    Summary

    What if the shikon jewel didn’t exist and Naraku never came to be? What if Kagome fell down the well anyway and met a gruff, young inu-hanyou. Would they still become friends? What would be their story?

    A tale told in snippets.

    She wakes before the lights. Serves without question. Pleases without feeling. That’s how it’s always been, until it wasn't.

    Summary

    Once, Kagome had believed her grandfather was just an eccentric. A priest who, after long days of ritual and spellwork and dealing with politics and problems and the complexities of the Great City, liked to amuse himself by telling outlandish stories about the gods. Once he is killed, in a brutal and baffling way, she is left with no choice but to hope that at least one of his wild tales was actually true.

    Could there really be a god dwelling among them? And, if there is, what else might be out there, waiting in the shadows?

    Summary

    Maomao is a med school drop out, working at the Verdigris strip club where she also runs a free illegal clinic to help those who can't afford medical care. One night she treats Gyokuyou - fiance to a rich business man and suddenly she finds herself drawn into the world of the upper class.

    An alternate modern setting where Jinshi and Maomao meet under different - but slightly similar - circumstances and their feelings develop all the same.

    --

    I don't normally write AUs but I could not for the life of me get this concept out of my head. Please enjoy another pointless fluff, slowburn for our favorite JinMao <3

    Summary

    There's an odd girl at the back of the throng.

    To the casual eye, she looks completely average. She wears the same soft cream and dull yellow uniform of the other girls around her. She is small and slight, and her cheeks are dotted with freckles. Among the other palace girls surrounding her, she blends in perfectly. She could be any girl from any far-flung village of Li.

    But her eyes—they are what catch his attention. They are what draw him in.

    Or: Snapshots of Jinshi and Maomao, throughout the years--of their scars, their mistakes, and a little red string that endures through it all. An exploration of love, fate, and the choices we make, told in twenty-six parts.
