Summary
Three brush strokes to the right. Two to the left. A hand smoothing over his forehead, sweeping his bangs aside.
Shadow Milk knows the pattern well. His hair is always brushed the same way, in movements that seem almost robotic in how perfectly they’ve mastered the repetition. The bristles of the brush always skim over his closed eyes with such care, nimbly avoiding anywhere they might prick or poke. It always ends with a few final touches, tucking any stray wisps back into place before the brush is set back down on the dresser before him.
Pure Vanilla’s hands smooth through Shadow Milk’s hair, coming to rest gently on his shoulders.
“There. Ready for the day?”
Shadow Milk does not answer.
Shadow Milk has not answered in a long, long time.

Summary
Alhaitham's life has been a constant test that he is failing miserably. He doesn't know what he's doing wrong, or why it's so hard to just act the way everyone else does. Kaveh's little comments about his supposed lack of humanity aren't helping either. Does it matter that he knows he's not a machine if the whole world believes he is?

Summary
Lord Kusanali was safe. Azar was exiled, Cyno and the Traveler were bouncing around Sumeru finishing off the remaining Fatui hanging around, and Tighnari had recovered from his injury. On paper, everything was going well.
So why was Alhaitham shaking as he attempted to unlock his front door for the first time in weeks?In the vulnerability of injury and exhaustion, Alhaitham can’t quite find the strength to deal with his emotions and spirals.
