    Summary

    To say it had been a shock to see Phoenix across the courtroom from him that first time would be an understatement. Phoenix was an old, warm memory gone cold with time and von Karma’s influence. But facing that nervous smile, that brightly determined gaze, had cleared some of the fog. It had forced him to remember that sunlight existed. To realize it lived in too-kind eyes.

    The gaze Phoenix fixes him with now is as dark and unsettling as a day that begins without dawn.

    While Miles has been making his slow way to spring, Phoenix has fallen into winter.

    Across the span of seven years, Miles Edgeworth gives Phoenix Wright four envelopes.

    Summary

    “I think we should break up.”

    Feng Xin timed it so that Mu Qing wasn’t eating or drinking but Mu Qing didn’t react beyond raising an eyebrow. “Break up?”

    “Uh, yeah, because...” How are you supposed to tell someone that you don’t think they’re happy anymore? That you're in love with them and that they only see you as a casual thing? Mu Qing was stressed and he never let Feng Xin meet his mom and he never moved in. Mu Qing hated when Feng Xin said I love you, actually; he’d get tense and change the subject. The one time Feng Xin had tried to talk about marriage, he’d said Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

    “Fine.”

    --

    Feng Xin and Mu Qing break up. Turns out they're not very good at staying apart.

    Summary

    During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xie Lian finds out that his best friends are married.

    “When?”

    “Four – or five centuries ago?” Feng Xin guesses and turns to Mu Qing to back him up.

    “672 years, 8 months and 25 days.”

    “Holy shit!” Feng Xin yells. “Has it been that long?”

    “Yes.”

    Feng Xin cups his hands around Mu Qing’s small face and gently runs his thumbs across his high cheekbones. “You haven’t aged a day.”

    “And you,” Mu Qing answers, with a teasing lilt to his voice, “haven’t grown up at all.”

    Art and moodboard in Chapter 2. :)

    Summary

    Herein lies the problem: Feng Xin has horrible, ridiculous, extremely inconvenient and unrequited feelings for Mu Qing. He doesn’t know when he’d started thinking of Mu Qing’s eyeroll as endearing rather than extremely fucking irritating, he doesn’t know when he’d started thinking of him when the sun sets, an idle wish for his company on his tongue, he doesn’t know when he’d started buying cherry bread to bring home because he knows Mu Qing likes it.

    Herein lies a second problem: Mu Qing has abhorrent, incorrigible, inconvenient, and extremely unrequited feelings for Feng Xin. He fell for him in high school, in a June afternoon, after a particularly nasty fight that ended in avoidance for weeks. Feng Xin had brought him cherries, hand picked with the effort Feng Xin only puts into things he cares about, an apology stuttered out of a shaking voice, a plea to stay.
    He’s been annoyingly, unfortunately in love with him ever since.

    or, Mu Qing and Feng Xin fall in love on a beach.

    Summary

    “There’s a new art exhibit opening tonight.”

     

    Mu Qing rolls his eyes. “Okay, and what about it?” he asks, sipping his tea.

     

    “Your wedding portrait’s one of the main pieces on display.”

     

    Mu Qing chokes and spills hot tea all over himself.

     

    (or, Feng Xin dies. Centuries later, a wedding portrait goes on display at a museum.)
