Summary
What would he even ask? ‘What do I do?’, what are we?’, how do I tell apart a friend from lover?’, the options sit heavily on his shoulders, before uncertainty can further settle in, he hears the words tripping out of his mouth.
“Kinosaki...” every part of his body screams that this is a grave mistake, and he doesn’t even need to look at his hands to know that they are shaking. He craves the answer, and yet, he’s afraid of the question. He feels the weight of Kinosaki’s eyes on him. So, he folds to his own fear and asks the first thought that comes across his mind, “What do you think of Beppu?”Or, Gero Hikaru asks Kinosaki Mei a question and fears what it means for their relationship.

Summary
“It makes me feel like a princess,” she admitted. “Just like in the stories. A fair maiden locked away in a far-off turret. Knowing that any strapping young knights wanting to court me will have to earn their way past the fierce, jealous dragon who guards my door. It’s quite comforting.”
Rhaenyra grinned sleepily. “A princess in a what now?”
Incredible. She could actually hear Alicent rolling her eyes. “In a high tower, yes, you’re very clever, Rhaenyra. Gods, why do I talk to you.”

Summary
Eva takes a breath that shudders its way into her bones.
“I was just thinking,” she says unsteadily, “that seeing you age is the only way to know what Neil might have looked like if he’d had the chance to grow old.”
Quincy stares at her, jaw working.
A conversation with Quincy on Neil's birthday prompts Eva to consider moving forward.

Summary
"You mean…" The wicked grin of insurance fraud stretched Wolfwood's lips around the cigarette. "There might be a way for you to finally get some well-deserved cash back outta those Bernadelli bastards, and for me to resolve my current predicament without havin' to sell a kidney or two?"
"Entirely mutually beneficial." Vash smiled angelically. "And really, I think Bernardelli will still turn a profit on me. It's very pricey insurance."
"Ya should really cancel that package."
"And make Milly cry!?" Vash gasped dramatically. "Oh, you monster."Or: a story about contracts (of insurance and of marriage), about jokes (that are perhaps not funny at all), and - of course - about love.
