    Summary

    That’s just the thing, isn’t it? Wei Ying feels nothing. He doesn’t feel anything, and this emptiness should scare him. He knows he should be scared. He wants to be scared. He isn’t. Fear itself is never scary; fear is just a response. It means that your body wants you alive. It’s the absence of terror that scares him.

    Summary

    “You think I'd keep bringing him to the tavern to watch me get drunk? Did you not notice how much he stares at you? He even asked me the moment you first met if you were his dad.”

    “I didn't want to make assumptions.”

    “I'm just saying, the boy is yours and you're always welcome to be a part of his life if you want to.”

    Summary

    A person is made of three parts: a heart, a body, and a soul. At the end of everything, the heart and body will perish. But the soul persists.

    He’s seen the end of the world more than once now. Individual worlds. His own personal world. The world, even. So it comes as a bit of a shock to find that all of existence has come to an end. Actually, for real this time. No last ditch heroic efforts. No do-overs.

    The greater surprise is the fact that he’s not alone.

    Or: When existence ends, Sora finds that only his soul remains to travel through an abstract mosaic of grief and thought. And as it turns out, while Roxas had formed his own heart and was given his own body, the two of them continued to share one soul.

    Summary

    “Your death after noon,” Diluc announced, setting the glass down in front of Kaeya. Kaeya hadn’t even realised Diluc had made it. Maybe he was minutely blacking out at moments. Kaeya didn’t mind, so long as no one noticed.

    “Thanks, love,” Kaeya said, wrapping one hand around the glass, still playing the sultry angle — passing off his deathbed voice for a bedroom one instead. Plus, the more he disgusted Diluc, the more likely he’d be left to die in peace.


    Kaeya had always fought like he was ready to face death. Perhaps part of him even welcomed it. One day, that reckless abandon caught up to him, leaving him heavily wounded. Seeking comfort but not care, Kaeya staggered to the Angel’s Share for one last drink. He didn't deserve anything in these final, slow and agonising moments before bleeding out, but he could be selfish one last time, couldn't he?

    Kaeya was so glad his estranged brother was tending the bar tonight.
