the most alive i've ever been (but kiss me and i might drop dead) by pyresque

Summary
Inevitable, beyond the mere concept of inevitability. Kafka had been one of the best before she retired at a mere twenty-five, and it had been sheer talent that propelled her there. Even back then, Himeko had known—Kafka was a storyteller, and not even five years of retirement could snuff out that flame.
It’s an issue. A big one.
Because if Kafka gets this role, then the ghost becomes flesh. The phantom gets a call sheet, a trailer, a wardrobe rack, and three months of shared scenes and early mornings and Yao Guang’s terrifyingly intimate notes on eye contact. If Kafka gets this role, Himeko will have to stand across from her every single day and pretend that the last five years did not leave a strange little bruise somewhere beneath her ribs.
or, they're actresses, Kafka reemerges after five years of radio silence, and Himeko wonders what the hell she did to deserve this.

Summary
“Will you still disappear if you’re holding on to someone?” Tingyun can’t help but wonder aloud. “What if I hold your hand?”
“How will you predict when I’m about to disappear?” Yao Guang asks dryly, although to Tingyun’s credit, the other woman looks extremely amused. “Or maybe you should just hold my hand indefinitely and see what happens.”
or, in the middle of a very important competition, Tingyun considers a very important experiment (among other things).

Summary
“Your air here is terrible,” Candace announces, leaning one hip against the counter with a brow raised in a perfect arc, full judgment. “And you look like you’ve been trampled by an angry sumpter beast.”
Nefer snorts, stirring honey into her imported tea from Liyue. “Thank you Candace, you’re very kind.”
“I’m observant,” Candace corrects lightly. She crosses her arms. “Besides, you always did get sick when you’d stay up through the night. Some things never change.”
Nefer hums at that, far too tired to argue. “Doesn’t help that I woke up at dawn, I guess. But Lauma had early duties—it couldn't really be avoided.”
or, Nefer and her terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day (until it's not).

Summary
“I don’t like this outcome,” Lauma had said. Sweet, irrational, exactly what Nefer would expect from her.
It’s almost ironic, really—that the first thing she saw when her vision returned days later was the very expression she’d secretly hoped to see: Lauma’s relief, soft and unguarded, painted in the light of an early morning sun.
“What’s the damage?” Nefer had demanded, not daring to look in a mirror yet.
And Lauma only chuckled, shaking her head. “Absolutely nothing. You’re perfect.”
or, Nefer and Lauma, a few days into the aftermath of saving the entirety of Nod-Krai, figuring things out as they come.

Summary
The climb is steeper than Sciel remembers, and the metal groans softly beneath her as she ascends the final ladder. Her hand ghosts along rusted beams warped by time and ink, passing the old scratched initials—lovers used to come up here, the letterings long since faded with the oxidation.
She almost laughs at herself. What was she hoping for? That the room might still feel the same? That she might feel the same?
Then she steps inside, and the moment her eyes adjust—
“Sciel,” Lune says in a breath caught somewhere in between. Her guitar disappears in a flurry of chroma particles. “Of course you’d run into me up here.”
or, Maelle stays in the canvas and life goes on, just not as Sciel once imagined.

Summary
Every movie, every book, every story about the horrors of letting in the ghosts has prepared Dani for the constant state of alarm. The panic. The discomfort of the situation.
Not a single goddamn one told her how stupid it would be.

Summary
Sansa was used to people assuming that she was straight. She wasn't even looking for a girlfriend, and she certainly wasn't looking for one at her brother's house party. And who invited Margaery Tyrell, anyway?

Summary
Shenhe stands guard at events where Yun Jin is needed, watching everyone like a hawk ready to pounce. Sometimes she buys Yun Jin coffee, just how she likes it—not because Yun Jin asks her but because Shenhe knows she needs it. Sometimes she carries Yun Jin to bed when she’s too tired to walk from the basement to the suite.
Things are different now, and Shenhe is more than happy that they are.
