Summary
Verso gulps. Monoco can see his throat working — his thin, ridiculously fragile human throat, too easy to squish and too easy to damage.
“I need you to tie me up,” he repeats — voice firmer, more desperate. “And hurt me. Make me feel pain. Make me feel… helpless.”
Monoco can't not notice the shiver that runs through him when he says it. Not an excited one, not something brought by the adrenaline before the fight — pure terror.
Monoco sees it in his eyes, dimmed with exhaustion.
Or: "I used to have horrible dreams. But somehow, it was worse when they stopped. Now it’s just this… oppressive void."

Summary
Clea decides to destroy Verso, believing him too unpredictable to be left alone. Unfortunately for her, his chroma is tied to the very heart of the Canvas. So she neutralizes him the only way she can, separating his chroma, his spirit, from his body.
Now, forced to exist as a ghost in the Canvas, Verso watches over Maelle and tries to find a way to set things right. It gets worse before it gets better. How can he save his mother or help his sister, when he’s nothing but a fading echo of a man he can never be?

Summary
Verso plunged his sword in Lune’s chest, deaf to her dying scream or the hideous squelsh sound the metal made as it pierced flesh. Ice encased his feet, but it had been too slow to stop the lethality of his blow. She spat insults as her eyes glazed over, mixed with promises for the rest of the group to continue.

Summary
He looks too tense and too tired. Like a man trying to mentally prepare himself for a battle he has no energy left to fight.
Verso doesn't want to fight him.
“Hey,” says softly.
His copy glances at him, almost startled. Then looks down again. Hesitates. Blinks a couple of times; nervously licks his lips. “I'm sorry,” croaks.
Verso tilts his head. “For what?”
His copy shrugs. “For existing.”
Or: at the end of the world, Verso meets a familiar face.

Summary
Verso thought he had his bloodthirst under control.
So why... why, why, why did he feel so overwhelmed with thirst the moment he saw Gustave? Why did the scent of that candy-sweet blood make him feel like he could drain every living creature on the Continent of every drop of their blood and still not be satisfied?
And why—
Why can't he bring himself to walk away again?
