    Summary

    Cranes settle on the cliffs above them, white splotches against the sky's dark canvas, and the tree at Windrise towers in front of them. The knotted trunk stands thick and tall despite the years, mossy and strong no matter how many storms it has weathered. The canopy spreads so wide that, as they approach, it blots out the mountains behind it. In that ancient tree, several generations of beasts have lived and died, and at its roots, thousands of humans have gone to pray, weep, and love. 

    "That's the Symbol of Mondstadt's Hero," Durin says where he stands at Albedo's side, staring up at the tree with wide eyes. Hat Guy says nothing, but his silence speaks for itself. "I read about it in a book, and people say that Vennessa ascended to Celestia where it stands."

    (Or: In the process of visiting a friend from afar, two brothers learn a little more about each other, the people of Mondstadt, and how to handle rumors.)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Amazing Wanderer characterization, as well as Albedo, and of course it features heavily my greatest little guy, Durin, and many mentions of crystalflies and fireflies. Good read!

    Summary

    “You don’t dream,” Albedo says.
    “No,” Kunikuzushi replies. “But I remember.”
    -
    Kunikuzushi was meant to die a long time ago. 
Instead, they rebuilt him: mind in metal, purpose redefined. Now he’s a tool. A technician. A relic of rebellion punished into obedience.

    Albedo is a reprintable clone: beautiful, brilliant, and completely replaceable. They’re sent on expeditions together— one to die, the other to remember.

    They weren’t built to love. But they do.

    A story about two not-quite-people learning to live anyway. 
About rebellion. About autonomy, and agency. About choosing love when you were built to obey.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    A wonderfully noted down canon-divergent series following Steve and Bucky, separated by years, in a non-chronological order. Focuses on 13 letters that Bucky wrote that were leaked. Discovered through a comment section on Youtube about highly-specific fics due to its lovely annotations, and reminds me greatly of some of my favorite other fics that also feature annotations. Joy!
