Summary
Pantalone draws a shaky breath. "I was in your office earlier," he begins, "looking for a copy of your will. You don't have a will. Did you know that?"
Dottore says nothing. Pantalone takes a drag of his cigarette and continues.
"One of your subordinates came in looking for something. He reeked of antiseptic. I had to send him away."
Because he smelled like antiseptic?
"Because he smelled like you."
Alternatively: The funeral proceedings of a man who dared to fly too close to the sun. Forsaken by all, survived by one.

Summary
Zandik huffs, wrinkles around his eyes increasing as they narrow with a dark humour. “Speaking of our titles, are you aware that the comic character of ‘Pantalone’ has quite a few different meanings?”
“Oh?” Feofan taps the tabletop again, staving off his craving for a smoke.
“Often a doddering merchant tied to currency and ego, some scholars trace the name to ancient Enkanomiya, meaning ‘powerful in all things.’” Zandik’s voice trails off into a harsh laugh.
“And you find that…entertaining?”
“I find it ironic,” Zandik says, “because you came to me as a failed experiment and powerless in all things.”
Conversations from years of experiments and business ventures between Dottore and Pantalone across their developing partnership and relationship. From their first encounter as Feofan and Zandik, to their last.

Summary
Sandrone was looking forward to a nice evening out at the theater to enjoy some Snezhnayan opera alone after a long week of hard work, but the Harbingers private box was already occupied that evening by none other than Dottore and Pantalone.
Inspired by Sandrone's new animated short, where she mentions coming across Dottore and Pantalone at the theater.
