    Summary

    Mydei rolls his eyes toward Phainon, tugging on his shoulder. “Lean into me,” he says, ignoring the red flush staining Phainon’s cheeks.

    “Sorry.” Phainon adjusts himself, obeying once again. “I just—I didn’t think you’d—”

    Mydei narrows his eyes. “It’s just a photoshoot,” he says, as much for Phainon as for himself, because this is the thing of dreams. Of nightmares. Being this close to Phainon, pressed into him, breathing in natural scent of him, is almost too much. “Relax, Deliverer, or you’ll strain something, and then you won’t be able to spar with me tomorrow.”

    Phainon and Mydei help Castorice with a photoshoot.

    Summary

    He betrayed Aventurine because he believed; believed that he had a clever plan that hinged on him doing as predicted. The gambler still thinks Ratio doesn’t trust him but that couldn’t be further than the truth, if this is not his ultimate form of trust, Ratio doesn’t know what is. A portion of his conscience stings at the fact that Aventurine genuinely thinks that Ratio dislikes him so much that he would betray him for knowledge, but the gambler had a way of walking around with blinders on when it comes to himself, and his own self-worth.

    There is no such thing as death in dreams, only dormancy. If Aventurine chooses to succumb to the Nihility, to give in to the eternal dream, then his physical body in the real world will never awaken.

    There are no dice for him to roll to decide his fate this time. The choice is entirely in his hands. 

    Aventurine escapes from the Nihility to find that his gamble has turned out even better than he expected. He can’t shake the feeling that things are a little too good to be true though.

    Summary

    “—Aglaea, is the new guy here yet?”

    Aglaea looks up at the man standing behind Phainon, then back at him. “Phainon, meet—”

    Phainon doesn’t turn around, doesn’t have to. He could never forget that voice.

    “Mydei.”

    Or; Ever landed the job of your dreams only to find out that your new boss is your high school crush, the same one who rejected you almost a decade ago? No? Guess it's just Phainon's luck.

    Summary

    "Excuse me," Mydei replies with a deep softness that sits heavy in Phainon's chest, "are you asking me to stop?"

    Phainon blinks. He can't believe his ears.

    "Stop?" A chuckle falls from his parted lips. "Oh, Mydeimos, I believe we've only just begun."

    Mydei smiles, a true, beautiful thing, and cups Phainon's chin. "Do you want me to lead, or would you prefer it if I kept following?"

    Swallowing thickly, Phainon tangled his fingers in the small hairs on Mydei's neck and murmured against his lips. "I want whatever you are willing to give to me. Anything."

    "Then," Mydei rumbled and pressed their lips together firmly this time, "let us continue our dance without the watchful eye of allies and enemies alike."

    Phainon nods minutely. "Lead the way."

    OR

    A special "nighttime" gala that is held only once every century commences. Phainon is determined to to confess his feelings to a certain Kremnoan prince. It's all a game, their usual back and forth, until it isn't, and both of them find themselves in far deeper than they could have imagined.

    Summary

    The mystery hot man sitting diagonally to him keeps checking him out. Or at least Phainon thinks he’s checking him out. He keeps looking pointedly in Phainon’s direction, and hasn't turned a page of his book in 5 minutes. At one point he stares at Phainon so hard that a wrinkle forms in between his perfect angular nose bridge.

    He won’t lie, that’s very flattering. Phainon has been told that he’s a good looking guy, though he doesn’t make it his entire personality or anything. And if the circumstances were any different, he’d tap it. The man is insanely attractive. But this isn’t about him! This is about Castorice and her potential scammer girlfriend. He had to stay focused! He can’t afford to get distracted by pretty boys!

    Meeting online friends in-person is a scary thing, and Phainon can’t rest unless he’s sure his friend Castorice is safe. So he does what any good friend would do, he follows her.
    Meeting online friends in-person is a scary thing, and Mydei can’t rest unless he’s sure his friend Cipher is safe. So he does what any good friend would do, he follows her.

    After all, you’d never know if a weird, suspicious looking guy is secretly spying on them.
