    Summary

    In the aftermath of the second Storm, a displaced teacher and a disgraced researcher once attempted to find home in each other again. One taught survival. One taught dreams.

    Now, in the wake of the third Storm, they gather in a Foundation gymnasium where institutional light learns to shine like aurora fire, where science cradles your dreams, where children practice circus tricks while adults practice the harder choreography of wanting permanence again.

    This is not recovering what was lost. This is archaeology of the heart – digging the love that’s always been there from rubble, making forever out of whatever pieces refusing to disappear.

    OR

    Rayashki and Plesetsk families meet to run a winter circus, chasing the season's brief magic while stumbling across something less seasonal: family.

    Summary

    Once upon a time, three women tried to make a film about justice. One wrote it. One shot it. One bled for it.

    Only two of them made it to the credits.

    Now Qi Xing sits in a prison cell with a projector buzzing at her feet and all the footage Noire never deleted. The rooftop takes. The fight scenes. The parts where they forgot they were pretending it was just a film, pretending the ending could still be happy, pretending they weren’t already breaking offscreen.

    This is not about fixing the story. This is about watching it – frame by frame – until the grief stops overstaying its runtime.

    (It won’t.)

    Or,

    Windsong is a clueless mess of a woman in love, and Vila gently and patiently helps her navigate through her feelings, and nudges her in the right direction.

    Summary

    Nahida squeezes his hand.

    “I sense a great loneliness in you,” she murmurs. “You have recently lost someone important—someone you are not yet sure you can learn to live without.”

    Al-Haitham doesn’t reply.

    “I understand loneliness,” Nahida says softly. “I understand the pain of having no one but yourself to keep you company.

    “In return for my power, I will take your loneliness. You will no longer have to worry about whether you can live without her. You will already know you can.”

    (What is a peaceful life if not one without pain?)

    “The Master Diviner believes I will kill you,” Jing Yuan tells her, wiping tears from the corner of his eyes. “But-”

    A brief examination on the obligations of Xianzhou warriors and how they prepare for their deaths, since being mara-struck is an inevitability. Featuring Jingliu.

    Summary

    “How precious are your futures?” asks the Sphinx. “How dear to you is the path you wish to take?” She bares her teeth in a cruel smile, and they all take an involuntary step back.

    “Wait,” says Laios suddenly. “Look at her teeth!”

    Yes, Laios,” says Izutsumi. “We’ve all noticed the fangs. This really isn’t the time—”

    “No,” says Laios, “those back teeth. She has molars- grinders. That means she’s an omnivore. But she can’t leave this circle, and you saw how nothing ventures within miles of this spot. I bet she hasn’t had anything other than…” he swallows, waving a hand vaguely at the pile of ex-adventurers, “...meat… for years .”

    “So…what?” asks Izutsumi.

    “Remember how good those marshmallows were?” asks Laios. “And that was only after a couple days without much of a varied diet.”

    “You want to bet all of our lives,” Chilchuck says slowly, “on making a Sphinx a nice dessert?”

    Laios smiles.

    Summary

    “You can’t be serious. Do you actually not know?” Rika takes one look at him and groans. “Arceus help me. Have you never searched yourself on the Internet?” Rika pauses and makes a face. “On second thought, don’t do that. I think it might traumatize you.”

    “I don’t understand.” He really doesn’t. Why would people like him? He’s plain. Average. Unremarkable. He’s not entertaining like Iono or creative like Brassius or friendly like Rika. He can’t even pull off the mysterious, cool aura that Grusha has.

    What does he have to offer?

    Or: Larry, through the years.

    “Is it him?”
    Not looking up, Haru nods. “I’m meeting him for dinner.”
    “Want to kill him instead?”
    Around them, the mundane noises of life continue. Darts hitting the board with familiar little thwacks, the crack of cue against ball, groans of defeat and shouts of satisfaction. “What?”
    “Do you,” says Akechi, in that cold, clinical voice of his, “want to kill your fiancé?”

    Summary

    Abstract: this article provides a dissection of a case study four years in the making from the Kingdom of Khura'in as to ways in which court systems can be reformed to radically change the functioning of a country's justice system. It lays out the intellectual heritage of the system under construction in Khura'in and provides anecdotal and statistical evidence surrounding its operation.

    Four years after the revolution, Apollo and Nahyuta reflect on how far they've come. They have an audience, of sorts.

    Summary

    While out celebrating their first wedding anniversary since Daley's release from prison, the Vigils revisit an area of London that is quite familiar to Daley and a complete mystery to Evie.

    Ever intrigued, Evie has no reservations about learning more about what had been part of her beloved husband's life for so long. But talking about the past doesn't mean putting it behind them, and the thought of it lingering forever has become an almost insurmountable fear for Daley. Evie's willing to help him face it—and to finally talk about just how they mean to move forward.

    She isn't sure how this discussion will go; all Evie knows is that whatever path they take, it will be together.
