Summary
She tips the lid open and is greeted by a ballerina, slowly turning to the sound of silvery notes and a familiar song. Next to her, Dainsleif shoves his hands into his pockets. “Thought you might like it,” he says, staring fixedly at her left ear. “It’s—”
“—Tchaikovsky’s Pas de Deux, from The Nutcracker,” she finishes for him, unable to keep the smile from her face.
Dainsleif gives Lumine a music box.

Summary
“I’m your older brother,” he insists. “It’s my job to keep you safe.”
“We keep each other safe,” she says, still halfway across the room. A cupboard door opens and closes. The whisper of a jar lid twisting open. “We always have. This won’t be any different.”
In the aftermath of the trial that exposed them as Fatui, Lyney has a crisis and Lynette makes tea.

Summary
“Falling in love with him is a bad idea,” Kaeya says.
“I’m not in love with him,” Rosaria says. She realizes too late that this too is a confession. She ought to have asked who he meant; she’s shown her hand too early.
He shakes his head at her. “I wouldn’t get too close, if I were you. He burns everything he touches.”
Rosaria is not in love with Diluc. That doesn’t stop Kaeya from warning her off.

Summary
She wonders what he would do if she leaned in and pressed her lips to his. Would he laugh it off? Would he inhale lightly like he does when something takes him by surprise? Would he freeze up, or push her away?
(Sometimes, when she’s feeling particularly brave, she lets herself hope that he would kiss her back.)
Kaeya and Jean in every universe.

Summary
Lisa wonders, not for the first time, what happened to the quiet, wide-eyed child who’d looked to her for comfort during storms as if the lightning itself heeded her words. And then she puts those thoughts to one side, because she is leaving for the Akademiya tomorrow, and she cannot afford to second-guess.
Lisa has never known her father, you see, and her mother passed away a year ago. There is nothing more keeping her in Mondstadt.
Well. Nothing except Jean.
The day before Lisa leaves for Sumeru, Jean visits to say goodbye.
