    Summary

    Collection of stories about Jinshi and Maomao's journey through engagement, marriage, and parenthood - as individuals, as a couple, and eventually, as a little family.

    Lots of humor, fluff, smut, canon-typical violence, politics, and antics. Some angst, but nothing they can't manage. Most importantly, lots of love and learning how to share it.

    set post LN 14/15, largely canon compliant.

    Summary

    There are many worlds, many timelines, where Togame and Shichika fall for each other. And often, sometimes even because of this, one of them falls - into death.

    And then, occasionally, in a few - they don't.

    Summary

    Maomao’s up late studying, preparing to teach the concubines the next day, when Jinshi suddenly appears, presumably sent by the emperor himself to “verify” her expertise, what begins as a test of nerve and scholarly confidence quickly spirals into a heated, hands-on demonstration.

    Summary

    An exploration of the butterfly effect. What might have been if Lakan had been in the series a little earlier? In which Maomao gets family therapy, Joka gets everything she's ever wanted, Jinshi gets a hell of a lot more than he bargained for, and Lakan and the Emperor get grandchildren. Not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    He had always felt wrong growing up. Basen acted with emotions he didn’t understand or feel, ones adults tried to explain but never made sense. Perhaps it was why his desire for possession, his single minded obsession for what was his, was so strong. As if to compensate for those other feelings he lacked. Why when what was his was removed from him all that mattered was that he got it back or that it died so that no one else might steal it once more.

    It didn’t make him stupid however, he knew a man like him had no place on a jade throne if that meant he had to hide away as some sparkly flirty eunuch to ensure his brothers heir so be it. The emotions were non stop and constant among his flowers but to Zuigetsu, well Jinshi now, the only thing he felt day in and out was disgust.

    Until he saw her, a girl with same look in her eyes as him.

    That cloying nothing that wracked his heart held a hold on hers too. Until it didn’t, until he had decided she was now his, something he would wait for her to mirror even if it meant dealing with the obstinate fools that thought her lesser.

    He would make them all pay for every single slight, brushed shoulder, too long a gaze, and heaven forbid her tears too.

    Summary

    Rumi looks down. “Your soul,” she whispers mournfully, enraptured by the blue light trickling out of his chest. “It’s beautiful.”

    Jinu smiles.

    Gently, he presses his forehead against hers. Rumi jolts, eyes widening, but to his relief, she doesn’t pull away.

    “My soul,” he echoes softly. “It’s yours, now.”

    Rumi opens her mouth, but no words escape her as she gapes at him. A tear cascades down her cheek.

    “It’s mine to give, and yours to take, if you’ll have me.” His vision is blurring, and so he lets his eyes fall shut, allowing the darkness to encompass him. He forces himself to believe that the lull of sleep is accepted of his own volition.

    His cheeks tingle. Rumi is holding onto his face. “No, no, no—” she grits out. Her voice is growing distant. “Stop. You can’t do this to me.” The words rush out of her in a frenzy, full of haste and distress. “Jinu.”

    “Rumi,” he responds in a broken murmur. “Thank you.”

    She was right. Gwi-Ma could be defeated.

    He should have listened to her.

    (Or: A fix-it/time-travel au where Jinu goes back to the very beginning of the story and sets things right.)

    Summary

    One day, a man blithely offered to buy out a courtesan's contract. Desperate, that courtesan challenged him, and he proved his word to be true. But before they could be man and wife, there were trials still for them to face.

    One should be more careful with such things like promises.

    Or, the story of how two broken individuals found peace with one another.

    The water whispered over his fingers, light catching every iridescent scale. Maomao thought she knew myths—but Jinshi, the siren, was something far stranger, and far more alive.

    Summary

    The imperial dragons are a close-kept secret. Only a select few know of the mythical blood that flows through the royal family’s lineage, and even fewer know of the power it grants them in times of need.

    When Jinshi finds himself almost assassinated, he is forced to call on such power— but it leaves him delirious, bleeding, and terrifyingly vulnerable. So he flees to the one person he knows he can trust with his life more than anyone.

    Maomao, meanwhile, catches a weird snake outside her house.

    Edit: Now with art!

    Summary

    Maomao and Jinshi finally gotten their blessing and got married. Although they were married, they still acted the way they normally would. Sadly, Maomao got let go as a lady-in-waiting for Lady Gyokuyo. Maomao felt restless; all she could do was to find herbs and head to the quack, but then Jinshi would be on her tail and telling her off, and to take care of herself. To say the least, Maomao was bored to the core. Suiren only asked for help a few times, but not more, as she felt it would only be bothersome for Lady Maomao, as Suiren now called her.

    Summary

    Maomao frowned, an expression close to disgust now twisting her features. She saw his eyes light up at that, a mischievous grin tugging his lips, revealing sharp teeth.

    A chill ran down her spine at that and she shivered.

    ——————————

    Maomao had never imagined travelling far from the home she grew up in but when the opportunity presented itself in the wake of a tragedy, she couldn’t stay.

    Her new life starts off even weirder than she expected when she meets a beautiful half-human, half-fish creature.

    Life really is strange, indeed.

    Summary

    What if Suiren made soup today? Jinshi ponders, the sunset's swirling colors bringing to mind the image of broth. He inhales the sweet summer air as he passes by a small row of flowering bushes, almost sleepily content. I could go for something light… something for sleep would be nice too…

    He’s so caught up in his wistful thoughts, in fact, that he almost misses the tiny shadow darting past his feet.

    ———————

    Or, Maomao has a most interesting affliction, and Jinshi finds a stray cat. What's one more secret to keep?

    (Five times he bothers the local stray, and one time she bothers him back.)

    Summary

    "And here now is the problem. Maomao isn’t actually a very good liar."

    (Spoilers up to the end of LN 12!)

    In the bandit camp Maomao is questioned a little more incessantly on the topic of her supposed husband.

    "The best lies, in her experience, are always the ones closest to the truth. The ones that weave the threads of fact and fiction into one, uniform fabric, indistinguishable.
    There is only one person who has ever expressed real interest in her hand in marriage. Who has held her in his arms and kissed her. There can be no future for their relationship in truth,
    but just, says the little voice in the back of her head, imagine."

    In which Maomao has to improvise and talk some more about her "husband", Xiaohong grows stronger and is smarter than anyone gives her credit for, and Jinshi is only there by hearsay, until he finally has his Maomao back. Then he is, once again, so in love.
