    Summary

    When he saw Lan Fan’s name in an elegant hand on fine parchment followed by a string of effusive praise, he felt confident in signing off with a smile. Clearly, she was being put forward for some high commendation, recognition she most richly deserved.

    It wasn’t until the following morning that he realized exactly what he had actually signed.

    Summary

    Her feet take her to the tree. Where Ekko painted his portraits of Vi.

    Vi who lives. Vi who is from some other place and time entirely.

    “What… is this?” Ekko– her Ekko– crosses to the portraits alongside her, wonderment in his eyes. “Is that Vi?”

    --

    A story in three parts: Ekko, Jinx, and the tree.

    Summary

    You still don’t get it, huh, sis? I’m always with you, even when we’re worlds apart.

    She’d never been so right about something—she’s always been with her, on the burning bridge and in the safety of Vander’s basement, in the burning blaze of the factory and in the shadows of her solitary jail cell. Her sister’s been with her every second of every day, in the back of her mind and the pit of her stomach, eating away at every piece of her jagged heart.

    An air-shattering scream rips Vi from her memory; her body reacts before her mind has even processed that it’s Caitlyn’s voice. Her feet thunder into the floor and the door is nothing but splinters in her hand as she barrels through it, flying down the stairs and in the direction of Cait’s study and her scream.

    Sheesh, lady,” an unmistakeable dry cadence catches Vi’s ears and tangles her feet up underneath her. “You trying to wake the dead?”

    Vi crashes into the room in time to see Jinx’s face twist with a smirk, her lips pursing to blow her colorful bangs out of her face.

    “Let ‘em rest, already.”

    Summary

    "I brought you here, for space," Ekko explains when Jinx drags herself out of his lap, stands on shaky legs to get a better look. "Uh, sorry, I just thought the crowd was overwhelming you."

    "Why do you care?" Jinx rasps, her voice scratching against her throat. "Why did you bring me to your space in the first place?"

    "It's what I told you," Ekko says, so gently, more gently than Jinx thinks she's ever deserved. "And I… I've given up on you, before. I don't want to make that mistake again. Okay?"
