    Summary

    “You’d spoil your children rotten.”

    Columbina laughed, light and musical. “And you’d make an excellent co-parent. You’d fix their toys and tell them bedtime stories full of formulas.”

    “I would not.”

    “You would,” she teased, flicking a dot of blue paint onto Sandrone’s cheekplate. “And you’d pretend you didn’t enjoy it.”

    The Kuuhenkis swirled around them then, each glowing a different hue due to the paint dyes — blue, gold, rose, and green — forming a halo that painted their faces in color. Columbina leaned back, eyes still closed– Sandrone missed seeing her eyes, but she did not say this outloud but there was one unforgettable thing about her former colleague, her expression was always serene.

    “This,” she whispered, “is what it must feel like to be human. To make a mess, and call it love.”

    Sandrone looked at Columbina for a long time, a small smile tugging on the corner of her lips — then quietly returned to cleaning the last jar of dye, her movements slower now, gentler. And when a Kuuhenki clumsily dropped a droplet of color onto her metal palm, she didn’t flinch this time. She let it stain.

    Summary

    Columbina had left. She had left just as suddenly and forcefully as she had first inserted herself uninvited into Sandrone’s life. Still, when the Palestar Edict came from above, Sandrone could not help herself. She was going to Nod-Krai.

    Or: Sandrone and Columbina disastrously fail at feelings and communication (but somehow things still work out).

    Summary

    Jahoda claims she doesn't visit for the food. Ineffa thinks that's statistically improbable.

    Or, Jahoda makes Ineffa inefficient, and she welcomes it with open arms.

    Because saying "I love you" is just a very complicated way of saying "you make my probability matrices go haywire, and I wouldn't have it any other way".

    Summary

    Summary

    "But I'm not just anyone, right? So let me in, 11," she whispered, leaning forward just enough that her breath tickled at 11's neck. "Let me see you, all of you."

    After a week long leave from military service, Trigger had finally confessed her feelings to Soldier 11.

    Her comrade was never good with words, so she chose to show how she felt with actions instead.
