    Summary

    “But I am not flawless, Aglaea,”
    He pulled the blanket to his nose, leaving only blue eyes visible. Heavy and glassy with a haze of fever.
    “You are.”
    .
    .
    Calm and calculated, a perfect conduct that betrays no emotion. It was more than enough to handle most formidable things, from Nikador’s titankin to the scheming Council. However, even with fading humanity, Aglaea knew that it is not the face to wear facing a feverish Phainon with his walls down.

    Summary

    “I’m sorry, Aglaea,” his murmur is a scratchy and weak thing, yet he has no doubt Aglaea heard him. “Did Tribbie tell you where to find me?”

    A delicate hand settles in his white locks, seemingly uncaring for how greasy they must feel. “Though I may be blind, the tremors of your heart do not lie, Phainon.” She scratches at his scalp, eliciting a full-body shudder. “I could pick out the sound of your strings from thousands.” 

    or, Aglaea caring for Phainon in a way only a mother could

    Summary

    "You're not... Phainon, are you?" Mydei couldn't help but say. "You never... over steep the chamomile."

    Phainon's hands shook even more. "I'm just," Phainon licked his lips, tongue running nervously over the seam of his lips. "Tired."

    "Tired," Mydei repeated. He couldn't help but press Phainon, unnoticing of how Phainon seemed like a nervous wild animal, ready to bolt at any moment. "You never over steep the chamomile." He said once more.

    Phainon didn't look at him. "I said I'm just tired," he gritted, more forceful this time.

    Involuntary fear crept up Mydei's spine. It was more instinct than rationale, at this point. He knew Phainon would never hurt him on purpose. It was the Reaver.

    And yet the Reaver wore Phainon's face and hurt him anyway.

    Summary

    Phainon the Oryx, though now forgotten by the majority of Amphoreus citizens, used to be an integral part of everyday life; this is seen in the Oryx statues scattered all over Okhema as well as the tradition of sacrificing an Oryx at the start of the year to avoid misfortune. He is the Demigod of Sacrifice and Harvest, among other domains. He is believed to be the son of the Worldbearing titan Kephale (???, add source here) and

     

    Suddenly, Mydei's laptop restarts.

     

    Updating…0%

     

    He can do nothing but stare at his screen in shock. If he were a less repressed man, he'd start crying. He actually might.

     

    - or -

     

    Phainon is a forgotten god and Mydei is an incredibly tired college student.

    Summary

    "You're early, Mydei," Phainon says, a little breathless.

    A timer starts blaring from within the apartment. The acrid scent of burnt sugar snakes out into the corridor.

    "Nikador's sake, Phainon, open a window."

    Or, Mydei comes over for dinner, teaches Phainon a thing or two about how to make a perfect tart shell, and figures out a way to revive their restaurant.

    Summary

    “Are you enjoying your feast, Dux Gladiorum?”

    Hysilens turns to the voice behind her and raises her glass of honeybrew up to her lips upon seeing Cerydra, lest the fond smile breaking across her face get too out of control. “It is more than I could have hoped for.”

    A lul in dialogue allows for Hysilens to study Cerydra a little more. The chatter and liveliness of the feast continues around them, but the people might as well be underwater as Hysilens’ every sense hones in on Cerydra.

    It’s here, as close as they are, that Hysilens can feel that fire she yearns for the most; it burns hottest when she’s by her ruler’s side.

    or,

    Hysilens is Cerydra's, in every sense of the word

    Summary

    He eventually learned he was not a messiah, not a healer, and not a savant. Time had stripped such an illusion bare. He was a harbinger. He could replace his white coat with a hood and carry a scythe and he would feel no different. Yes, he “healed” soldiers, but for what purpose? To send them back to the jaws of death sooner or later. If fate was merciful, they would meet death on the battlefield quickly. Maybe even painlessly. If fate was unkind, they would make their way back to Jiaoqiu’s care, where he would heal them, and they would be sent back on the same, meaningless cycle. Whether soldier or healer, it was all a means to an end.

