Summary
Gustave hates Verso for letting him die. A sentiment that is shared by a lot of Lumiere. But when he realizes that his feelings towards the man may have accidentally caused a lot of problems for Verso including putting him in danger… he can’t help but feel guilty. At Sciel and Lune’s request, he pretends to forge a friendship with him. Trying to show others that he’s forgiven him. And that they should do the same. But the longer he spends with him, the more he realizes he actually enjoys spending time with Verso. And doesn’t want the time he spends with him to be fake anymore.

Summary
A protector. A strong, smart, loving brother. A dreamer. A joker. A sacrifice she had never asked for and a loss that had shattered her.
There! She’d found it. The chroma was right there, bright and bountiful and so much closer than she would have thought after all these months. Maelle grasped it and pulled, eyes screwed shut and sweat beading on her brow.
Behind her, Verso made a strangled sound. Monaco clattered to his feet, crying out, and Esquie took to the air calling, “Mon ami!”

Summary
Maelle is out of her brother’s Canvas and so is Aline, and at the end of it all she feels as alone as she had before all of this started. She drifts through the days, and each one appears to go by like sap dripping off tree bark. Minutes tick by at a glacial pace, and yet they tick by all the same.
---
Post Verso's ending. Maelle steals the Canvas and runs away in order to try to give her painted family a proper chance at life. Mostly focused on Maelle and Painted Verso and their respective struggles with what it means to be alive. Will feature some OCs as I take the concept of Painters and Writers and run with it based on the rather limited worldbuilding that the game sprinkles in on all that

Summary
Maelle brings Verso back to Lumière in a catatonic state, unresponsive and unwilling to let himself live. While she has no greater wish than for him to happily live out the rest of his years as a mortal man, she can't trust him with mortality until she's sure he's found his will to live—and he can't exactly do that if he sleeps every day away until his inevitable death by starvation.
Gustave, wary of the man who was prepared to enact their world's erasure, is less than enthused about the idea of attempting to wake him; but with no one else seeing any success, and with Maelle's emotional well-being on the line, he has no choice but to try.
