    Summary

    “You’ll break me,” Mizi says. “I’ll break you. We break each other and kiss away the tears that form because the ache is all we know.”

     

    “But why?” Sua looks to her. The world around them creeps towards dawn and the flowers sway gently, beautiful for all eternity. “Why must we?”

     

    Mizi circles MALACHITE SUNBIRD with her finger and murmurs, “You’ll leave me, Sua. You always will. That’s just how we are.”

     

    The protest in her throat dies like the faint embers of used-up coal and Sua reels in her bed, head throbbing. Her phone blares and lights up when she smacks it. 37 HOURS LEFT.

     



    Or, Mizi and Sua only have 48 hours and 32 minutes left to live.

     


    (The ethos? Eating is hard, dreams are so cruel when they dangle what you don’t have in front of you via Tantalus’ grove, and never trust another goddamn faggot.)

    Summary

    —means that there is no true and unchanging self. One cannot look at themselves and say "this is where I begin and the world ends; this is all of me." Similarly, there is no enduring "self" from one moment to the next; all that we are defies classification and exists to change.

    Kujou Sara has had strange dreams her entire life—dreams of a life as a general of the Inazuma Shogunate, and the two women with which she fell in love. One day, she visits a museum exhibit on the history of the Shogunate, and when she meets a strange, familiar woman there, Sara realises that these may not just be dreams after all.

    With this realisation comes questions, and as Sara finds herself drawn into memories of a past life, immersed in feelings that may or may not be truly hers, she comes face to face with the question of who—and what—she really is.

    Summary

    When Yelan had first volunteered, Ningguang had slapped her, hard, across the face on the train, and then retreated to her room. The next time the two had spoken, Ningguang had written out a grueling training plan, detailed down to Yelan’s protein intake per meal.

    I’m sorry, Yelan wants to say, they told us it was an honor. I’m sorry, I just wanted to know where you had gone. I thought if I won I could understand you again and we could live like when we were children in the Akademia and we didn’t know that we were being raised to die.

    I wanted you back.

    For the first time in a long time, Barbara is eager to see what the future holds.

    She bends down and presses a kiss against the cold, gray gravestone. “Rest in peace, Jay,” she whispers.
