    Summary

    If pressed, Vi would probably say she couldn't really see the point of yet another monument. Graves, at least, were private enough, but a statue of Jinx in the middle of Zaun was hardly the place where she could mourn for her sister in solitude. If Pilties wanted to assuage their guilt or if Zaunites wanted to send a message, she honestly couldn’t care less. If she had her way, she’d have nothing to do with it.

    At that point in life, Vi should already be aware she hardly, if ever, had things go her way.

    Summary

    For now, as the darkness takes hold, he sinks his hand straight into the soft strands of hair atop Till’s head.
    It is a privilege of this space that he can reach him. In this place, they can sit together, an ending to this story that is sun-warmed skin and a patch of grass, stained with nothing but memories and dreams unfulfilled.
    “Ivan?” Till asks.

    Summary

    "I'd give you the world," Ivan whispers, pressing his forehead against Till's. "I'd do anything for you, Till."

    He means it. There was nothing else in the world that could ever change that. 

    All Ivan ever wanted was to love him. And he'd do anything, no matter the cost.

    Summary

    (Title from "King" by The Amazing Devil)

    The Tower is filled with people who will do anything to survive, including turning on their own companions. The higher their team climbs, the more of a rarity their trust for each other becomes, and the more driven the people around them are to tear them apart.

    Including the floor tests themselves.

    Bam let out a sigh, feeling some of the anxiety leak out of him with it. "The test director seemed like she had something against you. That's why I was worried."

    "Plenty of people have something against me, Bam," Khun said with a quicksilver smile. "You'll go grey if you worry about every single one."

    Someone needed to worry about Khun, since Khun certainly wouldn't do enough worrying for himself. Bam was more than willing to be the one to do it, even if he didn't have the words to say so to him. Instead, he latched onto something easier. "Have you found out anything else about the test yet?"

    Bam wasn't surprised when Khun pulled a key fragment from his pocket.

    "The test director sent doppelgangers after us because she thought we wouldn't be able to fight something with the face of a friend."
