Summary
“Wait.” Sethos grabbed Wanderer’s sleeve before the other could get away. “One thing before you go.” He stood, holding onto Wanderer’s forearm for support as he pulled himself upright. When Sethos let his hand linger, neither mentioned it.
“Speak.”
Gathering his courage, Sethos fixed his attention on Wanderer. “I like you,” he said. “And I would like to see you again.”
Wanderer raised an eyebrow. “You will.”
“Romantically,” Sethos clarified.

“You have pretty eyes, 'Father'.”
Kakavasha didn’t touch her, nor did his eyes leave hers. Yet gradually, his awed smile died away and his expression became thoughtful.
“Staring into my eyes is ill-advised, little one,” Arlecchino said softly, all too familiar with this reaction from people who came too close. “I can’t promise you’ll like what you see …”
But Kakavasha, he said: “You look … sad.”

Summary
Every night, without fail, Goro had the same dream: the sight of a city beyond a fence to his left.
Wind turbines turning their wheels slowly in the distance.
A figure with a long yellow scarf at the door that led deeper into the school.
"Maybe our meeting is destiny," the figure said with a smile, but Goro didn't believe in destiny.

Summary
“The Traveller, Neuvillette!” Furina tightened her grip around his forearm, visibly vibrating with excitement. “He’s so well-mannered! He’s even better than The Steambird reported him to be!” she fake-whispered, too excited to keep her voice down properly.
“Yes, mademoiselle. I’m sure.”
“He’s everything that I need! Easy on the eye, flattering and so amusing! We’re keeping him,” Furina informed him.
Neuvillette’s face remained impassive.
“I’m positive that will not be possible, mademoiselle.”

Summary
"The Trailblazer demonstrates a keen inclination for exploration, actively seeking interaction with a diverse range of objects."
The Trailblazer is very much a kinesthetic learner and has to touch to know.
This includes Dan Heng's antlers, especially when Dan Heng only shows them when the two of them are alone together.

Summary
He closed the book, put it back in place carefully. “Once divinity enters your body, it never really leaves.” He got closer to Sethos, and even though he stepped back to give Hat Guy space, he only kept getting closer. “It takes root inside you, and when it’s gone, the roots stay,” Sethos felt the back of his knees hit his bed, and Hat Guy only stopped then, they'd be face to face if Hat Guy wasn't slightly shorter. He put a hand over Sethos’ chest. “They wrap around your organs, the deepest parts of you, and when divinity is ripped from us, its roots stay lodged inside, like a parasite.”
Us. When divinity is ripped from us.
