Summary
The woman who finished her sentence today is not the same person that was put on trial. Sleep comes easier these days, she thinks.
But her sister has changed, too. Lana watched it happen. Every time Ema had come to visit, she’d taken note of how her hair was a bit longer, face a tad more angular. Her baby sister had grown nearly three inches taller than her over the years.
In some ways, they are strangers now.
--
When Lana Skye is released from prison, the she takes on the task of piecing her family back together after so long apart.
She only wishes that the woman her sister had become wasn't one she recognized so well.

Summary
The titles we use for one another always seem to change with time.
Maya Fey and Miles Edgeworth over the years.
--
A summary of the case sits by his right hand, more a formality than anything else; he’s memorized its contents. A von Karma never presents anything less than a perfect case. Miles is not a von Karma, but he knows reading the autopsy report until his eyes burn can at least make him a passing imitation.
And yet, despite all the evidence, despite his dedication and his meticulous preparation, his stomach churns.
At the stand, Fey’s eyes are red. He doesn’t know if they’re bloodshot from lack of sleep or time spent fighting off tears, but experience tells him it's likely both. Miles shivers.
Maya Fey is only a child. She wouldn’t—couldn’t—have done this to anyone, much less her own sister.

Summary
Before, the two of them had been on fire, burning through the path before them until it threatened to consume them both. They had been gasoline powered days, racing against the clock to secure a verdict, or save a spirit medium, or take hold of their own pasts. It’d been terrifying, but it had also come easily — no time to stop and think, to consider their actions. No time for the awkward silences to choke them out.
Now it’s as if it started raining and never stopped. The familiar blaze is gone, and Phoenix is dragging his feet through the water, trying his best not to be pulled under.
--
Phoenix and Miles navigate the difficulties of reaching out once the tables are turned. Disbarment presents challenges for them both. -

Summary
Andrew is looking to live his life in peaceful nothingness, but his new neighbor's cat won't stop sneaking onto his balcony. As much as he tries to not make it into something, Andrew finds himself drawn to the mysterious and tempting man next door.
Neil is just trying to find a reason to not leave Palmetto after everyone else has moved on. But he never thought he would want to run toward something in favor of running away.
(In a slightly different world, two people find themselves meeting in a softer setting and in just as much need of each other. A story about dealing with pasts, sharing secrets and a cat who is an asshole yet manages to charm everyone around it.)

Summary
Exchanging gifts was one thing. Naming this unknowable thing between them... That was something else entirely.
The war was over, yet it hadn't gone unnoticed by Ferdinand that Hubert was disappearing for weeks on end, reluctant to tell him where he was going and why.
That is until Ferdinand and Hubert are abducted, locked away in a mysterious stronghold, and Hubert is forced to tell Ferdinand everything about their cruel captors. The deplorable history of Those Who Slither In the Dark.
Imprisoned together and facing their imminent deaths, what walls remain between them crumble, and for the first time in their lives Hubert and Ferdinand find themselves fighting for more than just the Empire.
"You cannot possibly grasp the importance of what I am doing. You would understand, fully, if you were in possession of all of the facts.”
Ferdinand sighed and sat down on the chair opposite him. “And the fact that I am not, whose fault is that?”
