    Summary

    “Don’t go to Jisan Village, Shen Yuan.”

    He woke with a gasp.

    Shen Yuan only came to Jisan for his health. Clean mountain air, a beautiful old house, a few quiet weeks away from Shanghai—that was supposed to be all.

    But Jisan has been waiting for a Shen to come home.

    As the Autumn Festival approaches and chrysanthemums bloom throughout the village, its hospitality begins to feel less like kindness and more like preparation.

    By the time Shen Yuan understands what his good fortune truly means, he is already dressed in red.

    Summary

    “You'll live, Shen Yuan.”

    Full name, huh? He knew Er-ge would be devastated furious when he found his body.

    “If only you weren’t so stubborn—” the frustration was clear, even as the man stepped away for a second, the sounds no longer muffled.

    I know.

    I’m sorry.

    “I wouldn’t have to—” a muffled curse, clothes rustling.

    Liquid forced its way down his throat, making him cough; a cold hand pressed on his chest, keeping him down, barely cool enough to delay the fire starting in his veins.

    What—no, no, no—

    “Breathe.”

    Alternatively: Take Shen Yuan from Correcting Deviations and Temporary Misalignment, drop him into a new body in a world where a different Shen Qingqiu already exists—one who remembers the Original Goods—and watch whether Shen Yuan swims or sinks.

    You don’t need to read the two previous works for this one, but it helps with themes and emotional context.

    Summary

    “Does bonding with you mean you’re mine?” he asked with nearly a childlike wonder.

    Gasps erupted behind them.

    Familiars did not speak aloud.

    Shen Jiu ignored everyone else completely.

    “It means you're mine,” he corrected coolly.

    The creature’s eyes narrowed pleasantly.

    “Ah,” it said softly. “That works too.”

    Shen Jiu wants a powerful familiar. An intelligent familiar. A familiar worthy of the Academy's top student.

    What he gets is Shen Yuan.

    Or:

    Shen Jiu accidentally summons an eldritch horror with the personality of an affectionate cat and discovers that everyone else's survival instincts are dramatically overdeveloped.

    Summary

    A man—tall, refined, devastatingly handsome—met his dazed gaze with a gentle, unhurried smile.

    “If Xiao Yuan agrees,” he said mildly, “a little company. Nothing nefarious. In return, Xiao Yuan gets the first male lead role.”

    Shen Yuan stared, mind desperately trying to put this absurd situation into some kind of valid context. Was he being propositioned?

    What company, you big-eyed wolf?

    Do I look like an escort?!

    “No,” Shen Yuan said sharply.

    The man's smile froze. He actually had the audacity to look surprised.

    Shen Yuan just died and somehow transmigrated into the chaotic world of a dog-blood entertainment industry novel.

    Now he has to survive as a newbie actor, navigate contract requirements, learn acting asap, and avoid planting death flags—all that while definitely steering clear of the too invested CEO Yue Qingyuan and his White Moonlight slash childhood friend, Shen Jiu.

    Maybe just kill me already...

    Summary

    He stares at the familiar-looking ceiling. The whirl of electric fan loud in the apartment, a plate with mantou on his desk that he can see from his position of laying on the floor.

    “…No way,” he whispers.

    He sits up too fast. His head spins.

    It is his room.

    His real room.

    Laptop. Desk. Bookshelves. The same cracked mug he refused to throw away. His hands—normal. Slightly shorter fingers, skin a tone or two darker, that one mole on the inside of his left palm. No robes. No sword. No System window.

    “…Hello?” he tries.

    Nothing. Silence.

    Then—

    A laugh bubbles up.

    “…we did it.”

    Summary

    A clean slate, a fresh start—wasn’t this what he wanted? 

    This A-Yuan might not be his exactly.

    But he could be, will be.

    And Shen Qingqiu would take responsibility, all while gauging the full consequences of his previous impatience.

    or

    Shen Yuan’s unfortunate transmigration into someone dear to Shen Qingqiu’s possessive heart, as witnessed by the Qing Jing Peak Lord himself. For Shen Jiu, it was as if Heaven had finally granted him a chance to correct fate’s mistakes.

    Summary

    “I’m serious!” Shen Yuan continued, warming to the idea immediately. “You’ve got the whole vibe down. The calm, the posture, the ‘I could sentence you to death but I’m feeling merciful today’ expression.”

    The man leaned back, thinking harder.

    “Maybe a scholar type,” he mused aloud. “Though if you were in that novel you'd probably end up the antagonist.”

    He wrinkled his nose.

    “And let me tell you—nobody wants to be Shen Qingqiu.”

    Shen Jiu’s fan stilled. 

    Shen Jiu’s bad, worse, and somehow good day in modern Shanghai, featuring the mortifying ordeal of being known.

