Something that I couldn't put into words but now I can about the Chaggie conflict in "Rosie" and one other reason it hurt: Charlie questioning Vaggie's loyalty. Yes, I know it wasn't because of Vaggie's origin but because of the lie itself but still hurts and clearly hurt Vaggie - she has been nothing but loyal and honest in Charlie's dream and has only ever done 1 lie in all of that. And when it's revealed, Charlie is now questioning everything - Again, I understand but it still hurts. And I know this might be redundant, I WANT this moment to come back again in S2. I don't know how but I want Vaggie to admit how angry/hurt it made her that Charlie questioned the loyalty she has given without asking for anything. What do you think?

i don't think Vaggie was even slightly angry with Charlie until her girlfriend made a magically binding pact with an unrepentant serial killer the second Vaggie wasn't looking XD

......we're asking a bit much by expecting the woman who hates and judges herself over her own mass murderer past... to then be upset that her girlfriend was also hurt and angry about that and reacted badly to randomly having all that dropped out of the clear blue sky in the middle of an already terrible day...

so in that ep got the vibe Vaggie spent the entire time feeling sick and guilty over the whole thing tbh. As usual

(and her feeling very very not good about seeing Alastor getting all creepy mentor with a Charlie who just got a wedge driven between her and her main emotional support- im 100% sure Vaggie's "Charlie can we talk-?" following Alastor's "good girl" thing was her wanting to know EXACTLY what deal her gf just made with Alastor and what the hell she was thinking and charlie are you sure Vaggie can't just stab him a little as a warning-)

But Vaggie, she's also not really uh. Not got a good track record of wanting or letting Charlie know about her feeling bad about stuff, emotions wise. Even when Charlie is right next to her reaching out. That's not her thing???

ah what the hell tangent time

like one big reason Vaggie DIDN'T fess up her past to Charlie was her being scared Charlie would be hurt by it and actually hate her for having done that, because Vaggie is being hurt by her past and hates herself for having it (re: every time she's called angels like herself deranged), so even though the blackmail against her made NO real sense and Adam's threat was just him not understanding that someone (charlie) could ACTUALLY believe in redemption for LITERALLY anyone (she does), it still pinged Vaggie's fear right in the heart, making the stuff like how Charlie is letting a known serial killer live in the hotel and help out with her and Vaggie's dream go RIGHT out the window-

(to be fair from Vaggie's pov there's probably a BIG difference between ending someone's mortal life on Earth (a la normal sinner seral killers) and presumably destroying their entire soul forever (re: exorcists) so like, that's kinda fair, but it still doesn't include how Charlie is WILLING TO WORK WITH AND THINK THE BEST OF HEAVEN AND THE EXORCISTS ANYWAY which is WHY she thought going to heaven to talk with them could work in the first place)

(to be extra fair it doesn't MATTER how much Vaggie trusts Charlie bc Vaggie had body parts ripped off and her eye permanently gouged out and was abandoned in hell by someone ELSE she use to trust once and THAT means really trusting people not to hate or abandon her is gonna take her putting some more blame on Adam and Lute and co and less on herself, because as long as she focuses on what SHE did (murderer) to make all this happen TO herself (filth like you doesn't deserve-) she's never gonna fully get that what happened to her was a choice shit people made (let's exterminate ppl for fun! let's rip off our comrade's wings and eye without hesitation!!!), one they didn't have to make, one she didn't make for them- meaning non-shit people like Charlie probably won't do that to her, actually, bc people like Charlie will care about Vaggie as a person outside of her being useful or being exactly what is wanted. Like how Charlie was more worried about Vaggie at the end of ep 3 than anything else and wouldn't let Vaggie blame herself and was fine with things being hard as long as she and Vaggie could face them together. Like how Charlie was calmed in the More Than Anything reprise not by Vaggie promising to fix everything but by Vaggie saying Charlie is important and wonderful to HER)

if anything Vaggie might be upset if she found out Charlie had less of a problem with the Exorcist thing than with the lying thing

If you (Vaggie) think you still need to EARN redemption, then having someone say your sins don't bother them so much can ironically make you panic and either think they're lying to you OR it can make you worry you've downplayed what you've done and are somehow tricking the person you love into believing you're a better person than you actually are and therefor might be taking advantage of them, which of course you don't want to do because you love them, which is a pretty big contradiction you probably won't notice is there

Sooooo i could see Vaggie spiraling into something like THAT but,

her be angry at Charlie for being upset over the thing Vaggie hates about herself? the mental health levels aren't good enough for that one yet XD

basically both Vaggie and Charlie got to live through the very fun experience of being trapped in your own head and trauma

anyway, the fact that Charlie didn't ask or want or LET Vaggie do an apology for any of that at the hotel gates says more than enough for me, for both of them. Just like with Vaggie putting her own fear and self-loathing onto Charlie, most of Charlie's pain in that ep didn't come from Vaggie's past or Vaggie's lie.

