Summary
Himeko, a skilled mechanic, spends a late night in her garage working on a restored muscle car when the calm is interrupted by Kafka, a notorious underground racer, who arrives in a battered, smoke-spewing wreck. Despite her disdain for Kafka's reckless reputation, Himeko reluctantly agrees to repair the car after Kafka offers cash and a tantalizing promise of information. As Himeko works through the night, the two engage in a tense but revealing exchange, highlighting their contrasting philosophies on cars and racing. By dawn, the car is fixed, but the encounter leaves Himeko unsettled, sensing that this meeting marks the beginning of something she can't quite define—or control.

Summary
Xilonen’s eyes widened, and her jaw went slack for a moment before she managed to speak. “You wore them into an explosion?” The question escaped her, half incredulous, half exhausted.
“Well, yeah! They’re supposed to be tough, right?” Mavuika’s signature grin returned, though there was an unmistakable tinge of awkwardness behind it. She gave a small shrug, as if that somehow justified everything. “I figured they could handle it.”
Xilonen closed her eyes for a long moment, pressing her fingers to her temples as if trying to physically push away the rising tide of exasperation. This woman… She inhaled deeply, holding onto her last thread of patience. Every encounter with Mavuika stretched it a little thinner, and today was no exception.The Pyro Archon has a knack for breaking things—especially her sunglasses. And every time they shatter, she finds herself back at Xilonen’s workshop.
