    Summary

    She once dreamed of becoming a gold medalist figure skater like her mother, who died giving birth to her. But as it turned out, she was just a shadow of her mother’s dazzling radiance, a moon incomparable to the sun. After losing a series of competitions and facing the humiliation of being a failed successor to a legacy, Nahida decided to quit figure skating.
    Although her love for the sport still lingered like undying embers, she was considering leaving the field altogether…
    Until one day, she met a young man on the ice.
    Determined to find a place for them in this world, she offered to become his coach and guided him through the world of being a figure skater.

    Two birds, rising from the ashes of their failures,
    Rose to greet the snowflakes and basked in the warmth of ice,
    As a coach and athlete,
    As souls dancing to the tune of purpose and self-acceptance.

    Summary

    Lyney thinks he is shaking. “Shut up, Wriothesley. Just shut the fuck up.”

    “We’re getting married, thanks to you,” Wriothesley says coldly. His hand comes up, lifting Lyney’s face, and his fingers are icy against the flush of the night on his skin. “You now have your entire life to try to make me shut up.”

    Lyney finds himself entrapped in marriage with the duke whose estate he infiltrated and barely managed to escape from two years ago.

    Summary

    Taking a trip to Liyue and seeing the Lion Dance made Freminet discover a hidden interest in dance as a whole. And an interest in the dancer who, even days after, Freminet can’t seem to get his mind off of. A boy who burns across the water as he dances on, tendrils of steam snaking up his legs, as if attempting to drag him back down into the ocean for his actions against it. Miraculously, he stays on top, never once sinking like Freminet is fond of doing. And for once, Freminet doesn’t want to sink either.

     

    Or

     

    In Liyue, Freminet finds himself stumbling into dance, and by extension, into Gaming’s inviting arms
