    Summary

    After returning from the Realm of Darkness, it's becoming very clear that Ventus probably shouldn't have gone there.
    Not only is he struggling with his lost memories, his internal darkness, but also his past and his true identity, but now he's threatened by two of the Guardians' old enemies who now appear to have several unfathomably powerful Keyblade wielders under command.
    Regardless, Ven's friends will do anything to keep him safe.

    -----------------

    Finally, after being separated from decades - centuries, scattered all across space and time, the Union Leaders are back. Hearts restored, memories recovered, and Keyblades in hand, there's only one thing moving.
    One leader who is still amnesiac, still missing his real Keyblade, and is still lost. And also happens to be stuck with the single most arrogant, block-headed key slingers the Union Leaders have ever seen.
    Doesn't matter if they're the "good guys" here.
    Nothing will keep Lauriam, Ephemer, Skuld, and Brain from getting back their friend

    (OR: Ventus is getting his memories back, and his old friends want their little brother back, but that puts them at odds with the Guardians of Light.)

    Summary

    In the midst of the Second Keyblade War, an unforeseen incident ends up separating one Guardian and one Seeker of Darkness from both their respective teams.
    Now, mysteriously freed from Xehanort's possession, confused (plus his stupid memories deciding to act up at the most inconvenient time), Marluxia takes it upon himself to care for the injured young boy stranded with him and to return him to his friends, even if he doesn't understand what compels him now.
    Ven doesn't have the faintest clue why this man suddenly switched from attempting to murder him to now being the only reason he's alive (or why he seems so familiar), but it's not like he has a choice right now. At least, despite how unimaginable it seems, this man doesn't appear to like Xehanort any more than he does.
    Both stranded, both struggling with their memories, the unlikely trucies cautiously begin to bond as they make the most of their situation. But when the reality of the war they had momentarily escaped returns with a vengeance, will anything change from how it was foretold to end ages ago?

    Summary

    "Acting Grand Master," Lawrence says, "we have another noise complaint."

    Kaeya leans against the doorway, watching as Lawrence places at report atop Jean's desk. Sighing, Jean tiredly rubs at her brow, before offering a curt nod.

    "Thank you," she says. "I will deal with the complaint shortly."

    Pushing off the doorway, Kaeya saunters past Lawrence, picking the report up, and casually flipping through it. Jean shoots him a stern look, but does not tell him to put it back down.

    "It's from one of the sisters," Kaeya observes, and reads aloud. "Perpetrator scaled statue outside church while drunk and sang loudly for three hours."

    Lawrence lets out a delicate cough.

     

    As Weinlesefest draws near, Kaeya notices a new mystery in the city of wind and wine — Jean and Diluc have been oddly permissive with Venti since the Stormterror Incident. Mischievously determined to get to the bottom of this, Kaeya soon makes a discovery that threatens to upend everything he knows. In the process, he must reconcile what it means to be Khaenri'ahn, and to love a city that belongs to a god.

    Summary

    "Mr. Zhongli," Chef Mao says suddenly, "is a little strange, don't you think?"

    Surprised by the sudden and completely unsolicited comment, Xiangling looks up from her wok, tracing her father's eye to said Mr. Zhongli, leaning over an antique vase at one of the roadside stores. In her time at Wanmin Restaurant, however, she has certainly seen her fair share of strange customers, so after a moment, she just turns back to her frying, flipping the xianbing in the wok over one by one.

    "Why do you say that?" she asks, reaching across the counter for the cooking oil.

    "Dearest daughter," Chef Mao says then, "he is lecturing the seller on the origins of his own vase."

    Liyue Harbor is hive full of incorrigible gossips. Xiangling navigates the rumor mill, goes ingredient hunting with Zhongli, and in the process, finds out that Zhongli is very, very bad at pretending to be human.

    Summary

    Yanqing does not fear death.

    Such a fact is a perfect trait for a Cloud Knight, especially as the Lieutenant. To protect the people, to protect the General—one such as he should face the end with his head held high. That is the oath and duty he took up on his first day.

    Yanqing does not fear death.

    Such a fact is a terrible trait for a child, especially the one Jing Yuan raised. He has never been heavyhanded in training him—never held him back too much and never let him stray too far. The days he watched the boy chase small birds and play with toy swords were still fresh in his memories.

    Yanqing does fear death.

    But his fear of disappointing the General runs deeper. It goes further than any force that could release him from the mortal coil. No weapon cuts deeper than his father’s gold eyes turning away from him in shame.

    Honor, devotion, gratitude—courage will kill him, Jing Yuan realizes.
