Summary
...and perhaps because of this pure impression that he could risk it to let his guard down for once and eliminate the distance he usually created, to simply start befriend Tighnari.
To have it grow into something beyond friendship though is something out of their control, at that they respond in kind.

Summary
i. like the encircling eventide
Their hands join again, and Tighnari swears that it’s always been like this. A lingering touch; Cyno’s warm skin against his.
ii. the concealed salt
“Alright. I just wanted to take you out to dinner.”
iii. letters in the sands half buried
The realization was matter-of-factly: he left the Avidya forest in search of Cyno.
iv. the hidden sweetness
Tighnari and Cyno are day and night themselves: two sides of the same coin. They cannot live without each other and it so happens they always ensured their ways of lives crashed.Alternatively, four depictions of the relationship between Cyno and Tighnari, and how they came to be.

Summary
"Tighnari. Knock knock."
Tighnari sighs. He doesn't look up, but his hands fall still in Cyno's hair. "Who's there?" he says faintly, and his voice is so fond that it knocks the air from Cyno's lungs.
Cyno falters. He breathes in and out and in again, and he feels like his ribcage might crack as he says, "Honeydew."
"Honeydew who?"
Honey, do you...

Summary
Tighnari is halfway through laughing out a witty response when Cyno stoops down, almost as if impulsively, and presses a kiss to the top of his head.
Tighnari freezes. Cyno must feel it, because he stops moving immediately. "Ah—Cyno—" Tighnari splutters, and Cyno lets out some kind of strangled hum. "What was that for?"
Cyno takes a slow breath and lets it hiss out through his teeth. "Um," he says awkwardly. "Good morning kiss?"
(Five times Cyno kisses Tighnari, and one time Tighnari returns the favor.)
