    Summary

    In Lumière, soul bonds are not gifts - they are obligations.

    Verso Dessendre has spent years perfecting the art of staying untouched. Once a prodigy, now a soldier, he's learned that wanting anything is dangerous. His hands are scarred. His reputation is carefully constructed. And he has no intention of letting anyone close enough to see what lies beneath.

    Gustave Virlogeux is the Academy's most reliable engineer - the one who fixes what the system breaks, who never asks for anything for himself. His prosthetic arm glows with borrowed Chroma. He's useful. Essential. Alone.

    When destiny pairs them together, neither is prepared for what their connection will cost—or what it might save. As Lumière's bond ceremony approaches, they—along with Verso's sister Alicia and Gustave's ward Maelle - will discover that the system they trusted might be more fragile than anyone realized.

    A story about two people learning that sometimes the most broken things fit together in ways nothing whole ever could.

    Summary

    The first words your soulmate says to you appear on your skin. And they only appear once—everybody knows that.
    So when Verso Dessendre walks into Gustave's garage with a vintage car that needs restoring and eyes that hold eight years of secrets, and Gustave's wrist burns with new words - eight years after his soulmate abandoned him - he knows something is wrong.
    Apparently, the universe isn't done with them yet.
    This is a story about sacrifice and second chances, about the lies we tell to protect the ones we love, and about fighting for happiness even when the world says you don't deserve it.
    Some love stories get a second chance. Some get second words.

    Summary

    In order to bring Gustave back as himself, whole, Maelle had to infuse him with Pure Chroma, something wielded only by Painters.

    This Pure Chroma responds to intent, just like it does for Painters.

    As life begins again - Gustave does not hesitate to support all of his friends and family - but now that support comes with a cost that he might no longer afford to be able to pay.

    (Alternative Title: 5 Times Gustave Used His Pure Chroma to Help Others, and the One Time Someone Used It to Help Him)
