    Summary

    “Do you think… we can become anything beyond what we’re made of?”

    … is the first question posed to the Wanderer, upon reuniting with his new “friend”—the little kid born out of that fictional storybook containing one too many magical energy to be lying around in a random corner of the Akademiya.

    The Wanderer laughs. Perhaps such philosophies simply come as a byproduct of creation as opposed to the natural cycle of birth and death—that, for some higher-order reason, they should find themselves being brought to existence, left to grow into the “flesh” that has been given to them without clear instruction as to how. Durin stares at him much like a lost child, like a duck imprinting upon the hen—like his word will come to define his world.

    “You were made of ink—printed words, painted shapes,” is all he said, before turning around, sleeves and ribbons swaying gracefully under the benediction of the wind.

    Inhuman humans, each somewhere along their journeys for the meaning of existence.

    Summary

    “Wriothesley?” said Neuvillette, a confused expression on his usually neutral face.

    “Yes, Monsieur?” replied Wriothesley innocently, even though he was pretty sure he knew the reason for Neuvillette’s confusion.

    “Is that… an otter wrapped around your neck?” Neuvillette’s voice was part baffled and part intrigued as he rose from his seat to join Wriothesley in front of his desk.

    Before Wriothesley could answer, Ceviche lethargically lifted his head. “Kyuu…”

    Summary

    A bleak look crossed Wriothesley’s face and Neuvillette realized that he was being allowed to see such an expression. Though it caused something unidentifiable in him to ache like a physical pain, Neuvillette was honored to be allowed to see such a rare, fragile thing. “Because it is better to have him in my life in any capacity,” he said, “than not at all.”

    ---

    An outing to see an opera together turns into a discussion of love, of pain, and of doing anything for the one that means everything.
