    Summary

    Caelus stumbles upon one of Dan Heng's logs — except it's not just regular expedition notes. It's a clinical documentation of the thousand years Dan Heng spent searching for him through the memoria tide. A thousand years he never mentioned. A thousand years he was apparently planning to keep to himself forever.

    Naturally, Caelus has some feelings about this.

    (Or: It takes a millennium-long crisis, March's meddling, and one very flustered confession for Dan Heng to finally say what he means. Caelus is just trying to get his emotionally constipated lizard maybe-boyfriend to stop carrying the weight of the universe alone. Communication happens. Eventually.)

    Summary

    Harmony is pretty sure that Corbeau and his pack of henchmen are the kind of people her mom warned her about before leaving home, but maybe she should double check. Triple check, even. It's all just to make sure because her mom also told her not to judge a book by its cover.

    Summary

    (This story takes place after the Killing Game route!)

    Yugamu didn't exactly know what to expect from his new roommates. What he could be sure about, though, was that no matter how weird the others might seem, he was still the strangest, the only person not entangled in their romantic affairs, the odd one out.

    ***

     

    The tale of one ex-assassin discovering the meaning of domesticity, family, life and healthy love.

    Summary

    Yugamu tilts his head as he pretends to consider the sincerity of his words. “You never fail to amuse me, Sumino. For one, you’re a terrible liar. And second…” He looms over him, a shadowy creature incarnate in the murky darkness of his room. “Who in their right mind lets someone tie them up when they clearly have something to hide?”

    After learning why his aptitude for killing is increasing at such an incredible rate, Takumi has a lot on his mind. A quick lie-down and meltdown later, he's banging on the door to the very person who nurtured that talent.

    Summary

    “Let’s go camping!”

    He waited a beat. Then two. Her expression didn’t change. “Don’t tell me you’re serious.”

    “Of course I am!” She threw open the door, running back around the car towards the trunk.

    “Futaba,” Goro scoffed, “you do realize we can’t just go camping without camping equipment, right?”

    “Which is why I came prepared!” She lifted the drunk with a dramatic ‘voila!’ and, low and behold, there were a few bags he definitely didn’t remember packing, much less owning in the first place.

     



    Or: Futaba and Goro take a road trip.

    Summary

    “Indulge my curiosity,” he says brightly. “How did Ren convince you?”
    “Huh?”
    “You know Maruki’s dream world,” says Akechi. “I’ve always wondered. You got your mother back.”
    Asshole. Jerk. Piece of shit. Why is Ren dating him. Why would anyone date him?
    “And,” she grits out.
    Akechi doesn’t let the question hang, he shoots it out of the air. “Why,” he says slowly, “would you agree to let that go?”
    Sixteen minutes.
    “I said we’re not gonna talk,” she says.
    Akechi shrugs. “You started it,” he says, “but all right.”

    --

    futaba and akechi discuss the pitfalls of wish fulfilment.

    Summary

    Futaba closes the door again for some thinking time. That was Goro Akechi on her doorstep. Well, on Sojiro’s doorstep, but Sojiro’s not here. Only Futaba is here.

    Open door. Peep round it. Akechi is a sort of heap on the step. Asleep? Or… possibly dead? Dead mom-killing ex-detective on Futaba’s doorstep? Didn’t he die four years ago? How is he here? Futaba hasn’t slept. Or eaten. She shouldn’t have to deal with this. What do you even do with a murder-detective possibly-corpse? She closes the door.

    Okay, no, she can’t just ignore him and hope he goes away.

    Well, she could though. It’s super super tempting.

    No, come on. What would Ren do? What would Sojiro do?

    What would Mom do?

    Summary

    Kaveh sighs again, and this time his features knit together and he squeezes his eyes shut. “Can you stop being clinical for two minutes and hear what I’m actually asking you?”

    “I am listening.” It’s true. “And I do understand.”

    “Do you, now?”

    “I do.”

    Kaveh pinches the bridge of his nose. The frustration there isn’t feigned or overblown—it’s real, deep in the lines of his face and the tension drawing his shoulders. “I’d want you to be here,” he says again, but quieter.

    “I will be here,” Alhaitham answers. “And it’ll be with the cure.”

    When an expedition gone wrong leaves Kaveh with three days to live, Alhaitham and Cyno fight to find the cure while Tighnari fights to buy them time.

    Sometimes it does take a village.

