Summary
Oh, Xiao had become such an audacious moron. Balancing next to him sat a jug filled with the finest wine. A yaksha has no desire… should not… but…
He sighed and took a sip. It didn’t take more than a minute for the wind to stir. Expected. You could say… planned.“You know,” a sweet voice chuckled from the edge of the rooftop he sat on, “you could have called me.”
(Based on the Xiao Picture in Act 3, Lantern Rite 2026)

Venti turned to him.
"May I say something?" he asked.
"Are you often inclined to ask such a thing?"
Venti laughed. He bumped his wings against Xiao's.
"Your eyes are the color of sweetflowers." He winked. "And your lips taste just as sweet."

Summary
When Pure Vanilla throws open the balcony doors and holds his staff aloft, the first thing he sees are the tree’s branches devoid of his feathered friends. It’s an unwelcome sight, a clear departure from their usual routine. Had something happened? Has someone drawn them away?
A flutter of movement draws his eyes upwards towards the roof; instantly, relief floods through Pure Vanilla’s jam. The flock is mercifully still here, perched above his head on a nearby rooftop. They are, however, strangely silent and still, huddled closely together while glancing between Pure Vanilla and the tree. Pure Vanilla follows their nervous gaze, peering into the branches as he holds his staff high –
Only to spy a long, lithe form curled in the shadows.

Summary
Three brush strokes to the right. Two to the left. A hand smoothing over his forehead, sweeping his bangs aside.
Shadow Milk knows the pattern well. His hair is always brushed the same way, in movements that seem almost robotic in how perfectly they’ve mastered the repetition. The bristles of the brush always skim over his closed eyes with such care, nimbly avoiding anywhere they might prick or poke. It always ends with a few final touches, tucking any stray wisps back into place before the brush is set back down on the dresser before him.
Pure Vanilla’s hands smooth through Shadow Milk’s hair, coming to rest gently on his shoulders.
“There. Ready for the day?”
Shadow Milk does not answer.
Shadow Milk has not answered in a long, long time.

Summary
Excerpt 1: “The Revolution succeeded; it crumbled afterwards only because those whose lives got revolutionized did not follow up on the revolutionary success,” said the Bride, her words setting their closed hearts aflame. “This time, will you help us help you?”
Excerpt 2: “Just helping the boys return to their old selves is not enough. Their schooling and future prospects will still be hindered whenever their being children of terrorists comes to light. Only by changing your world –- your society -- into one where criminals’ relatives are no longer assigned collective guilt can you truly save your brothers. This is the kind of revolution you must bring about: your Survival Strategy.”

Summary
After each of the Heroes had their encounter with their other halves, discussions are at an all-time high on how to best deal with the Beasts, and Pure Vanilla—the Holder of Compassion, needs to convince his friends that redemption is possible.
But how can he, when he stumbles upon a letter, written five thousand years ago, with a simple plea.You, who open this letter—whether you are a hero, a wanderer, or just a soul who dares to read it after stumbling into this place—you must do what I could not.
I beg of you. You must bring the Beasts down. Break their dough. Silence their roar. Scatter their crumbs to the winds. Leave nothing that can rise again.
For if they live, none of us will.From there, he is led down a trail of letters, and with it, a truth no hero should ever have to read.
Will he be able to uncover a path to redemption—or undeniable proof that the Beasts are far too gone to save?--
TLDR; Pure Vanilla finds various letters depicting what happened during the fall of the Virtues. Hopefully, he can convince the others that redemption is still possible, or is it?

Summary
With his wretched uncle Decarabian dead and gone, college dropout Venti returns to his tiny, dying hometown of Stone Gate, hoping to regain some sense of normalcy after two years away, but unfortunately, things have changed. Not beyond recognition, but just enough to make him question his footing.
Fortunately, his semi-estranged former childhood best friend Xiao lets him tag along for a hangout night. It’s not the same as he remembers, and of course things go wrong, but maybe, just maybe, things are closer than they appear.

