LINKDING

Summary: On the desk in between Yue Qingyuan and Shen Qingqiu was a printout of the email. Shen Qingqiu refused to look at it. If he tried very hard, he could pretend it wasn’t there. When the email had hit his inbox this morning, Shen Qingqiu had read it and reread enough to have it memorized, as he tried to comprehend the meaning of these words arranged in this order. The second that comprehension dawned upon him, he’d deleted the email then promptly tried to forget everything about it. He wasn’t being very successful on that front. The message, written with the extraordinary eloquence that Shen Qingqiu knew Luo Binghe was capable of, had been sent en masse to the entire faculty and student body. It stated two main points. Firstly, that Luo Binghe attested that Shen Qingqiu had never slept with, assaulted, molested, groomed, or was in any way inappropriate to him during his time at Cang Qiong Academy (thanks for the endorsement, Binghe!!). Secondly, that Luo Binghe was announcing this because he intended to marry Shen Qingqiu and did not want even the whisper of false impropriety to stain his Shizun’s name. ➤ cackling with delighted laughter over this svsss bingqiu modern au ➤ these complete weirdos!!! (affectionate) ➤ lbh, a former student of sqq who has since become an international superstar, sends a mass email announcing his interest in sqq. sqq is more worried about his old student's feelings being hurt than he is about the evident stalking the email reveals ➤ the fic is so funny, with so many perfect details. and the last line!!! I'm dead. ➤ 6k words in length

<blockquote>“You’re about to tell me you’re going to marry him someday,” Jiang Yanli said. “Uh,” Wei Ying replied. His hesitation had not been what she was expecting. He had been sounding so sure! “Well. I suppose.” “You suppose?” “It’s true that I am going to marry him someday, if by ‘someday’ you mean, specifically, yesterday.” / A sober woke-up-married-in-Vegas fic</blockquote> ➤ woke up married (but totally remember what they did and are on board with the decision), the outside pov is for the first half

<blockquote>Lan Zhan shuts his eyes in exasperation. Lan Huan’s “Head Up and Heels Down,” shirt is confusing enough to the average person without being actively suggestive. (Every time Wei Ying sees it he proceeds to sing, “Heels down, head up, that’s the way we like to fuck!” under his breath, so the line for “actively suggestive” is… mutable.) He can’t imagine the kind of top stampede his extremely gay brother would cause by going out of the house in a t-shirt announcing, for all intents and purposes, his desire to be the star of an orgy. He tries very hard not to picture either the stampede or the orgy. “Why would you even want sixteen hands between your legs, anyway?” Wei Ying asks the room at large, sounding genuinely curious. “What would they do? I feel like at a certain point there’s, like, diminishing returns, right?” Ah. The mental image of Lan Huan’s Top Stampede has been replaced with a mental image that is both better and worse: Wei Ying as the centerpiece of a nine-person orgy. Or: A Horse Girl throw pillow, and what comes after.</blockquote> ➤ I love all the yes -anding absurdist humour, how well lwj&wwx clearly know each other, the affection and delight they have in each other!

<blockquote>“I do not ‘have a go’ at you,” Nicky said, with a frankly offensive degree of dignity for someone who had once called Joe both arrogant and lazy within the space of five minutes; that Joe had used the term ‘self-righteous bastard’ shortly prior was beside the point.</blockquote>

<blockquote>Silas Octakiseron might be the only person that Gideon Nav hates more than she hates Harrowhark Nonagesimus. So when Harrow needs a scene partner to show him up, Gideon can hardly refuse, even if it means getting cozy with her two best nemeses: Harrow and iambic pentameter.</blockquote>

<blockquote>Nihuang with her heart pounding squeezed the Emperor’s hand. She had known before she submitted the report that it might not work. She had already thought of her last resort. She confessed, “I could not choose from the nine good men, your Majesty, because the one I wanted was not there.”</blockquote> ➤ Perhaps not the best idea to end up with a fic focused on questions of identity as your first fic in a fandom but it looked fun so here we are. And it turns out this one is totally readable even if you don't know the characters! Even if I'm sure I'm missing absolute boatloads of nuance. I was still right - it was fun.

<blockquote>An AU where David becomes a wedding and event planner after the Roses lose everything. And Patrick is still...Patrick. With apologies for anachronisms, as I haven't seen the latest season.</blockquote>

<blockquote>Summary: There are some people the universe really, really wants you to meet. // After about twenty seconds of silence, the guy in the peacoat says, “I really promise I’m not going to murder you.” Notes: Or, Sansa is a genetic counselor, Jon is a Targaryen (maybe?), and it’s secular Christmas in modern Westeros. In which I take a fandom to work for like the fortieth fucking time and it’s a lot of exposition because--I do what I want? And what I wanted was a big joke about inbreeding depression. (Please take none of the below seriously.)</blockquote>

<blockquote>The Regal Copper Laurentius accidentally acquires a captain, Tharkay spectates, Temeraire is Not Actually an Orphan, and no one really knows who's leading France. Someone should probably get on that, considering England is at war with the place.</blockquote> ➤ AMAZING. An au in which all the humans are dragons and all the dragons are humans.

<blockquote>In which a young innocent maiden falls prey to the wiles of a seductive licentious vampire. Or is it the other way around? (AKA an unholy fusion of Carmilla and Dracula, Discworld-style)</blockquote>

<blockquote>Against expectations, Damen and Auguste become best bros and help each other discover their dreams.</blockquote>

<blockquote>a daddy!Comebferre AU based on this drawing by SimplyIrenic. Since the barricades are, as tenlittlebullets once described it, Victor Hugo’s what-if-1832-was-1848 AU, we’re going to go with that. GUESS WHAT LOUIS-PHILIPPE YOUR REIGN ENDED AFTER ONLY TWO YEARS I’m sure this comes as a surprise to many 19th century historians. (Also I am not saying that Louis-Philippe’s reign kept us from having steampunk airships, but I am implying it.) </blockquote>

➤ as of last update, contains: "The Pirates! In an adventure with threesomes," "Part two: In which the pirates receive an invitation to breakfast" "Part Three: The Pirates Encounter A Monster from the Depths of Hell"

<blockquote>A chance encounter in the Luxembourg causes Marius to realize that, once again, he's doing everything all wrong. It's only fair that Javert gets to ruin one of Valjean's plans for once.</blockquote> ➤ MARIUS EVERYONE IS SECRETLY JUDGING YOU, NOT JUST VALJEAN ➤ or: this fic captures Marius's damnfool well-meaning idiocy PERFECTLY -- I was LITERALLY FACEPALMING all the way through ➤ OH MARIUS

➤ When Arthur comes out as gay to his father, Uther is horrified and doesn't understand anything but HE WILL NOT REJECT HIS SON so he determines to LEARN. And somehow Merlin ends up being the guy guiding Uther into a better understanding of gayness. ➤ Main focus is Uther-Merlin friendship ➤ originally on kinkmeme here: http://kinkme-merlin.livejournal.com/32553.html?thread=34760489

<blockquote>A long time ago, in a galaxy very close to our own.</blockquote>

<blockquote>A brief glimpse of the life of Sir Richard F. Burton, as seen by his manager at the "English Breakfast."</blockquote> ➤ written just for meeeee and it is just as epic as it sounds!
