    Summary

    The morning begins with her untangling herself from Scaramouche’s body, wiggling out of his hold with a wince, prying his hand from her waist, finger by finger.

    And like a clock running on "Lumine" time, as soon as she yawns and stretches her arms over her head, he cracks open his eyes, peeking at her from under his lashes. The sunlight falls over him in slivered rays that cut through the seams of the curtains, clawing over his face. His expression is undecipherable, murky river waters; on the edge of discontent, she decides, from being disturbed out of his dreams.

    "You woke up late," Scaramouche says lazily. "It’s already noon."

    or: when you love what cannot be loved.

    Summary

    Lumine, like the children in his yard, is just probably confused. He’s going to let her down gently because the poor woman is just lying to herself that they’re more than what they are and he’s more than who he is. He’s just a guy she’s sleeping with, a guy that raises her son and takes care of her home and is a nanny but not really. Scaramouche does gardening and plumbing and other things for free, but not really, too.

    Cleaning the kitchen counters until they squeak, he would never be able to do domesticity, Scaramouche thinks.

    Summary

    “What if I didn’t want to drink it with sugar?” Lumine says that, and yet still takes a sip from her cup.

    Wanderer’s gaze remains on Lumine, and his face distorts as though he’d seen another bug—it reminds Paimon of his more insane days, and that’s why she keeps her mouth shut, despite how eerie he’s being. “But you like sugar,” Wanderer says, mouth twisted, a petulant edge to his voice. “You like sweet. Food, places, people—isn’t it better if they’re sweet?”

    Paimon’s jaw drops open. Hot chocolate dribbles out from the corner of her mouth, sliding down her chin. The question feels like a trap. Is most definitely one, in fact, and even Paimon realizes that.

    But Lumine, she doesn’t even blink. Instead, she puts down the coffee, smiling. Lumine is always so nonchalant in the face of Wanderer’s volatility. Paimon doesn’t know how she keeps herself so calm. “Sometimes,” Lumine says lightly, “I prefer bitter.”

    or: how to tell when your traveller and wanderer are in love.

    Summary

    Night—the first time they’d slept under the stars together, her eyes wary, her voice a warning. Keep away. Don’t come close.

    But she still offers him a blanket, bleeding heart as always, blink and you could see her chest, carved open and weeping blood—only because I hate the sound of teeth chattering together, she mutters, not knowing that he doesn’t feel the cold, not if he detaches himself from sensation and nerves, revert himself back into a doll once more.

    There is a reason he survived Snezhnaya, survived the Cryo Archon. What harm could the tame winds outside of Snezhnayan ice storms do in comparison?

    Yet, he takes what she offers.

    A wanderer, a traveller, and what happens after defeat and victory.
