Summary
It’s a Sunday afternoon and Akechi Goro is in his shitty apartment, sprawled on his couch, when he makes a horrible discovery.
A re-run of Featherman is playing on his thrifted TV. Mid ad-break, he turns on his phone and sees a very familiar app, sitting there on the home page innocently as though last time it had appeared out of nowhere it hadn’t ruined Goro’s life. He had been sipping on disgusting instant coffee, which he spills all over his pants from the shock.
Not because he’s clumsy, obviously.
His right eye twitches. He opens the app, and reads the words: Amamiya Ren, Tokyo, Shrine.

Summary
Those who were dead are now alive. Those who were grieving are now smiling.
Akechi was missing, presumed dead, is now back. Akechi, his old rival, is now... different.
But, is he? It's not like Ren ever got to know the 'real' him.
✲✲✲
Two Akechis. One Ren. Several thieves. A Maruki. Zero understanding of the truth.

Summary
In battle, a Kremnoan was expected to dominate by force of strength and will, to leave no survivors in service of Nikador’s insatiable hunger. It isn’t that there is no word for romance in the Kremnoan language—it is that the word for to love is the same as the one for to fight for.
Explaining this to Phainon, in far fewer words, produces…interesting results.
after some conversation and a little negotiation, Phainon and Mydei decide to try something new.

Summary
There’s a thrumming coming from somewhere — loud, deafeningly loud, but Ren is the only one who can hear it. It takes him a moment to realize that it’s him: his pulse, his heart, his own rising understanding that something is wrong. “Akechi,” he says, strangled and smiling, “this really doesn’t matter.”
But Akechi is already reeling back, already buttoning his shirt, already gone — again.
“Ren,” he mimics, eyes flashing, “it really does.”
Ren lets details of his first time slip. Akechi doesn't think it's as harmless as he does.

Summary
Turkey lived with Greece and Egypt as part of his Empire for the majority of his life, until his Empire went downhill and he lost them in a blaze of anger, hatred, and unforgivable mistakes.
Time heals all wounds, people say, but they don't often talk about the scars left behind and how you work around them if you go back... If you find you want to go back.
