Summary
Hua watched her with a wary eye. Slowly, and with a voice coated in twisting grapevines, she asked, “If… you’re going to the store tonight, can you buy a different flavor of tea?”
Mei looked over at her in slight confusion while she rinsed the mug. She turned off the sink to garner a good look at her.
“I thought you like floral tea?” Mei asked her, disbelieving.
Hua grimaced and rubbed a few fingers on her sore throat. “I do,” she said. “I assume it’s the sickness, but the floral taste it’s— it’s a little strong for me now.”

Or, Fu Hua had built a garden for her love, though she doubted Kiana and Mei would ever step foot in it.

Summary
Mermaids are said to be carved in the image of Aphrodite's beauty, and is thus the reason the dissolved into sea foam when they died. Kafka doesn't think much of it until a new student named Stelle transfers into her class.

Summary
There were other factors. Assurances to fall back on. This stranger, this ‘definitely not who she thinks she is’ stranger, has a softness in their touch Furina would never expect from that other woman. The very concept felt foreign, forget what the twins had said about supposedly gentle hands. Besides, this stranger is being so... nice and sweet right now. It's probably not who she thinks. It couldn’t be. She would be a lot more brusque… Assumably.
Still, there’s a non-zero chance. A new blot of dark red in her theories, spreading outwards to consume.
There is a possibility, however small she commands it to be, that the one she’s dancing with, pliant to Furina’s touch, is one Lord Knave, Arlecchino.
---------
Or, Furina attends a masquerade at her friend's request to get away from the tension of a frustrating week, and waltzes with one of said tensions. Meanwhile Arlecchino wrestles with wanting to get closer to Furina out of both respect and intrigue and stumbles into success while mostly keeping her aura intact.

Summary
Ei/Miko/Shogun/Sara fics set in my main, canon-compliant Genshin Impact timeline. Listed in recommended reading and mostly-chronological order! You can consider A Malleable Definition of Eternity the 'primary' work in the series, but all fics more-or-less stand on their own unless otherwise mentioned.

Summary
Edelgard speaks without thinking.
“And when we’re old, we’ll complain about how much our bones hurt by the warm fire.”
“What do you mean?” asks Byleth. They spin, to the rhythm of the song, feet stepping perfectly in sync.
“Forgive me, my teacher. Please ignore my ramblings.”
If only hope were fleeting, and not something that clung desperately to Edelgard’s very soul.
Or
Edelgard learns what it means to be happy.
Snippets of Edelgard’s life at four different stages. Meant to be a companion piece to my other story, Safe Harbors.
