(For some reason I am tempted to combine the day 1 and day 6 promps (Reunion, Soulmate, Family, Past, Present, and Our Future) for Danstelle Week because it's just too fitting for this au idea that is currently stuck in my mind.)
***
So
Reincarnation, Dragon's Bride AU (somewhat inspired from Goblin and See You in My 19th Life Kdrama. I am mostly taking some concepts from those shows since I haven't watch the whole thing yet and only read the synopsis and some bits of spoilers) with a dash of "experiencing a glimpse of a past/future event related to their soulmate in a dream or something before and after meeting them (the glimpses before their meeting is more vague than when they meet)", irl elements and other stuffs
The whole High Cloud Quintet fiasco happened (some details might be tweaked a bit and past Stelle is there) and leads to Dan Feng being reborn as Dan Heng but somehow lives longer than the usual Vidyadhara lifespan before their natural hatching rebirth and the only way to break free from his past life's punishment is for the Dragon's Bride to pull out the Sword impaled on him (Blade's sword to reference him getting stabbed by said sword before his IL transformation), though there is some consequences after pulling the sword out. Currently acting as a guardian, helping around and protecting the people when necessary.
Stelle has the ability to see ghosts and such, and she can recall some bits and pieces of all her past lives except for her first life which will eventually be revealed to her (spoiler: It’s her involvement with the Quintet). In her current life, she stayed at Herta Station before getting magically transported to the Luofu. As for where she's staying at in the Luofu, I'm currently leaning towards the Alchemy Commission so she can spend time with Bailu.
Still trying to decide who will be the Grim Reaper in this story (it's between Blade or Jing Yuan but I'm currently leaning towards Jing Yuan)
When Dan Heng and Stelle finally meet it's either the CPR Scene Luofu edition or Marriage Proposal at first sight
Tying in the soulmate aspect, Stelle gets glimpses of Dan Heng's past (including his life/s before Dan Feng) and Dan Heng gets glimpses of Stelle's future (at some point it's the other way around)
As they spend time together with all the banters and whatnot with the Grim Reaper tagging along, they discovered more stuffs related to their previous lives and the people involved in it. (Bonding moments go brrrr)
(Under the cut contains some hinted spoilers for the aforementioned kdramas)
Eventually the High Cloud Quintet reunites once more and after a series of trials and tribulations, they all get the closure they rightfully deserved. Jingliu and Blade eventually paid their price (which leads to Jingliu being granted eternal peace and Blade his permanent rest in death), and now it's Dan Heng's turn to pay his price with Stelle's help.
When the time came where Stelle knew about the truth behind Stelle's ability to recall her memory of her past lives (she was cursed with that ability due to what happened to her before her death in her first life and her response to it), the truth behind the sword impaled on Dan Heng and its consequences once she pulls the sword out (she only knows the history and the fact that pulling out the sword causes Dan Heng to die), and Dan Heng finding out the fact that pulling the sword might cost her her own life, they avoided each other for quite a while until one side wants the other back (Dan Heng). (Poor Grim Reaper has to deal with that whole ordeal while checking on Bailu)
Several things happened to Bailu and other people Stelle once knew in her past live(s) and reconnected with (for Bailu, it has something to do with the Assassins and her treatment process for the patients experiencing some troubles. For others it's either sickness or bad luck situations), and when she was faced against those Assassins alone with Bailu, that's where she and Dan Heng reunite after a while of avoiding him (as he rushed to help her, he turns into his IL form in her eyes like in Ichor of 2 Dragons. He cannot let anyone hurt his sister and his wife). Cue the much needed conversation after the battle later on and a love declaration communicated without words.
Once Stelle and Dan Heng is ready to have the sword pulled out from Dan Heng's body, they said their goodbyes to Bailu (they won't be seeing her for a long time) along with those they reconnected with and thanked the Grim Reaper for the time spent together. They then went to the place where the curse first befall upon them (the place where it all began). The Grim Reaper was there in the distance to ensure the whole process went smoothly without any interruption. They shared a few intimate moments and reassured each other that one day, they will meet again in the next life. As Stelle finally pulled out the sword despite the struggle (imagine the scene in Legend of Zelda where Link's hp got drained when he pulls out the Master Sword but it's not like Dan Heng lied down as Stelle stand up to pull out the sword. No. They both kneel down during the whole process. Also, Dan Heng's in his IL form here) and said, "it all ends now/it's all good now", they took one last look at each other before they lie down to the realm of slumber. The Grim Reaper proceeds to reap their souls and prepares to give them the next life that they rightfully deserved as it marks his last job as a Grim Reaper.
"The curse is lifted. They finally broke free of their past. Everything is now coming to a close in the present. Time flies by until the perfect moment for the two souls to blaze their paths that leads them starward and become each other's future."

I like to think that after that one message chat about nightmares, both Dan Heng and Stelle begin to open up more and have some heart to heart sessions every once in a while regarding that topic.
Sometimes they shared their worries of what might happen if one were to lose someone they hold dear.
Sometimes they shared stories about them causing mass destruction.
Other times they talked about what might happen if one were to end up losing themselves and stands in the way of their supposed journey and what might happen if they were to face each other in a fight that destroys all that was once a beautiful experience as well as other things they experienced in their nightmares and dreams as well.
And just like how Stelle sometimes spend some nights watching the stars with March, she also shares that kind of moment with Dan Heng too (they even cuddle when they get really comfortable with each other).
They remind and reassure each other within those moments each time in various ways that things will be alright. That they are strong enough to face whatever lies ahead of them in their journey, and that the Express will always be there for them and so does each other.
And the rest of the night is spent in comfortable silence as they fall asleep in each other's company.
