    Summary

    Sensory overload, in a more modern sense, happens in her mainframe once every few checkups.

    It wasn’t important then, but it sure as hell was important now. With no creator around and no way to fix herself manually, Cecilia was running out of options. Fast.

    So, she sits on the floor of her room, reveling in the cold of her hardwood floor, and decides that this is a problem for future Cecilia.

    Her key stops and she falls asleep.

    Cecilia has an issue with her sensory receptacle, and Raora wants to help out.

    It becomes more then either of them expect.

    Summary

    “You are too good for me,” Clorinde says, eyes lowered.

    Navia laughs, sudden and bitter. “No. I am not good. I am keeping you alive so you can feel the guilt of what you have done, every day and every night. If you want to repay me for what you have done, live on and carry that guilt. I hope it weighs heavy on you.”

    (Or: What happened during the three years Clorinde and Navia were on bad terms.)

    Summary

    “Am I dead?” Jingliu gasps.

    “No.” Ruan Mei pries Jingliu’s mouth open, holding the tongue down with her thumb. “You are so delightfully alive. And now I have the pleasure of putting you back together.”

    (Or: Jingliu becomes Ruan Mei’s test subject.)

    Summary

    Arlecchino, just like many of us, feels a little bit bad for bullying Furina for being a failgirl. A reconciliation cake is necessary, and then a lot of kissing.

    And then it becomes a discussion about the boundaries of being human or being a god. I got a little carried away.

    Summary

    “I meant what I said,” Kafka replies casually. “Not everything is about you. I could just be here to get my brunch, minding my own business."

    “You really expect me to believe that?” Himeko says hotly. “How awfully convenient that you were sitting outside the one restaurant where I was on my first date in months.”

    Kafka shrugs. “Coincidences can be so funny when they want to be, can’t they?”

    Or, Himeko tries to move on from a volatile relationship by going on dates again. Kafka is never more than a few steps behind.
