    Summary

    There are things in this universe that are opinions, and things that are indisputable truths. That Dan Heng is an utterly captivating being is most assuredly the latter --- and if one were to ask Jing Yuan which of the countless hills in the galaxy he'd choose to die on, it would be in defense of this unassailable fact. For all his worldly riches, it was not until Jing Yuan forged a cautious friendship with this beautiful soul that he truly realized how poor he had been.

    Or: Dan Heng catches a cold. Jing Yuan catches feelings.

    Summary

    “Do you understand now?” Dan Feng says gently, lingering on Jing Yuan’s face as if he could inscribe it within the walls of his mind with the force of sheer will alone. “When you meet the person I become next, I hope your actions will be based on seeing them for who they are, and not for who I am now.”

    Jing Yuan leans in, and raises Dan Feng’s hand to intertwine it within his own, awed as ever how they fit into each other perfectly, two halves of a whole. Slowly, deliberately, tamping down the unease that has been plaguing him throughout the entire afternoon, he murmurs, “You provide me with all of these hypotheticals, but I know you have another few centuries within you just yet.”

    Dan Feng smiles, as mysterious and unreachable as the moon itself, the curve of his mouth a direct contradiction to the melancholy in his eyes. There is an entire world of ambiguity contained within his expression, and Jing Yuan, ever the foolish one when it comes to the person he adores, does not think to pursue it any further.

    A story about the sea, and falling in love a second time.

    Summary

    Ren chuckles mockingly, and moves his mouth dangerously close to Dan Heng’s ear until Dan Heng can feel intimately every time that he huffs out a warm breath. “You haven’t changed at all. Always so sharp with your tongue and quick with your spear. And always, always, running away.”

    “I’m not running away right now, am I?” Dan Heng points out irritably, stormy eyes flashing pure steel.

    Ren lets go of one of the wrists he has pinned to the wall, and reaches a bandaged hand to tug roughly at Dan Heng’s short, cropped hair. “You are,” he says quietly. “This mortal shell you continue to wear, the celestial powers you continue to hide – what are those, if not running away?”

    Thirty (and then some) snapshots studying the orbit of the sun and star around the moon.
