    Summary

    “Do you love living?”

    She’s silent a moment too long. He fears he’s pressed too hard, struck at something too deep for their fledgling relationship, that any moment now, everything they’ve built will burn away until Orpheus is left with fading embers and Eurydice walks away with the soot.

    Eurydice fidgets with the end of one of her braids, mussed by sleep but still impressively intact. “I love walking in the sun. And the flowers you make bloom. And…” she trails off. “I love how it’s been, these past few days.” His heart twists, more fondness filling his chest than he knows what to do with. 

    “I’ll turn those past few days into forever,” he promises.

    Or: the scenic route through Act 1, as told by Orpheus.

    Summary

    “You kissed me” Jesper said, slightly breathless and more than a little irked “why didn’t you say anything?”

    Kuwei just smiled.

    Or
    Jesper and Kuwei talk about home, about fathers and what it’s like to grow up in a world that hates you.

    Summary

    Jesper Fahey wore bright orange suits, hung his grief on his wrist and called it fashion. But Kuwei’s own hands were stained the same vibrant orange, the same shade of an angry sunset, the same shade of the flames he summoned, an Inferni already doomed to hellfire.

    They stood in Black Veil, a tomb in a graveyard where Kuwei had never had the chance to bury his father, in a country that he’d never be able to call home, in a language he’d lied about learning and would learn to love and hate in equal measure.

    Blessing, the Zemeni called their Grisha, and yet Kuwei saw how Jesper spoke like he wasn’t one of them, how Jesper might already know the Shu words for them: witch, blight, woe. They had grown up being taught to hide, after all – no one in Shu Han knew Kuwei was an Inferni. They had grown up being taught to lie.

    There were orange stains on Kuwei’s hands, and they were worse than any red: he didn’t call them grief. He didn’t call them guilt.

    He called them inheritance.

    Or, the one in defense of Kuwei Yul-Bo.
