    Summary

    "Saki, you're going to get your makeup on the sheets," Ichika says.

    "Mmmmfg," Saki replies. Shiho digs a finger into her side and Saki twists away with a whine, but remains firmly faceplanted on the bed.

    She mumbles something that would be unintelligible to anything else but them. But it's them, so Ichika recognises the exact tone and cadence of the words Shiho-chan's so mean.

    “You little—”

    Summary

    A few years ago, if you’d have told Vyncent he’d panic-booked an immediate flight to New Haven Airport from across the country, rushed through the city with his school bag and nothing else, and then called Dakota and begged to be picked up from the docks so he could get to Harttawa Island all for his ghostly best friend who’d panic-confessed his love, he’d probably look at you like you were completely insane and call for some Fauna Adventurers to take care of you.

    Summary

    “Okay, I think we need to have a talk,” Honami starts. She inhales, then blurts out, “What are we?”

    “Leo/need…?” Shiho says.

    Honami looks like she’s five seconds from driving her palm into her face. “Not the band! I mean like… us! Because apparently you—“ She motions to Saki— “are telling Kohane-chan it’s our six-month anniversary, you—“ She glances at Shiho— “are convinced we have a week to go until two-months, and you—“ She turns to Ichika, then hesitates, seeing the look on her face. “…I don’t think you have any idea what’s going on.”

    “I really… don’t,” Ichika admits helplessly, running her fingers through her hair.

    Saki sputters. “But you’re the one who first asked all of us out!”

    ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

    Or, it’s Saki’s birthday today, and also her group’s sixth-month anniversary of dating!

    Except… Shiho thinks it’s been two, Ichika is convinced she’s just pining, and Honami believes they’re all trapped in a situationship. Yikes.

    Summary

    “Um, thanks,” Shiho mumbles.

    And Ichika laughs, small at first before blooming fully. It commands Shiho’s attention, and they watch, entranced. It's then that they realize, again, for the thousandth time, that there’s a reason she's the front woman of their band. They're unsure what’s so funny, but find themself holding back a smile nonetheless.

    “What?” They ask.

    “You leaned on me.” Ichika stands, stretching. She offers Shiho a hand. “Thank you. For trusting me. Now come on, before we're late for class.”

    or: Shiho, dreams, and change

    Summary

    “Will I see you again?” Honami asks.

    The conductor smiles, holding out the edelweiss flower. An offering. A tether.

    “I believe so. My train will depart eventually, too. Maybe if we're lucky, we'll end up in the same place.”

    Honami accepts the flower. She holds it gingerly, like it would wither away if she weren’t careful.

    or: Honami is the only one who remember their previous lives
