    Summary

    Phainon sighs and wearily rubs a hand over his forehead.

    “I’ve been having dreams,” he mumbles. “Vivid ones. I always wake up in a panic, thinking I’m trapped in those endless cycles all over again. They won’t stop no matter what I do.”

    Phainon has nightmares after the end of the Eternal Recurrences and the defeat of Irontomb. Tired of watching from afar, Anaxa finds a way to comfort him.

    Summary

    “You ask me to perform for the gods… What do you think my answer will be?”

    Silence stretches between them, heavy and suffocating as the flowers in Anaxa's lungs.

    Anaxa is dying of flower-blight, Mnestia’s curse for unspoken love. The cure is painfully simple.

    Unfortunately, he would rather schedule surgery than say it out loud.

    Summary

    “What do you think kid?”

    The Ashen Demon’s gaze goes from the Blade Breaker to Shez; the Blue Lions, before finally, Dimitri. His face does not move, giving nothing of his thoughts; still water beneath moonlight hid too much beneath its surface.

    “I suppose we could use a fresh start.”

    Despite the agreement in those words, Dimitri has a sense - some instinct - that the Demon dislikes their reassignment.

    “Dangerous,” father whispers; who better to warn Dimitri about betrayal.

    But he has nothing to go off but silly instinct and the words of a waking nightmare, so he welcomes the two for the skilled warriors they are.

    A king leads with logic after all, not petty emotion.

    Summary

    "Welcome to a new user experience! You have triggered this interface with the keywords, ‘Stupid game! Stupid devs! I want my f*****g money back!’ You are now bound to the character Tartaglia, the Eleventh Harbinger of the Fatui, codename: Childe! We hope you have an enjoyable user experience and we welcome you once again to Genshin Impact 2.0!”

    Those are some of the first words Ajax, starving college student extraordinaire, has the misfortune of hearing upon waking up in a brave new world from what he's fairly sure is a very fatal accident involving water and a shit ton of electricity.

    Okay, so he's not dead. That's good. But what's this about him being stuck playing the character Tartaglia? Tartaglia, as in the no-good, one-dimensional, cartoonish villain who met his untimely, gruesome death in the first act of the original game?

    Forget this. Like hell Ajax is going to share that fate.

    And so begins one man's journey to save himself from his awful destiny.

    Summary

    "I can easily play-act as your servant for an occasion or two."
    "... what?"

    Two years after the Reaper case, Lord Barok van Zieks makes Ryunosuke a unique offer: to serve as his assistant and help him practice his confidence via leading others. Half-fascinated and half-incredulous, Ryunosuke accepts. But he immediately finds he's received more than he bargained for, because leading means taking responsibility, both for those who follow him and for his own feelings.

    And despite trying to keep things professional with his brilliant rival-turned-assistant, neither he nor van Zieks seem able to hide their feelings as they begin to work side-by-side...