    Summary

    Peter’s grin softened immediately. He reached up, tucking a stray curl behind Stiles’s ear, thumb lingering at his temple. “Sweetheart, if you want to top, you can try.”

    Stiles blinked. “Really? But I thought—”

    “You never seemed interested.” Peter’s gaze warmed. “Usually you like being a good boy for me. Lying back. Taking what I give you.”

    Stiles’s pupils dilated. He swallowed hard, heart hammering.

    “But if you want to fuck me,” Peter continued, voice low now, deliberate, “you’ll need to do it properly. Put some effort into it. Think you can manage that, baby?”

    “And tap that ass? Oh, definitely,” Stiles breathed.

    Peter’s lips curved. “We’ll see.”

    Summary

    Shen Qingqiu should have expected this to be his end.

    Dying, he relives his life—only now there is someone else in it.

    Shen Yuan thought he had died, and then been saved.
    Instead, he becomes a ghost in another man’s memories, growing more real as the owner of those memories fades away.

    or

    Shen Qingqiu relives his life as he dies.

    Shen Yuan survives by replacing it.

    Summary

    “Is that a Celestial Dusk-Winged Turtle?!” Shen Yuan nearly bounced over, completely ignoring the way the two master cultivators snapped their heads in his direction. “That’s amazing! I thought they were extinct!”

    “Liu-shishu, where did you find it?”

    “Does Shen Yuan like it?”

    “Yes! I love it!”

    Liu Qingge shot Shen Qingqiu a distinctly triumphant look.

    “It's for you.”

    Shen Qingqiu hissed quietly, “Over. My. Dead. Body.”

    It felt like just a second.

    Summary

    “How would you defend yourself in such a body?” he whispered. “All squishy. Vulnerable. Look at you—you can’t even lift your hands properly.”

    As if in rebuttal, one pudgy fist closed around his forefinger—still fast asleep, breathing in soft little puffs.

    Shen Jiu froze.

    Then, slowly, his eyes softened. Just a fraction.

    “I’ll allow this once, Shen Yuan,” he murmured, squeezing back. “I'll protect you.”

    “...just until you're less useless.”

    Does sharing a soul dictate the way your life will go, or do your experiences and memories shape your soul instead?

    How much need your circumstances change to give you a happy ending?

    A prequel origin story for Correcting Deviations, although it might be possible to read it as standalone.

    Summary

    “Shidi had an… accident,” the man drawled, each word tasted carefully. Had Shen Yuan been in better condition, he would have remarked on how easily his ge volunteered information—he never did it for free.
    “Does shidi know who he is?”
    Shidi?

    Feeling like he was going slowly insane, Shen Yuan hissed through clenched teeth.

    “Shen Yuan”

    The man’s eyes glinted.

    “And this master?’ he asked leadingly.

    Shen Yuan’s gaze was half-lidded, thoughts scrambling.

    “Shen… shixiong?” he ventured, his voice wavering. The man’s face twitched in a strange muscle spasm before his lips curled into a condescending smirk.

    “Interesting.”

    Summary

    “Shen Yuan,” he says, the tone still that same cool, nearly indifferent calm that makes the hairs on the back of the disciple’s neck rise.

    “A-Yuan should remember what this master said before.”

    The head disciple focuses on the faint dust on his robe, avoiding his teacher’s eyes. “Shizun…”

    “If Shen Yuan's mouth insists on getting him into trouble,” Shen Qingqiu continues, raising his fan to tilt the younger cultivator’s chin upward, forcing to meet his gaze “then this master will put it to better use.”

    Alternatively: I read some stuff, got inspired, and here's the result of that depravity.

    Summary

    “Oh, Des, remember I told you I've got a brother, right?” The wolf hybrid started, smiling sheepishly. “So isortofforgottotellhimyouliveherenandhevisitsoftensoheskibdofonhisway?”

    Desmond blinks.

    “I know I told you once, when I was drunk, you would make a good rapper but… could you say that again? Slower?”

    Kadar smiles nervously. “My older brother. He tends to visit and check if I'm still alive and I kind of… forgot to tell him we're living together?”

    alternatively: it's autumn, it's raining, and Desmond is looking for a home, will he find one?

    Summary

    Employee To-Do:

    ✓ Restock shelves.

    Take out the trash. (...are those limbs?!)

    Mop the blood. (Excuse me, what?)

    or

    Learning that a megacorp like Abstergo created the Animus to relive your ancestors’ memories? Fiiine.

    Becoming an unwilling test subject of said machine? Manageable.

    Waking up as a gas station graveyard shift employee where the customer service might actually kill you?
    This seemed like more than just a "weed out the unfit employees" policy.

    Desmond was used to making bad decisions.

    But when the consequences began chasing him — haunting his every step — even the hallucinations started to feel too real.
