    Summary

    “Why do you think you’re from a different world?” Mydei asks.

    “Last night, I went to sleep in the same bedroom as you in the house we've had since last year,” Phainon says. “This morning, I woke up in an unfamiliar room that looks like it was built a thousand years ago. You weren’t in bed with me, there wasn’t a wedding band on my finger, and”—his eyes flicker to Mydei’s chest, a fiery blush blooming on his face—“you’re half-naked.”

    “We sleep together?” Mydei asks, surprised.

    Phainon deadpans.

    “We’re married.”

    (Phainon finds himself in a modern Amphoreus where he and Mydei have been married for years. Mydei finds himself with a Phainon that claims the two of them are married.)

    Summary

    “Lady Alia told me something interesting, actually. Turns out she’s not a fae at all.”

    “Indeed? How curious,” Flins hums. There is tension in his face, but his attention is still focused on Illuga.

    “She made fun of me about it. She said that I, of all people, should be able to spot a fae, given that…” Illuga trails off and licks his lips; Flins tracks the flash of tongue. It’s now or never. “Given that I know one so well. Are you a fae, Sir Flins?”

    A certain revelation over Flins’s ancestry causes Illuga to try take the next step in their relationship — while breaking every rule for interacting with the fae in the process.

    Summary

    "She touched his arm,” Lohen said, flat.
    Mika made a small, strangled sound.
    Kaeya leaned forward with the enthusiasm of a tavern bard sensing free material. "Oh, she did."
    "Kaeya," Mika lamented.
    "What? She did.”
    “Kaeya.”
    “I'm just reporting. Accurately, if I might add."
    "Kaeya, please."
    "It's called journalism, Mika."

    For several days, Varka has been acting suspiciously. He keeps meeting a Fontainian merchant, disappearing during work hours, and refusing to explain himself.
    Naturally, Lohen responds with a perfectly reasonable amount of stalking, jealousy, and crime.

    Summary

    Kaveh can't keep doing this.
    "Why," he asks, making sure his glare is particularly scathing, "did you order your soup, and I quote, 'without the broth?'"
    "It's how I eat it while reading," Alhaitham replies, which — is frankly an insane thing to say. Like, generally.

    Or: Alhaitham orders increasingly ridiculous deliveries... and Kaveh, his Doridasher, is collateral damage.
