    Summary

    Tim’s hand grips tighter on the coffee, more determined to keep his hold on that than his phone or keys, and thank god, he doesn’t drop the drink. But the rest of it slips through his fingers, and the guy he just slammed into has some seriously great reflexes, because he manages to snatch them both out of the air before they can hit the ground.

    “Oh, god, sorry—” Tim starts to say as the guy straightens up, and then he stops. A set of amused green eyes look down at him over a wide grin.

    You’ve got to be kidding, Tim thinks.

    “Got somewhere to be, sweetheart? Oh, now that’s a pretty shade of red you’re turning—”

    “I’m late,” Tim snaps, snatching his keys and phone out of Jason’s hand. “I got lost four fucking times on my way here. If this city was a person, I would throttle it.”

    -

    Or: Gotham is alive, and it won't stop pushing Jason and Tim together.

    Summary

    The thing about Gotham in tourist season was that it transformed into something unrecognizable.

    Not in the bones—the bones were always the same, always that particular blend of Gothic architecture and industrial decay, of gargoyles watching over cracked pavement and iron lampposts that had been bent and straightened and bent again by decades of super-powered altercations. The bones didn't change. But the skin of the city did something strange in late July, something that none of the Bats had ever quite been able to prepare for, no matter how many years they'd been doing this.
    their cameras and their guidebooks and their genuine, uncomplicated delight at the Art Deco flourishes on the old bank buildings, and somehow that delight was contagious.

    Summary

    People would find out immediately, he realised. And oh, if they found out what he did, how Liu Qingge lived only because of him, they would laud him for it - then they would keep him in a cocoon for the rest of his short life. He wouldn’t be able to ascend with the others anymore, wouldn’t be able to go on missions or use Xiu Ya any better than a mortal could.

    He could no longer practice inedia, or hell, even keep up with his disciples who already had half-formed golden cores. Who would listen to him now, who would respect him now? What good was a strategist who couldn’t keep up with the men he ordered around? What good was a teacher who couldn’t demonstrate anything he taught to his students?

    What good was a cultivator who couldn’t fucking cultivate?

    Shen Qingqiu manages to save Liu Qingge's life in the Lingxi Caves at the expense of his own cultivation and immortality. Now condemned to a short, brutish life as a mortal again, Shen Jiu chooses to leave it all behind and eke out a small living while he can, aware that death could be at his door any day now.

    After all, what else does he have to live for?