I've said Charlie's bad at figuring out what she's feeling and ep 7 is where it really bit her in the ass- she got hit with an identity crisis (turns out the one person who always believes in her didn't trust her enough to tell her this) (this on top of the epic fail of their shared dream to save sinners from extermination and the looming destruction of the hotel that represents that dream) and trauma trigger (what if Vaggie lied about all of that too, what if she never really loved or had faith in Charlie, what if Charlie is going to be alone again) without understanding that's what was going on or that it was something coming from herself as much as from Vaggie.

Being away from Vaggie didn't reduce Charlie's stress during that ep, it made it worse, until Rosie had to yoink her in for an emergency counseling session. Before that Charlie vents about how she told Vaggie everything and shared everything with her (the exorcist thing gets a TINY throwaway mention it is NOT the focus here) and when you add the lie revelation to how Vaggie asked to be alone on the roof in ep 3 instead of letting Charlie be there for her, it stops being about ONE lie TO Charlie, and turns into YEARS of lies ABOUT Charlie's place in Vaggie's life.

Which was terrifying and painful and... went away the MOMENT Charlie realized Vaggie did actual love her and believe in her, and was not actually going to leave her.

If actions mean more than words then their reunion at the hotel gates is them both saying the only thing either of them want to hear- I missed you, i love you, i want to be with you. Here's this horrible souvenir i picked up for your while we were on opposite sides of town and thanks babe im gonna fling myself into your open arms about it.

Vaggie hates herself too much to feel like Charlie owes her an apology for being hurt and angry at the Exorcist lie. It was a pretty big thing to keep hidden

i mean murder aside, Charlie had no idea Vaggie's opinions and advice about heaven was from personal experience, she probably assumed it was just normal sinner bias against the people who kill sinners and not, you know, Vaggie secretly dissing on how terrible her former boss and co-workers used to be. Maybe Charlie would've approached the talking to heaven differently if she'd known. Maybe she would've tried strangling Lute's hologram in ep 1. we will sadly never know

we DO know that Vaggie ran to hug Charlie right after the secret was revealed, which means Vaggie was mainly worried about Charlie being hurt by it, which doesn't really leave a lot of room for Vaggie to be upset at Charlie when Charlie does turn out to be hurt by it

so Vaggie wanting an apology from Charlie? I see her more wanting a very, very, VERY long hug

but if Charlie ever tries giving an apology anyway (a la the balcony scene in ep 3), that might just freak Vaggie out and fuck her up with "oh no my gf doesn't understand how bad the things i've done are am i tricking her am i using her would she be better off without me" issues for the foreseeable future ^w^;

💄 (lipstick) and 🐞 (ladybug) for vince if you're still doing these! :D

Thanks so much for asking!! :D And yes I do, just a bit slow with responding atm xD

💄 (lipstick) - What does your oc think of their face? Do they have a positive or negative opinion? Do they wear makeup? Do they have a skincare routine? What traits do they like most about their face?

He definitely considers himself good-looking and likes his face! Which wasn't always the case, especially when he was younger, pre-T, he didn't like looking at himself in the mirror. But he does now, likes his bone structure, likes his big nose, can't complain XD He wears makeup, obviously, smudgy dark eyeliner and lipstick, nail polish too if that counts, bc why not. He would claim there is no deeper meaning than fashion behind it, but esp. the eyeliner I would say is a way to make him look a bit more mysterious, darker, maybe even scarier than he really is. War paint, if you like XD

Also yeh, he 100% has a skin care and a hair care routine, but I know too little about that myself to be able to really go into it in detail xD He does take care of himself in that regard, especially in the dark future when you don't have RealSkinn or sth like that and don't wanna get skin cancer and whatnot from all the (UV) radiation, you gotta take care of your meat body XD

🐞 (ladybug) - What does a perfect day look like for your oc? What do they do? Who do they see?

