in common, none of them are actually (intentionally) connected at the time of their posting
    - Uses headcanons some of which are mentioned in the beginning of the fic or simply tagged
    Please note:
    - I'm socially inept but I have recently started replying to comments
    Come hang out in my fort

    Summary

    Most of these stories stand alone (ie you don't need to read any other to understand one), but they are all set in the same alternate universe.

    I have ordered them in order of when in the timeline the majority of the work is set. Rites is set by far the earliest, before Zhuge Liang even meets Liu Bei. The other one shots and short series cover periods that overlap in many cases, but all ending before the events of Clouds and Rain.

    Please heed warnings, especially for Covering Your Ears to Steal a Bell. Just because you enjoyed the other works in the series does not mean you will enjoy that one, because it is very dark. Please take care of yourself.

    Summary

    Summer break, two years after graduating high school. Will and Mike almost kiss, and everything changes. They find themselves on a journey together after a mysterious clue. They have no choice but to finally confront what’s been going on between them for years.
     

    “I keep showing up,” Mike says. His voice doesn’t break, but he feels like it should. “Even when you try to throw me away.”
    Will flinches, and Mike hates himself for it immediately.
    “I didn’t- ” Will says, and his eyes drop. “I didn’t throw you away.”
    Mike’s mouth twitches. Not a smile. Something sadder. “You threw the letters away.”

      Bookmark Notes:

      Well, wow.
      I've been walking around thinking about this fic for a couple of days now. Finally, I was able to gather my thoughts and write a review, aheha
      My friend doesn't know anything about Stranger Things at all, but I yapped to her about this fanfiction anyway AHAHD
      I don't even know where to start... An amazing story? Mike and Will's perfectly written relationship? Perfect character designs? Tension and emotionality? A stunning plot twist? ROAD TRIP AU, AFTER ALL??
      I have no words to describe how beautifully the text is written. Your writing style sunk so deeply into my soul that I wrote out whole paragraphs in my note with quotes :,3
      I am delighted with Mike, who is emotionally fragile, who goes to a therapist, overthings constantly, fears being weak and unneeded, and struggles to understand his feelings :(
      And I love the more confident, flirtatious Will just as much, who incredibly desires reciprocity, love, and being seen. For how many years he's been trying to suppress his feelings for Mike and "move on," it hurts so much...
      They feel so grown up here 😭💔
      I'm afraid to start discussing Mike and Will's relationship in this fic in more detail because I WON'T SHUT UPPP
      When reading, I felt the full range of human emotions. Everything inside me was shrinking, as if I had experienced everything myself.
      And in fact, I believed that the story with El would turn out to be true, and they would really find her :( The plot twist really impressed me, but also I was so saaad, because that means that El is truly dead and there's no hope...
      I can't help but mention the road trip au, because it took me back to the days when I was reading "Running On Air" by eleventy7 :,D Since then, my love for this trope is incredibly strong, which is why I was attracted to your work. It's just that road trip aus are always something personal and intimate, marked by lengthy heart-to-heart talks, enjoyable silence, or suffocating reluctance to speak. And I really needed this kind of work, where Mike and Will discuss all the accumulated feelings and experiences in private for a long time and honestly. And it's like there's no one else in the world but them.
      I still have so much to say and I definitely forgot to mention something, but it's the middle of the night, I've been writing this review for about an hour, and I'm falling asleep. So I just want to thank you for your hard work, this fic is forever in my heart :,3
      P.S. Oh, and yes, I'm crazy when Will calls Mike "Michael" too

    Summary

    Durin has learnt a lot about "courting" and "romance" from observing humans. He still doesn't really understand much, but according to his observations, he definitely thinks there's something "going on" between Albedo and Wanderer. Durin decides it's up to him to do something about it, and begins his great undertaking of a certain task he's heard of: the art of "match making".

    Albedo was speechless for a moment before finally speaking up. “Durin,” he asked nicely, “just how many people did you ask about this?”

    Wanderer watched with apprehension as Durin mentally counted on his fingers, distinctly feeling the physical sensation of a rock dropping into his stomach, as Durin’s two hands ran out of fingers and he had to start fresh on his left hand once again.

    “You know what? Don’t answer that. Don’t answer that question.” Wanderer snapped.

    Summary

    Wei Wuxian mused sullenly while sipping his wine. He didn’t even notice Jiang Cheng spinning the bottle again until it was stopping, pointed at Wei Wuxian himself and indicating Nie Huaisang should be the one asking the question.

    Ah, shit. Here we go again, he winced internally as his friend asked whether he’d like truth or dare. The dares had been working just fine for me. If I stick to them and choose truth only sporadically to throw them off, it’ll be alright.

    “Dare! Let’s go!”

    Nie Huaisang didn’t miss a beat.

    “I dare you to kiss Lan-er-gongzi”

    Wei Wuxian gaped. He was only faintly aware of Jiang Cheng spitting out a mouthful of his drink somewhere to his left.

    Nie Huaisang grinned.

    On the mouth ”, he clarified.

     

    (Or: Wei Wuxian, Nie Huaisang and Jiang Cheng play truth or dare in the Cloud Recesses.)

    This fic has a Russian translation!

    Summary

    All works that follow danny as selina and Bruce's son on his adventures through gotham. Past selina and Bruce for the majority, there is some direct interaction where they are like bitter ex fighting over the kids. Selina/harley/pam is the main ship (still background) for most of it. But I want to have it end in a complicated poly-polgamy with selina getting her cake and eating it too. if the shipping is a big focus for you. The story focuses more on the kids than the adults. Danny centric.

    Summary

    Lo'ak has never felt the need to card his hands through Aonung's soaked hair like what Neteyam is doing right now. Or to tug at his ears. Or to caress the back of his neck. His eyes are shimmered with an expression that awfully reminds Lo'ak of the times Tsireya first looked at him in their private moments.

    And then the realization suddenly dawns on him. It smacks into his brain like the first time he tried to ride an ilu and it slammed his body back into the water.

    --

    Lo'ak attempts to get Neteyam and Aonung together and drags everyone else into the process.

    Summary

    You lost track of the days that you were in love with Kita. He was so much more than just the team mom that many outsiders dubbed him as. He was the wielder of cold-logic and held the bluntest of words at times, but he showed his own special brand of care for each member of the team. What you hadn’t expected was for him to especially care about you.

    Summary

    The billionaire suddenly held out an expectant upturned hand, and after a moment of confusion Clark hesitantly and gently placed his own atop the billionaire’s for an incredibly awkward handshake.
    Clark may be a writer, but he couldn’t possibly conjure words to describe the puzzled amusement on Wayne’s face. “I was expecting a business card.”
    “OH!” Clark flushed as he hastily pulled out the Daily Planet business card, then scrawled his name and phone number on the back.
    The playboy’s eyes still sparkled with amusement as he took the card and slipped it into a pocket in his vest. “I’ll consider your offer.”
