    Summary

    “What conclusion have you come up with?”

    “Human custom would point to love,” Flins notes. Varka will laugh it off easily enough. Flins will suffer a moment of embarrassment, and it won’t matter at the end of the night. But his teeth ache and something stirs in his stomach, pulling at him, whispering something that sounds unfairly like mine.

    A low, soft hum. “And what of the fae?” Varka asks.
    |
    Flins doesn't want to love like a monster. Varka just wants him, however he is.

    Summary

    “What’s on your mind this time?” he asks.

    That Varka will go with the rising of the sun, that Flins is not canny enough to keep him. “The way your voice sounds right now.”

    Varka rumbles with laughter. “My voice is it?” he asks, turning his head to press his lips to Flins’s ear. “And what, exactly, do you like about my voice?”

    In the small hours before dawn, Varka attempts to trap Flins with a riddle he can't solve.

    Summary

    Wriothesley’s scent consumes Neuvillette, steals his thoughts and tosses them to the wind; smoke, metal and something darker. Oh, but this is desire. Something unbidden and finally reaching the surface.

    - Traveling to Mondstadt, Neuvillette and Wriothesley find themselves in Dragonspine over night, and keep each other warm.

    Summary

    Neuvillette pulls the popsicle out of his mouth, his brows raised. “Your Grace.”

    “Monsieur.” Wriothesley stares at the popsicle and then at Neuvillette. “Hot?” he asks, amused.

    “Miserably,” Neuvillette replies dryly, and then he slides that popsicle back between his lips, and Wriothesley discovers that the weather isn’t the only source of torment.

    A heat wave hits Fontaine, and Wriothesley uses his Cryo Vision to make it more tolerable for Neuvillette.

    Summary

    “Is there a reason you never want to spend your ruts with me?” Neuvillette asks, so direct that he catches Wriothesley utterly off guard. “Is there some fault with me?” Neuvillette asks softly.

    Wriothesley’s head snaps back up. “No,” he says. “No, Neuvillette, not at all. It’s… a fault with me.” He rubs his jaw, forcing himself to meet Neuvillette’s eyes even though he wants, very badly, to look anywhere else. “I’m not… When I’m in rut, it’s…” He drives both hands into his hair, holding it back from his face and closing his eyes. “I’m not good,” he finally says, dropping his hands and hanging his head.

    Wriothesley has always struggled through his ruts alone, terrified he will hurt a partner, but Neuvillette refuses to let him suffer alone.

    Summary

    An annoying little voice in her head, suspiciously reminiscent of a familiar white haired man, whispered, Mydei's obviously showing symptoms of pregnancy. He's done it, Phainon's defied biology, he's put a baby in him.

    Hyacine rushed to say, “But you’ve been snacking a lot more, haven’t you? It can’t just be a regular disease, seeing as the nausea hasn't inhibited your appetite, but made it bigger.”

    “So you agree then,” Mydei said, and a radiant grin erupted on his face as though Hyacine had just shared brilliant news. “It is something within my body.”

    A few months after Hyacine thinks she is finally free from third-wheeling Phainon and Mydei, Mydei falls pregnant.

    Summary

    Phainon would never be this open with his troubles if he were in his right mind. Then again, it was obvious that Phainon had been burdened, even more so than normal since Mydei’s departure. The fact that he was drunk in the first place was evidence of that. Maybe this was the first step he needed to show that he could allow others to support him for a change. Even if it was the result of drunken ramblings.

    “The worst part?” Castorice prompted gently, looking at him with soft eyes.

    All at once, Phainon’s voice became oddly clear, “The worst part is I have no eye candy anymore.”

    What?

    What?

    “What?”

    “Miss Castorice, he’s so so attractive. The first time I met him I blacked out for a second. I thought—I thought a Titan had blessed me,” he looked at her imploringly, “He doesn’t wear a shirt. None. Never. Do you even get how lucky we were? I could write songs about his back. I will! Oh by the Titans, his back…”

    Castorice would officially never forgive Aglaea for making her do this. Never.

    In which, Phainon drowns his sorrows following Mydei's departure, and it's up to Castorice to help.

    Summary

    Ratio didn’t respond, instead brushing the hair from Aventurine’s eyes so tenderly that it hurt. Aventurine should have known Ratio wouldn’t be so easily distracted. Ratio cupped Aventurine’s face, looking him in the eye like a lover. Like an equal.

