    Summary

    “Do you really want to go to school?”

    The question startles Collei out of her excitement. She looks up at him with wide eyes, surprised, a spoonful of Padisarah pudding halfway to her mouth.

    “You’re not just saying that because Tighnari suggested it, right?” he questions.

    Collei lowers the spoon and shakes her head vehemently. “No, of course not!” she exclaims. “I — I like my homeschooling with Tighnari, and he’s always very patient and kind when he teaches me, but it’s… well… I just…” She glances down towards the table, fidgeting with her hands. “I think it’d be nice. To go to school. I never really got to do that before — before everything.”

    ‘Everything’ is a word far too small to encompass all of Collei’s everything, Cyno thinks.

    Summary

    After decades of violent war, peace between the nations of Parnassus and Promare has finally been established by the promised union of Prince Galo Thymos and Regent Lio Fotia. The two have never met, but their wedding is suddenly the most important event in recent history and they know that millions of lives are riding on their ability to get along, or, at least, their ability to fake it for the cameras.

    Unfortunately, neither are the type to just sit back and let things happen.

    Summary

    Xingqiu had told Chongyun, all those years ago, most of the truth - that he’d gotten his Vision in the rainstorm that had pummelled Liyue Harbor while Chongyun had been recuperating from his disastrous Dragonspine expedition, that perhaps even the Archons had known not to separate Xingqiu and Chongyun in any way. It had been half a joke, but Chongyun had accepted it with a pleased smile.

    He doesn’t know what it says about him that he remembers, with aching clarity, that moment where he’d been so coldly angry about not being able to protect Chongyun that he’d attracted the attention of the Archons themselves. Every time he touches his Vision, he gets a flash of that frigid, relentless part of himself.

    And it feels ugly.

    .

    Xingqiu learns, over the years, what it means to have a Hydro Vision.

    Summary

    Sylvain's touch still lingers there, like he's afraid he might have woken Felix up. But when Felix still doesn't move at all, Sylvain lets out a soft and breathy noise that falls somewhere between a sigh and a laugh. There's a barely perceptible shift in weight in the mattress, like maybe Sylvain is leaning a hand against it, and ...

    That's when Felix feels it––the brief shiver of Sylvain's breath, followed by the gentle press of his lips on Felix’s forehead.
     
    or, Sylvain keeps showing Felix signs of affection, but only when he thinks Felix is asleep … and Felix, who is actually awake every time, starts to realize his true feelings for his best friend.

    Summary

    "What's gotten into you, babe?" Galo asks, tone easy, watching from the adjoined kitchen as Lio sets the tree on the end table by the couch. "Thought Christmas wasn't your thing."

    "It's not," Lio insists, poking the tiny bulbs on the tree's string of lights. "This city's poisoned me."

    Summary

    Galo’s life has slowly been shifting these last few months since the Earth’s rebirth.

    The center of Galo’s universe is no longer Kray Foresight and the burning desire to prove himself to his hero. No, now Galo’s life revolves around a brilliant and incredible man, an ex-Leader of the very organization Galo used to fight against, someone who is just as passionate about saving lives and helping others as Galo himself.

    And maybe that’s why Galo is having such a hard time processing what happened today. Because Lio is precious to Galo. And if Galo lost Lio, Galo would be lost, too.

    Summary

    The voice is like bells, sharp and clear yet somehow infinitely soft. Warmth caresses Yuuri’s face and a shudder wracks his frozen frame.

    “You’re okay now. You’re safe.”

    Summary

    Ten years after the World Blaze, the Parnassus successfully migrated to Omega Centauri, narrowly avoiding the destruction of Earth. The project’s young visionary, Kray Foresight, quickly took leadership, guiding the small colony into an uncertain but hopeful future, and the colonists honor the hundreds of Burnish who willingly gave their lives to bring them there. Twenty years into that future, Galo Thymos, the Governor’s young adopted son, finds himself adrift. Working as a terraformer and expected to follow in Kray’s footsteps, Galo pines for more adventure than the tiny, insulated colony can give him.

    When he’s enlisted to help Lucia gather some data on the sealed interior of the Parnassus, he jumps at the chance, eager for a little excitement, but what he finds down there throws his narrow world into complete chaos. Now on the run with a myth brought to life, Galo is forced to face the reality of what happened twenty years ago and the truth about his own father, but, as he and Lio grow closer, he realizes Lio may be the adventure he’s been seeking all along.

    Summary

    "Why are you avoiding me?"

    "I'm not avoiding you," Galo said unconvincingly. The harsh fluorescent lighting of the stairwell made the dark circles under his eyes more pronounced. He looked Lio up and down, then quickly away. "You should put on some pants."

    "Don't avoid my question about you avoiding me," Lio said, knowing full well that he was more of a threat to Galo while clad in just his boxers and an over-sized t-shirt than he would be while fully dressed. Galo tried to sidestep him but Lio stuck out his leg and braced his bare foot against the wall, blocking the way forward. "We can have this conversation here or in your apartment, but you're not getting away from me."

    Summary

    It starts small.

    An ever-so-slight lean into Galo’s side when they’re standing next to each other, looking at the chore assignments for the week in the Burning Rescue headquarters. The barest brush of cold fingertips against a bright orange jacket hem. Sitting a little closer than usual on the couch in the rec room. Resting on Galo’s back a little more than necessary when Galo gives him a ride on the back of his motorcycle after work.

    Lio is always freezing. Galo is always warm. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out the rest.

    the immediate aftermath.

    "'Where are you taking me?'
    'My place,' Galo says, easy. “I told Aina and the chief you were planning to stay in the ship but then they told me you almost died, and that’s true, and then your friends told me to make sure you got some actual sleep, so. You get my bed.'"
