He's never believed in red strings of fate tying people together, least of all for himself.

High holy hell, Zhao Yunlan hated this version of himself.

This version of himself was a dick!

After dying, Zhao Yunlan wakes up in a world he barely recognizes.

At least fixing this terrible version of his life gives him something to do while he tries to find out just what happened to Shen Wei.

Kunlun jun stepping out from Shen Wei's painting

It’s still new between them, still unfamiliar in a way that make Chu Shuzhi’s stomach churn when he thinks to hard about it.

Shen Wei prepares to begin his life in Haixing.

Or: The Sleeve Garter Story

The word boyfriend sounds too shallow for the extent of Zhao Yunlan’s feelings and intentions towards Shen Wei.

"He knows that even this small amount of hair is seen as excessive in this new time and place he finds himself in, but he can’t bring himself to cut it shorter. He has so little of his past here, than even a small link like keeping his hair long enough to reach his back makes him feel less lost." (from Forestofglory's fic linked in the notes)

Surprise animal transformation - Zhao Yulan is delighted, other people less so....

Shen Wei gets involved with Fat Bear Week.

Hardly anyone knew this, but Da Qing had not originally been this lazy as a cat. He remembers days past where he had to hunt every night for food, latching onto kindhearted humans during the winter for someplace to stay. Never letting his guard down in order to survive.

It was only because he trusted Zhao Yunlan, recognised the boy as his master that he allowed himself to let his guard down, laze around and accept his dried fish offerings.

The rain was unexpected.

One minute the sun shined, and the next moment, Chu Shuzhi and Guo Changcheng found dark clouds scudding quickly across the sky. When the wind kicked up there was a faint taste of dark energy upon it, showing the unnaturalness of the storm.

Neither Chu Shuzhi nor Guo Changcheng typically minded the rain, but this was more than just a drizzle. Water fell in veritable sheets and crashed to earth with the fuzzy sound of static.

It was a good thing they weren’t far from Chu Shuzhi’s apartment, not that it really mattered, as they ran. The heaviness of the rain eagerly soaked into their coats and down to their clothes beneath, and it plastered Changcheng’s moppish hair down around his face.

“Thank you, benefactor,” the witcher said, his hoarse voice sounding smoother after wetting his throat. “This life you saved…” he coughed, short and painful. “I’ll repay you, one day.”

“Aiya, don’t even think about that now, we’ll settle it someday,” Zhao Yunlan chuckled, but the witcher was already unconscious again.

"Well?" Zhao Yunlan asked, as soon as Shen Wei came back to himself. Nothing had changed around them, but Shen Wei had clearly been doing something with the Hallows.

Shen Wei took a breath, then another. Whatever it was had clearly tired him more than a little. After a moment, however, he seemed to recover. He looked at Zhao Yunlan and and a joyful smile spread across his face. "It's done. Come," he said, reaching for Zhao Yunlan.

Or: Dixing gets a new year.

Original summary: Guo Changcheng is a little nervous after proposing to Chu SHujzhi as a diversion during a case.

Sober summary: This can be read as an alternate sequel to Diversion; it is not consistent with the "official" sequel, Digression. Also, the following piece of the summary was accidentally typed as part of the list of alcohol consumed: I just wanted these two blorbos to have some softness.

Prompt: This fic uses none of the suggested prompts.
