Ghost City respected the law of equivalent trade and bartering, even if the currency shifted between the mundane and the horrific.  When that law was spat on, Ghost City spat right back, and Yin Yu was often the blade of such justice when Hua Chengzhu was otherwise preoccupied.

A fine addition to the Wangxian Against ICE collection! Huge shoutout to @lemonlushff for such a lovely prompt!

FINISHED!!

My FILK and fic piece, Important Songs of the Pier, is now fully online and available! The thing is that it's part filk and part fic, so I'm wondering if I should risk the wrath of the bots and make it public. As far as I know, they don't really scrape audio.

Thoughts?

Should I make the FILK/fic public?

Make it public! It should be fine.

Nah, keep it restricted. I'm sure people will find it.

Insert nuance here

Nailed It!! *^_^*

Listen. Listen. Ever since I wrote the cake, I wanted very much to bake it. It's not quite what I had in mind, but I did it and it's mine. *^_^*

Also, modeling chocolate is tough to work with! XD Fondant? Surprisingly easy to work with! 0.o I was Shocked.

BTW, this is a maple-flavored cake with almond-flavored icing. Gives a kind of smooth, subtle, earthy vibe to it.

(Read the fic from the beginning here!)

"Tell me to stop..."

The words were ragged on her lips. Shuddering, shaking their way out of her.

Beneath her, her beloved smiled.

"I don't want you to."

Those words rang with trust, and it rolled through her. Her shuddering muscles brought her closer, and she nearly choked.

"Please!" she gasped, tears finally beading in the corner of each eye. "Don't make me do this! One word! Just one-!"

She was stopped by a loving hand. Her face was touched lightly, and as the hand fell, exhausted, she knew it had left a trail behind.

"I know it's difficult to bear-" that voice, always so strong, was a shade of what it could be "-but you are strong. You can do this."

As if they weren't on a battlefield. As if they hadn't been drawn to fight one another, to defend what they couldn't wholly understand.

"I can't!" Her strength was failing, her vision blurring. "I can't! Please don't-!"

"But it's already done."

The reminder wasn't unkind. It was soft. Gentle. Loving. As if they were entangled in nothing more or less than a loving embrace, proclaiming their love with only the celestial bodies to bear witness.

As if there weren't a sword between them, held by unwilling and willing hands alike. One desperate to release, to save what little life force could be recovered. One at peace with dying, prepared for this eventuality.

One of the two had always been optimistic. The other, realistic.

How cruel reality could be.

"When I die, the spell will release." The words were meant to be comforting. They weren't. "You'll have my magic, and you'll be free to take your place."

"But I don't want it!" She wanted to rage against her own body. Stop this from happening. But it was done... it was done... "Not like this!"

It was so her. So optimistic. He wished he could share her view, but...

He was always a realist. And he was dying.

And he loved her.

"I'll meet you in the stars," he told her instead. "Be strong, and don't let go of our future."

In the next moment, her hands finally, finally let go of the sword. For her, it was one moment too late.

In the moment after that, the people learned, viscerally, the meaning of "hell on earth."

And they had every reason to be afraid.

I wrote another original story. Well, a wondering, more than anything else. It's called The Child Grew Up, and I hope you enjoy it.

Not sure what to do, and I'm gonna leave it to tumblr to decide. I've locked my fics on AO3 due to the AI thing, but I've been seeing some posts floating around saying that locking won't even help. Should I

keep the fics locked (potential to save from AI, but guests can't read)

unlock the fics (AI damage is done, and guests can read!)

see the results (idk either and we can be confused together)
