Summary
While most people believe objects are incapable of thought or feeling, Rudo lives surrounded by something entirely different, because he can hear them all. Many objects have voices, and many have sounds, as every object carries a presence that remains, something that remembers what it once was and continues to exist, quietly seeking recognition.
Or, Rudo can listen and talk to objects.

Summary
I don't want to push Sphereite culture on them, Rudo thought. He didn't want to spread that kind of poison on the people who had been so kind to him.
So it stayed locked up in the cage he made for it, where everything he brought with him from the Sphere could only ever eat away at his own insides.
No matter how much it hurt.
Or: This story is about the flowers. It was also never about the flowers.

Summary
So… Enjin knows himself, and he knows he is not someone suited to dealing with children. Piercing cries, overwhelming tantrums, and the strange language they seem to speak all confuse him, wear down his patience, and -at worst- make him feel useless and out of place. And yet, through a series of unforeseen incidents, he ends up becoming the babysitter of the youngest member of the Akuta team.
OR; Rudo turns into a four-year-old child.

Summary
It's funny.
How primal grief feels.
It’s a universal emotion, humans feel it, animals feel it, the very earth feels it. It shakes everything around you and leaves you feeling as if everything is crumbling, yet the world dares to keep spinning.
--
Rudo is finally hit by the grief of Regto's passing after the constant struggle he's faced ever since falling to the ground. At least he has people that will catch him this time.

Summary
‘Alright, let’s just take some deep breaths, okay? In and out, slowly.’
‘Get lost – NO!’ Rudo roared again, eyes flashing in a terrorised, overwrought outrage. Then he ripped the table lamp from his bedside locker and angled it threateningly above his head.
His voice hobbled over as he spoke, caught in a thick hook of swamped tears and mucus. ‘You’re NOT –’ he sniffed, hard; it sounded burnt-out and hurt. ‘–You’re not doing the breathing thing! That’s Regto’s thing!’
Enjin bowed his face and inhaled sharply.
Then he took a good, long look at him. ‘So that’s what this is about.’
Or,
Five times Enjin went to help Rudo - and the one time Rudo went to him.
