Summary
Svetlana knew how to play the game. She'd been caught in the political drama of Stalin's inner circle since birth. The only child of one of Stalin's closest friends, she grew up in the limelight scrutinized by friend and foe. With the outbreak of the war, Sveta found a taste of freedom with the snipers.
For Zhanna, her place in the military was the only thing she could be proud of, giving her a tie to the place she called home. With the grace of others looming over her head, Zhanna had only one chance to be more than the blood inside her veins and the prayer on her lips.
Then the Nazis invaded the Motherland. Tasked with reaching the Allies by her father, Sveta once more found herself a political pawn, taking Zhanna with her to the Allies on a mission for her father. But with the Eastern Front crumbling, the girls found themselves at the mercy of America for a way home. That meant the Airborne.
They were already soldiers. How hard could that be? Zhanna may be able to embrace the company of those around her. But for Sveta, the daughter of a man who represented everything the Allies worked against in the Bolshevik Revolution, it may be too difficult.

Summary
Sizhui cannot plaster a smile on his face and act like he doesn’t want to crawl out of his skin at the mere thought of being affiliated with Cloud Recesses — of being a Lan, in all honesty — like he doesn’t want to burn the whole place down. Logically, it’s probably not true, it’s not a reflection of himself, but something about staying here, in this comfort, and maintaining a sense of normalcy feels like consenting to the genocide of his people.
What do you do when your home no longer feels like home?

Sizhui leaves.

"You're not..." Arthur paused, lips turning dry all of a sudden. Merlin looked at him in confusion. "...you're not that useless after all."
"I thought that's been established for a while now, Arthur," replied Merlin with an easy smile.
"Wait, no, that's not the words I meant," the king grumbled to himself, feeling helpless and frustrated with himself at once.Arthur is not good with romantic and gentle words.
But Merlin understands.OR,
In which some people of Camelot still have an unhealthy fear of magic (f*ck you Uther) and consequently, Merlin throwing around thunderbolts is not too appreciated, and an emotionally-constipated Arthur is struggling(TM) to help his consort.Just Merthur's married couple stuff.

Bookmarker's Notes
THIS is why I so readily and passionately rise to Lan Qiren's defence, despite my lacking the confidence in my native language & customs to translate concepts I grew up with but did not know where CHINESE until I incidentally realised as much in my recreational studies. This story, exploring all that unsaid and left open by MXTX, is a very good portrait of the silence and secrecy between generations, of the traumas carried through generations, unspoken but FELT, especially when the emotions so unaddressed are so very much LOUDER than what is heard in raised voices, behind closed doors.
This story is, while certainly researched and at all turns endeavored to being Informed, still shy of the undercurrents that so reasonate with MXTX's intended audience (diasporic though I may be) but the depth of things Unspoken is well articulated, here (and certainly to better affectation than what my middling grasp on what-is-THIS and what-is-THAT can really articulate, in either language, in my mishmashings of both).
Lan Qiren is a character so very, VERY quintessentially "chinese": Yu-furen, too, is an archetype that rings more powerfully from within the chinese experience. While westerners can - accurately and legitimately - apply western terms and english-language faults & failings to these characters, the western understanding feels... shallow. This story, from Lan Qiren's POV, has done much to alleviate and SOOTHE that pervasive sense of [wrongness] that so irks me when I encounter westerner's opines of and ON Lan Qiren (and Madame Yu and Lan Xichen and Lan Zhan and Jiang Cheng and Wen Qing...) because... this writer? This writer GETS it, in many levels, where too many dismiss depth existing AT ALL (CQL-only fans seem most susceptible to missing nuance but the english translations available of MDZS do oft get lost as being amateur TRANSLATIONS, so painful subs only account for so much, y'know?).
I revisited the Kingdom Hearts fandom, between re-reading this fic series, and undoubtedly carried my grievances re: Lan Qiren as the western fandom perceives him with me: Master Yen Sid is ASTOUNDINGLY lost on KH's western fans, and the BBS characters in general fare similarly poorly (alongside DONALD DUCK, of all characters!). There are obvious differences between the MXTX & KH fandoms - demographic, region of origin, translation availability & quality, fandom age & aging, etc - but, like, going from one to the other was Rather Jarring whilst being UNCOMFORTABLY similar?
Personal meta aside, this is an EXCELLENT interpretation of the Lan Sect's recent history, and Lan Qiren's role within it, and rings very TRULY to those reading between all left (deliberately) unsaid in MXTX's novel.
