    Summary

    Xie Lian's last believer is so fervently devoted to him that he seems to think mostly in the form of prayer. That is a terrifying prospect. Xie Lian has never heard of such a case before, not even in hypotheticals, and he finds himself hoping, for his believer's sake, that there is some other explanation for this phenomenon.

    Whatever the reason, a low stream of his believer's thoughts hum in the back of Xie Lian's consciousness.

    His believer does not seem to be aware of it.

    _

    When Xie Lian ascends for the third time, he is welcomed back to godhood with prayers that he hadn't expected: an ongoing stream of thought from his sole remaining believer. He gathers quickly that this believer is very old, very powerful, and very, very much in love with him.

    For his believer's sake, Xie Lian can cast a spell to shut the prayers out—but only if he has access to spiritual energy.

    Summary

    “We are t’hy’la,” Spock repeated, openly watching Kirk for a reaction now. When all he got was dumbfounded silence, no doubt mirroring Spock’s earlier appearance of shock, he clarified, “Soulmates if that is easier to process.”

    It wasn’t.

    ----------------------------

    Captain and First Officer meet for the first time. Spock explains they're t'hy'la. Kirk is determined to make this working relationship work.

    Summary

    Xie Lian finds Yin Yu at the small reflecting pond behind Paradise Manor.
    "Yin Yu," he says gently, sitting next to him.
    "Your Highness."
    "Could you tell me what San Lang was like, before he found me again? How did you two meet?"
    Yin Yu looks down into the pond, watching the ripples distort his face.
    "It's a long story," he says quietly, and begins.

    Or: how Yin Yu met Hua Cheng, how the two of them met Black Water, and what Yin Yu learned about unconditional love and revenge along the way.
