Summary: <blockquote>When Shen Yuan dies and transmigrates into Yue Qingyuan, he's happy to improve his favorite story without the axe of human stick-hood hanging over him. It’s kind of a surprise that he can rescue the protagonist so quickly, but he isn’t about to look a gift horse in the mouth. And Liu Qingge’s presence, however sticky, means that he can spar in this strong body any time he wants – life at Cang Qiong really is good! Meanwhile, if Shen Qingqiu had been more willing to discuss his past with the only person who was part of it, then perhaps it would not have taken him three full years to realize that his childhood friend is gone. When the only other option is living without Qi-ge, he devotes himself to hunting down his soul. Unfortunately, this is pretty difficult when the man wearing Yue Qingyuan’s face has ordered that he not leave the mountain. (It’s not really a surprise when he begins hallucinating Qi-ge.)</blockquote> ➤ svsss au where sy transmigrates into yqy instead of sqq ➤ the fic is in two parts: first, from sy!yqy's pov as he tries to change events within the parameters the system allows him, and then the second from og!sqq's pov follows where the first part left off, with sqq trying to deal with the fact that yqy is so different now from the one he remembers. ➤ the two parts are different in tone and both excellent, both really fitting the kind of character and person the pov character is, and what it is they want the most.

<blockquote>Wu Yanzi barks out a laugh. "I used to have another student," he tells Shen Jiu as he takes a swig of his wine. “I picked him up when the Cang Qiong brats rejected him.” “I don’t care,” Shen Jiu says coolly. He doesn’t. What does it matter that Wu Yanzi had a student before him? That has no effect on him. "He was far less obedient than you, though,” Wu Yanzi continues, not bothered by Shen Jiu’s lack of reaction. “He kept trying to escape. He had some kid he wanted to see, this Xiao-something he promised to return to." His grin is made of black teeth and nastiness when he says, "Make sure I won't have to bury you next to him." (Or, there is a very good reason why Yue Qi never returned for Shen Jiu.)</blockquote> ➤ the one where yue qi really did die instead of being able to rescue shen jiu - but sj reanimates him in the end

<blockquote>Lan Wangji is trying out a body shape when he hears footsteps on the stairs. He is already thinking he has done it wrong--he forgets, sometimes, how many fingers a hand should have, and so he makes his body have sleeves instead, to cover his mistakes. It is a man. It is a man who will scream, probably. Lan Wangji is body-shaped. Lan Wangji tries to count how many fingers the man has before he leaves. “Oh!” the man says, blinking. His eyes are whole, wide, and deep brown, with long lashes. He has a face for smiling, cheeks round and well fed, and when he smiles his eyes crease at the corners. “I’m sorry, I didn’t realize anyone was up here.”</blockquote>

<blockquote>In his dreams, Xiao Jiu is dead. Post-canon, Yue Qingyuan receives a series of unsettling visitations. It's probably nothing to worry about. "Tell me, Sect Leader: in your vast and storied experience, what do the dead usually want with the living?"</blockquote> ➤ tags: <blockquote>#sometimes a ship is just two codependent assholes who deserve to haunt each other for all eternity #and that's okay #look I think this is a fix-it but ymmv </blockquote>

<blockquote>[All of the Wens die and the world calls it justice. The Yiling Patriarch dies and the world rejoices. His soul responds to neither summoning nor Inquiry. A shattered soul, not enough to linger. The war is finally over—history rewritten. And Lan Huan wants to retch as he watches the ghost of a Wen boy follow his brother into the Cloud Recesses.] Or: A-Yuan in the Cloud Recesses for thirteen years as a ghost.</blockquote>

<blockquote>The man is in Lan Zhan’s bed. Did they—he begins to wonder, eyes trailing to where the man’s body lies under the blanket. Had Lan Zhan—? Then the sleep-fog clears and Lan Zhan realizes that the young man isn’t quite opaque around the edges. “You’re a spirit.” The spirit narrows its eyes. “I’m so much more than that.” (Lan Zhan buys a guqin off eBay for a suspiciously low price, only to find that it’s haunted. And now there’s a ghost in his bed.)</blockquote>

<blockquote>After an encounter with soul-sucking vine, Luo Binghe awakens as a bodiless entity in a strange new world. No matter what he does, he can't affect his surroundings and can't make himself seen or heard. He can only watch as Shen Qingqiu - in yet another body - awakens from a coma and tries to go back to his former life, unaware that Luo Binghe's soul has followed him there. What Luo Binghe sees and hears as he watches Shen Yuan answers a lot of questions, but not the most important one: With Binghe trapped along with his Shizun, how will they get home?</blockquote>

<blockquote>When Lan Zhan moved into Gentian Cottage, he was looking for a quiet home and a fresh perspective on life. He didn't expect his new home to be occupied by a ghost who was anything but quiet, or to be pulled into a century-old mystery. Lan Zhan is about to discover that the world is stranger than he'd ever imagined and romance isn't just a genre on his bookshelf.</blockquote>

<blockquote>In which Laurent encounters a ghost and Theomedes would really like a drink.</blockquote>

<blockquote>Han comes back as a Force ghost. I have no idea how this could work; maybe he had latent Force abilities, maybe it's something Leia taught him, maybe he can't use the Force but the Force really likes him and grants him this wish. Either way, Han is back, gleefully haunting the shit out of Leia, who is just as gleeful to have her man back in her life.</blockquote>

Or: in which everyone is a ghost, and there are many snails, as well as a certain amount of spiritual progress.</blockquote>

<blockquote>Given that Prouvaire had died in a bloody revolt, Valjean very reasonably did not expect to see him again.</blockquote> ➤ from the author's tumblr: <blockquote>For vouksen, with hate and despair— who a few weeks ago wanted more Valjean/Prouvaire. I told her that the only way I could imagine it happening, for Valjean reasons, was after the barricade. Horrifyingly, this did not prove an insurmountable obstacle. So here is a sequel to Saints and Martyrs, which takes place post-barricade and features (this is your warning) old man porn of a Valjean/Prouvaire ghostsex variety. Please know that every conceivable logistical question you want to ask has already crossed my mind and there are no answers. The working title of this story is “Exit, Pursued by Prouvaire.”</blockquote> ➤ or: further adventures of the corpse flower.
