    Summary

    (weiss dreams of it, sometimes. winter taking her head in her hands and speaking in that low, serious voice and saying things that mostly blurred into white; the cuts and scrapes on her hands from sparring with her in the gardens smoothing over; the way all the shadows in the room turned blue. there you go, she said, and weiss can never quite remember what happened after that.)

    Summary

    She could have stayed here forever, fighting house fires and responding to traffic accidents. She sniffs and lets herself be buried in a bear hug, crushed between the familiar smell of aftershave and firehoses. She could have stayed here forever, but she has a plane ticket to California and the small life she’s built here already packed up, promises she made herself still left to keep.

    Summary

    “Wait, what? No. Let me go.” Agott looks to the adults, almost pleading.

    The two men are, of course, otherwise engaged in conversation and are completely ignorant of the plight of their pupil.

    Riche persists. “Someone has to be the knight.”

    Summary

    The redhead behind the counter has tawny skin and a desperate look in her eyes as she tries to juggle the flood of newcomers. Must be between class periods, Miorine thinks. When Miorine ordered, the redhead wasn’t there. She was attended to by a girl with dark, streaked blue hair, and an apologetic expression. Miorine had ordered one black coffee, and picked a pastry at random, just to silence her stomach. And that, she had said, pointing a finger towards the display case, not bothering to read the label. It turned out to be a pumpkin scone.

    Miorine still has pumpkin scone crumbs around her lips, something she is unaware of as she watches the redhead get overwhelmed. She’s vaguely pretty, in what some might call a girl-next-door way, which Miorine finds trite, so she strikes the thought off her mind.

    Summary

    Arkromes do not fall in love. They don’t fall for a former Unknowing who can barely draw a proper glyph that doesn’t involve a straight line.

    (Arkromes do not fall in love with a girl whose laugh sparks fireworks in Agott’s chest, whose smile rivals the stars shining in the sky.)

    There's a new girl at Qifrey's atelier. Agott isn't sure how she feels about that.

    Summary

    Agott doesn’t hate Coco. She doesn’t think she ever did. Whatever she felt back then wasn’t hate– it was bright and strong, sure, but not hate. So now, as Coco’s problem makes itself ever more serious– waiting for her, patient and terrible, set silently at the foot of her childhood home– Agott realizes something unfortunate. She seems to refuse to simply leave Coco to bear her problems alone.

    Agott knows magic like the back of her hand, after all. She knows magic, and she knows it well— and if she’s learned anything from the past year, it’s that two pens are always better than one.

    (And all the while this feeling, this not-dislike, coils through Agott’s heart like spring flowers, petals unfurling gently within her soul. Perhaps… there is still a bit more she has to realize.)

    Summary

    "A—what?" Nika wasn’t expecting Miorine to be rummaging through the workshop so late at night.

    "A platform."

    And yet here she was, rummaging through the workshop shelves in the middle of the night, undeterred by the grease that had smeared along her uniform blouse. Whatever it was she was looking for, it must have been important. The frown of impatience on her face said so.
    -
    OR: Miorine is frustrated at Suletta's antics, and asks Nika for some help. (Rated T for Chuchu swearing)

    Summary

    “so what colour did you want again?”

    hunter looks doubtfully at the bottles amity has set out on the carpet. “i don’t know. what colours are there?”

    amity makes a face. “well, they’re right there in front of you.”

    hunter sticks his tongue out right back. why he agreed to any of this in the first place, he has no idea. “would be helpful if i knew what literally any of them were called, but okay.”

    “pretty sure you know what blue is, hunter.”

     

    or, amity and hunter paint each other's nails and bicker like siblings over it. willow is just trying to watch tv peacefully.

    “good morning,” she whispers.

    weiss runs a hand down her face and peers at the light streaming in from underneath the curtains. “good afternoon, more like.” she attempts to reach for her scroll for all of thirty seconds and then just gives up and removes winter’s from her pocket instead. “yep. one forty.”

    “that’s not so bad.”

    weiss sniffs. “vacuo could be tumbling down around us and we wouldn’t even know.”

    “uh huh,” ruby says. “hey, want some breakfast?”

    Summary

    Their eyes meet, for the first time in the past fifteen minutes. Like water in a desert.

    She reaches for the butter, where Luz’s hand rests, but timing is tragically not on her side. Before their fingers can touch tenderly over the sticky plastic lid, Luz swivels on her heels and walks away. Amity watches her covert girlfriend as she jumps back into conversation with the others, like nothing happened, like she hadn’t just held Amity’s heart hostage in her throat.

    Amity turns back to the toaster, but not before she notices Camila looking her way.

     

    OR: Luz isn't immediately ready to come out to Camila, and that's fine. It might be a Human dilemma that Amity can't quite understand, but this is Luz, so Amity will do anything to help her out, even if it includes not acting like her girlfriend around Camila.

    Of course, Camila clocks her from a mile away.
