Summary
There was this day—cold, late March, wind still mean—that stuck in Noelle’s mind like a grain of rice behind the gums.
She’d ducked into the corner store after school. Her mom didn’t like her going there, said the magazines by the register were trash and the cashier had too many piercings. But Noelle wanted a soda. Something sweet, just for her.
Kris and Susie were there already. Neither of them saw her. They were standing by the fridges in the back, heads close together. Susie was laughing at something Kris said. Kris’s hands were in their pockets, a little hunched, but their shoulders relaxed in that way they never were around anyone else.
And it was nothing. It was two people in a corner store. They weren’t touching, weren’t kissing, weren’t anything. But it was everything.
Noelle left without the soda.

Summary
“I should what?” Alhaitham murmurs. Her breath tickles Kaveh’s lips.
“Kiss me,” Kaveh says. It’s loud in the quiet of their kitchen, hot between them. “That will help, won’t it? Kiss me.”
or: Kaveh is frustrated out of her mind.

Summary
Aether lives a completely ordinary life in suburbia near Liyue Harbor, until a beautiful yet scrappy stranger shows up at his door, claiming to be fleeing from his abuser: a corrupt doctor. When the Doctor catches up to the stranger, who calls himself Scaramouche, and sets his sights on the pair, they form a hasty alliance and go on the run together.
Not long after a target is painted on his back and he’s thrust into a way of life he understands nothing about, Aether learns that there is far more to Scaramouche's history than he was willing to share.

Summary
When Kunikuzushi was born, he had shed no tears and his heart was stagnant, unbeating.
In exchange for her son to live, Ei gave to him her gnosis. He became the vessel for her divine tool, but he was too gentle, too weak. The gnosis gave him life, but at a cost.
Centuries passed, isolation and loneliness became a constant in his immortal life. That was until he met a red-eyed samurai who gave him everything he ever wanted.
Or, all that Kunikuzushi wanted was freedom, and Kazuha was willing to promise him that and more.
