    Summary

    While Mydei had been smiling at the camera, Phainon’s eyes were glued to Mydei’s face, an adoring smile on his lips. It amazes him sometimes, how obvious Phainon’s affection for him was.

    “And miss out on one of Amphoreus’ top ten most beautiful faces?” Phainon teases, pressing a kiss on Mydei’s cheek. It’s Mydei’s turn to be flustered it seems, a reversal of the flirting Mydei had initiated earlier. “No thank you.”

    “HKS,” Mydei huffs, then bends down. Phainon watches curiously, but he catches on quick when he sees Mydei scoop up enough snow to roll into a ball. “You have five seconds.”

    “Wait!” Phainon laughs, already running for shelter. He runs in front of a wall and his eyes widen when Mydei throws the snowball so hard that it explodes on the wall next to Phainon’s head, leaving smoke behind. “Holy Kephale—that could’ve killed me!”

    “No, it couldn’t,” Mydei denies calmly, readying his next snowball. Phainon eeps, rushing to hide behind a tree trunk this time. “Brace yourself, husband. We shall have a duel to the death.”

    ——

    or: mydei and phainon enjoy their first winter as a married couple.

    Summary

    If you were to ask the merfolk of Kremnos who is the strongest mer in the reef, you’d get one unified answer.

    “Definitely His Highness.”

    And yet, when a brave soul—a merling of only twelve migrations—asks the strongest mer the same question, the ocean itself seems to pause out of bewilderment.

    “It’s Phainon,” Mydei answers without a lick of hesitation.

    Phainon, a forager of no particular lineage. Not one heart still swimming has ever seen that mer hold a weapon sharper than blunted shell sickles to harvest kelp with.

    Or, Phainon is gentle until he isn't.

    Summary

    Mydei hadn’t noticed earlier, but Phainon is bleeding sluggishly from a cut on his bicep. Because of him.

    “I’m… sorry," he sighs. “Your help was unnecessary—“ Phainon opens his mouth to retort, but Mydei cuts him off. “But I appreciate it.”

    All at once, Phainon seems to deflate—his indignation little more than ice melting beneath Mydei’s gaze. Blue eyes dart to the rubble that was once a doorway as he sighs, low and heavy.

    “There has to be a second staircase,” he says weakly. “Right?”

    Or: Hours before a festival to Mnestia, Phainon and Mydei find themselves trapped in a temple during the dead of winter.
