    Summary

    “If you'd like, I can accompany you. The latest reports from the Gardes show that the area is safe but you can never be too sure.” To no one's surprise, Clorinde was quick to offer her protection. She knew she was no longer Furina’s bodyguard but she would extend an offer like this one to any of her friends.

    The mention of potential danger did give her some pause, but Furina ultimately decided to turn Clorinde's offer down. “Thank you, but I do not believe I will need someone to come with me. I think I can defend myself from most things. Really, how dangerous can a little bird watching be?”

    Directing someone pretending to be a Violetgold Angler Gull should not be difficult for someone as talented as Furina de Fontaine, but for whatever reason, she could not make the vision come to life. Desperate for anything that could help her, she asked her friends for some advice. The suggestion to go bird watching piqued her interest. It was far more entertaining then hitting the books, after all. Surely she won't run into any issues if she doesn't do anything foolish.

    Summary

    Arlecchino, a data analyst for the Ministry of National Security, is transferred to a remote town on the sea. Having just returned to work from extended sick leave due to an injury, her nights are plagued by dreams of drowning, and her memory is hazy at best, so it really doesn't help that her new neighbor seems awfully familiar...

    Summary

    “I think you’re wrong,” she murmurs into Furina’s ear and is rewarded with a shiver. “I think you share more than you care to admit. Eager to please. Attention seeking. And most telling of all, an inclination towards being… praised.”

     

    “That’s not…” Furina seems to stumble. Her eyes are darting every which way, looking for an escape route, but Arlecchino has her trapped. “That’s not anything special. E-everyone likes to be praised, now and a-again.”

     

    “Oh, I am not accusing you. Far from it.” Arlecchino leans in even further, voice dropping to a silk whisper. “I only find it amusing that the Hydro Archon of all people, delights in the pleasure of being called a... good girl.”

    Summary

    Furina’s mismatched eyes are shining with excitement and Focalors finds her own pulse quickening, taken ahold by her little ripple’s delight. A chance to experience the sights and sounds that were robbed of her during those long, lonely 500 years? A chance to explore a brave new world? That’s…

    Honestly, that sounds amazing.

    “This sounds less like a vacation and more like a roadtrip that you’re proposing,” says Focalors, her own excited smile threatening to break through.

    And Furina lights up.

    What's a freshly resurrected god brought straight back from the dead supposed to do with herself? Focalors may not have an answer to every existential crisis thrown her way, but well, that's what summer vacation is for, right?

    Summary

    The waters had receded. Fontaine was rebuilding.

    But guilt does not end with the tide.

    Arlecchino stood alone at the edge of the reconstructed opera house, her clawed hand resting lightly on the brass railing. From the balcony, she watched the stage below—empty now, except for a single white prop fan left behind during rehearsal.

    She hadn’t come for the show.
    She came for her.

    Furina had shed her Archon robes and the illusion of divinity. In the chaos that followed the revelation of Neuvillette’s identity and her own powerlessness, she had disappeared—quietly, carefully. No grand announcement.
