    Summary

    “If only one could root one’s self in here among the grass and stones and do something worth doing” —Gaudy Night, Dorothy L. Sayers

     

    "So, what sort of inquiry takes four people to conduct?" Wen Qing asked, when they were seated.

     

    To her surprise, the others looked to Jiang Cheng, who met her gaze for the first time. He looked sharper than she remembered, as if grief and his change in station had honed his edges.

     

    "The others are here as witnesses. I'm here with a proposal." He took a deep breath and carefully clasped his hands on the table between them.

     

    In the aftermath of the Sunshot Campaign, Jiang Cheng offers the Wens another choice.

    Summary

    When the 3 a.m. knock sounds on her apartment door, Wen Qing assumes one of two things: it’s Wei Wuxian or it’s someone that has been drawn into the orbit of his personal chaos and they’re knocking on his behalf. A quick glance through the eyehole validates her latter assumption; Wei Wuxian is nowhere in sight, but the blurry visage of Jiang Yanli, his adoptive sister, is staring back at her, wide-eyed and fragile in the pre-dawn mist.

    Wen Qing opens the door. “What has Wei Wuxian done now?”

    Yanli stutters out, “N-nothing, he’s fine,” and then immediately bursts into tears.

    Summary

    Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian make up the gaming duo, YUNM3NG 2-1. They make their living off of playing video games, and as such, do a lot of live gameplays in order to earn money.

    Jiang Cheng is playing this time, and it seems like it's going to take a long time, no matter how easy it should be for him. But he has his boyfriend and his viewers there to help him out.

    Inspired by a livestream I watched from bintroll.

    Summary

    I recently had the pleasure of visiting Emily Dickinson's house, where a bought a book of letters she wrote to Susan. Between the book and Vita and Virginia, my mind is filled with the enchanting letters exchanged by women in the 18th/early 19th centuries, and that was fertile ground for this odd little fic to be born.

    The structure is a bit different. Each chapter will be a letter from either Clarke or Lexa, with occasional comments from our Heteronormitavely Blinded Historian™. So chapters will be short and provide little snippets into their lives, rather than the full story. I hope that you, like me, will enjoy letting your mind wander where it will. Not really sure where this journey will take us but pretty stoked to experiment with this kind of writing. I hope a few of you enjoy it too.

    Shoutout to the lovely @anddante for letting me ramble about my convoluted ideas.

    Disclaimer: I've included some dates to provide an idea of the timeline, but this is set in a purely imaginary world with its own towns, politics, and wars. I have made no attempt to reconcile them with actual historical events. I am going for the style and general feel this era had to it, not historical accuracy.

    Summary

    “Nervous, Griffin?” Lexa asks.

    “What, aren’t you?”

    Clarke and Lexa are contestants on the Great British Bake Off. With very different baking styles, they battle over bread, buns, and biscuits...and flirt like mad when they’re not on camera. But it’s just for the duration of the competition, they both agree; no strings attached. Right?

    For Day 2 of Clexaweek 2019, prompt: No Strings Attached.
