    Summary

    “If this occurrence is so fleeting, why does it trouble you so deeply to hurt someone who has already hurt you?”

    “Because,” Aventurine said, anger sharpening the edges of his words, “He’s eleven, alright? He’s eleven years old and he just wants to see his sister again.” Ratio’s expression flickered, a terrible pitiless sorrow turning his mouth. That it was for him made Aventurine burn with shame. “And anyway, he fucked with my head,” Aventurine finished, rather lamely. “I know my enemy and he wasn’t a child.”

    Summary

    In the months afterwards, she will find herself thinking about how she will tell the full story. What metaphors to use, what poignant contrasts and ironies; what parallels, what symbols, what wonderful details to poetically describe a foolish, silly truth:

    That Amos, the sharpest eye in all of Mondstadt, had been perfectly blind.

    Summary

    "Despite everything," Venom starts quietly. He squeezes Kaz's thighs, as if to ground himself by touching him, "you still want to be with me?"

    "Yes," Kaz replies, letting go of his hair to put his hand on his shoulder and steady himself. He leans his weight forward, pressing chest to chest with him. "Is it that hard to believe?"

    Kaz has known since the first time they slept together again that he wasn't Big Boss. But he chose to stay anyway.

    Summary

    The shinobi world has come to an end, Infinite Tsukuyomi has been casted, and Madara contends himself with watching over all that is left, tethered to this desolate reality in his godly state.

    Except, he finds that he is isn’t as alone as he thought himself to be, and Hashirama’s company soon manages to unearth impressions he has long forgotten and ignored, bit by bit.

    (Or: this is how Madara learns to dream again.)

    Summary

    Kaveh has achieved so much today, it should be fine to do this much for himself. It should be fine to enjoy this much. There is absolutely nothing that Al-Haitham could possibly do to ruin this day!

    Of course, this is when Al-Haitham chooses to walk in covered in blood.

    Kaveh has enough troubles on his plate even without dealing with his confusing relationship with and unfortunately lingering feelings for his stubborn, infuriating roommate. But when a strange conspiracy begins closing in on Al-Haitham and threatening the precarious balance of their daily lives, Kaveh finds himself having to reevaluate the nature of their relationship and reckon with the ghosts of the past.

    -----

    There’s never really a good time, way, or reason to tell Kaveh about his long-lived, amoral, exiled, criminal ex-partner — who, Al-Haitham will note, was not any of those things at the time they were involved.

    However, there is definitely a worst way for Kaveh to find out.

    In the aftermath, these are the things Mithrun is told most often: that he’s been rescued, that he is no longer Lord. That dungeons are in his past. The date, the year. What he’ll be eating today.

    He is being cared for. He’s safe.

    Summary

    “You have better things to do.”

    “Not according to the Company, I don’t.” Aventurine smiles and takes off his sunglasses. He reaches over and goes in for the kill, lifting the bottom of Ratio’s chin to meet his eyes. No one ever resists the eyes. “You have no idea how special you are—in that I was sent to retrieve you.”

    Ratio says nothing. He doesn’t really move.

    In which the IPC just can’t seem to convince Veritas Ratio to join the Intelligentsia Guild, so they deploy Aventurine to a tiny university city-state, where he must charm the good doctor into their fold.

    Summary

    Haitham’s uncharacteristic erraticness was having, oddly enough, the opposite effect on Kaveh. It was easier to find stable ground inside himself when the waves were choppy outside. Or maybe it was the bone-deep exhaustion of knowing that if he responded in kind, there wouldn’t even be ashes left to sift through.

    Or: when a kink scene goes strangely wrong, Kaveh trips over a longstanding rift in their relationship.

    Summary

    So there they are, a shopkeep and a curious stranger, losing daylight in silence. The man studies Jayce’s work while Jayce studies him, and isn’t curiosity just one hell of a thing? It can motivate a topside scientist to brave the gray, and it can bully out years of ingrained wariness to make room for itself.

    The man moves again, the necessary three steps left to reach a workbench of works-in-progress. The metalwork of it is rough, all hinges and mechanisms wrought from steel scrap. The beginning of a knee joint, sitting next to the first prototype of Jayce’s own leg brace.

    The man’s gaze lingers there, intent and molten in the dimming afternoon light. Then he’s reaching out, reaching forward, his careful fingers tracing along welding seams and scratches in the metal, and Jayce’s curiosity flash-boils.

    “Can I help you?”
