Summary
The climb is steeper than Sciel remembers, and the metal groans softly beneath her as she ascends the final ladder. Her hand ghosts along rusted beams warped by time and ink, passing the old scratched initials—lovers used to come up here, the letterings long since faded with the oxidation.
She almost laughs at herself. What was she hoping for? That the room might still feel the same? That she might feel the same?
Then she steps inside, and the moment her eyes adjust—
“Sciel,” Lune says in a breath caught somewhere in between. Her guitar disappears in a flurry of chroma particles. “Of course you’d run into me up here.”
or, Maelle stays in the canvas and life goes on, just not as Sciel once imagined.

Summary
Zoey notices it first.
There's something different about Rumi recently that she can't ignore. Zoey can't figure out what it was, and it's eating her alive. Time for Operation Observe Rumi!
(Mira gets in on it) (Rumi accepts her new traits, eventually, not without teasing.)
5 times Rumi doesn't realize she acts like a cat, plus one time she's embraces it.

Summary
She would know her anywhere, be it in dreams, a passerby, a story. It’s not a ghost. Bright-eyed, sun-kissed, and life-worn, she’s different in all the ways Maomao thought she would be after all these years, in all the ways she hoped she would be despite the tragedy that seemed set in stone for her and hers.
Quietly, as though an earnest prayer, unspoken but felt all the same: Shisui.
Or: Ten years after Shisui leaves her, Maomao finds herself in a nameless village, chasing the trail of a ghost.

Summary
When you put starlight up against the purple rot of a demon’s skin, it sears. That is why beneath their blades the demons turn to ash. It is a cleansing, an exorcism—
It is the greatest kindness Rumi thinks she’ll ever be allowed, the pyre she’s born on being set alight by the two halves of her heart who no longer recognize her heartbeat as something good.
(Or, alternatively, Rumi thinks the only way to be good is to take herself out of the equation — again, and again, and again.)
