This Pure Chroma responds to intent, just like it does for Painters.
As life begins again - Gustave does not hesitate to support all of his friends and family - but now that support comes with a cost that he might no longer afford to be able to pay.

Summary
Verso Dessendre doesn't do romance.
He's fine by himself, really. He rarely needs anyone else other than his best friend, Sciel, to keep him company. Navigating the dating pool is a minefield on the best of days, especially for a man of his wealth and status, and wounds from the past keep his heart on a lock and key. He finds his pleasure by himself, and pours his frustrations with the world into the music he composes for a living. It's enough for him, most of the time. But somehow, some way, Sciel manages to convince him to start the search for a dominant, if only just to blow off some extra steam.
It doesn't go well.
Months later, Verso's just about to give up--before Sciel presses him to meet with one of her friends who's looking to get back into the scene. He relents, if only out of curiosity, and allows her to tell him more.
He's finds out quickly that he's not even remotely prepared for what comes with Gustave Auclair. Not one bit.

Summary
Verso fully intended for Gustave to die at Renoir’s hand. He'd been hoping and planning for this while stalking them across the Continent, crafting ideas on how to insert himself into the empty space left behind, using the man's death as kindling to instill a burning drive in Alicia to force their mother out of the Canvas at long last. This had been his single-minded goal from the beginning of Expedition 33's doomed journey. Everything hinged upon on this one moment, this small sacrifice in a long line of expedition martyrs.
But somehow, despite all of his meticulous planning, he didn't take into account the possibility that the man could be his Alpha.

Summary
La douleur exquise, they had begun to call it — “the exquisite pain.” Love, unrestrained, unrealized, with nowhere to go — transformed into a poison that slowly choked its victims upon their own desire. The feeling of wanting someone so badly you wanted to die from the agony, knowing that you will never, ever, be theirs — ceaselessly growing from within until the grief of wanting slowly chokes you and shreds you from within. The flower of death, fleur de mort, fertilized by yearning that will never bloom.
For Verso, it was a distant concept, worth less than a passing daydream. At least, until the first blood-stained petals fell from his lips in a shadowed alleyway of Lumière, stinging and biting at his throat on its hacking way out.
