Summary
After getting dumped by Akira, Goro is left with a lot of time to himself. A certain counselor has suggested he get a hobby.
So he reverts to old habits, exploring the city's restaurants like a foodie even though he doesn't care about the food. He finds a nice cafe, his spot. He comes every week on his bicycle. There's a cute barista.
Goro's new oasis is immediately invaded by a certain familiar artist furiously sketching while he ignores Goro's presence as much as Goro ignores his.

Summary
A friendly game of compliments between Ren and Goro soon escalates into a friendly game of flirting, which then escalates into a maybe too friendly game of gay chicken. That's all fine and good, except Ren's playing with a major disadvantage: he's in love with his opponent.
But it's fine. Everything's fine. Ren's not going to let something like wanting to die from his repressed feelings get in the way of their competition. After all, Goro would never forgive him if he didn't give their game everything he's got.

Summary
Several thousand years ago, King Yaldaboath purged the Unseelie from the Summer Kingdom and sealed the Barrier, permanently separating the two realms and sparing the Seelie from the Darkening, a wasting disease spread by the Unseelie. The Seelie lived in peace under the King's rule until, mysteriously, the Darkening began to return, ravaging outlying towns and stirring panic everywhere.
Tucked away in the Summer Court, Goro has more immediate concerns: pleasing his cold and duplicitous father, maintaining his toothless and friendly facade, and hiding his own treasonous aspirations. The arrival of an enigmatic new page certainly doesn't help things. Akira is magnetic and unusually interested in him and Goro finds himself increasingly distracted. When the Darkening comes to their front door, Goro and Akira set out to discover the cause of the outbreak, but the answers they find throw everything about the world as they know it into question.

Summary
Frankly, Vicious wouldn’t normally care what Aegis does. Aegis is the kind of person that Vicious loves to watch break under the stress of their own shitty ideals, but lately -- but lately --
Ugh, Vicious is so tired of this “friendship” bullshit. He’s tired of caring, he’s tired of dealing with it, he’s tired of the knowledge that every inch he gives these people is going to rebound on him a thousand times when they get themselves killed and he’s the only one left standing.
