Summary
“I can’t stand it when you look at me. It’s unnatural, the same way a puppet was never supposed to play house. Everything about you hurts, but I don’t think I could pick myself up again if you left.”
He could hear Lumine’s breath still, even if it wasn’t the first time they’d been through this.
“And if you left me?”
He just laughed.
“Do I really make you miserable?”
“I don’t know.” He brought his hand to her hair, fingers spread between the strands. In the moonlight, they almost looked silver. “I don’t understand it.”
Or:
Lumine and Wanderer have settled into a domestic routine, but doubt and uncertainty still linger in their relationship.

Summary
“...How long have you been here now?”
Her laughter faded. “Five hundred years, I think. Or four, depending on how you count it.”
Wanderer didn’t seem to be put off by the difference in these numbers. Lumine wasn’t sure how much information the Fatui had gathered on her situation, but his quiet acceptance wasn’t surprising to her.
“You were staring at the stars last night.” He glanced up at the ceiling, his shoulders stiff, as if glancing at an imaginary sky. “Do you miss them?”
It was Lumine’s turn to grow quiet, her good mood drowned in an air of longing for the unobtainable.
“...There’s nothing like it.”
Or:
Lumine and Wanderer are forced to question what it means to exist, and grow closer in the process.

Summary
After Durin was transported inside a book, he realized that it was not about his own tale, but a retelling of a narrative he had never heard before:
The tale of the hero of Simulanka,
The story of his important friend.
It was through witnessing the three acts of Hat Guy's life and talking with the main characters of each chapter did he realize that perhaps a dragon and a puppet are not so different after all.

Summary
She breaks him gently, the way she does everything.
"Don't you think it's time you moved on, Wanderer?" she asks, casually, innocently. "I have no need for you anymore."The Wanderer is shattered by Nahida's sudden rejection. It tears too deeply at old wounds for him to question whether something more is going on. Unexpectedly, it's another Dendro girl who helps get him back on his feet- hopefully in time to realize Nahida needs saving, too.
(aka, wanderer + collei bonding while i put him and nahida through the wringer)

And he wants. He wants so much.Bookmarked by bookworm1221
