Summary
Phainon maneuvers himself higher up the bed, laying his head onto the pillow.
His throat feels tight and dry, like he's about to cough up sand: one deep breath, two deep breaths.
Three, four, five, six.
Phainon's eyes close as he feels himself calming down.
Sleep takes him instantly.
Just after the death of Aglaea, Phainon throws himself into her unfinished work out of guilt and grief of the recent departures of his loved ones, hoping to live up to the expectations she viewed him with and to cope, albeit unhealthily.
It comes to a point where he's unable to be awake any longer and is promptly ordered to rest.
Nightmares of Aedes Elysiae have always plagued him, making him fearful to sleep—yet when he shuts his eyes this time, he dreams of his beloved professor who seems to be a bit different than how he truly remembers.

Summary
“Such a charmer you are—whom did you learn that from?” Anaxa replies, carefully considering his words, the hint of incredulity coloring his tone. Phainon's eyes darken slightly, a flicker of frustration shimmering beneath the surface. He takes Anaxa’s hand, the one adorned with the glimmering red stone, and kisses it with the lightest of touches, barely a whisper against his skin.
“I’m simply speaking the truth; you’ve taught me to seek the genuine, even when the world around us might oppose it,” Phainon articulates, a smile gracing his lips, yet the shadow of dissatisfaction lingers in his gaze. “You, who embody the only truth in this chaotic world—it’s what you’ve always proclaimed—and I will forever seek you.”
Anaxagoras and Phainon find comfort in each other through the midst of it all, if only for a little.

Summary
“You said we were going to dance,” he murmured, glancing down at Hugo, whose presence now filled every inch of his vision. “Why are we only swaying?”
Hugo’s laugh was soft, somewhat hollow, as he avoided Lycaon’s gaze, lost in his own thoughts. “This attic isn’t the biggest, you should know that… Either way, I assume you’re enjoying this regardless,” he replied, a wry smile touching his lips.
And he was right, much to Lycaon's dismay.
Perhaps fate will never be kind to Lycaon—but it's better this way, he knows that.

Summary
“Just so I'm clear.” Mydei crosses his arms, studying Phainon with an expression somewhere between amusement and disbelief. “You want to recreate a sweet that doesn't exist here, using replacements for the most basic ingredients, because they also don't exist."
“That about sums it up,” Phainon says.
“And what's the occasion?” Mydei tilts his head. “Is confectioner the newest career you've decided to explore?”
When Phainon learns of a holiday meant for love declarations from the Astral Express crew, he sees an opportunity to finally tell Anaxa what he's been holding in for so long - with a little help from his friends.
How hard could it be to recreate Valentine’s Day traditions, really?

Summary
“That’s not childish.” If he had a heart, he’s sure it would be pounding. “That’s the definition of peace. The soul’s greatest desire. It is never too far out of reach.”
“Isn’t it?” Phainon whispers, but his brow gentles, posture relaxing into the chilly night's air. “And what is it you desire, Anaxa?”
A touch, as the baby dromas snuggles close, and for one fleeting moment, an image crosses his thoughts. Watching the sunset, satisfied from a day fulfilled by the gentle touch of companionship and a homecooked meal. They'd have a home, together.
“Peace,” Anaxa says eventually. “I, too, desire peace.”
Anaxagoras has fifteen days left to alter the course of Amphoreus' history for good, and he's resigned every hour to it wreathed in the slow and agonizing deterioration of a body that is already dead. The plan was to spend the brunt of it alone, in the solitary halls of his quarters.
The plan did not include Phainon, who shows up at his door in the middle of the night, asking for a place to stay.
or: Anaxa is dying. Phainon disagrees.

Summary
“What are you afraid of?”
A common question that Phainon’s asked by now, and Anaxa’s answers always differed each time. And with each response, he allowed the other to see— little by little— what truly lingered inside the mind of the great scholar, opening doors that Anaxa believed he would always keep closed.
Or: the three times Phainon’s tried to see into the heart of Anaxa, and the one time Anaxa tried to see into his.