Ooohhhh!! Hmmmmm it always depends a bit on whether it's just a regular work day, vacation, etc etc.

The closest to an almost perfect day Vince ever had was how the morning after "Boat Drinks" plays out in my hc XD He and Kerry had spent the night at V's apartment, so they woke up together (maybe with a little bit more than just cuddling involved, too XD), got ready with Kerry borrowing some of V's clothes (including his favourite T-Shirt, which was Kerry's favourite T-Shirt from then on really XD), and went to go get breakfast at Tom's Diner together (because H10 doesn't have a Caliente's joint smh and Tom's Diner is the next best alternative at least somewhere close by). They just talked a lot, and afterwards V took Kerry on a little NC tour on his bike to show him some favourite places (something they got talking about during breakfast, and some of the locations even Kerry didn't know despite having lived in NC forever). The little impromptu tour ended at Corpo Plaza underneath the holofishies, and V told Kerry a bit about his Arasaka past (which Kerry wasn't aware of until that morning). He also told him about Johnny's/ Alt's plan with Mikoshi, Hanako, etc etc and they talked about a potential future together. Just a lot of deep, very good talks really, on a sunny but not overly hot day.

At some point Kerry has to go back to his place for real then, music and studio stuff, but as he gets back in his car asks V if he'd wanna come over later that night (and V agrees, because he wants to get his favourite T-Shirt back, obviously, nothing else).

The afternoon he'd probably just work on some gigs (bc he is a workaholic and I think a perfect day for him would include some kind of work being done, no matter if active, out-in-the-field type work or just prep and planning for something bigger from home or at the Afterlife). Maybe he'd meet up with another friend for an hour or so, River or Panam or Misty or Vik (just talking, no checkups), or give Judy a long call as she's out of NC at that point already.

And in the evening, after making sure Nibbles is taken care of for the night, he'd head out to Kerry's place to spend some more time together (and here in my hc Kerry actually wouldve went a little out of his way and actually prepared something - be it just some nice finger food or drinks, and maybe clear up at least some of the trash from the bar area outside, even if he didn't have the energy left to take the trash bags away afterwards). Or they order a pizza delivered by drone, and have a fun night hanging out, stargazing, skinny dipping in the lil natural pool, or anything like that XD

That was a pretty perfect day, falling in love a little bit more with someone that you really click with, a little bit of action by zooming through the city on a sportbike, visiting favourite places, many good talks, good food, a little bit of fulfilling work getting done, and still having some time to meet or speak with friends.

[itsclydebitches]

God I'm so glad to talk about the game lmao. I also finished it! It was fine Ig I think the start of the game was so fantastic so my expectations were a bit much but it was fun! I loved playing as Ciri and just zapping all over the place, wish we could do that more.

But yeah I completely agree with you on basically everything that you said lmaooo, Yen is just unbareable the more I learn about her and the things shes done/the way she treats ppl, I just don't see what I'm meant to like, even if Geralt wasn't the Best person, he deserves so so much better, Idk how I'm gonna read the books if this romance is canon there too, hopefully it won't bother me too much. She so far doesn't really have any redeeming qualities, even her small moments of humour and wit are sort of "yeah okay but it's not fun when you do it cause you just spent the past few moments berating someone for daring to try and help you so like" I actually ended up sort of liking triss the more I talked with her and Yen, she at least apologises for her wrongs (which are still massive holy shit) and doesn't rly treat geralt like shit (same with Kiera, I think thats how her name is spelt, shes cool), they both kinda fuck over geralt but they own up to it which I can at least respect, still not a fan but they're okay, at times. God the women in this game are either really fucking cool or just a bitch, usually in a not fun way The game came with both dlcs! havent really touched them cause the ending was a bitttt of a let down, I thought I wasn't near finishing cause I put it off for so long lol so my bad, probably will get into them tho! And im on ps4 so no mods :( the exp shit would be so good, the last boss fights were really easy though? I think I was level 34 (I wanted to wear my good armour lol) and the quests are level 28 so maybe I was a bit over leveled but some random mobs in world beat my ass just before the main quests so idk lol. Do you get to hang with Ciri at all post game? They're so damn cute together

Out of curiosity which ending did you get? I was pretty satisfied overall (witcher!Ciri ending for me) but I remember thinking that the last couple of plot points were pretty rushed. Though tbh, looking back I’m not sure if that’s actually the case, or if things just felt fast to me because I missed so much buildup trying to keep track of the basics. Now that I know the characters, world, conflicts, etc. I keep coming across lines and details that make me go, “Oh, THAT’S what we were referring to!” for plot points that previously felt like they came out of nowhere.