    Aventurine had to blink back tears.

    “Aventurine,” Ratio said, soft, sincere. But then, Ratio was always sincere with him when it counted, “Dearest.”

    That nickname. It was stupid to get so emotional over it. And yet.

    Aventurine took a shuddering breath, “Yes?”

    His heart was pounding almost painfully. He cared about Ratio way too much.

    Ratio held him like he was everything and said, “You need more friends.”

    In which, at Ratio's insistence, Aventurine tries to make some friends.

    Summary

    It truly was impressive to see just how hopeless that man was for to Mydei. All anyone had to do was bring up the prince’s name, and Phainon’s ears would perk up like he had just heard a crucial detail to attack in a debate.

    In fact, Hyacine mused, you probably didn’t even have to bring up Mydei's name. Phainon would inevitably derail any conversation into an ode to his muse’s greatness.

    Hyacine as she observes (against her will) the strange relationship between Phainon and Mydei over the years.

    Summary

    In the span of four weeks, the recipient has reordered the same garment five times. The delivery person does not want to speculate what has happened to the previous cardigans: a particularly destructive pet, wine stains, gifts to family members?

    What does one man need so many identical sweaters for, anyway?

    Aventurine keeps stealing Ratio's cardigans to nest with. Eventually, the good doctor catches on and stops by with a heat care package. Sometimes, it's just that simple.

    Summary

    Suddenly, the circling cephalopods form a gap in their formation. Crewmates back away in fear, scurrying to hide behind pillars or fleeing to their quarters to hide from this fearful creature. The sky darkens and Aventurine walks along the plank to get a closer look of his client. There, a dark violet form emerges.

    “Damned gambler,” A deep voice rumbles from below. The surrounding creatures look tiny in comparison to their leader, who glares at Aventurine with piercing red eyes.

    “Ratio,” Aventurine smiles back at him. “How pleasant it is to see you again. Have you enjoyed your time without me?” He closely eyes Ratio’s form. The fearsome creature bears a large form, nearly twice as wide as Aventurine’s frame. Truly, a terrifying beast that sends a shiver down the captain’s spine.

    //

    Where revered captain of The Flying Dutchman, Aventurine, sails to meet his favourite client and finds himself wrapped up in more than he bargained for.

    “Don’t get bold now, Hound. You have a job, or did you forget?” Sunday scowls, and suddenly is overcome with the urge to take a step back, because Gallagher is leaning in and he’s close, and Sunday can smell the lingering scent of alcohol on his breath, and this is dangerous territory he doesn’t want to cross into.

    Or, the confrontation between Gallagher and Sunday goes a bit differently.

    Summary

    Veritas hadn't even tried to stop Aventurine from pulling him in by the chain at his chest and kissing him hard and biting. That had been his first lapse in judgment. The second came soon after, then the third, fourth, fifth.

    Sex creates idiots. Veritas knows this well. He wishes he knew how to stop himself. He doesn't want to stop at all. Aventurine is far too good at pushing his buttons. Making him stupid. Making him care. They meet again in less than a week.
    |
    Aventurine reacts strangely to gentleness. Veritas cares entirely too much.

    Summary

    “Without seeing you, how do I know what kind of expressions you’re making, or your body language? How do I know that you’re even still—”

    A touch to his ungloved hand. He nearly flinches as Moze takes it. “You keep your eyes closed most of the time regardless,” Moze says. “You’re used to not being able to see the people you speak to.”

    “Yes, well…” Moze’s hand isn’t warm but it isn’t cold either. Jiaoqiu can count the number of times they’ve touched for non medical reasons on his fingers. A strange thought. He’s never considered Moze to be tangible before. “...I like to have the option.”
    |
    Jiaoqiu can't see, so Moze holds his hand. It doesn't mean anything, and it definitely isn't a problem.

    Summary

    “This is wrong,” Jayce rasped, his voice strained with torment, so unlike the Jayce that had left mere hours ago to dance and drink and make merry and maybe even make love to the beautiful Mel Medarda. “This is too far back, I shouldn’t be here—”

    This Jayce was like a wild animal, bearded and shaggy, furious and heartbroken.

    The huge weapon thudded to the floor once again, and Viktor finally dared to speak.

    “Jayce, is that… you?”

    Stewing in his loneliness, research assistant Viktor witnesses an Anomaly take place in the laboratory he shares with Jayce Talis, potentially altering life as they know it (or might never come to know).
