    Summary

    “Talk to me, shithead. My nephew just about died on your watch and—”

    “I know!” A fresh wave of ashamed tears spills down Wei Wuxian’s face. “I… I know. I’m sorry, I should’ve… Lan Zhan should’ve been there instead, or you, or….”

    "Hey.”

    Jiang Cheng’s voice is strict enough to effectively shut him up.

    “You did good. He’s okay. You brought him back alive.”

    OR: Jin Ling is severely injured on a Night Hunt and Wei Wuxian panics when he is barely able to save him. Jiang Cheng notices. They talk about it. And then they talk about a lot of other things too.

    Summary

    When Yanqing is left behind near the Scalegorge Waterscape, his wounds are more severe than anyone realizes, and the General is too lost in old memories to notice. When he is left behind, he feels his failures keenly. But what takes him is not death, but a form he has long forgotten.

    Or: Yanqing was originally a sword.

    Summary

    When he is feeling particularly sadomasochistic, he pays Shi Qingxuan’s grave a visit. These, he remembers most distinctly.

    He and the grave commune in silence: He Xuan glares, the grave is unmoved. In the third century, he glares, but he sweeps the plot of dirt too, especially when the heavens are wrapped up in one thing or another and no one else has stopped by in a while. In the fourth, he brings flowers. He doesn’t know anything about flowers. He resides over death, not the princesses of life. So he picks colorful, sprightly bouquets, ones he thinks Shi Qingxuan might’ve liked. In the fifth, he is struck by revelation: he glares with renewed intensity at the wooden marker erected over Shi Qingxuan’s grave, and he says, “Hello.”

    He Xuan learns the interminable length of a lifetime.

    Summary

    "Dazai..." Chuuya's voice comes out too tight and small, unlikely to ever reach Dazai. His hand lifts shakily, in some dazed attempt to stop him. There is panic wild and fast in his chest, the beginnings of hyperventilation, his breaths shallow and quick.

     

    Something's wrong, something's wrong—

     

    This hurts too much, it's not supposed to be like this—

     

    His vision is blurring, and his head is taut and aching with the stress and anxiety and so much anguish that he can barely comprehend it.

    The last of Dazai's hazy form disappears, far in the distance.
    _______

     

    Forced into a difficult situation, Dazai has to leave Chuuya behind post-Corruption without his usual thorough check-up. Only, he has no idea just what state Chuuya was in as he was walking away from him that night.

    Grief is a good teacher on how to value those you love. When he gets Chuuya back, Dazai uses his lessons well.
