    Summary

    “I didn’t want to die,” is what she admits, mouth quirking at the sight of an old neighbor wobbling on crutches.

    She wonders how long it’ll take before she can take a stroll on her own.

    “But you thought you were going to.”

    She looks at her physical therapist, his bulky frame, the scar running diagonally across his face. She nods. He understands.

    “Everything else, good or bad, happy or sad…” She considers her hand and knows it’ll listen to her by the end of today’s session because it’s her hand, and she knows what it can do. “It all feels like a—a gift.”

    OR: Suletta navigates life after Quiet Zero and finds that it's so much more than she hoped it would be.

    Summary

    It's intoxicating, knowing that she has Suletta in the palm of her hand. Miorine has never been the power-hungry type, but knowing the hold that she has on Suletta makes something come over her. She can't help but let the words on the tip of her tongue escape.

    "When you think about doing this with me," Miorine starts, her hand moving to gently cup Suletta's cheek to keep her from turning away in embarrassment, "what are we doing?"

    Summary

    “I just… want to be able to give you something.”

    “You don’t have to give me anything, Suletta. That’s not how this works, remember?”

    Suletta swallows. “I know, I just… I don’t know,” she finishes paradoxically. Miorine understands her. Her fiancée reaches for her face, thumb grazing the tender skin beneath her eye.

    “You’re not my muscle, Suletta. You already do enough for me. You… you love me. You’re there for me when I need you. You’re all I want. Not what you can give me.”

    Suletta and Miorine discuss their wedding.

    Summary

    After two weeks in an exhausted coma, Suletta finally wakes up.

    (“Oh.” Something in Suletta’s face turns sly; for better or worse, this too is terribly attractive. “You missed me?” Her head tilts to the side in a slow motion, eyes scrunching in delight and rustling her pillow. “I’m sorry.”

    None of it has ever been her fault, but Miorine is pretty sure she’s mostly joking anyway, mouth curling up into something more lopsided than usual. Miorine wants to say something else, but she’s already made a fatal error: her eyes get stuck on that little smile, zeroing in for more than a few seconds. She wants— )

    OR:

    Five times Suletta kisses Miorine, and the first time Miorine kisses Suletta.

    Summary

    “Why are you here?” whispers Himiko.

    Ochako swallows. There's a new intensity in her voice that she's never heard before. Quiet but hot, like a white candle flame.

    She rubs her face with both hands, taking the moment to regain some semblance of composure. Lowers her palms to her knees, eyes closed, and says, so softly that she barely hears herself, “Because… I can't forget your beautiful smile, and I keep hoping to see it again.”

    **

    Or, Ochako knows that earning Himiko's trust after she's released from prison will take time, and she's determined to do whatever it takes.
