Bookmarker's Notes
Sae considers at times, sparingly, uncaringly, if an unconscious part of him had redesigned Shidou—made this Shidou—to be his opposite: instinct to his logic, intuition to his data, frantic carnal pleasure to his slow burn games. Consider if, maybe, they remain fundamentally the same person inside, just parallels, two separate faces of the same coin.
But neither of them are half of anything.
Some nights, they complete each other just the same.

Summary
"Did you ever," says Yatora, "do things with those people?"
Murai’s gaze flicks towards him. There, again: seriousness with an incredibly light hand. "Define things."
Yatora looks at the ground.
He says, "Things like what you did with me last weekend."

Bookmarker's Notes
“Yakumo-san," says Yatora, his voice coming from so far within, where it’s had to lie dormant for so long, that it seems disembodied. "I want to want."
All his words hang in the room, free for Murai to do whatever he wants with them, whether to rearrange them or to sever any connection that might bridge the pause between two thoughts altogether. But Murai must also know that desire cannot exist by itself, cannot exist without eventually finding an object, and he’s never needed permission to take, to do as he pleases, and Yatora only distantly registers the pad of Murai’s thumb sliding down his jaw before a mouth has taken its place.”

Bookmarker's Notes
These days, in place of a story’s gravitational pull, he felt an opposite push: to pay attention to the world around him, this one they had fought for together. To soak up everything it had to give like sunlight through panes of warmed glass. To live with no regrets, continuing forward without looking back. Taking hold of the things that grew surely from the earth. The leaves of green in his hand.
Maybe that was what had brought him to visit Lee Sookyung today. Now that there were no more scenarios, no story that held the answers and no reader who searched for them, all that remained were the survivors. The companions who had stayed within arm’s reach, by his side.
“I think,” Kim Dokja began. He stopped. He shook his head and laughed, a loud sound. “Mother. I think I’m very happy.”

Summary
The man once known as Yingxing finds peace— of a sort.
Or: Blade, the Stellaron Hunters, and what sort of ending can await a man who cannot die. For if this debt cannot be repaid, then we must simply learn how to live with it.

"I cannot make weapons anymore."
He cannot. This is a truth he has accepted. Some things will leave you. Your talents, your love, your ability to sleep without pain. Some things you must simply accept are gone.
"But I have remade myself. If I am my own final creation, then this is still an act of creation. Do you understand?"
