    Summary

    Even the strongest imaginable men can shatter, their souls crushed to pieces. Even gods can break, crumbling into dust. Xie Lian ascends for the third time, but something’s not right. He has ascended with a stake through his heart and a coffin around his body. Death brought him to Heaven, but death also brought him to his breaking point.

    Mu Qin shatters when he sees his friend laying in a coffin covered in blood and pus, more corpse than god.

    Feng Xin withers with the knowledge that he left his highness, that he walked away from his friend in his time of need.

    They break and now they must be put back together. Kintsugi Is the act of taking broken pottery and repairing it with gold, making it into something even better. Xie Lian, Mu Qing, and Feng Xin are three broken gods who have to be pieced back together to become something better than they were before all the while they fight against an enemy even older than they are.

    Summary

    His most recent stumble in healing is behind him. It's time to move on. Again (or so he thinks).

    Really it was just one more block taken from the jenga tower that is Xie Lian's mental health. And it was already missing quite a few.

    ....

    This fic does take place after the previous fic in the series, but you don't need to read that fic to understand this one.

    Summary

    Shackles are heavy, cursed or not. They sit on you weighing you down, making it difficult to use whatever arm or leg you’re unfortunate enough to have it placed on. And if it’s somewhere else? Well the emperor must hate you then.

    Maybe that’s why he didn’t scream. Maybe that’s why he didn’t cry out and beg to be freed from that coffin.

    Maybe that’s why he’s still quiet.

    No matter how strong you are, how used to it you may be, all that weight on your neck would surely make it difficult to breathe.

    —-
    When Xie Lian is dug up approximately 200 years into his purgatory-like time being buried he relishes that first breath of fresh air… and nearly chokes on the weight around his neck.

    He has so many questions… but is speaking worth the lump that rises in his throat every time… afraid of the feeling he knows all too well?

    **this is the first part in a series. It can be read as a standalone fic with a bittersweet ending though.

    I lied. I’m leaving the previous sentence up so ppl aren’t confused but I’ve decided to continue in THIS fic instead of posting each part individually.

    *some timeline edits being made for clarity.

    Summary

    He lifted his gaze, meeting the dark obsidian eye staring back at him. The man before him was striking, handsome in a way that caught Xie Lian off guard. Long inky black hair fell around his face in a slightly messy wolfcut, the uneven layers softening the sharpness of his features. A single red coral pearl earring hung from his right ear, vivid against the dark strands, while a white bandage eyepatch rested over his right eye.

    The man flashed a devilish grin, catching Xie Lian completely off guard. His gaze lingered before he could stop it, tracing over the sharp lines of the man’s face, the flash of perfect teeth behind that grin, and the sliver of bare skin visible where his shirt had fallen open while bent over.

    Xie Lian moved to speak, only to realize the steamed bun was still caught between his lips.

    OR: Third-year undergraduate student, Xie Lian, expects his first peer tutoring shift for Ancient Literature to be uneventful, until he meets a strangely bold first-year named Hua Cheng on the way to class. Despite having only just met, Hua Cheng speaks to him with the familiarity of someone he's known for years.
