    Summary

    Hornet had managed to free herself from that gilded cage by mere chance the first time—When she had been dragged to Pharloom. But fate has its claws on her. And not even halfway through her ascent to Pharloom's crest—she found herself recaptured due to her own ungainly decision to leave herself vulnerable, even if it was only for a moment.

    — Now she finds herself completely vulnerable once more to the looming Monarch.

    Summary

    There is a Ginkgo Biloba tree planted at the beginning of the street in which he lives.

    In the spring, it begins to sprout...its small, soft leaves grow and increase in density and color when the heat increases until it reaches the peak of its activity in the summer. Then comes the fall, and it turns into a beautiful, luminous golden painting, captivating him with its beauty every time he sneaks out of his house.

    His eyes can hardly get enough of her, so he continues to look at her until the leaves begin to fall one by one and until the branches become bare and fall into a state of silence with the coming of the cold. With his cheerful outlook and optimistic mind, he cannot help but believe that those empty branches carry a special kind of beauty, that beauty represented by the ability to grow again and rise every time, regardless of the circumstances.

    or

    Jabber's life and crisis.

    Summary

    “Damn, man. Got something on my face or what?” Jabber asked weakly.

    Zanka seemed to perk up at his voice.

    “No,” he said quietly.

    “Yer just really pretty.”

    Jabber’s brain stalled. What.

    “Like yer so pretty, it’s hard to not keep lookin’.” Zanka mumbled, a dopey grin spreading across his face.

    Huh.

    or: All Jabber wanted to do was test out a new toxin. So what if it doesn't have the intended affect? So what if Zanka is alarmingly affectionate and sweet on him. He's not handling it well - but it doesn't hurt to keep experimenting...right?

    or: Repressed Jabber who can't handle someone being sweet with him, but lowkey gets addicted to the feeling anyways.

    Summary

    The Cleaner boy should have died.

    Instead, he got saved by a whim. There was nothing good to get out of this: the boy woke up sightless, nameless, and powerless. The only strength left in him was the unyielding grip he had onto that debilitated stick.

    He should have died, yet they fed him lies. Words that nourished what they never thought would become the first step to chaos. The promise of a downfall, though they were not certain for who.
