Summary
-Mydeimos, King of Kremnos, god of Strife, Lance of Fury, the agony this world needs.-
[…]
-…you’re a liar, Mydei.-
[And nobody told me I’d be begging for relief
when what is silent to you feels like it’s screaming to me.
Well, nobody told me I’d get tired of myself
when it all looks like heaven, but it feels like hell.

–I was going to ask if, after we retrieve Nikador’s Coreflame, you were going to tell him.-

Summary
-I thought you were afraid of heights.-
-I always feel safe with you, even up high.-
[Love will not save you. But I will hold your hand while you save yourself. And in a world that sometimes seems devoid of goodness, in a world that sometimes feels too heavy to bear, I think that is all we really need. Someone by our side. Someone who grounds us. Someone who will quietly hug us for twenty minutes straight while we figure it all out. I think that is all anyone really needs. Someone who sees them. Someone who stays.
-Bianca Sparacino, “The strength in our scars”]
Or: after saving Kachina, somewhere really up high at the Stadium, a conversation happens – and then another

Summary
–I’m sick and tired of this shitty Dream already.-
-…and you also have someone waiting for you outside of here.-

we have the right to be here, to make us warm in the coldest season.
You have the right to be here.
-Neil Gaiman, What you need to be warm]
Or: on the other side of the Dream, Aventurine discovers things - and Kakavasha, somewhere deep down, learns to hope again

-Maybe, life slumbers because slumber gives life a moment of respite from its horrors.-
-…what if slumber brings even more horrors, then?-
[I see it like this: now below the square root there is you, and above there is me. Or below the square root there is everything we've experienced alone, and together, and above is the two of us lying down laughing at the past.

Summary
Why do you go away? So that you can come back.
So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too.
Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.

Summary
“Drink.”
No drink if you want. No give it a try, dandelion wine is the best. There was no room left for Flins to say no. And frankly, Flins didn’t want to say no anyway.
Flins took a natural sip from the glass; not too much, and not too little. Just enough for his throat to bobble and to draw Varka’s attention to it.
For the first time, he was close enough to what he wanted to hear. Varka might finally shape his movements, his choices, and Flins wanted it. He wanted to surrender his choices to Varka’s hands. He wanted it badly.
Varka was a very accommodating person. Always watching, always adjusting, so no one had to feel uncomfortable. Whether for the Knights or for his friends, he never changed.
Flins believed it was a beautiful thing. Humans were fragile and needed that coddling. But he was not human. He needed Varka to stop asking him what he wanted and to start giving him orders.

Summary
"Tell me a story."
Varka's chest against his back. More skin and heat than Flins knows how to handle, yet he's still greedy for more. One scarred arm circles his waist; Varka's head rests on his shoulder. He turns his face against the crook of Flins’ neck. More kisses peppering cool skin.
“Tell me about the Lantern Fae of Nod Krai.”
[Varka learns about Flins' past]

Summary
There was a strange sense of feeling.. proud to have Albedo looked at the spaceship. Aether can only think that it was probably his own eagerness to show everything of himself to Albedo, and it’s always flattering to see how much interest Albedo held in his eyes at something that is related to him. Aether felt seen.
or; Aether and Albedo take a walk at Starsand Shoal, and visit the spaceship.
