    Summary

    Ena attending Kamiyama during the day? For a week? Mizuki’s heart, so woefully unprepared, feels so full in their chest now. Their pulse ecstatic, the idea of getting to see Ena at school instills excitement, they’re nearly filled to the brim with an irregular pulse coursing through.

    And suddenly Mizuki falters—here comes the pattern again. Elation and excitement is quickly replaced with a sense of overwhelming dread at the entire prospect of it all. Rumors spread quickly here, they're more than familiar, who’s to say none of it will reach Ena’s ears?

    They’ll stay away from her. For the entirety of the week. They won’t be caught dead with Ena for these next several days.

    Summary

    "The script sat on Nene's lap like a lead weight.
    'A kiss scene?' she'd said when Rui first proposed it, her voice climbing half an octave higher than she'd intended. 'Really?'
    'It's essential to the narrative!' Rui had insisted. 'The princess must awaken the sleeping knight with true love's kiss.'
    Nene had stopped listening after 'true love's kiss.'"

    Nene has a crush on Emu. The play has a kiss scene. Both girls are convinced the other is just acting, but neither of them are very good at pretending their hearts aren't breaking.
    Rui notices everything and decides it's time to meddle.

    Summary

    Artemis leaps to her feet, vaults over the couch and tries to punch him, red hot fury pouring through her veins. How dare he be like that, how dare he say something like that, how dare—
    Robin grabs her arms, holding her back. “Hey, c’mon now, he didn’t mean anything by it!”
    “What did I say?” Wally demands.
    “I’m trans, you ass,” Artemis snaps.

    Summary

    Set after M'gann returns to the surface in 'The Fix', Kaldur and Artemis have a conversation. Or Artemis attempts to ask Kaldur if he's all alright and Kaldur concocts ways to evade the question, in the process convincing himself that answering the question would endanger the mission and that everything is somehow his fault.

    "Kaldur could feel her eyes slowly absorbing every line and joint in his body. Artemis was not an easy person to be around lately. Her presence was taunting him. The Manta Flyer had been easy to infiltrate precisely because no one on board knew him. But Artemis did, and if the last few weeks had been anything to go off of she knew him better than he had initially assumed. The thought was, comforting in that it meant he was not as isolated in reality as in memory. But being the son of Black Manta was a harder performance with an audience..."
