    Summary

    Despite what Jiang Wanyin and his Sect had done, despite everything, baba never once cursed them as they did the Yiling Patriarch's name. Mourn as baba did for Sizhui's family, for the family that had become baba's own in all but name, never once did he look upon the cultivation world in vengeance. Instead, every breath, every shred of life in baba's failing body had been dedicated to keeping Sizhui safe, fed and loved, as if the slightest speck of grudge towards the world would have tainted his own boundless love towards Sizhui.

    But Sizhui is alone in the world now, and he is not his baba - No one else is like baba, and Sizhui supposes that was what had sealed his father's fate, in a world where one is demanded to serve mere ideas of righteousness and honor rather than the people.

    And so upon seeing the purple robes amidst the crowd, Wei Sizhui decides that perhaps it would not hurt to start his path of vengeance a little closer to home.

    Summary

    Pathologically solitary academic Chu Wanning left behind a life of research to enlist with the Pan-Pacific Defense Corps Jaeger team when giant monsters began to emerge from the Pacific ocean, eager to leave his personal entanglements behind him and join humanity's collective battle against the threat of extinction.

    His goal is to build an artificial intelligence that will allow a pilot to operate a Jaeger mech solo - eliminating the need for pilot compatibility and the mortifying ordeal of being totally known by another person, a "neurological handshake" known colloquially as the drift.

    He didn't expect his former students to follow him all the way to front line of the war against the kaiju.

    Featuring lots of side character interaction, pining, yearning, questions on the nature of personhood, friendship between jerks, people coping badly with loss, snarky AI, and giant robots. Illustrations by Saika & Daru

    Summary

    It takes him a couple months to realize that he's popular even beyond his small circle. That people whisper about him on campus because they find him handsome. That they don't suspect anything at all—he's just a pretty boy they can admire, giggle over, crush on.

    It's heady, this victory.

    And it's easier, after that, to sink into the burgeoning love he has for his own body. This body that he has so carefully shaped: surgery; hormone therapy; late night or early morning gym sessions to get some muscle definition, sneaking swims in the school pool after hours so no one would see the scars on his chest; hours of following vocal lessons online to change his voice; hours practicing how to walk, how to carry himself, how to blend in with his cis peers. He carved Zhang Hao into existence piece by bloody piece and he's proud of who he's become.

    Or: It has been a long, difficult road from a quiet house in Fujian to arena stages in Seoul. Now, Zhang Hao struggles to balance idol life with secrets that he has kept buried for years, and then there is this love for Sung Hanbin that just won't die.

    Summary

    Yuanxiao Festival was one of Zhou Zishu’s least favourite times of the year. It wasn’t the problem of thousands of lanterns clogging up the streets and rooftops of the Imperial City, making it more challenging to conduct Tian Chuang business. It wasn’t the throngs of people who packed into the Imperial City from beyond to enjoy the spectacle, or the increased risk of a fire hazard, or the thousands of perfectly edible mandarin oranges being thrown into the river. It wasn’t the fact that Tian Chuang business often ground to a halt during the lunar new year period, leaving Zishu at loose ends. It was all of that, all at once.

    Summary

    Yoo Joonghyuk takes a careful step towards the tail. A thick, bushy, pale red tail that swishes from side to side across the floor. Its tip is a bright white, a stark contrast against the laminated brown tiles. The tail moves intermittently, like its owner is particularly intrigued by something.

    He steps close enough to reach out for the fluffy tail, and conjures a glass box. 

    Without much sympathy, Yoo Joonghyuk closes the box over the surprised fox and traps it on the spot.

    “Yip!” The fox scrabbles at the glass box, its claws working uselessly against the transparent surface. It does a quick circle, testing all four sides with equal vigour, making these small upset noises as it struggles to escape.

    Yoo Joonghyuk feels a little bad. Then, he recalls how the fox is pretty much a home intruder, and discards the pity like an old newspaper.
