    Summary

    Phainon is twenty-nine years old, possessing a degree that does nothing but sit in display, and working odd jobs. Oh, and also close to losing his home thanks to Aedes Elysiae’s delightful housing costs.

    An opportunity comes in the form of a Jadeslist posting made by concerned parents seeking a ‘date’ for their son, Mydeimos, who has been suffering the curse of being single for all twenty-one years of his life. The pay? Nymphbook Air and twenty-five thousand Balance Coins.

    Phainon might just be the person for the job.

    (or: one sweltering summer, two people who are absolutely not in love, and a play in three acts.)

    Summary

    "Forgive me if I'm being presumptuous, Lord Phainon," Castorice says, all too politely. "But could you not just message him?"

    In the wake of Mydei’s departure from Okhema, Phainon pines, has dreams, gets psychoanalyzed by Hyacine, and loses a duel to his Titan-possessed ex-professor—not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    “Well,” is what Aglaea says at last. “This is certainly… a predicament.”

    Her voice is as unreadable as ever, so it could mean anything from this is manageable to this is a disaster the likes of which the Flame-Chase Journey will never recover from. As things stand, Mydei is more inclined to believe the latter.

    Beside them, Tribbie finally pops up from where she’s been studying their joined hands. “What Snowy said is true!” she proclaims in a voice far too cheerful for their current situation. “He and De are one hundred percent stuck to each other.”

    While out on patrol, Mydei and Phainon get hit with a curse that binds their hands together.

    Summary

    The first thing he feels when he sees his creator is disgust.

    He is a new essence unto the world but he is already imbued with many things -- hands to see, eyes to take flight, wings to wreak doubt. His pulse is one beat off, seven to discord. The core next to his own is a perfect symphony.

    The core next to him -- ha. Vestigial thoughts give way to the taste of something acrid on his new tongue. A twin? A brother? It is not so. Not with the way their maker studies the white-haired boy with such unadulterated affection.
