As a lonely teenager, Verso paints himself a friend on a small, hidden canvas: Gustave, a confidant who quietly grows into something more. After the fracture, the other Verso finds Gustave again in Lumière. It should be impossible - and keeping his distance might be.

Summary
A primal was summoned with an immense amount of chroma and could temper anyone close by. It was like a magical parasite, worming its way into one’s mind until anyone would turn into its thrall, serving it unapologetically. He had read recovered letters of how friends had turned against friends, parents had killed their children, and throats had been cut by their own bodies.
The worst part was that they couldn’t even leave the primal alone.
Lumière was running out of supplies and they had to make the continent livable.
And that just so included slaying an immortal primal that could temper them if they dared to get too close.
God, Gustave needed a drink.

Summary
It has been 8 months since Maelle kicked her family out of the Canvas and chose to stay. Gustave's friends and family have all embraced their second chance at life but Gustave is struggling to accept their new reality. He has thrown himself into his work to keep his mind off of everything but now he has been tasked with collecting study samples from the Continent. No one else is able or willing to join him on the trip and travelling alone is unsafe. Luckily, Maelle convinced Verso to go so Gustave could have someone to watch his back. Gustave and Verso have never really spoken and barely know each other, but a whole month on the Continent together is enough time to change that.
5 times Gustave had to be on corpse management duty + 1 time Verso had to instead

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)
