    Summary

    love was.. difficult.

    xiao was a creature used to solitude. his karmic debt didn’t allow him to mingle with humanity, and he’d keep it that way, lest he hurt someone unintentionally. he was used to it. the acidic burn of his karma, the weight on his chest that pressed too hard, too deep, and left him unable to breathe. there weren’t many things that brought him respite from his own nature.

    and then there was you.

    Summary

    recovery isn’t linear or easy. it isn’t a million things, and it’s about a million other things. you know this, most of hero society knows this and sort of accepts this. doctors and physical therapists and psychiatrists know this, and preach it. you know it too.

    Summary

    “My dear brother,” Kayla begins, “my lovely, kind-hearted, smiley, morning person brother, is neurotic.”

    Nico waits. This is, apparently, the end of her sentence, as she does not continue.

    “I am aware,” he says slowly. “I have been present during every rant about Hollywood inaccuracies about medical sciences.”

    She nods sagely. “This is true. You have. You are, however, by virtue of his cripplingly low self esteem and fervent belief that his mere existence is a Literal Actual Curse, spared from much of his most…colourful…contingencies.”

    “Contingencies,” Nico repeats.

    Kayla nods again.

    “Yes. You see, dear future brother-in-law —”

    “Cease,” Nico snaps, reddening.

    “— our lovely William, also known as your Special Guy, according to Nico With Severe Blood Loss.” continues Kayla, not ceasing, “is under the impression that you, like all people, have a Limit.”