     

    Jiaoqiu finally breaks. Moze picks up the pieces.

    Summary

    You’ve grown here, laughed here, loved here. You’ve razed it to the ground. But it always comes back in the next cycle, another coded bit of data, just like you, just like every person here.

    “Are we even real, Mydeimos?”

    He seems furious, now. His hand reaches for yours, gripping it with force enough to bruise and slamming your palm into his chest. A heart beats there, but he’s dead, isn’t he? You are too, so why do your hearts still beat? “Do I feel real enough for you?” he asks. “After thirty-three million cycles, is there really anything to doubt?”

    In which you are Phainon, and he is Mydei, and the weight of deliverance is no longer on your shoulders.

    Summary

    “Finish the story,” Phainon prompts, and it comes out kind of quiet, kind of weird.

    “He fell in love with a warrior in Okhema,” Mydei tells him, sliding a hand under his pillow. “They were equals in just about everything, and that’s… significant to a Kremnoan. He died sacrificing himself to buy that warrior time to save the city.”

    “That sounds like something a hero would do to me.”

    “Maybe,” Mydei grumbles. “A real hero wouldn’t leave the one he loves to fight alone.”

    On a trip to see his sick sister, Phainon realizes a few things. Foremost of these: through it all, Mydei has never once left his side.

    Summary

    Long has the honor of Kremnos fallen. Upon the news that the Crown Prince lives, in yet another fit of cowardice, King Eurypon hires an assassin on the eve of his son’s 25th birthday to take care of him. He should have known, however, that the only person foolish enough to accept the job would have also been foolish enough to fall in love.

    It wouldn’t have been a problem—if only the Undying Prince hadn’t fallen in love too.

    "Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate you setting up this date, but I also really want a choco brownie blizzard right now."

    Mydei checks his watch and his brows furrow. "If we leave right now, we might be able to make it to dairy queen before they close."

    Phainon feels a grip on his arm, and the next thing he knows is he's running on the sidewalk with a man determined to get his choco brownie blizzard at 9 in the evening in a ten degree weather.

    They would stare at one another for a few more minutes before Phainon would, with great reluctance, get off of Mydei and extend a hand for him to grab.

    To his delight, the king takes it and holds onto it for a few seconds before letting go.

    He already misses having the warmth of Mydei’s hand.

    Something inside him, what’s left that’s untouched, broke as more and more of his old comrades followed suit. Not even his burning core could warm the cold seeping into his entire soul as his world comes crashing down on him.

    He saved the planet but lost his home for a second time.

    His vision tilts and Phainon swallows down the bile in his throat.

    Summary

    “Three sessions.” Khaslana says at least, with his empty doll eyes under the shadow of the trees, he looks more like a ghost than ever. “I give you three sessions. If you don’t get to paint something I like, I leave.”

    “Hm, you really think I can’t.”

    “I know you can’t.”

    How terribly arrogant. Mydei grins, wild and prideful, heart thumping with what might be either adrenaline or anger. “Three sessions.” He agrees.

    They say whoever attempts to make a muse out of Khaslana goes mad. Mydei thinks that’s fine. He wants less of a muse than he likes a challenge. Somewhere along the way, he falls in love.

    His muscles are made of steel, but steel requires proper tending. Water relaxes them, chasing away the proof of Phainon’s progress. Phainon’s hands relax them with their steady, knowing pathway, lips making them soft like moss.

    Phainon’s body, too, is made of steel, his soul soft like pillows waiting for Mydei to collapse onto them.

    The first time, Mydei told him that intimacy is nothing but learning the ways another body works—a good warrior learns and uses the knowledge, Deliverer.

    I don't mind you knowing, he replied.

    Phainon is for Mydei, even if Mydei doesn't know that he needs Phainon to be there for him.
