    Summary

    Around 1802-1803, Beethoven wrote his 3rd symphony in the hope of drawing the attention of a man he idolised at the time as a figurehead of the French Revolution: the young First Consul Napoleon Bonaparte.
    Beethoven never actually sent his symphony to Bonaparte and never went to Paris, because Napoleon crowned himself emperor before the symphony was completed, betraying Beethoven's ideals of equality for mankind.

    Now, what if Beethoven had finished the symphony in time to send it to Bonaparte long before the crowning?
    What if he had been invited to Paris to be offered the position he dreamed of?
    What if he had met, in fact, that man he considered to be the egery of a new era?

    What would have happened between them in those short months between their meeting and the Sacre, in 1804?

     

    (Beethoven would beat me to a pulp for this, but fortunately for me he doesn't read French. Also he's dead. Pfew.)

    Summary

    Months after returning to the real world, an accident sends Arisu back to the Borderlands to face a new round of death games. No Karube and Chota. No Usagi. No friends at all. This time, Arisu is on his own.

    Except perhaps he isn't.

    Because one person never left at all.

    Summary

    That should have been the end of it. They had all made their choices and, as such, each player who had rejected residency awoke disoriented in hospital, dreams of death and pain slipping from them like water through fingers. Each was struck with a new sense of purpose and a realisation of just how lucky they were to be alive. Their brush with the meteor—their near-death experience—had given new meaning to their lives. They were going to survive, but, more than that, they were going to live.

    Unbeknownst to them, the Borderlands wasn’t done with them yet.

    There was still one card they had yet to play.

    And the Joker was the wildest card of them all.

    Summary

    “You know, on second thought, I do have something to ask you, dear,” he said, clearing his throat. He turned towards her and gently placed her hands on his own. He flashed a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes. “Consider it a researcher’s fixation.”

    Lumine squeezed his hands and gazed up at him with curiosity. Her golden irises were probably his favorite detail above all. “Of course, Zandik. You know you can ask me anything.”

    He cupped her cheek tenderly, then asked, “Why did you reject me?”
