    Summary

    “You’re really going to do this,” Bruno asks calmly, just as he always does. It’s both a question and an observation. A feeble attempt to make Leone see rationality incompatible with his worldview.

    Leone sighs, methodically looping white sports tape around his knuckles and palms. It’s a dead giveaway of his internal conflict, the reason Bruno will challenge him every time. In his most private moments, he dares to hope that one day Bruno will snap and drag him from that dingy basement, kicking and screaming.

    But, for tonight: “Yes, I am.”

    Bruno nods, curt, and pulls a slip of paper from his pocket. “Do your best, then. I put a lot of money on you.”

    Summary

    “The environment is hardly ideal, I know. I apologize. But… ” Click, clack, Dio’s heels tap against the hard stone floor. Click. Clack. Click clack. “I’m sure you’ll forgive it, in time. If I had the time, I would have brought you elsewhere - to a more familiar landscape. Something more comfortable, perhaps, but… well. You’ll understand soon enough.” The air itself is still and quiet, though. Poised. Waiting. As though the night itself is holding its breath.

    “Yes… I’m sure you’ll forgive this undignified way of welcoming you. ...JoJo.”

    Summary

    Keqing’s gaze travels to her hair, where it ultimately rests on the hard, black horns adorned with two thin red stripes atop her head.

    Curiosity has been tearing at her—gnawing past her flesh and down to her bones until she just can’t ignore it anymore. Her words catch in her throat, pausing, before tumbling out.

    “What do your… horns feel like?”

    “Ah-ha! Not true. Time is the only thing we have.” Venti refuses to let Xiao meet his end so easily. He doesn’t know Xiao, not really. But it’s just so frustrating to see him with freedom right between his fingers and still refuse to hold on. He could if only he tried.

    Venti will drag Xiao into tomorrow, even if he has to do it kicking and screaming.

    -

    Stuck in a time loop where he succumbs to his karmic debt, Xiao struggles to see the point in moving forward. Venti struggles to save him.
