    Summary

    The last thing she sees before the roof begins to cave in is a blur of blue accompanied by the sound of metal ringing under impact. Her eyes are squeezed shut as she cowers with her arms instinctively over her head, still holding her breath until the pressure in her chest forces her to exhale. An eternity passes though, before she finally opens her eyes and looks up to see the force that stopped her from being crushed flat in an inferno, debris on his back.

    In all honesty, she’d rather the fire had taken her as a victim. But it didn’t.

    She squints her eyes, knowing he can see her from inside the suit now. Finally, after what seems like eons, she musters the only thing she can. “How the fuck did you see me?”

    “Heat sensors,” he says, augmented voice deadpan and robotic, but still so recognizable—at least to Courtney. “I’m not exactly interested in rebuilding my suit from scratch again.”

    Well, fuck.

    It’s been seven months since Robert and Mandy told the Z-Team they were dating, six months since Courtney left SDN, and five and twenty three days since Robert and Courtney last spoke.

    Or, the Blonde Blazer romance route is still somehow an Invisigal romance route.

    Summary

    "You're a cavalry captain to an order of knights with no cavalry to speak of. Your intelligence network is outstanding yet you never use everything you learn. Jean and Amber are the face of the Knights, while you scuttle about in the shadows laying down scraps of clues for them to find. To make them more successful. Not to mention that you too were a son to Lord Ragnvindr but no one, least of all you or Diluc, acknowledges that anymore. While he shines as the eligible bachelor in the day and Darknight at dusk, you support him from the shadows. And you're here now, with me on a journey with no clear goal at the moment. Lending me your time and expertise when you likely have plenty of work back in Mondstadt. No thanks needed. Nothing in return. It just...makes no sense. You make no sense, Kaeya," Lumine grumbled.

    Trust is a tricky thing with Kaeya, as Lumine had learned. Even their months of traveling together weren't enough to make him open up to her freely. Though, if someone told her that all she needed to do to make Kaeya talk to her was wine him, dine him, and challenge him to a game of 20 questions, she would have done so long ago.

    Summary

    When it struck Castiel, he was in mid-flight. It dropped him out of the sky like a sparrow buffeted by gale-force winds. Castiel set down the first place he could find. He ended up standing in a field in Switzerland, swaying on his feet and staring down at his body, dazed by what it had just done.

    Summary

    Everything in their perfect little world is perfect, encased in a snow globe that has cherry blossoms for glittery snowflakes, and a melancholy melody that plays over and over again. Yet, Makoto can’t help the gnawing feeling in his stomach that begins to ache from the moment he wakes up, to the moment he falls back asleep.

    Aka, pining has never felt this painful.
