    Summary

    Wolfwood could ignore it. Or, well, maybe he could have. If this were any other city. Any other night. Any other song, even, because it’s one that Vash knows—Vash, whose eyes light up even behind his stupid glasses, even more bright cyan than the neon, than clear desert sky at high noon.

    Because that’s the problem. Has been all along. That it can’t be, could never be, anyone other than Vash the goddamn Stampede who looks at him like that.

    Between the start of Julai and the end of it, Vash and Wolfwood see if either one of them can get drunk. Or: a last supper, of sorts.

    Summary

    Nicholas realizes they haven't eaten in hours when his stomach lurches in loud delight at the sight of food. Vash nudges the basket in his direction wordlessly and settles back against the stitched padding, shoulders broad, straight, as he watches the rest of the bar with a distant expression. The ice bobs inside his glass when he shifts weight to the side—like this his profile is shadowed and starkly defined, a straight nose and lashes for ages and highset cheekbones, features handsome enough to tempt anyone. Nicholas polishes half of the food with little effort, and can't help himself:

    "So you're an obstetrician now."

    Summary

    Astarion's blood is dark, left to sit idle in his veins for far too long. Whether flowing from a vein or an artery, his blood never sprays, just oozes.

    Maybe Astarion is just rubbing off on him, but Wyll has to wonder how it tastes. Has to wonder what it would mean, to drink it.

    Summary

    Vash kisses him and it’s like dying. Not the pain of it, but the certainty. Like this was inevitable, despite the odds, despite the vastness of the universe, the coil of time, the fact that Vash is a myth long forgotten and Wolfwood is just one human among millions scattered through the stars. Vash threads his fingers through Wolfwood’s coarse hair, tugs him even closer. Pours the past five centuries of grief into the slide of their lips, licking into the heat of Wolfwood’s mouth, swallowing down the salt of communion wafers and the bitter aftertaste of wine. A mouthful of holiness for the most damned man in the universe.

    ***

    Five hundred years after the end of the world, Wolfwood finds him.

    Summary

    It's been three years. Vash is haunted by the events of the past, sometimes literally, and still coming to terms with his grief. He's... not doing a very good job. But then a flash of gold and a ghostly whisper open his mind to other possibilities...

    Summary

    Summary

    Wolfwood carries a body.

    Vash is a walking death wish. A race between self-sacrifice and skill, and in all Wolfwood’s shitty years on this shit-ass planet he’s never met a man with so much of each.

    So maybe Vash taking a bullet to the head for him shouldn’t have been a surprise.

    Summary

    Correspondence between Margrave Sylvain Jose Gautier and Duke Felix Hugo Fraldarius, Advisor to King Dimitri I “The Great” (excerpts, translated and transcripted), 11XX - 11XX

     

     

    Amongst the numerous stories of the last Margrave Gautier’s scandalous liaisons stands out one in particular: the now-famous relationship he entertained with Duke Fraldarius, First Advisor to King Dimitri the Great. Though a mere sample from a total of more than 150 letters, these last remaining excerpts from their epistolary correspondence depict a more accurate picture of the tale of romance we now find summed up in history books.

    Summary

    "The time required to sketch portraits closely correlates with one's mood. I could spend half a day sketching Huffman, while I might only need three strokes of the pencil to sketch Kaeya — one for the face, one for the eyepatch string... and one for the eyepatch."

     

     

     

    Or the tale of Albedo's oceans to Kaeya's stars, and the skies between them.

    Summary

    Xingqiu had told Chongyun, all those years ago, most of the truth - that he’d gotten his Vision in the rainstorm that had pummelled Liyue Harbor while Chongyun had been recuperating from his disastrous Dragonspine expedition, that perhaps even the Archons had known not to separate Xingqiu and Chongyun in any way. It had been half a joke, but Chongyun had accepted it with a pleased smile.

    He doesn’t know what it says about him that he remembers, with aching clarity, that moment where he’d been so coldly angry about not being able to protect Chongyun that he’d attracted the attention of the Archons themselves. Every time he touches his Vision, he gets a flash of that frigid, relentless part of himself.

    And it feels ugly.

    .

    Xingqiu learns, over the years, what it means to have a Hydro Vision.

    Summary

    The first gig Dorothea helps Sylvain land is an extended stunt cameo in a stoner flick, a chance to fully commit to self-parody, playing a washed-up child star turned drug dealer. The wardrobe department outfits him in sunglasses and Hawaiian shirts. He grows some scruff and behaves like an acerbic dirtbag for two weeks. “Pitch-perfect casting,” writes the Tribune. Says Entertainment Weekly: “A familiar face in a nearly unrecognizable performance, Gautier looks like he’s having so much fun being loathsome.”

    Ex-child actor Sylvain Jose Gautier makes a professional and romantic comeback.

    Summary

    When the flow of money follows family lines, oftentimes marriage is not born of love as much as it is of convenience—especially when a family with a Legacy is involved.

    It is in the late autumn months when the sole heir to the Edgeworth Legacy arrives in town to help a few dear friends—also a family with a formidable Legacy—settle into their new estate. None of them are prepared to meet their new gossipy countryside neighbors, or the unorthodox clan that is the Feys, or the nobody with no wealth or living family who the Feys so kindly house, Phoenix Wright. Indeed, under normal circumstances, the paths of such opposite persons with such different connections might never have crossed.

    So why can't Miles Edgeworth and Phoenix Wright seem to escape one another?

    He offered himself to Kasuga because it felt like a foregone conclusion, but now that he’s here, what could they gain from him that they don’t already have? All of their drive, all that passion and bullish persistence—it’s like holding up a lit match to a burning building and expecting it to make a difference. What does this mean to you? What can I give you? What am I worth?