Summary
The room is too bright.
It’s quaint, in a nauseating sort of way. Polished floors glint from the gleaming honeycomb chandeliers overhead, make him squint. A few vases sprinkled here and there, filling the room with a sickeningly sweet scent – even a waffle-cone headrest framing the silken sheets of a neatly-tucked bed. Outside, the golden sun gleams, the gentle rays of light spilling past curtains that waver in the afternoon breeze.
It's meant to be beautiful. Luxurious. Welcoming.
With one sweep of his cane, Shadow Milk tears it apart.

Summary
"For loving her felt like loving himself from a perspective he never knew."
A battle took place between the Ancient and Beast cookies, temporarily allowing the heroes to determine the fate of the olden cookies. Pure Vanilla Cookie knew they couldn’t depend on seals forever–they had to end the evil within. The best way was to offer companionship, even though neither side wanted to do it.
But among the Ancients, Dark Cacao Cookie seemed content the most, uncharacteristically. He loved her so much, yet knew there was nothing he could do for his apathetic counterpart. So, he decided to cherish the moments they share, no matter how futile they are for Mystic Flour Cookie. This was the life of the fatherly resolute, and motherly apathetic.
Alas, the era of peace wasn’t going to last forever. The Dark Cacao Kingdom, faced with the corpse-riding Moldswept Crisis, had to unite as one again with familiar faces making their appearance. But faced with their fated end born out of unalive creatures and burning emotions, could they survive this nightmare?
Or: Mystic Flour Cookie accidentally "mothers" a nation into mental well-being, including the lovedrunk king.

Summary
The boy flinches at Kazuha’s voice, almost as if he doesn’t believe his words. His long, midnight hair scatters over his shoulders as he looks to the side, then firmly announces, “My name is Kunikuzushi, human child. And I am the god of this mountain.”
Kazuha sputters. “Eh?”
Like wisteria growing under his skin, that lonesome cottage has always been there, lingering in the back of his mind. Kazuha’s fate was planned from the beginning—take over the family trade, and live out the rest of his days in quiet solitude.
But when he arrives, the history of the cottage resurfaces. Stories unfold, mysteries unravel, and all because Kazuha placed a single flower in the hand of a stone statue. Somehow, with such a small gift, he has awakened a puppet.
And one who is all too willing to exact vengeance against the gods.

Summary
"You got scammed."
"He was a very convincing salesman!" Hu Tao's voice comes through the speaker sharp and a few touches too loud. Xiao holds his phone an inch further away from his head, hoping to salvage his eardrums.
"You said he told you it was a magic music box," Xiao says flatly. He lets every ounce of judgement seep into his words.
"Exactly! Very convincing, Xiao!"
In which Venti sells magical music boxes, Xiao is his unwitting customer, and there is absolutely, definitely nothing more to it at all.

"What happened then?” asks Hu Tao, propping her chin up in her hands and swaying back and forth like a child listening to a story.
Xiao blinks slowly. “What do you mean? He left. Obviously.”
“Aiyah, he just left? Just like that? Without even talking about it?”
Xiao’s eyes narrow. “Is that not… typical?”
Director Hu Tao’s eyebrows rise up. “Is it typical?
aka. Venti kisses Xiao, and Xiao does not understand why.

Summary
Then—then he met Venti, and suddenly his life was an embarrassment of riches, his days and nights overflowing with companionship, the likes of which he never had. He had been almost entirely mute for weeks, at first, answering all of Venti’s questions with one word answers. He had wanted so badly to say more, was so fearful that Venti would think him boring, disinterested—that he would leave, eventually, and Xiao wouldn’t get to have this again.

Summary
“Does a body make a person alive?” Venti murmured.
His nose then pressed against the underside of Xiao’s jaw. The faint scent of copper and qingxin washed over him as he closed his eyes. He has been pondering an awful lot lately. Maybe it was part and parcel of being a bard, maybe it was just Venti, maybe it was the erosion acting up again, maybe—
“Is my karma affecting you?” Xiao’s voice was firmer, more questioning, but the last syllable echoed like a plea carried off into the wind.
“No,” he murmured, chuckling softly. A small peck was placed at the tender spot behind Xiao’s ear, “Never. This ache is… my own.” He leant back just enough to meet Xiao’s gaze again. The light in his eyes dimmed.
