    Summary

    “Alright.” Hua Cheng said, rolling his shoulders back a few times. “Oh magnificent god of mine, Taizi Dianxia,” he said, grinning, eyes firmly locked on Xie Lian’s. Xie Lian made a show of rolling his eyes. “Grant me your strength so I might vanquish your enemies on this mortal plane.”

    Sorcery grad student Hua Cheng accidentally summons long-forgotten god Xie Lian into his dorm room in the middle of the night. They figure things out from there.

    Summary

    After Hua Cheng is called in to do a rather simple task at a rather decrepit home, he finds himself replacing more than just the carpet in Xie Lian’s home—for example: the stove, the cabinets, the walls, the roof, and his heart (in Xie Lian’s hands).

    Summary

    Hua Cheng and Xie Lian ship the same RPF ship: "Wu Ming" x the man who impersonated the killer Bai Wuxiang and eventually contributed to his death. Xie Lian’s poems are beautiful, filled with grief and love from the impersonator’s perspective. Hua Cheng prefers to pretend that Wu Ming never died. Both of them have secrets.

    Xie Lian looks up from his own phone (horrible, broken, the screen is barely holding together, Hua Cheng needs to buy him a new one ASAP) and pushes up his mask. Underneath, his face shines with sweat, and his hair is a mess. Hua Cheng is in love. "You’re crimson-rain?!" Xie Lian exclaims. "Oh my god, this is the convention you mentioned?"

    Hua Cheng thinks he says something normal and/or flirtatious. The rest of the convention is a blur. Xie Lian almost smiles once or twice. Hua Cheng’s heart aches for him, and aches more when he thinks about the few personal posts Xie Lian has made while they’ve been mutuals.
