    Summary

    “These…” she blinked slowly. “Aren’t so bad?”

    Phainon stared at her with dead eyes.

    “They’re not!” Cyrene assured him. “It could always be worse, you know. Peri in my class just has a ‘hi’ on her arm. Imagine trying to find a soulmate when their first words to you are ‘hi’? Yours are very…” she squinted at Phainon’s neck. “Original.”

    ’Original?’” Phainon repeated, bafflement clear in his voice. “There’s nothing original about them. My soulmate just hates me.”

    Summary

    After Amphoreus finally becomes a real world, Phainon hides himself away in a collapsing building outside Okhema, his body failing under infection and exhaustion while his mind refuses to stop replaying every death he has caused across thirty-three million cycles. He expects to be forgotten in silence—but Mydei finds him, alive and breaking, and refuses to let him disappear.

    or Phainon tries to die quietly after the loops end, but Mydei refuses to let him become another casualty of them.

    Summary

    "So... I dare you—no, I double dare you to tell me what it is you want most right now. Anything at all; don't be shy!"

    Something he wanted?

    It was a fruitless question. No matter how hard Khaslana searched within, he couldn't find a single wish spawned from his own desire. However, as an old friend, the swordsman supposed... he could humour her with a simple confession.

    "I... just want to rest."

    After everything, Khaslana chooses to 'live' in solitude, but the Chrysos Heirs now harbour a different wish for him to fulfil.

    Having now outlived his purpose, he decides to grant them their newest prayers, eventually.

    Summary

    “When death finally takes me away from you…” Mydei’s voice broke the quiet, and Phainon froze, the smile vanishing. 

    “Mydei—” 

    But Mydei only whispered, “Listen.” 

    It was not a command, but a plea, and Phainon fell silent. Mydei lifted their joined hands, pressing his lips against the back of Phainon’s knuckles slowly, reverently, like prayer, like worship. His eyes never left Phainon’s face, memorizing every line, every shadow, every beloved detail as though carving it into his soul. 

    Between each word, he kissed Phainon’s knuckles again and again, desperate to convey what fate denied them—that he wanted this devotion in their lifetime too, but prophecy had already stolen that chance. “When death finally takes me away from you,” he repeated softly, lips brushing skin, “I will hold you with my other hand… and promise to find you in that new tomorrow you will deliver us to.”

    Summary

    “Fine, I’ll come to the stupid concert,” he said at last, with a barely contained groan.

    “Not like that, you aren’t!”

    “Like what?” Phainon asked, genuinely confused. He looked down at himself. He was wearing his favorite purple hoodie and yellow sweats. He just needed to swap out the bottom for some jeans.

    “Dressed like you’re gonna rep the fucking Lakers at a rock concert,” Cipher said, making a noise of pure distress.

    Phainon is dragged against his will to a concert. He bags a rockstar boyfriend by being an absolute nerd.
