Summary
Recalcitrant at the best of times, once Estinien deems himself recovered enough, he insists on tending to the wounds left over from Nidhogg's eyes himself. Stubborn in the face of even the exasperation of his assigned hospitalier, Estinien nevertheless succumbs to Aymeric's insistence when the Lord Commander makes time to tend to Estinien's scars himself.

Summary
The young Aymeric de Borel is not known to be inclined toward vanity, but his goals--both professional and personal--necessitate that he keep up with the fashionable trends among Ishgard's nobility. In a bid to be an early adopter of the resurgent fad of ear piercing, he tracks down a semi-reputable professional and drags Estinien along for the event.

Summary
While Estinien is forced to linger in the Western Forelands, and with the rumors of his status as an adopted bastard still Ishgard's worst kept secret, Aymeric becomes an orphan. Too late to attend either funeral, Estinien is left to deal with the aftermath at the wake. One might think that, having lost his own family, he would have some understanding of what to say, but the world is rarely ever so kind.

Summary
In a world like Etheirys but not quite, the Final Days have come and gone, leaving the entire population with a unique quandary as they realize their world has been left in a peaceable sort of stasis. Children have grown up, but the old have cease to age. People have stopped dying, and people have stopped being born.
With true conflict a thing of the past and time a resource everyone has in spades, the world has settled into a state of eternal play. Within this world, Aymeric and Estinien, renown across the star for the way they dance around each other even now, are forced into proximity again by their simultaneous winning of the Xelphatol 500.

Summary
When Estinien returns to Borel Manor for his short visits, he tends to bring strange cookbooks of eclectic recipes for he and Aymeric to try together, a way to share the tastes he's acquired in far off lands.
A pot of curry simmers on the stove, the orchestrion plays softly in the background, and with Estinien's normally prickly demeanor softened with good wine and the promise of food, Aymeric coaxes his dearest companion to follow in his footsteps for a few tender moments.
