    Summary

    The war ended beneath the ginkgo tree, but peace is harder to learn.
    Six months after Lord Saito’s fall, quiet has settled over the house at the base of Mount Yotei. Atsu works the forge; Kiku fills the rooms with laughter; and Oyuki, once the feared Kitsune, visits often enough that it no longer feels like visiting.
    Every hammer strike, every shared meal, every returning visit: together they keep building a life the dead would recognize as love.
    In the hush between tea and firelight, they learn that living is its own kind of courage.

    Summary

After the two quell a lingering ghostly echo, Isadora lures Rose to a secret midnight gathering where flirtation turns into a charged slow dance and a first kiss. As sparks fly between them, Rose’s final vision warns the haunting — and their connection — has only just begun.

    Summary

    For the second time, a hand is extended towards you. Except this time there's no urgency, only an odd sense of reassurance among chaos. A second hand settles gently around your elbow, carefully guiding you to your feet. Your limbs feel wobbly, your mind racing to keep up with the adrenaline that's beginning to fade into something unfamilar. You stand awkwardly, blinking as the world tilts slightly, the ground seeming to shift beneath your feet. But Player 120's grip remains steady, a quiet anchor in this moment of disarray.

    "Thanks," you mutter, hoarse. The words are not nearly enough to match the weight of what's just transpired, but you say it anyway. Small, but everything you can offer.

    She doesn't say anything right away. Instead, she just nods, lips pressed into a thin line and you sense it's not about her needing your thanks. The way she threw herself back across the line, how she handled the weight without a second thought. There's a silent resolve that speaks volumes and intrigues you all the same.

    Summary

    How did it get to this? Blood coated on your skin and murder seeping from each wall, echoes of bullets in your ears and the warmth of a hand in yours; enveloping, all-encompassing, larger and softer than any other that’s held you. And blood. So, so much blood. How did you get here?

    The cheerful buzzing of the circle is louder than life itself. Hyun-ju’s hand is coated in the phosphorescence of it, miles apart with eyes that pierce right through you. The blue reflections on her cheek make bile rise in your throat; red illuminates your face when your number is called, and red coats your eyes when she dares meet them.

    Summary

    “Hi,” breathes Shadowheart, her voice low and weak. It is all she offers, as she looks steadfast ahead, refusing Lake’s gaze.

    There is a vicious and urgent thought burning like white-hot metal to exploit, to hurt her while she is vulnerable. Fool, it whispers as it tickles through her veins, spreads through her bloodstream like a poison. It spawns images of Shadowheart’s pretty pink lips twisted into an expression of anguish, her eyes heavy and wide with panic and pain. It entices her with the promise of pleasure, the rush from the absolute feeling of control and power over another – a second of ecstasy, of peace, as the life would leave Shadowheart’s eyes.

    The terrible urge is paired with an unpleasant, sticky feeling of shame, and Lake hurries to tear her eyes away from Shadowheart.

    “Hi,” says Lake, letting their steps fall in tandem in silence, too afraid to trust her mind to say anything else.

    .

    Or,
    a brief excerpt from the party's visit to Moonrise, and what it means for Shadowheart and The Dark Urge.

    Summary

    “So how did you know?”

    The question comes out of the blue, breaks the sleepy silence that had settled between you. Your thoughts were elsewhere, muddled and quiet for once, still a little high off of Ortega’s hands, but her words drag them back to the present.

    “How did I know what?” you ask. You can’t tell what thread she’s pulling on, can’t even dig into her head for answers, so you have to find out the old fashioned way.

    “That you’re… Well, not straight,” Ortega explains. A little sheepish smile; “I guess I never asked you what you call yourself.”

    Summary

    It took some time, but she was able to calm the thirst’s roar to a whimper, then aim it. Neve vowed from then on she'd use this hunger as a tool since brute strength and heightened senses came with it. From then on, she'd never feed from an innocent again. She will find the cure, or die with the ones responsible as the final cleanse. For Brom and for Rana.

    “I’m fine.”

    “Convincing.” Neve’s eyes harden. Rook’s brow furrows. Seconds pass.

    Rook blinks first and drops her eyes with a sigh. “I’ll find a way to be.”
