    Summary

    “You don’t even count as human, and you still want to become an immortal? You’ve missed the optimal time to begin cultivating – what can you become? Even if you muddle along with him, that charlatan Wu Yanzi, he isn’t even guaranteed to want you.”

    Shen Jiu growled, wrenching out of Qiu Jianluo’s grip to hurl an ink stone at him. He missed.

    Shen Jiu saw the change in Qiu Jianluo’s face instantly, the man’s hand rising up and blocking out the glow of candlelight. His towering shadow was Qiong Qi given flesh.

    Shen Jiu’s body froze instinctively as he readied himself for a blow.

    But it never came, because when Shen Jiu managed to look up, all he could see was a man’s broad back swathed in black robes, his grip tight around Qiu Jianluo’s wrist.

    “Qiu-gongzi, what could ever make you think that a charlatan like me wouldn’t want this boy as his disciple?”

    Or: Shen Yuan transmigrates into Wu Yanzi’s body and gets followed around by a feral teenager called Shen Jiu… who is kind of obsessed with him.

    Summary

    There's something wrong with Berylla Brax... everyone's heard of the accident. How she'd fallen going to break her fast and hadn't woken for nearly a moon's turn. When she did wake up Lady Berylla came back different. Quiet, observant, intense in a way she hadn't been before.

    As she watches the Berylla wipe blood off of her stolen sword Elia supposes she should be thankful for the oddities of her savior.

    Summary

    In her first life, Nagi learned that if you're too good at your job, you just get more work. In her second life, she's determined not to make the same mistake.

    She's got her tea, her fountain pens, and a solid C-average. She’s winning. She’s thriving. She’s completely under the radar. Until she fixes one (1) roster for Kaien Shiba, and suddenly she's being invited to tea with Captain Ukitake, forced to fight in the Academy Tournament, climbing walls after curfew with a future blonde lieutenant and spending her holidays at the Shiba estate.

    Jūshirō Ukitake is a kind man. He is a gentle man. He is also a man who has clearly never seen a standardized spreadsheet in his life, and Nagi's professional soul is screaming. If she saves the 13th Division from their own paperwork, she's doomed to a life of importance. But if she doesn't, she might actually die of frustration before a Hollow even gets to her.

    Oh and there’s also a rogue-ish poet in the form of one Captain Shunsui Kyouraku who sees more than he let on, who dropped her right in the spotlight and now keeps trying to convince her to join the 8th.

    Decisions, decisions.

    Summary

    "I just wanted to live… Was that so wrong?" The stranger asks, and it's clear that they aren't talking to Grace and Rocky anymore. Maybe they never were. "They didn't even ask for my name. They killed me and they didn't even care about who I used to be."

    Grace and Rocky find a submarine on their way to Erid. Unfortunately, the strange man inside is barely coherent, and he doesn’t even look human.
