Summary
There is a lingering charge in the air around him. As if the land is trying to shift itself back together, to rejoin and recollect the lost pieces of itself, wanting nothing more than to be whole. The land's desire is reflected in its people. Families are reconciled, lovers cling to each other and brothers return to arms once again. There is a desperation in their tears, a fear for the future and yet, Diluc can see the joy of completion that returning to those they loved had brought them. He turns on.
Written for the lovely "A Bridge Rebuilt: A Ragbros Zine"! Check it out here https://abridgerebuiltzine.carrd.co/

Summary
Father, can you tell me how to reconcile myself to the fact that my soul will always carry a seething sort of sadness in me? Can you tell me how to reconcile myself to loving the darkness who had loved me when I had not understood how to be loveable, when I had not mastered the strings for my puppet show performance of a life.
Or: Kaeya cannot seem to forget his first father. So he writes him a letter.

Summary
I was never made for honest smiles and freeing winds, and if my own self imposed exile is what will preserve this city that has given me everything I have ever wished for and nothing I have deserved then so be it. If I had to rip my beating heart from the chest to keep this city standing, Irminsul below, I would.#
If Mondstadt was his sun, then this journey was the ever-winter of its absence. Kaeya had never been scared of the cold but he had feared the dark more than he’d cared to admit. With darkness came vulnerability and with vulnerability came the cold tendrils of the abyss that would corrupt his soul to a point of no return. Mondstadt had been his saving grace and leaving would damn him.
or,,, corruption runs through the descendants of the fallen. kaeya and albedo could not escape this fate.

Summary
“Glad to see you back among the living,” Phainon says through a yawn, clearly having spent the night in the uncomfortable chair in the infirmary by Mydei’s side. Like he often does.
Mydei’s head hurts. Just the regular kind of pain, easily managed by ignoring it until it goes away. But what makes it worse, is the confusion at his predicament. The memories returning to him in death used to vary in time and people who appeared in them. Why is it always Phainon nowadays?
“Fuck you,” Mydei says, hoarsely. He feels like he is losing his mind.
Phainon’s mouth locks mid-yawn and he blinks down at him stupidly, tilting his head with confusion. It’s probably fair, he hasn’t even done anything to earn Mydei’s ire as of late.
or; Human brain lives for a few more minutes after dying, replaying the most cherished memories. Mydei starts seeing Phainon after each of his deaths.

Summary
“Well,” is what Aglaea says at last. “This is certainly… a predicament.”
Her voice is as unreadable as ever, so it could mean anything from this is manageable to this is a disaster the likes of which the Flame-Chase Journey will never recover from. As things stand, Mydei is more inclined to believe the latter.
Beside them, Tribbie finally pops up from where she’s been studying their joined hands. “What Snowy said is true!” she proclaims in a voice far too cheerful for their current situation. “He and De are one hundred percent stuck to each other.”
While out on patrol, Mydei and Phainon get hit with a curse that binds their hands together.

Summary
"After a while, the pup associates obedience with positive outcomes, which leads to a repetition in wanted behavior," Mydei continues. "The click must only be pressed after compliance, not a moment before."
Phainon blinks as she watches Mydei say, hand. The puppy reaches her paw out, placing it on Mydei's palm. Click. A treat, a murmur of praise. Good, good, good.
"Sit up," Mydei demands. Phainon doesn't even recognize what she's doing until seconds later; tomato-faced at the dawning realization that she'd straightened her own spine, slightly, at Mydei's words. A flutter in her chest when that click sounds, and Mydei coos, "Good puppy."
And, well, Phainon is ridiculously, profoundly, severely fucked.
Phainon has been dropping by the pet shelter Mydei volunteers at often, and seems to have discovered something new about herself along the way.

Summary
Wei Wuxian jolts. That was a suck. That was a proper, hard suck. It even made a sound and that sound is what makes Lan Zhan himself startle and pull his mouth off. A little bit of his drool drips down his lower lip, which he quickly swipes away with his tongue. Wei Wuxian’s fingers feel cold, now that they are out of Lan Zhan’s warm mouth and coated in saliva.
“I–” begins Lan Zhan. He looks embarrassed but… not quite as restless as always. His body seems to have softened and relaxed a little. Did sucking Wei Wuxian’s fingers actually help him? Wei Wuxian stares at him in sheer astonishment.
“Lan Zhan,” he says. He licks his own lips, eyes still trained on Lan Zhan’s lips as he brings his hand down. “I have an idea.”
Newly turned werewolf Lan Wangji shows up at Wei Wuxian's doorstep. Wei Wuxian can help Lan Wangji come to terms with his new biology. (He can also help Lan Wangji with his oral fixation.)
