Summary
Everything Serena would do or say, it was always for her. Never herself. Everything was for Yan, but she never felt comfortable with the spoiling she’d get on an assumingly daily basis at this rate.
Not that she didn’t appreciate it—no, her girlfriend could kick her out on the side of the road, and Yan would still hold sentimentality for every waking moment they’ve spent together, and every saccharine word that would fall from Serena’s lips when they were both hidden under slivers of moonlight from the curtains.
It was more so rooted from what she knew in her heart, that relationships are mutual. Platonic, familial, romantic — what’s the point of it all if one party leeches off the other? Yes, she knew this all too well.
So, the only logical solution to mend their not-even-falling-apart-yet relationship was to pry into Serena’s own hobbies.
Case in point: hunting.

Summary
Another typical day of an endless cycle of death. An endless cycle of running, panting, and blood seeping underneath the fabric of your clothes until it feels almost uncomfortable moving with liquid ichor sticking to your skin.
What she doesn't realize is that today is, in fact—not the typical day she thought it might be.
Or, well, she'd say there wasn't too much special about this day anyway, but she fears her girlfriend may just slam a frying pan over her head if she voiced that out loud.
alternatively: It's Serena's birthday today. Shame, the Mist didn't remember before throwing her into another exhausting trial. Yan did, however.

Summary
And although the gathering wasn’t one of a masquerade party, it would make no difference had she crafted and donned her own mask, sequined in pretty pink jewels sparkling enough to blind a man’s eyes.
alternatively: Serena isn’t so sure about herself anymore. Dakota, on the other hand, is the most assured woman she’s ever met in her measly eighteen years of living.

Summary
Time and time again, the Stareater would find himself lost. In a world like this, an endless black void, it was very easy to find yourself at multiple dead ends. To reach points where barely anything existed, and all you'd have to do is walk, and walk, and walk, in the false hope that finally – you'd find at least something.
Wandering throughout these inky pits of darkness was pointless to him. And yet, he had to. Because if he had to spend another second without Dante beside him, he himself would start to become pointless.
So Andrew always searched for him. And Dante would always let himself be found, with his bright, shining lantern letting the Stareater know that no matter how dark their world would become – he was there. He was always there. Just like the flames of his lantern, he was unwavering. He would never disappear.
Not until every star in the night sky withered away into nothingness.

Summary
Hua Cheng, BFA in Fine Arts, has a free period after Digital Illustration, and his best friend pesters him into crashing a lecture — “You can nap in the back or whatever.”
Hua Cheng agrees, half-listening… until he sees Xie Lian walk in. Long hair tied in a loose low bun, white button-down and waistcoat, voice calm like silk over stone. He’s utterly beautiful. The kind of beautiful that makes Hua Cheng sit up straighter, blink once, and forget how to breathe.
Xie Lian speaks with passion about western portraiture and idealisation. Hua Cheng stays behind afterward, sketchbook open. He doesn’t say anything — just stares. Xie Lian notices. Smiles faintly. “Are you… enrolled in this course?”
“No.”
“I see.”
The next semester, Xie Lian finds his name on the roster.

Summary
“Gege? What’s going on?”
Xie Lian has gone bright red, his eyes flickering back and forth between He Xuan, who he’s still laying on, and Hua Cheng, who might have gone into actual shock.
“San Lang! We’re, we...uh, this is—”
He Xuan takes a deep breath, sends a prayer to the dead hermit crab he had when he was twelve, and says, “Xie Lian and I are dating.”
He Xuan gets dragged into a love triangle he never wanted to be part of.

Summary
Mu Qing rolls his eyes and says coolly, “I doubt Xie Lian is even interested in a blind date.”
Four pairs of eyes turn to look at said person. Xie Lian presses his lips tightly together and averts his gaze, forcing down the urge to hide his face in his arms. It seems to get the point across well enough.
Pei Ming whistles, clicking his tongue. “Exactly.”
Xie Lian goes on a blind date.

“San Lang, if you win this match,” Xie Lian said, looking straight into Hua Cheng’s eye. “I will tell you something. Make sure you win, okay?”
How could Hua Cheng not lead his basketball team to victory after Xie Lian’s words?

Summary
“I really do not understand you,” says He Xuan. “The first script reading for the drama is tomorrow, and you haven’t even asked me who else has confirmed their role in the cast.”
“Because I don’t care about any of them,” says Hua Cheng.
“But you accepted the offer the second you heard that Xie Lian took the role of Xia Weiyuan.”
“I care about one of them,” Hua Cheng quickly amends.
Six years after their breakup, Hua Cheng is cast in Xie Lian’s new drama.
