    Summary

    “Can you please stop doing that?” An exasperated groan came from across the room. “I can barely hear my thoughts over your fidgeting.” Pulled abruptly from her thoughts, Alice set her pen down. She must have been bouncing it against her desk again, judging by the lighthearted glare she received. She offered the source of the whine a sheepish smile as she turned her chair towards him.

    “Sorry. I suppose I tuned it out.”

    Orpheus offered a huff, collapsing back in his chair. A stray lock of hair fell across his temple. Alice found his overly-exaggerated frown quite funny. Many would have to look closely to know that the twitch of his crow’s feet only meant he was struggling to keep a poker face. Alice folded her gloved hands in her lap neatly before flicking her glance to the old clock perched above him for the umpteenth time.

    “That’s not to say I’m not equally excited, though. When is she supposed to be here again?” Orpheus squinted out the window in front of his desk, making out shapes through the clouds incessant weeping. He leaned forward, attempting to avoid the glare of the lights behind him to scout out the street.

    Summary

    After being accepted to Oletus University, one of, if not the most prestigious college to exist, Orpheus starts his second year. His new roommate is insufferable but manageable. Will Orpheus manage to take his peers advice to be more patient and better understand his roommate? What happens along the way?

     

    HOLY HIATUS! GUESS WHOSE BACK AND HAS THE NEXT CHAPTER IN THE MAKING. I found writing during school is MUCH more manageable. Also, I think my writing style had drastically improved so I am currently reworking the plot and working on new chapters but I am gonna focus on Kintober for now—after October is up this story is my focus--also thank literally everyone who had read, checked up, and stayed with me during this LONG hiatus... Summer has been busy--I got a job, joined three sports clubs in school and a D&D club too, so my time is limited BUT way more managed and enjoyable.

    Summary

    Aglaea sighs. “You seem to be under the impression that I’m losing out on something by not performing it myself,” she says, quiet. “But why else would I ask you to perform with Phainon, who you’ve never partnered with before? The only two students of the Goldweaver—wouldn’t that be quite the show?”

    Cipher shrugs. “Well, it can’t happen now, so your only choice is to one-up that show and get on the ice yourself.”

    “You’re being too hasty,” Aglaea says. “Besides, Anaxagoras won’t agree to this.”

    “And what makes you so sure of that?”

    Aglaea doesn’t startle, but it’s a near thing.

    “Coach…?” Phainon asks uncertainly.

    “You really haven’t changed one bit,” Anaxa says. “I’ll do it.”

    Six years after their sudden and mysterious fallout, ex-ice dance partners Aglaea and Anaxa are given the chance to take to the ice together again.

    Summary

    A heavenly palace of paradise would be of no status without a rightful ruler to keep its’ subjects in the right mind of heart, and that was precisely Hollow’s entire world. It brought Orpheus no greater pleasure than to see his people dressed in ivories, saturated in carbon and sapphire opals, dancing and thriving amidst diamond streets.

    . ~ . ~
    … Or dragon hunter and Hollow bickering like a married couple, then they fuck because neither of them can communicate their feelings.
