Summary
Kaguya blinks owlishly, once, twice, big eyes searching Iroha's for something, Iroha doesn't know what. Then, eventually, she says, "Oh! Oh. Um! Do you. Want me to sleep there?"
No. No, Iroha wants to say. No. No. No. No. No. Don't leave my sight. Don't be anywhere where I can't see you. Come with me. Stay with me. Please. Please. Please. Don't go.
"If you want to."
Kaguya frowns a little, then looks away. Iroha can't tell in the dark room—Iroha, you genius! You absolute genius! You didn't even turn the lights on! So smart! You're doing so well! At being normal! And fine! Which is obvious by the way you forgot to turn the lights on! Which is a thing normal people do!—but it looks almost like Kaguya's cheeks darken a little as she says, "I… Can I… stay with you? Iroha? I don't. I don't want to be alone?"
*********
Iroha and Kaguya don't easily fall back into living together, but when you've spent somewhere between 10 and 8,000 years waiting to be with someone again, what's a few more hours of tip-toeing around one another?

Summary
Another day, another tea time where Lady Gyokuyou and Master Jinshi were playing the "return/borrow" game over Maomao like she was a merely a tool being loaned between houses.
Normally she would simply let their words wash over her.
Normally she could handle it.
But today was not normal, and everyone, everyone, had a limit.
And as the conversation hit the fifteen minute mark, Maomao hit hers.
-
AKA Maomao snaps at two nobles and fears for whatever punishment it might bring.
Meanwhile Lady Gyokuyou is upset for a different reason.Bookmarked by pseudosmug

Summary
Near the end of her pregnancy Concubine Gyokuyou is attacked in the middle of the night. Maomao steps in to defend her and while fighting for her life ends up taking the life of the attacker while sustaining serious injuries.
While Jinshi steps in to care for her physically, Maomao deals with the mental turmoil of taking a life.
With Maomao vulnerable and Jinshi doing his best to be patient with her, something begins to bloom between them.
--
Complete self-indulgent slow-burn/fluff because I'm sad we didn't get it when Maomao saved Jinshi.

Summary
Minori's past as an idol fan gives her a lot of perks, but it also comes with the burden of... knowledge. Knowledge about the parts of the idol fandom she has to keep her group mates / girlfriends away from. Such as self insert fanfiction, something she'd NEVER write herself... under her own name that is.
