    Summary

    "Club 33."

    A brand-new nightclub just opened in Downtown Lumière!

    People have come from far and wide to dance their cares away, lost in a swirling sea of lights, bodies, and thumping music. It's not the type of place one typically meets the love of their life. More likely, they'll just meet a passing fancy, who breezes out just as quickly as they breeze in.

    Not the type of place Gustave would typically go, and to be honest, Verso isn't too keen on the scene, either. But when they're each invited by their friends, what's the harm in tagging along and forgetting their own troubles?

    After all, everyone can stand to cut loose every once in a while.

    Summary

    Back when Verso still believed himself to be just another face in Lumière’s crowd, he was becoming quite impatient with waiting for his soulmate to appear so they could bring colours into each other’s lives. Then, Verso learnt the truth and knew that, in a world where no one was supposed to go through life alone, he was a fake made to exist without anyone to complete his soul.

    It’s more than half a century later when fate mocks him again.

    Summary

    Verso is lying on the stone floor, almost indistinguishable from the broken bodies around him. Monoco flies down to him from a balcony; his feet hit the floor as he returns to his usual gestral self.

    He thinks the landing was very graceful. Deserving of applause, even.

    Verso doesn’t even try to look at him, missing the whole performance, and this is even more frustrating.

    And… concerning.

    Or: Verso is lost on Sirène’s island. Thankfully, Monoco is always able to find him.

    Summary

    Verso is convinced that the expeditioners were growing weaker because they were gradually losing their dynamic. Verso hasn’t sensed another alpha strong enough to be a threat in decades. He has also never met a beta or an omega who could match his dynamic.

    Enter: Expedition 33— with his headstrong soon-to-present alpha sister, a strong female alpha that makes Verso’s skin crawl, an intriguing beta who keeps trying to sleep with him, and Gustave, who says his dynamic must be broken because he’s never presented and is apparently immune to alpha commands.

    Verso accompanies Expedition 33 and, against his better judgment, ends up saving Gustave, the only person Verso has met on his more than six decades on the Continent who can stand the strength of his dynamic and commands— a development which confuses them both and throws a wrench in Verso’s well-laid plans.

    However, conspiracies and a tragic fire will completely change the fate of the Factions.

    A childhood painting becomes the scene of a terrible war
    And a story that never stops being written.

    Summary

    Alicia would never be able to say for sure where the memories of the girl she was a copy of ended and her own began. There was no dividing line, no way to distinguish them. The memories that she would learn weren't her own were just as clear as the ones that were hers. But the first one that was truly hers…


    Life before and after the Fracture, from the perspective of the Painted Alicia Dessendre.

    Summary

    “I missed you,” Verso breathes into Gustave’s neck in lieu of a greeting.

    “I hope you did,” Gustave murmurs. “I could barely think of anything else but you claiming me in that bathroom for the last few days, I couldn’t have been the only one distracted.”

    Verso grins, satisfaction stirring in his chest at the revelation he had such an effect on Gustave. That this impossible man is his – body, mind, and soul.

    Summary

    “You don’t erase damage,” Verso said; “you learn to work with it. Fill the cracks gently. Help it hold together again.”

    ////

    Six months after the explosion at the lab, Gustave returns to work with an arm gone and a brain still far from healed. The university told him to take more time. His friends tried to pull him back into the world, but he’s learned how to turn them all away.

    On his first day back, he meets Verso Dessendre; quiet, steady, with scars of his own and a beautiful streak of silver in his hair. A man who restores paintings for a living, yet struggles to restore himself.

    As they grow closer, Gustave begins to wonder if Verso might be right.
    Maybe some damage isn’t the end, but the start of something worth holding together.

    Summary

    The girl’s shoulders hunch again. An expression is battling on her face. Guilt again, and fear, and shame. And then faintly, in the soft turn of her cheek, commiseration. She watches Gustave for a long, sad moment, and then turns to a new page in the notepad. She starts writing something, and then stops, glancing furtively at Gustave before scribbling it out. On a new line she instead writes in big bold letters:

    Maelle.

     

    OR

     

    Gustave is the local mechanic of Lumiere, an idyllic coastal village far away from the chaos and conflict of Paris. Struggling with his recent injury and the loss of a good friend, he's not quite prepared when a family moves into the abandoned Manor on the edge of town.

    He's definitely not prepared for their children.
