    Summary

    The Captain’s mask was absent, but the dark veil that concealed the details of his face was still in place. His long hair spilled beneath him, clawed gauntlets absent to reveal simple, gloved hands. He sensed, more than saw, the Captain open one eye to peer up at him, then let out a displeased huff. “Don’t let the cold in.”

    Ororon’s heartbeat quickened, the ache of loss flaring up like a wound that could never fully heal. It was him. The faint presence of his soul was here.

    Summary

    Sometimes, curled up in bed, when all he hears is the thrumming of ears left muffled from the high of a concert, he feels the somewhat grudging tug from the other end—a silent, ‘goodnight to you, as well.’ And then, if Aventurine chances one more cheeky pluck for good measure, he'll earn a firmer response: three tugs as if to say, ‘go to sleep’.
    -
    Aventurine has long been resigned to live his life in black and white, pulling on a soul-thread with no discernible end.
    Sick of the yawning solitude of a life steeped in fate and fortune, he finds himself taking the gamble of a lifetime.

    Summary

    “Lots of nerdy dudes with intimacy issues keep fish tanks.”

    When Neuvillette learns how close Wriothesley came to being killed by the Primordial Sea, he finds his desire to care for the Melusines (diligently and from a safe emotional distance) has expanded to include the Duke of the Fortress of Meropide.

    It’s not that odd. Neuvillette can do his best to help this particular human thrive, just like he’s done with the Melusines. It will help him better understand humans in general, which will help him better understand his purpose.

    Surely he’s never going to have to think about it any more closely than that.
