    • summary: Wei Wuxian sits up a little further. Then instantly regrets it. “Go to bed, Jiang Cheng,” he groans. “I’ll live." “Will you?” Jiang Cheng says. “Because if you die in my guest room, Gusu Lan will have my head.” He and Jin Ling really are the same person, sometimes. Wei Wuxian considers pointing out, again, that he is nowhere near dying, but he lets it go. He’s tired. And it’s apparently not helping. “Not all of Gusu Lan,” he says mildly. “I think the elders would send gifts.”

    • word count: 6.5k, 1 chapter, completed
    • summary: When Hisoka climbs through his window with a basket of fruit and well wishes, Kurapika isn’t that surprised. When Senritsu checks in on him again (and again.....and again), Kurapika expects it. When Chrollo and Gon and Killua and Tonpa pop in and stop by and generally outstay their welcome, it's par for the course. But four weeks after Kurapika breaks his leg, and Leorio is still nowhere to be found? Kurapika’s maybe getting a little bit concerned.

    • summary: During the events of the auction raid, Haise remembers everything, but instead of going back to living his life as a ghoul, he remains at the CCG as leader and mentor to the Quinx squad. For what reasons does he stay? For what reasons does he refuse to go back? How do the Quinx respond to him? How does he handle regaining his memories?
    • notes: this is absolutely fantastic, and the sequel is a must-read. very gory, so beware if you're averse to that.

Because that would've been just awkw-- "Good morning, and welcome to Programming and Problem Solving, part one," the lecturer began. Changkyun froze, his prescribed anthology of Shakespeare’s Sonnets readily at hand, eyes wide, and voiced a small, extremely heartfelt, “Fuck.”
