    Summary

    "I'm sorry!" they yell, turning around and facing the street. "I'm so fucking sorry, okay? Whatever it is I did wrong, everything, I regret it. I take it back, and I'm sorry, and I'm sick of repenting so just please—"

    The door behind them opens, and Lyric freezes.

    They turn, slowly, awkwardly. If they could pick a single moment of their life to turn invisible, just one instance where they could be saved from being seen by, judged by, and punished by those who look at them—they'd choose right now.

    It's Eiji.

    Lyric, one of Dr. Callenreese's students from last semester, shows up in the middle of the night with a question: Did things get harder before they got easier? (Or is it just me? Was I never supposed to—?)
