    Summary

    They just…had too many feelings, is the thing. Too many stamped out emotions that burst at the seams, exploded some days, and ended up in them fighting and shouting all the time. All the littlest, smallest of things that irked them. Every foolish action and word spoken (and unspoken). Their personalities that appeared at the surface, eventually, as they lived together, both pretty and ugly. Mostly ugly. Scaramouche had anger issues, while Kazuha cared less and less each day, which, of course, angered Scaramouche some more.

    So they clashed. They argued a lot, they fucked, they fought, fucked again, they cried, bawled their eyes out, fucked and made up, said some things they regretted the next day, after fucking some more and apologizing in between making out, saying they couldn’t live without each other, repeating the words I love you like they’d run out of chances telling them.

    Summary

    The stage lights are cooking Scaramouche alive.

    He’s sweating like a pig, but Kazuha once said it adds to the performance and he ‘looks good like that’—when the lights make his skin glisten, beads of sweat running tracks down his face—so it’s… excusable. As his fingers work the strings and frets of his guitar, his muscle memory kicks in, voice pouring out breathily against the mic as it’s meant to be.

    As always, Kazuha is staring from his place onstage, boring holes into his back; Scaramouche doesn’t know whether or not he’s happy about that.

    Summary

    Swans mate for life - at least that is what you have been told during your studies. Snezhnaya was a land of ruthless cold, so you have never seen an actual swan.
    Not until one fateful day, during a banquet. A fated encounter one might even say, now that you were in a much warmer and humid climate, working as the right hand to the Knave - your lover. Despite escaping your cruel fate that waited for you back in Snezhnaya, you had a feeling that your greedy family would not let you go so easily.

    Summary

    Wanderer is artificial skin stretched over fake limbs and gaping cavities and he was never meant to be anything else. His mother gave him a heart and then she took it away and that was the first time he realised that not being empty is a privilege reserved for humans and gods and that he will never be able to become either.

    Horrifyingly, the next thing that comes out of Wanderer’s mouth is, “Where have you been staying then?”

    “Here and there,” Kazuha muses, looking up at the sky. The sun is coming down hard and Wanderer can see the bottom of his smile like this. “Why?” he inquires, a teasing glint to his eyes when he meets his gaze again. “Are you offering?”

    “No,” Wanderer snips and turns around, successfully ending this conversation by walking away.

    Or: Wanderer wants to be human so badly he forcefully dehumanises himself to cope (a tragedy in three parts)
