Summary
Tamamori is breaching a certain line, crossing the border between light and shadow; stepping out of the shelter of a roof and into a pit of endless rain.
But that’s where Kawase sits, alone. In a narrow abyss, where the rainy season continues on a loop.

Summary
Kawase is always observing, paying all of his attention to this roninsei who shows no signs of noticing an ounce of his concealed affection. That’s fine, Kawase believes. This is how it’s supposed to be.
But Kawase can’t deny, at least to himself, that he has failed to kill the part of himself that still yearns.

Summary
Cain can guess his intentions within the blink of an eye, and he moves faster than his mind could keep up. “Don’t go,” those words slip past Cain’s lips before he could think, like a plea he had been holding back, a phrase he failed to swallow down his throat and bury deep inside him where no one can reach.
Just like that day.
Their eyes meet, a mix of blazing ruby and shimmering gold, a blend of conflicting desires that neither of them understood, remaining at the tip of their tongues to rot.
As if a moth drawn to flame, Owen stays.

Summary
But even that isn’t enough to stop the uncomfortable twist in his chest, like a blade in his heart that turns as every second passes, a systematic torment that began the moment he bore witness to silver locks and that familiar tantalizing smile disappearing into a whirlpool of unprecedented time.
(If scars are stamps of memories that can't be forgotten, then Kasen will carve his own scars.)

Summary
Humans, he finds, are stubborn creatures. They’ll do anything to achieve their goals, fight for what they want, search high and lows to see their dreams become a reality. It’s difficult to put them down, to completely crush their spirits when they have something they crave, something they must have no matter the cost—always curious and hungry to a fault. But humans are running on limited time, their forever isn’t without an end. And so they struggle, transient beings that continue to tussle against the boundless universe.
Everything becomes more worth it when time is evanescent.
(Or, Zhongli and Childe spend a morning together.)

Summary
There’s a foreign and unacquainted air between them, strangely pleasant even with their lack of effort to peel under it. Xingqiu is enjoying his time—that’s only natural, there’s never a time he’d find unpleasant if he’s with the exorcist. Still, he can’t shake the feeling that they’re on the verge of crossing a line they’ve concealed for a long while. It’s thrilling, it’s terrifying—their friendship never felt so fragile, yet vigorous. Something is changing, gradually, as they continue on with the festival. Pressing closer to one another with each stand they visit, yearning touches shrouded by the excuse of simply feeding each other whatever meal they have in hand. A barrier is breaking, whether they’re ready to step onto the other side, neither of them seem to know.

Summary
From receiving a mountain of tributes, journeying over to a land and claiming it under Wales' name for the sake of collecting chocolates in peace, today's capacity of unexpected events should already be at its limit. But when the sun sets and night falls, there's still one more surprise in store.
