Summary
Across the sea, the cliffs of Hiisi Island stood tall against the wind, and Columbina looked out to them from the shoreline, the wispy train of her dress blowing about in the breeze. Sandrone marched over as best as she could, considering she had to yank each heel out of the sand with every step.
“What. In the name of the Tsaritsa. Are we doing on the beach.”
Columbina’s lips curled up into a smile. “I’m going swimming.”
On a quiet evening, Sandrone ponders truths that could mean everything or nothing at all.

Summary
“Maybe I am ordering my own execution,” Baiheng says, slowly. “Maybe in a few decades I will come to regret this. But it doesn’t matter. What matters is that I try, and I live, and I don’t waste my life hanging on the precipice, refusing to fall.” This time, she fully entwines their fingers together. “Jingliu-jie. Do you love me?”
Jingliu looks away. “To love you is to let you become my undoing. You became my undoing a long, long time ago.”
Jingliu and Baiheng, forever fated to orbit each other.

Summary
Haitham understands the nature of these sorts of afflictions, how they wax and wane through the seasons but are lifelong if left unchecked. So, the spectacle before him is normal, expected even, but Haitham has spent over ten years observing, studying, waiting. What was it that he’d once said in the tavern—more time on contemplation, less time on execution?
But the time for contemplation has come and gone. Haitham has spent eons watching Kaveh fight to reach the shore, without ever realizing he could have brought Kaveh back himself.
Kaveh’s sorrow has always lurked just beneath the surface, preparing to strike. Haitham waits, and waits, and waits.

Summary
So Toya watches as Akito heats the vegetables, prepares the chicken for frying, drops the curry cubes in the pot. It’s not the first time Akito has cooked for him, but it’s the first time he’s done so as partners. Some tiny part of him secretly hopes they’ll be able to keep doing this for years to come, and then Toya has to laugh about how sentimental he’s getting over some food. But then again, it’s difficult not to get sentimental while thinking about Akito, the person who knows him like the back of his hand, the person who’s always been there for him, his best friend.
how can the same dish made by someone else taste so different?

Summary
It occurs to her that the confiscation of the synthesizer had resulted in the loss of the daily Nightcord meetings, and with them the music. Yes. It had been so long since she’d listened to any music at all. She thinks back to when she’d heard one of Kanade’s songs for the first time, the strange stirring in her chest as the video played, and then to that time in the SEKAI when they’d listened to Kanade’s demo together. Perhaps…
“Kanade… Can you sing for me?”
mafuyu, kanade, and a late night in the SEKAI

Summary
It is not a curse, though many would say it behaves as one. A curse is something malicious, something ugly. Kaveh chose this. He did it with the recklessness and lack of foresight of a child--but he chose this. It is not a curse.
It is a blessing. He asked for this.
Kaveh loves and he suffers for it, more physically than one might expect.

Summary
“Don’t you have some good news of your own?” she asks innocently. “I was wondering when you were going to bring it up.”
“Hmm?”
“Your engagement, silly! What else?”
Kaveh’s jaw drops.
“We’re all so exci—”
“Cup!” Tighnari shouts, barreling in from the garden.
“Collei, cup!” Cyno yells at the same time.
Alhaitham “accidentally” spins the Sumeru rumor mill.

You promised you would be back three months ago. Your room is collecting dust and your plants are dying.
Al-HaithamKaveh moves to the desert. He is not quite ready for what awaits him there, nor is he prepared to leave behind what tethers him to the forest.

Summary
Kaveh and Alhaitham live together. Nothing ever happens. Nothing ever hurts. But sometimes, when Kaveh watches Nahida idly finish her homework, he gets the feeling that he’s forgetting something important.
Kaveh must have fallen asleep at his desk again, the morning light hitting his eyes like a slap. He blinked at the soft green blanket over his shoulders. When he stumbled into the hall, Alhaitham was sitting in the living quarters with his back to him, soundproof earpieces alit.
He had a stupid moment where he wanted to call out to Alhaitham. What would he even say? ‘I’m having some trouble.’ ‘Is the blanket yours?’ ‘You were right, I’m in over my head.’ ‘Can you hear me out?’ ‘Help me. Please, help me.’
Stupid. He yawned and went to stumble his way to the kitchen. From his periphery, he thought he saw Alhaitham turn towards him with a look like he wanted to say something. But that, too, surely was just a very nice dream.

Summary
Gentle rays of moonlight have begun streaming in through the windows, and the two of them stand brilliantly illuminated in the centre of the brightest ray—Columbina's laughing at Sandrone's indignance, the moonlight highlighting the soft curve of her face while the other scolds her.
She looks ethereal, every bit the Moon Goddess she is, and Arlecchino can't help the way her heart sharply aches with something like jealousy.