Playing Ciri is so much fun though. I enjoy zapping around as well...even when I accidentally zap myself into some guy's sword XD

I’m constantly told Yen gets better in the books (something, something major character development) and I’d be lying if I said that “The Last Wish” didn’t turn me off, but I personally stopped reading due to more than just Yen. The epic just didn’t grab me. The short stories absolutely, but I didn’t like the writing as much in novel form, heard a lot about future plot points I had no interest in/made me very uncomfortable, didn’t want to read a bunch of Yen being Yen prior just to getting a development I may or may not like… there was a lot that made me drop the books, so I’m not exactly in the best position to be recommending them, or even warning against them from an unbiased perspective lol. I might give them another shot sometime, but for now I’m happy with the games and fandom content.

I’m liking Triss a lot more on my second playthrough too (especially how selfless she is regarding the other mages) and I always liked Keira. I think the game did a good job of making her kinda selfish and manipulative (as sorceresses are wont to be in this world), but not to such an extent that you’re utterly repulsed by her actions. Her conflict is “I want to not live in squalor the rest of my days and am willing to mislead a friend to achieve that. Also foolishly trust a mad king that, if I go through with it, ends in my horrific death.” With the resolution being like, “Oh, someone else will give me a place of safety with something as basic as clean bedding? Sweet! Yeah, now that I have some security, company, and comfort I’ll use this research to cure a plague, nbd.” Keira is a great example of TW3’s argument that if you choose to help and nurture people, good things will happen for everyone, and it doesn’t ask you to ignore anything really awful to get there. I can very much stomach “You kept some info from me and put me to sleep for the night” in a way that’s far harder to do with, “You actively misled me for months while I had amnesia, cultivating this fantasy relationship” or “You callously disregard another’s culture and torture our daughter’s friend through necromancy.”

Depending on the choices you’ve already made, you can hang out with Ciri for like, one cut scene in the DLCs lol. But it’s indeed a cute one! Basically, if you didn’t romance either Triss or Yen and Ciri is still alive, you should see her again. I’m absolutely that fan that if CDPR decided, after this many years, to randomly add more TW3 content, I would in no way be opposed. I want more time with Ciri, with Regis, there’s a character from the second game named Iorveth who was supposed to reappear in TW3 but had to be cut and that tragedy will forever haunt me. Forget the mess that is Cyberpunk, just keep making more Witcher content!

[zishustits]

YEEEAHH. They are such a spicy pair, I love how in the series they get to (kinda) get along and care for each other (or at least Ye Baiyi cares a bit for WKX) even if they wanted to kill each other. Dunno if there's any fic like that already buuut. Demolishing of furniture!!! I totally see it 😂

Aaaandd about Ye Baiyi and Xie'er... I can explain!! 🙈 Well some time ago my sister showed me a comment on YouTube where someone shipped both of them and I was like WTF WHAT MADE YOU THINK THEY COULD BE SHIPPEABLE, THEY LITERALLY HAVE LIKE ONE MINOR INTERACTION (guess it was bc of the Scorpion's daddy issues and people trying to get him a better partner XD). But then I don't know, I fell hard for this ship XD when on curiosity looked for fics to see if they existed and guess what. THEY DID. A few at that time but now there's a lot more.

How'd they work? Well, most fics set them post-canon, Xie'er survives the avalanche, Ye Baiyi finds him and nurses him back to health. Somehow they get along, Ye Baiyi being his insufferable (just kidding...?) self and Scorpion coping with his trauma, loss and complicated feelings for Yifu.

