    Summary

    spoilers for hsr 3.3

    When it comes to predatory, soul-sucking gacha games, Cosmic Impact Rail Zero was probably the worst of the worst. Did it have incredible characters? Yes. An engaging storyline? Double yes. Did it make Mydei want to blow his entire paycheck on weapons and skins and more rolls? Of course it did.

    But it also killed off basically every character in the game, including the crown prince that shared Mydei's name– Mydeimos the Undying, Son of Gorgo. How the hell was that even possible?! He literally had undying in his title!?

    So when the developers ask for feedback, Mydei goes off on a heated tangent– and finds himself reincarnated as his namesake. You know– the doomed prince, destined for a life of hardship? Destined to die?

    Not if Mydei has anything to say about it.

    Summary

    How dare Phainon claim Mydei didn’t understand romance.

     

    A faint memory of Phainon guffawing at him from atop the roof of a shop appears in his mind; his sapphire eyes twinkling with mirth and stray beams of sunshine caught in them, the way his cheeks turned a soft pink while his silver hair gently swayed with the breeze, reflecting the golden of the sun-

     

    “What’s wrong, my romantically-illiterate prince? Can’t catch me?”

     

    No, Mydei had to prove this imbecile wrong. And he shall do so by courting him, and when Phainon would realise, at the end of it all, that he had actually pulled it off, Mydei would be the one laughing at his face instead.

    Or the five times Mydei tries to 'understand romance' by courting Phainon and fails, and the one time he succeeds.

    Summary

    Phainon - Extremely famous and well known professional gamer and streamer - Cannot cook.
    That's fine though - He is the biggest fan of a tiny unknown streamer and has been for years! That guy can cook!

    Mydeimos - The relatively small streamer that only plays life simulators and dress-up games - Can cook.
    Recently he had to move for his new job, he's not too fond of his new living arrangement however.

    Phainon will handle the news about Mydeimos moving to his area and working with one of his close friends very well!
    Probably.

    ”I thought—“ Mydeimos faltered. “I thought the songs were about somebody else. I though—“

    “What, Hephaestion?” Phainon snapped. “You think I wrote a whole album about watching the guy you’re dating?”

    Mydeimos blinked. What.

    “What are you talking about? I’m not—I’m not dating Hephaestion.

    Phainon’s mouth dropped open. He blinked, anger dissipating into incredulous disbelief. “You’re not?”

    ”No,” Mydeimos said, too loudly, too quickly. “Where did you even get that idea?”

     

    Or: Two solo albums and a world tour later, Mydeimos finds himself forced to sing love songs written by the love of his life, about somebody else.

    Summary

    Knights aren't supposed to love their liege.
    But Phainon has never been good at doing what he's supposed to.

    Sworn to serve Mydei, the cold and calculating Crown Prince of Castrum Kremnos, Phainon was trained to fight, guard, and obey. Falling for his liege was not in the curriculum— yet here he is, neck-deep in unspoken feelings and terrible decisions.

    His solution?
    Slip anonymous love notes between the pages of the books that Mydeimos reads at the library of Castrum Kremnos. Not the smartest plan, but it beats confessing and getting himself executed, he thinks.

    Mydei, on the other hand, is many things— disciplined, unreadable, sometimes terrifying— but he’s not immune to mystery. Or curiosity. Or the occasional flutter in his chest when he finds a folded note tucked beside a bookmarked passage.

    Summary

    In no universe should he have to witness Mydei’s hand linger on Phainon’s shoulder for a moment longer than what two friends consider proper, and then watch as Mydei flexes his hand right afterwards, clearly so affected by it. Like something straight out of March’s romance novels.

    Seriously, Phainon’s eyes had softened when he looked at Mydei. Multiple times. In public! And here Caelus thought eyes could only soften in Jing Yuan fanfiction.

    Dan Heng gives him a look. “Phainon and Mydei are good friends. They’re bound to bicker every once in a while.”

    Caelus sits up, wholly indignant. “Have you seen them,” he demands.

    In which Caelus meddles.

    Summary

    “Please don’t slam the books.” A stern voice cuts through the stillness.

    Phainon jumps in fright, clutching at his chest to will his heartbeat to slow as he turns to face the person who interrupted his brooding. As soon as he takes in what’s before him, he forgets how to think.

    A man stands across from him, arms folded neatly across his chest, watching him behind a pair of simple black frames that suggest he’s already written Phainon off as a lost cause. He’s sharp and poised, biceps bulging even beneath his loose-fitting jumper, and the worn edges of the neckline leave a sliver of his clavicle on display that Phainon can’t seem to look away from.

    Summary

    “Hey, couldn’t help but overhear,” Reki starts, feigning indifference. “You said you like someone? What's her name? What’s she like?”

    Langa stiffens for a second, then scratches the back of his neck. “Well, they’re really fun to be around. They have a lot of energy, but they’re still patient— and so kind, and they have a really good sense of humor. I love their smile.” Langa’s expression turns soft, wistful. “But I don’t think they’ll ever like me back.” 

    “Why’s that?” Reki asks, mouth full. 

    Langa smiles at him sadly. “They’re way too good for me.”

     

    Or, Reki and Langa's first crushes big enough that they want to do something about it (on each other of course), the way they do something about it (very different) and their first kiss (awkward as hell, but sweet. Just like them)

    Summary

    There’s a part of Suo, animalistic and wild, that wants to cage Sakura into their booth and do anything to hear him say his name like that again. The urge to do so prances around in his ribcage, making his blood feel hot. There’s a thrill of excitement alighting in his stomach, and he feels breathless.
    There’s part of his mind that’s screaming, telling him
    I want, I want, I want. It’s loud and pressing into his chest, cramping down beside his heart, fuses with it, and makes every heartbeat into I want you, I want you, I want you.


    or: Suo has a hopeless crush on Sakura, and deals with it the only way he knows how—biting his tongue, and riling Sakura up.

    Aglaea is on him as soon as his foot touches down on the Sea of Genesis’s watery marble. Let me, she begins, reaching, but Mydei curls his arm tighter around Phainon’s back and Aglaea’s hand falls away, golden thread snuffed out like a light. He holds her gaze, bites his tongue around the childish, spiteful question he longs to ask:

    Haven’t you done enough?

    after Phainon's retrieval from Nikador's Trial, Mydei stays.

    Summary

    Aglaea’s information must’ve gone bad, or maybe it was never good in the first place and she’d sent them out here on a corrupted teleslate’s whim to chase ghosts. The mission was already a wreck before a ruined corner of the city came raining down over their heads in a burst of marble and wood.

    Which means Mydei’s a little too preoccupied to care at the moment.

    Mydei is dying. Phainon, per usual, figures the rest out the hard way.

    Summary

    Mydei feels like jumping out of a window. His muscles feel rubbery, every fiber groaning and squeaking as it takes a century for him to straighten up. The box feels unusually heavy in his arms.

    He exhales loudly through his nose, then slowly forces himself to meet Phainon’s questioning eyes.

    Phainon’s eyes remind him of mountain lakes. A pristine blue, blindingly illuminated by the sun and surrounded by untainted snow.

    A sight that he has yearned for but dared not to approach.

    Fuck this. This has to be Zagreus’ doing.

    Mydei reunites with his childhood crush at university. Even worse? They're roommates.
