    Summary

    Xie Lian was not upset about what he lost. He swore, up and down, he didn’t mind being immortal, ashes wrapped around his neck. Not a god anymore. Not really. So, Xie Lian made a home on a mountain, plagued with white flowers, sprouting from his blood and his footsteps, twisting along every pathway. Another ghost came to live with him, between the flowers and the trees and winding river Xie Lian kept thinking of drowning in. He said his name was San Lang. It wasn’t. It was actually Hua Cheng, but Xie Lian didn’t know how to bring that up. It wasn’t as important as everything else—gardens, flowers, silver butterflies, and sorting out his dreams from his perilous reality. Hua Cheng made space, and Xie Lian let him.

    Dead god, very dead follower. It was almost funny.

    He wasn’t sure what to do, seeing as he did not plan to ascend again, did not plan to ever hold power over a kingdom. Xie Lian wasn’t staying forever. The mountain would open up, and he would leave to become something catastrophic. Or he would finally die. Who was he to say?

    (or: xie lian dies, becomes a calamity, ascends to the heavens against his wishes, and finally makes his life flourish between his thumbs and a ghost’s smile.)

    Summary

    Invidia, Luxuria; Lust and Envy. These words are scrawled by a dead body left crucified above a seedy club in Tokyo's red light district.

    Aki and Angel are on the case; facing down a doomsday cult, a terrifying devil and (gasp) their feelings for each other.

    Summary

    Shen Yuan has been dealt a rough hand at the beginning of his life. Then he gets sort of adopted by Shen Qingqiu, who desperately needs someone to help smooth out his interpersonal relationships. Thankfully, Shen Yuan is awesome at understanding people and what they want!

    Shen Qingqiu can't decide if he regrets claiming this chaos gremlin as his own or not, but now that Shen Yuan is here, he's never letting him go. He'll have to be pried out of Shen Qingqiu's cold, dead fingers first.

    Meanwhile, Luo Binghe is just caught up in the wake of both of them and trying not to be dragged under.

    (Or, a drama of errors with comedic moments, exploring the growing relationship between an unforgiving misanthrope with serious issues and a traumatized kid that just wants to teach him what family means (and maybe learn it, himself))
