    Summary

    In a visual binary star system the brighter star is called the primary star, and the dimmer is considered the secondary. In some publications (especially older ones), a faint secondary is called the comes (companion). The orbit of the binary system can be calculated during an eclipse with the help of the stellar parallax.

    [excerpt taken from the research of the physics department of HSS via Data Bank]

    "What's wrong?" Dan Heng can't help blurting out.

    "I miss them," Caelus mumbles, his head against the cold window. Ever the naive innocent angel to speak his mind, he doesn't hide anything from his family that he had made for himself on the astral express.

    "Don't you?" Dan Heng could lie, could have made Caelus feel better but he never wants to deceive his star, the burning in his soul refuses to let him, as if it were fire borne from Caelus himself, demanding utter devotion that Dan Heng is prone to give up readily.

    Dan Heng shakes his head and leans against the window to still look at Caelus who stares at him from the corner of his eyes.

    "I miss you."

    Summary

    His cheeks are flushed pink. From his fever, Lu Guang thinks. Because he's sick. Lu Guang watches a drop of sweat roll down Cheng Xiaoshi’s cheek, and his throat feels tight.

    “Cheng Xiaoshi,” Lu Guang says, strained. “Tell me what you need.”

    Cheng Xiaoshi is sick. Lu Guang takes care of him, in more ways than one.

    Summary

    Ever since he was very young, Lu Guang has learned to make do with little, and to somehow make up for what he and others lacked, never caring about what he really wants.

    Cheng Xiaoshi teaches him different ways of giving.

     

    Or... 5 times Cheng Xiaoshi gifts something to Lu Guang, and 1 time Lu Guang gifts something to Cheng Xiaoshi (with the intention of doing so).

    Summary

    The link between them was only supposed to be present during dives.

    But when Lu Guang goes quiet for a little too long, and Cheng Xiaoshi panics, they find that their powers are able to do more than they originally thought.

    (Or in other words, their powers literally telling them to just kiss already, at the very least, if not bang).

    Summary

    “...i’m sorry,” he says quietly. “i’m always telling you that you can’t change the past, but i couldn’t listen to my own words. i… had to try for you.”

    the clock chimes midnight, bringing them another day closer to september 13.

    (lu guang isn't like cheng xiaoshi: he'll collapse the universe trying to save just one person.)

    Summary

    thanatophobia (n): an intense fear of losing someone you love, usually by death.

    “Hey, Cheng Xiaoshi…”
    “Yeah?”

    “Can you… talk?”

    “Huh?”

    “Talk.” I know that this is a selfish request, but for once… I’m willing to be selfish. “Just… talk for me. Just this once.” Talk. I want your voice to drown out the endless horrifying thoughts of your death in my head. Please. Just this once.

    or: Lu Guang's first dive back in time, and the events that unfold with it.

    Summary

    Cheng Xiaoshi spends the next several minutes just staring at the photograph, his finger running gently down the curve of Lu Guang's sunlit features. His mother's voice sounds from the back of his head.

    The photograph is a window into the photographer's soul. Look, baobei, what does this photo tell you about the person who took it? What emotions do they feel?

    Attraction. Longing. Desire. It might as well be written in Sharpie over Lu Guang's face, big bold characters in Cheng Xiaoshi's handwriting.

    Fuck. He really has been blind.

    Over the course of a year, Cheng Xiaoshi learns to see what's been right in front of him this entire time. (Or, familiarity as a love language.)

    Summary

    “Kang Taehyun?”
    Taehyun stopped in his tracks at the voice behind him, his brows furrowing in confusion. He hardly knew anybody in this city, and certainly nobody who would address him by his full name like this.
    Taehyun turned slowly, causing a few students to swerve before they ran into him. A guy was approaching him. He was tall with broad shoulders and blonde hair. Taehyun’s first thought was that this man was gorgeous. That thought was immediately followed by ‘how does this guy know me’ and finally, he realized that his friendly face looked oddly familiar.
    The guy came to a halt in front of him, smiling as Taehyun looked up at him. “It really is you! Do you remember me?”
    “Oh my god...” Taehyun trailed off as it finally sank in. The last time they had seen each other, Taehyun was crying his eyes out. “Huening Kai?” Kai brightened up at Taehyun’s recognition. “You’re tall now!”

    Summary

    Taehyun booked a special vacation for Kai and himself because he had something to say. Kai agreed to go because he had to tell Taehyun his one special wish.

    Well, things didn't always go as they had planned.

    Summary

    Taehyun goes home with Kai for the holidays, and the Huening family continuously overwork his brain with the implications they keep making. He's gone home with Kai before that much wasn't new, but the remarks and looks from the Huenings? That sure was.

    Or, the Huenings are driving Taehyun crazy with their implications about Taehyun and Kai.

    “There’s no line, Kai-yah,” he says, “we don’t have a line. We shouldn’t have a line. I don’t want us to have a line.”

    Summary

    Taehyun, disbelieving, laughed it off at first. But Kai had been serious, eyes determined, and had only nodded in affirmative to him asking, “Are you sure?”

    It makes sense in a way. If not Taehyun, then who else? They know each other, have known each other, for so long that maybe it could be natural to share just one more thing between them.

    (Or: Kai asks Taehyun to have sex with him. Everything else follows.)

    "Help me, it's like the walls are caving in
    Sometimes I feel like giving up
    No medicine is strong enough
    Someone help me
    I'm crawling in my skin
    Sometimes I feel like giving up
    But I just can't"
    (Shawn Mendes, "In My Blood.")

    Summary

    “It’s just that- I’m upset, I really wanna go to the prom. It’s our last one and I wanted to have the full experience of the prom thing at least once, but I have no one to go,” He sighed and laid his head on his arm on the table.

    “Why don’t we go together?” Huening Kai suggested with so much ease it caught Taehyun off guard.

    “W-What?” He questioned, widening his big doe eyes like Huening Kai had grown another head.

    “What?” Kai tried to seem cool about it, doing his best to make it sound casual.

    or

    Huening Kai and Taehyun have been best friends for years and now it's time for them to graduate. However, Taehyun still wanted to have his full experience of, at least, one prom. Here comes his prince in a shining armor to take him to it.

    Summary

    While Kai has slept, Yeonjun has held one of his hands, tracing his fingers and the lines of his palm. When they were younger, Kai’s hands had been much softer. Free from blisters and other wounds, his nails perfectly round and smooth. Delicate to hold, and Yeonjun hadn’t been able to help himself from fawning over it the first time Kai had taken his hand.

    Years have passed since then. The tip of Yeonjun’s finger rests against a little white scar on the back of Kai’s hand, an old bite mark from one of the creatures he’d summoned. They’re calloused, too.

    Beside him, Kai begins to stir. It takes a minute, but he blinks a few times, his eyes focusing on Yeonjun.

    Yeonjun smiles. “Back to the land of the living?”

    Kai squints at him. “Is that supposed to be a joke?” he asks flatly.

    Summary

    Though he has never been in a relationship before, Taehyun has definitely had crushes before. It’s one of the worst attributes to his never ending curiosity. He gets hooked onto certain people and seeks out knowledge of them, wishing to be part of their lives. But it’s always been considered a distraction, so Taehyun had only ever spent his time living in his imagination. He would create scenarios of dating his crushes, only to be devastated when his curiosity had ruined the glory of it.

    He supposes that’s why they’re called crushes. They crush you.

    Soobin is going to crush him.

    Or: Taehyun finds himself, finds a home and finds love.
