    Summary

    Mermaids are said to be carved in the image of Aphrodite's beauty, and is thus the reason the dissolved into sea foam when they died. Kafka doesn't think much of it until a new student named Stelle transfers into her class.

    Summary

    There were other factors. Assurances to fall back on. This stranger, this ‘definitely not who she thinks she is’ stranger, has a softness in their touch Furina would never expect from that other woman. The very concept felt foreign, forget what the twins had said about supposedly gentle hands. Besides, this stranger is being so... nice and sweet right now. It's probably not who she thinks. It couldn’t be. She would be a lot more brusque… Assumably.

    Still, there’s a non-zero chance. A new blot of dark red in her theories, spreading outwards to consume.

    There is a possibility, however small she commands it to be, that the one she’s dancing with, pliant to Furina’s touch, is one Lord Knave, Arlecchino.

    ---------

    Or, Furina attends a masquerade at her friend's request to get away from the tension of a frustrating week, and waltzes with one of said tensions. Meanwhile Arlecchino wrestles with wanting to get closer to Furina out of both respect and intrigue and stumbles into success while mostly keeping her aura intact.

    Summary

    Ei/Miko/Shogun/Sara fics set in my main, canon-compliant Genshin Impact timeline. Listed in recommended reading and mostly-chronological order! You can consider A Malleable Definition of Eternity the 'primary' work in the series, but all fics more-or-less stand on their on unless otherwise mentioned.

    Summary

    Edelgard speaks without thinking.

    “And when we’re old, we’ll complain about how much our bones hurt by the warm fire.”

    “What do you mean?” asks Byleth. They spin, to the rhythm of the song, feet stepping perfectly in sync.

    “Forgive me, my teacher. Please ignore my ramblings.”

    If only hope were fleeting, and not something that clung desperately to Edelgard’s very soul.

    Or

    Edelgard learns what it means to be happy.

    Snippets of Edelgard’s life at four different stages. Meant to be a companion piece to my other story, Safe Harbors.

    Summary

    Jean would argue against the accusation that she ‘imploded’ her life. That would imply that her job had been her life, or that her marriage hadn’t failed years before they signed the papers, or even that all the things she owned meant anything. None of which, of course, was true. That’s why Jean dropped everything and took off for a tiny island that seemed a hell of a lot more like home.
