Summary
He had no qualms dirtying his fingers to peel open Sunsettias because Surtalogi was never taught how to do it properly, or bruising his knees when they roughhoused because Surtalogi was never taught how to do anything kindly. They were grown now, and time had lost Surtalogi some of his edge, some of his snark. He had grown more attentive to details that didn’t matter before, when they were still childish in their endeavors, like how Dainsleif’s lashes fanned against his cheeks when he blinked. How his skin was tanner than Surtalogi’s, his lips plumper.
He spoke of marriage with a subtone of longing that might have gone unnoticed by himself, but Surtalogi was too attuned to the nuances of Dain’s voice not to catch.
“Surt?” Dainsleif asked quietly, “What’s up?”
“I think we should take a nap,” he declared, unceremoniously.
It is a daunting thing, to grow up.

Summary
"She's...she's gone?" Furina says, soft and uncertain in a way she's still not sure she's allowed. There's the familiar panic, of course - the surety that she messed up, that the act was slipping; the urge to claw out her composure until it tore her face into a smile. The old fatigue, too, but that had always been the easiest to push down. "Mir– Focalors. The, um, Hydro Archon. She's gone?"
"...yes," Neuvillette says, with a complex expression. "She was condemned to death by the Oratrice, and bore it's judgment to fulfill the prophecy. Her role in Fontaine has at last concluded, Lady Furina." He looks at her again, gaze softening further. "...as has yours."
Furina talks to Neuvillette after her trial, after the flood, and after her role is finally over.
(An extra scene at the end of the 4.2 Archon Quest, before the Traveler meets Neuvillette at the entrance to the Fortress of Meropide)

Summary
Kaveh flings himself onto the divan, and spreads out along it as far as he can go. He plasters on a smug smile. “Poetry? For leisure? I’m surprised someone as unromantic as you can appreciate and enjoy the finer intricacies of any stanza, let alone a collection like this.”
No response. No Alhaitham giving him an annoyed look and slowly inching away.
Kaveh frowns. He leans forward, feeling more than a little desperate.
“I actually did eat the last samosa,” he tells Alhaitham, very seriously and very truthfully.
Alhaitham doesn’t even twitch.
Kaveh falls victim to a curse. The results are not as transparent as he first thinks.

“This looks quite exquisite,” Alhaitham commented, taking a vase of a unique abstract pattern from a shelf. Tighnari and Cyno eye him weirdly—like he has grown two heads of some sort. Alhaitham glances at them and raises an eyebrow, hand still holding the vase with utmost care. “What?”
Cyno clears his throat, while Tighnari blinks twice, “Alhaitham, I don’t mean any offense, but I would have expected you to choose something blander than a uniquely designed vase.”
“It’s almost as if you have acquired Kaveh’s taste.

‘lol are you crazy’, Kuroo replies to him when Yaku texts him the proposal.
“Are you a sadist? Do you just want to torture me?” Daishou asks him dramatically after he poses the question after a late-night practice between the two of them.
Yaku himself doesn’t deny either accusation, but first and foremost he considers himself a fucking genius.

“Ever since I met you, I have been trying to pin down this strange feeling that you give me. It and you both are utterly incomprehensible.” A stray bead of sweat traces Caelus’ jaw. “I want to try my hand at understanding it.”
The butterfly-blinks are back, beating at Caelus’ eyes in a fluttering flurry. “By—by kissing me?”

Gripping the hands of her throne when she hears the news, she leans forward.
"I want him." She announces.--
The Tsaritsa wants what the Tsaritsa wants.

“I just want to let you know,” Akabane says, braced against the door of the classroom he just barged in, “that you’re the apple of my eye, light of my life, if I had a uterus I would willingly have your babies, you are a beautiful gift from god-”
“What the fuck are you going on about,” Gakushuu says.
“If you help me do this one thing I will never annoy you again,” Akabane pleads, “takes no effort on your part at all, just five seconds of your time, maybe ten. I will never put wasabi into your lunches or hide your pens or put your phone number down for mailing lists about pet products-”
“You still haven’t actually told me what you needed my help for,” Gakushuu points out.
“Asano,” Akabane takes a deep breath, “the principal wants me to give a talk to Kunugigaoka Middle School about the value of studying and hard work because I was a 3-E student that got first place.”
Or: Gakushuu and Karma write a speech. Like everything else they do, it never goes exactly as planned.