    Summary

    “Hmph.” Kaveh steps closer. "So why choose to listen to my voice even when I’m complaining about you?”

    Alhaitham shuts his eyes. “Just because.”

    “Being a little vague there, Scribe Alhaitham.”

    “I just…” Alhaitham sighs. “I just really like your voice.”

    Or, Kaveh learns sign language because he fears that Alhaitham is growing tired of his voice. He doesn't understand that Alhaitham actually... loves it.

    Summary

    Although the calculations by scholars from Spantamad and Kshahrewar dictated that the speed of light was approximately 299,792,458 metres per second, the former Acting Grand Sage would like to include the week leading up to the origin of the aforementioned light to be part of the speed.

    That is to say - it’s Kaveh’s fault. It’s entirely Kaveh’s fault.

    Kaveh and Alhaitham touch something that they both ought not have, and end up in each other's bodies. Shit. Somehow, despite the harsh words, harsher looks, and the utter shitshow they find themselves in, they manage to come out of it perhaps understanding each other just a little bit better...

    Summary

    “Archons preserve my patience,” Tighnari groans, massaging his temples.

    “You split your household chores. You bring him his lunch at the Akademiya daily. Alhaitham looks after you when he thinks you’re sick. You two have weekly dinner dates. Kaveh, you do realize that with the list you’ve given me you’re both just a signed document short of being legally-wedded spouses, right?”

    “Perhaps Kaveh’s just ‘twisted up’ after they’ve unknowingly ‘tied the knot’.” Cyno muses thoughtfully.

    Silence.

    “... Did you get it? Because they’re practically married? And Kaveh’s—”

    “Cyno, qamari, I adore you, but finish that statement and you will find yourself exiled from my bed for the next month.”

    Cyno wisely snaps his mouth shut.

    (Or, after the Interdarshan Championship, Kaveh finds that his living situation with Alhaitham has become… peaceful, more or less?

    But why? Nothing’s changed between him and his stoic junior. He simply prepares Alhaitham’s meals, sees him off to the Akademiya, takes care of their home, arranges his schedule so he doesn’t miss their weekly dinners at Lambad’s—

    But that’s completely normal roommate behavior.

    … Right?)

    Summary

    “Here,” Kurusu says. “I can probably carry you.“

    Goro doesn’t even get a chance to complain before Kurusu is sliding an arm around his back and beneath his knees. He’s immediately greeted by a wave of pain that outclasses all the others before, a kind of pain that makes him feel as if his entire body is breaking in two. Makes him think: fuck, maybe it actually is.

    He grits his teeth. “Joker, stop.”

    Kurusu instantly freezes, meeting his eyes with clear alarm.

    “What’s wrong?”

    “I think my hip might be broken.”

    or;

    After their duel, a chance encounter with the Reaper has disastrous consequences for Goro and Akira. Trapped together and left to their own devices, it's going to take more than luck to get them both out alive.

    Summary

    The gunshot was clean through his arm, no shrapnel or broken bones, but a bullet wound is still a bullet wound, and Rei harbors serious doubts about his arm ever being quite as functional as it once was. He supposes that most people would be disappointed with that prognosis. The caldera of puckered scar tissue feels like a trophy; or maybe a gold medal won from a race, the feel of a small, sticky hand in his.

    On the floor, Miri hums a song from Critter Crossing.

    Rei thinks he’s satisfied with this turn of events.

    “You’ve received a proposal?” asks Strohl, “For your hand?”

    Will’s smile sours into a grimace. He turns towards the book in his hands and thumbs at a page.

    “So," he sighs, “you’ve heard about that.”

    Will receives his first marriage proposal three years after taking the throne. They both take it very well (until they don't).

    Summary

    Sometime in the night he wakes with a hand outstretched, aiming past the glass ceiling into the black beyond. He is artificial; he is two lives; he is the ideals of the prince; he is the prince; he is king. He is something to be feared.

    There was a part of him that believed that he would die killing Louis. There is a part of him forever stuck in that past, those battles, even as time continues its relentless march and leaves him to embrace his kingly duties in the hopes of creating a utopia against all the forces working against him.

    They’ve made it to the end, lives intact. His friends are with him. Strohl may love him.

    Will… struggles to trust that. The dawn, laughing from its place high above, arrives regardless.

    or: the seasons in between the first and second journey which, unfortunately for will, are journeys all in of themselves.
