    Summary

    “Oh, gods forbid they respond positively to you doing a good thing,” Neve deadpans. She squeezes him a little again. “That’s sort of how it works, Astarion.”

    She can’t even see it. Believes the best of them all so earnestly, himself included, that she can’t see how it would all fall away without her at the center. It’s enough to make a person feel like they might actually deserve it.

    “And by it, you mean…?” he asks instead.

    Her huffed laugh of disbelief ruffles the hair at his neck. “Friendship, you idiot,” she answers. “And the general acquisition thereof.”

    Astarion cuts a sideways look at her as best he can with her still nestled so close. “And is that what we are? Friends?”

    He’d meant it to tease her, and yet finds that the silence before her answer twists his stomach. Because…he doesn’t actually know, either.

    “Yes, Astarion,” Neve says gently, after a moment. “I think we’re very good friends.”

    -

    Neve and Astarion, continued. She's not a victim. Not a target. Not just one night it's better to forget. But then...whatever in the world could she be?

    Summary

    Jue Viole Grace is a backwater country noble with no prospects and Aguero Agnis Khun is a disgraced noble with no future. Any union between the two of them is guaranteed to amount to nothing, which is exactly what their guardians are hoping for.

    But the two of them (and possibly even fate itself) might have other plans.

    Summary

    “Then show me.” Bam's voice is featherlight as he shifts closer in his seat on Khun’s lap, suddenly reminding him of the position they were in.

    “Show me how much you love me.”

    Bam says yes and Khun hears future goodbyes like he's remembering them, sees earrings he's too afraid of losing to wear.

    Summary

    At the upper levels of the tower, past the 100th floor, the tests suddenly increase in difficulty again. Unlike the 20th floor, where Regulars often rest for years, too tired to push on, this barrier is called the 'glass ceiling' of the tower.

    The reason for this is nepotism, (or favoritism, or politics, different people call it different things). In any case, starting from the 100th floor, there are certain floors owned by the 10 Great Families. And naturally, being a part of one of these families might give you a big advantage.

    Or, for their enemies, these tests become battlegrounds with their lives on the line.

    The 100th floor belongs to Arie Hon

    The 111th floor belongs to Khun Eduan
