    Kaveh learns how respite does not always accompany a terrible price.

    “Then tell me you don’t want me,” Al-Haitham says. “Tell me to stop and we’ll never speak about this again.”

    Summary

    Three-and-one-third bodies have been found in an abandoned vehicle on the riverbank.

    It would be a challenging case even without the bad weather, weapons smuggling, white nationalists, industrial accidents, and the concept of pedigree dog breeds—but over it all hangs one troubling question: What is it that fascinates you about Kim Kitsuragi? Is it working class camaraderie? A sinister hex of mysterious origin? Did you imprint on him in Martinaise, like an amnesiac duckling? If you don’t figure out what’s going on soon, people are going to start to notice. Especially him.

    And sooner or later? Everything is related to the case.

    Summary

    “Ratio?” he asks, stepping a bit closer. “It’s me, Aventurine. Are you… do you want to go home?”

    At the mention of his name, Ratio stills, a light startle in his step as he turns to face Aventurine. He drops his hands, lacing them back together in front of him. He looks dazed, normal intensity lost from his eyes as they open glassy and vacant. They flex wide with recognition, but he doesn’t say anything.

    Ratio goes quiet, and Aventurine doesn't know what to do.

    Summary

    "Let me get this straight. You want Kaveh, a man known for being about as subtle as a stampede of sumpter beasts -"

    "Hey! Come on! I'm right here, you know!"

    "--to act as your spy? For the good of the nation?" Alhaitham snorted. "Kaveh can't even remember his keys, Cyno. And you're expecting him to engage in advanced statecraft?"

    "Ok, rude."

    When a certain ginger-haired Snezhnayan buys a slice of barren desert property in Sumeru, it's up to Kaveh to figure out whether this strange foreigner is actually the Eleventh Fatui Harbinger, and more importantly, what he's plotting out there in the middle of no man's land. Kaveh can do this. Probably.

    But it would sure be a lot easier if Alhaitham hadn't invited himself along as the world's most distracting fake husband.

    Summary

    When Lady Ningguang proposes a contest while rebuilding the Jade Chamber, half of Liyue rushes to take part. The winner must bring Sunset Vermillionite, Wonder Cores, and Adepti Sigils. Few people have heard of the first two items, and as for the sigils, it’s hard enough to locate an Adeptus, let alone convince it to give a boon. Who in the world could possibly amass such a huge number of sigils in a short amount of time? …Wait a second.
