   Summary

   To avoid drawing suspicions to his nature as an immortal, it had become clear long ago that Mika couldn't stay in a place for too long. This meant avoiding entanglement at all costs, and remaining untethered. That was the one principle he had set for himself, as a safety measure.

   And yet... his life did get woven into that of a poor tailor which fails to meet success despite his undeniable gift for his craft.

   This is the tale of the one night he tried to abide by his principle, and leave his lover behind.

   Said lover doesn't take it well.
