    Summary

    Lan Wangji lived for ballet. His life revolved around it, for that moment where the music would swell and the curtain would rise. Only during his most recent tour, the spark was gone. He no longer looked forward to going out on stage. So he does the only thing he can think of, duck his Uncle's reminders about audtitions and commit to helping his brother run their mother's ballet studio. Only to find the walls shaking with bass heavy hip hop.

    The man responsible? The new teacher Lan Wangji's brother hired to broaden their offerings, a man named Wei Ying. He's confusing and chaotic, and perhaps exactly what Lan Wangji needs to rekindle his spark.

    Summary

    A boy named Nobody, who used to be A-Yuan and will someday be named Sizhui, is raised by the few un-resentful ghosts in the Burial Mounds. Since this is impossible, really, they enlist the help of the disembodied power that is the Yiling Laozu after his fall at Nightless City. They are fortunate that Nie Huaisang, in Yiling to escape his responsibilities, is very observant and far more clever than anyone suspects.

     

    “It’s going to take more than a couple of good-hearted souls to raise this child. It will . . . take a graveyard.”

    Summary

    “I used to want to be a writer. Putting words on a page was never my forte, but I was always really good at drawing pictures. So I became a tattoo artist and now I tell stories through my artwork. Your scars have their own story, Lan Zhan. I’m just here to help you tell it.”

    Or

    Wei Wuxian works at a tattoo shop with his brother and their apprentice Wen Ning. Being the owner of the shop allows him to take on a more specialized clientele. Specifically, clientele that want their stories told in a more unique way; Scar cover up. When Lan Zhan enters his shop, Wei Wuxian is in for one of the most complicated pieces of his career.

    Summary

    “Lovely weather for a funeral.”

    “Atmospheric,” Lan Zhan agreed.  Expecting, as had happened so often in his life, for the handsome stranger to stiffen at the sound of his voice, for that smile to turn false and brittle as they made their excuses.

    “You have a lovely voice,” they said instead, as if they weren’t calling eroded gravel beautiful when their voice was the finest jade.

    It was far from a typical compliment, but Lan Zhan was so starved for praise his heart clenched in his chest.

    On the day of his father's funeral, Lan Zhan receives a box of letters from his long-missing mother. His quest to find her leads him to a spooky, kooky, and loving family who just might want him to stay forever. (And of course, to the man of his dreams).

    Summary

    “Why did you even send him away!?” Jiang shushu screamed.

    “Who would protect a-Cheng and a-Li if not Wuxian!? If I had cut his hand, how would he fight for them!?” Madam Yu looked more tired by the second.

    “You should have cut his hand! Let them kill him! Whatever they wanted to do as long as we were left alive to protect our children!”
