Summary
“I suppose I missed you,” she admits, squeezing his hand. “I’m happy you’re back.”
Childe laughs softly, nuzzling into the crook of Lumine’s neck. The sound is both familiar and foreign, like a language learned in childhood but faded slowly with time. She lets the sounds swallow her, drowning herself in the cadence of his merriment, relearning the round sonority and the smooth notes.
“I wasn’t gone for that long.”
We can’t have it all, but maybe we can have a sliver.

Summary
At the celebration feast, Nilou asked Cyno if he would be happy continuing to be the General Mahamatra.
Cyno said, “It’s not about being happy. There are merely a lot of things that I must do.”
Alhaitham can’t say for certain why Cyno’s words bothered him. In a way, the sentiment is unsurprising; Cyno is, after all, dutiful to a fault. It makes sense that he puts his work over himself. Even so, Alhaitham wonders what the shape of Cyno’s happiness would be, if he allowed it to take form. If he ever allowed someone like Alhaitham to witness it.
Which he certainly never would.

Summary
It began with fatigue, with shaking hands and malaise that haunted his every step. Annoying, but not unmanageable-- Cyno was raised in the desert, after all. He'd been through worse.
So he fit a couple more hours of sleep into his already overfilled schedule and waited for the symptoms of whatever minor ailment he contracted to abate.
They didn't.

Summary
"Mama said I should share my things if I want to make friends," Klee says. She opens her hands to reveal a small collection of sweetflower mints.
Albedo pops one into his mouth, a burst of flavour across his taste buds. "I've never made a friend before," he tells her.
You could call this a story about loneliness, but there are still bright moments to be found within its pages. Be sure to treasure every second of it, because it won't last forever.

Summary
Prince Cyno is waiting for him at the entrance. Wordlessly, he takes Tighnari’s hand and kisses it stiffly, dutifully. He is strikingly handsome, but his expression is sharp and severe. Disinclined to laughter, to joy.
“Your Highness,” he says, and does not smile.
“Your Highness,” Tighnari says, and despairs.a tale of two princes.
