Summary
"Children." All motion stopped. Alicia had the decency to look sheepish. "How do you think it looks when the children of the commander can't even bother to focus through the practice scenario?"
His voice was tight and clipped, and if it wasn't for the way his lips seemed to be fighting an upward turn, Alicia might've thought she was in real trouble.
"Sorry, Papa." She signed at the same time Verso mumbled "She started it."
---
Really it's five times Alicia finds Verso, and one time he finds her, instead.

Summary
The spectre is on the move again. It descends a step or two on the staircase. A sound similar to the tap of a cane rings in Verso's ears, but he's most certainly imagining it. What is real, though, is Renoir's outstretched hand. Its blackened fingers curl slightly, followed by the whole arm. The meaning this time is clear as day.
Come along.
His chest heaves with indecision. Then he finally rises.
----
Verso stumbles his way into the manor, where he finally gets the chance at a heart-to-heart with the man who will one day end them all.

Summary
Of all the sights Verso Dessendre had expected to see when he stepped into an alley two filthy corners away from the rue Laplace, it was not this: an omega with his back to a medieval wall, sword held in one steady hand, holding two alphas at bay.
Or: It's midsummer in the Paris of the Belle Époque and Verso Dessendre's strange, half-lived life starts to change forever, while Gustave Auclair only hopes his changes for the better--and that the annoying alpha who's suddenly turned up to disrupt everything would just go away.

Summary
He knew everyone here, some better than he’d thought he would, some faces well-known even if the souls behind them didn’t recognize him. Everything was quiet, unchanging except for the endless shift of the seasons, and he told himself this was what he needed to be happy.
So when Verso Dessendre saw a strange car, road-dusty with a number plate and rental sticker that announced its further strangeness, bouncing down the town’s ancient, cobblestoned main road, he was instantly suspicious.
Or: Verso Dessendre, acclaimed author and illustrator of the Esquie et ses amis children's book series, lives a quiet and isolated life in Vielle Lumière-sur-Mer for reasons he doesn't examine too closely. When a physics professor on sabbatical shows up in his sleepy backwater town, wearing the face of a man he watched die over a hundred years ago, the questionable peace Verso's found starts to become something else.
