    Summary

    Kaveh remembered the stories. Cattle that were sacred. Cattle that were never to be touched.

    “Please. I’m sorry. I’ll do anything. If it’s punishment you want—or justice—I’ll take it. Just spare them. Some of them are still kids.”

    The god tilted his head. Stepped closer. Looked Kaveh over like he was something to be carved open.

    “Anything?”

    Kaveh swallowed. “Y-yes.”

    Or: Kaveh’s juniors pissed off a god. Kaveh offered himself in their place. He didn’t expect the punishment to last a lifetime. And he definitely didn’t expect to enjoy it.

    Summary

    And Xiao is once again faced with these thoughts, niggling little things that weed up through his chest and make his heart ache when Aether is not around; he hates the feeling. He hates even more, however, the idea of approaching Aether with the intent of sticking to his side until he inevitably pushes Xiao away. Xiao has never truly longed for closeness before, and he fears he cannot deny that what he wants with Aether is not an emotional intimacy—they have that already—but a physical one.

    And that scares him.

    . ..— ~ ☆ ~ —.. .

    Showing affection by lip contact had never exactly been something Xiao was eager to try.

    Summary

    "Stars, they say, burn brightest when they are about to die, and Xiao thinks it a bittersweet medicine to be expected to swallow his guilt when the cosmos are not within his realm to protect."

    Xiao must spend the longest night's vigil at Aether’s bedside after an errant attack from the Abyss Order in Poisson. He will live, Xiao knows; but waiting is the crueller fate, when all he has to convince himself of this is that his lover would not die to something so benign.
    And in this evening, Xiao will learn much about how he has changed since beginning to travel with his partner. The first is that he is ill-equipped to console Paimon in a way that matters; but the rest? Well, it will take a bitter dream to lay to rest demons Xiao cannot face by himself.

    Direct sequel to "This Side of the Stars", set approximately 3 months later
