  1. Summary

    A series of (mostly) late night trysts between a very tired Pyro Archon and an identically exhausted Fatui Harbinger, set after the 5.1 Archon Quest and before the succeeding storylines. All stories can be read independently, but it's better to read all in succession for the most satisfying experience.

    Summary

    "Norm, what year is it?” Jake asks willing his voice not to shake and also for the words to come out in unaccented English.

    No Jake is not okay. He is nearly 16 years in his past, right when everything started to go wrong. Why is he here, how is he here? He wants to break down but he can't because this shit is real and maybe just maybe he can start to atone for all the sin he has brought to this world.

    Summary

    Lauma took a step closer, her presence quiet yet persistent, searching for any cracks in Nefer’s guarded façade. But Nefer remained as still as ever, her posture stiff. The air between them was thick with silence, heavy with the weight of that which was unspoken.

    Lauma broke the stillness, her voice melodious as she spoke. “Nefer… it’s been quite some time since I’ve been in this room, hasn’t it?”

    Nefer’s body tightened at the words, her eyes sharply diverting to Lauma for a brief moment. There was a flicker of reminiscence in her gaze, but it was masked as quickly as it was revealed.

    Alternatively, my interpretation of the conversation that unfolded between Lauma and Nefer when Jahoda went to fetch Dori.

    This fic has two chapters because I was indecisive and wrote two ways in which the scene could unfold. There is some repeated text, so I've demarcated off where the unique section starts by italicizing it.

    Summary

    Mavuika and Capitano are the smartest to ever grace the Mechanical Engineering department. Mavuika, consistent valedictorian since elementary, wears the crown. She wakes up at the crack of dawn to study before her classes begin, and sleeps past midnight to read her notes. So how could Capitano, who takes out a different girl every day and goes partying the night before exams, come so close to her?

    The answer might be simpler than Mavuika suspects.

    tl;dr — Mavuika finds out Capitano's secret to excelling academically is having really good sex.