And this just makes things harder because Scorpion was just a few inches of metal (or whatever the armory's door was made of) away from the "treasure" (in a metaphorical sense) many had died for. The power his Yifu craved to the point of dismissing and betraying everything else in his life, even the genuine love of his foster son. And all that is lost now, Zhao Jing is dead, Scorpion nearly died, sooner or later Prince Jin will discover that the legendary secret inside the armory was a sliver of wisdom on how to settle down when you are a nomad (and of course, the books of the different sects), nothing out of this world. That raises some questions, what would Scorpion do after he recovers? Would he return and reconstruct his Scorpion organization? Maybe by then, Prince Jin would have discovered the uselessness (at least to his purposes) of what was inside the armory. But he stills has a treason to commit, unless he doesn't feel powerful enough. Maybe the Scorpions could keep working for him? But Peng Duan, who was the main connection between Scorpion and Prince Jin is dead. How would this affect to their relationship?

Okay I'm deviating from the main point. Let's go back to Xie'er. While he recovers and after that, he has time to think about the recent events. Yifu is dead. The key to the armory... Probably lost forever (or not, he could try to find it but we know WKX has it and knows how to hide it VERY well). But even if there was a remote possibility, what's the point on pursuing it?

Scorpion said he had ambition, and of course he has. He describes what he might achieve to Zhao Jing (ascending to power after helping Prince Jin, maybe killing him to become the emperor).

But after rewatching this scene and some other I had the feeling that he was kinda doing it to show Zhao Jing what a capable man he was? That he was better than Yifu in the sense that he had achieved in two days (or whatever) what Zhao Jing had spent all his life trying to grasp. Power. Great power.

I don't think Scorpion cares that much about power. Sure, he leads an assassin organization, he works for people high in the social rank, but ultimately he does not pursue a governor role (at least not for the country). He only takes that goal for himself after Zhao Jing's disastrous fall.

I think there was a cathartic moment when Xie'er went 'hey I'm tired of your shit, I'm gonna show you how things are efficiently done' (to put it simple, because there is also the betrayal, the decision to stop deceiving himself despite his love for Zhao Jing, the hopelessness that leads him to shut his Yifu forever so he would actually listen to him and stop underestimating him, how he longs for the acceptance and acknowledgement of Zhao Jing). But actually he wants Yifu to be proud of him, showing him how great, cunning and intelligent he can be. He wants to make him happy achieving what he couldn't. He wants to take care of Yifu, without him trying to dismiss him, power as his only focus (and love). For me Xie'er is detached from power. He is determined to get it, but there's no greediness behind. Unlike Zhao Jing.

Xie'er is going to pursue power only because he can do it, only because that was what Yifu wanted. He had always tried to fulfill Zhao Jing's needs, he had willingly devoted himself to serve him. And he didn't stop even after he muted Yifu. He just wanted to do things his way.

But now Zhao Jing is dead, is it worth it? Would Scorpion still pursue power so he can tell Yifu's memory that he succeeded? What's the point if the man you started it all for isn't there? And that raises another issue. Zhao Jing's thirst for power pervaded his whole life, making him hurt others, even the people who were closest to him, eventually leading to his fall and evil deeds (karma lol) coming back to him with a hard slap. If not for that greediness, Zhao Jing and Xie'er could have had a happier life (well, if we consider Zhao Jing would still have adopted him because he wanted to, not because Scorpion served to his plotting). I think these are thoughts Xie'er would consider during and after his recovery, grieving and being angry and miserable all the while. Perhaps he would consider going back to the Scorpions out of habit, because that's what his life has always been. Perhaps he would even consider killing himself. But what if he could choose another path? Not quite as starting a new life, because the past can't be erased, but trying different things, having new experiences, meeting different people (okay, maybe this is what starting a new life is called XD). What's the point in going for power when you won't be able to share the victory with the one you loved and trusted?

Okay, now let's move on to Ye Baiyi. He has this kinda flamboyant personality, intentionally pranking and being irritating most of the time just for the sake of it. And I believe this IS good (kinda) for a recovering and grieving Scorpion because it will distract him from his pain and suffering, being annoyed by Ye Baiyi most of the time. And Ye Baiyi wouldn't let him dwelve into those feelings too much, kicking him out of bed, forcing him to get clean, eat, exercise, regaining his vital force and his place among the living despite his huge loss. And it's gonna be a hard and long process, maybe it will never end completely. But they will have to live with it.

Then there's this weird (but genuine) kindness of Ye Baiyi, which always surprises because it comes out unprompted and unexpected from a man who pranks and bickers all the time. He tries to confort, even if he usually doesn't know how (because of living isolated on a mountain for decades). We see this when reassuring Cheng Ling after WKX and ZZS fell from the bridge, and also during the Heroes Conference after Zhao Jing was defeated. And he does it because that comes naturally to him, even if it's not always the ordinary kindness you would expect. And you know, deep down (well, not that deep actually) Xie'er craves kindness and affection, no matter how sporadically he gets to have them (remember his last days with Yifu).

