Summary
Nicholas believes that moving to a new city and starting over from nothing might quiet the parts of himself that have felt unfamiliar since his brain injury. And in some ways, it does.
But there are nights when that sense of ease does not come from the city or from anything he has built for himself there. It comes from the painter across the balcony, whose presence begins to feel like the one thing that reach him where his own mind cannot.

Summary
Wriothesley's ruts are a matter of convenience. No one else is trustworthy enough to tend to Meropide's administrator without doing something untoward and that's what Neuvillette's continued to tell himself. He's the best person for the job—in a position of power one step above Wriothesley, but with no need to take advantage. It's transactional and works just fine for them both.
Until his own heat comes around. Things aren't quite so simple, then.

Summary
“It’s not even that bad,” Taki says, not as if he’s trying to convince the rest of them, but as if he actually believes four people to a hotel room is acceptable at this point in their careers. “Just like our __ dorm.”
“The difference is we chose to all sleep in one room at that dorm,” Yudai replies. “We weren’t forced to.”