And there is actually another important fact. Ye Baiyi is transparent, blunt, authentic. He does not care to speak frankly even if the words are hurtful or annoying, but he won't feign interest or affection whatsoever. If he wants to be kind, he will be kind. If he cares for you, he will show. If he makes a promise, he will keep it. There's no deceiving, no betrayal. He wears his emotions on his sleeve, like if he is annoyed or content and relaxed you will easily notice. Being genuine is something Ye Baiyi can't help. And that's something Xie'er deserves, after spending most of his life being deceived (and deceiving too). He's not accustomed to it though. He had blindly trusted his Yifu, probably silencing those bells ringing in his head, telling him 'hey, something is out of place'. But Yifu was not honest with him. He better be careful with trusting people from now on.

Ye Baiyi can be a difficult person though. And I'm gonna correct myself somehow because he doesn't actually show all of his emotions to the people around him. He can be annoying or happy or upset when he is with people BUT when he grieves he runs away, he isolates himself so people won't see him in that vulnerable state, which he can't hide other way than being alone. He has been grieving his friend (and probably love interest) Chanqing for decades. But what people see of him is his mighty presence or his annoying self, or his merry moments. Also I think Ye Baiyi feels lonely but he doesn't get to bond with people either, although sometimes he seems happy to be in company, such as when he was when WKX and ZZS. Perhaps he actually likes to be alone, at least most of the time, but he also enjoys eating and drinking with people he likes and spending some time with them. He could have the same with Scorpion.

But there's the thing of the feelings they won't talk about (I don't think Xie'er would disclose his grieving feelings with Ye Baiyi either, although it would show on his face. As Ye Baiyi, he wears his emotions on his sleeve). Probably they would get to trust each other as to live together, tolerate each other, and willingly sharing time together, but complicity is a step further. And even if it did not appear for a long while, I believe some attraction would develop as, you know, they are living together, annoying each other and also getting along, both are beautiful men and well, Ye Baiyi is old enough for Xie'er (XD).

But it looks like a long way to go, to be honest. Emotions to cope with, housemate to cope with, grief, huge reticence to show and talk about feelings, open wounds, past lovers forever gone. There's Xie'er not having a clue on what to do with his life and Ye Baiyi wanting nothing more than to enjoy whatever lifetime is left for him. There are decisions to make, especially for Xie'er. If he wants to keep on living, what life does he wants to live? Maybe he hasn't asked himself that question before. He had just assumed his duty was to be the chief of the Scorpions.

And about Ye Baiyi, could he possibly consider the idea of sharing his last years with a companion, being in this case the Scorpion? Most important, would they consider the other man a companion? Maybe they would become close without actually realizing it, despite their differences and their most difficult shared traits (such as concealing grieving emotions and thoughts from each other because let's be honest, developing complicity with another person can be a hell of a journey). I think kindness and authenticity (and also annoying behavior) on Ye Baiyi's part would get to Xie'er's heart without him being able to stop it. And Xie'er's has also a kind heart, besides he's is inherently servicial and cares about details, so Ye Baiyi would probably grow soft on him after some time (if he did with WKX, why not with Xie'er).

Would they eventually get to the point of disclosing their deepest grief to each other? Would they discover they cared for each other after or before that? And what would they do with those feelings? Would they act them out or not? What would be the nature of those feelings? Would attraction develop between them, to the point of having romantic and/or sexual interest in each other?

These are questions that I hope some day will be resolved, perhaps when I decide to write the fic (and it will probably be one of the longest Ye Baiyi/Scorpion fics ever written, given the length of this post XD).

And that's how you get a Ye Baiyi/Scorpion Slow burn.

Okay, I'm falling deep into my Word of Honor obsession, so after the Slow burn/Fake date/Enemies to lovers we played yesterday now I'm doing it for hypothetical fics I might or might not write some day (please college, finish already so I can start to write the infinite list of fics I have on my notes).

Slow burn: Ye Baiyi/Scorpion King

Fake date: Ye Baiyi/Zhou Zishu

Enemies to lovers: Ye Baiyi/Wen Kexing
