Summary
Local family is surprised to discover that military isn't therapy.
A bunch of drabbles about Childe's early years in the Fatui. Little Ajax trying to make sense of the world and the author trying to figure out what's going on in his messed up head. I think he was edgier and more feral post-Abyss (but also more idealistic) and only became his easy-going charming self later in life, and I wanted to explore how that happened.Series

Summary
Without fail, Ratio finds him after every project, at every bar and casino. He drags Aventurine back to his hotel or penthouse, plying him with water and food until Aventurine is almost eating three meals a day.
Each night, Aventurine is lulled to sleep by Ratio’s irritated scolding, and every morning, he wakes to a tall glass of water and hangover pills on his nightstand, with breakfast pre-made and waiting in the fridge.
One night, after Ratio leaves, Aventurine coughs. It must be allergies.
Or:
Aventurine has Hanahaki.

For every hand that tore and bent his parts, there was another that cradled and painstakingly out him back together again.
Rip apart. Repair. Repeat.

Summary
A click sounds from behind Veritas: the safety of the gun no doubt now pointed at him being turned off. “Get away from that thing.”
“That thing?” Veritas spits out the word, anger boiling in his gut.
“The android,” Sunday says. “You’re an intelligent man, learned doctor. Surely you can see it was trying to use you to lower our guard.”
“Him,” Veritas says. “Him. Not it.”
His attacker lets out a hollow laugh. “Him? That there isn’t a person but a Trojan horse. A pretty facade with rotten insides, ready to open our doors to a horde of others of its kind.”
Veritas’ hands tighten into fists at his side. “You know nothing about him.”

Summary
Urban legend has it that a cunning and elusive witch in Penacony that has a miraculous power to make your wildest dreams come true. It is instead a blonde man in a gaudy fur-lined jacket that greets Ratio from a cheap looking foldable poolside chair at an equally tacky casino resort.
“Well, doctor, I’m quite sorry that I don’t live up to the visuals you were expecting, but I assure you my little parlor tricks are real. I can give you everything you want, and— everything you don’t want.”

Summary
Mike Morton thought his job would be easy. Just attend the race, get information about the unnatural anomalies and the Cthulhu technology, then drive home with payment in his pocket. What he did not expect that he will be stuck in a time loop, forced to revisit the same race until someone finally crosses the finish line. If everyone dies or the finish line is crossed by a monster, time resets and they are back at the morning of the race with no memories of the previous loop. The rules seemed to be clear and logical...
However, he wouldn't be Mike Morton if he followed the rules set by someone else.- Language:

Summary
"... Sergeant," he says slowly. For some reason, he isn't as surprised to see Dax here as he thought he would be.
"Private." Dax is impassive as ever.
They regard each other for a few more seconds before Dax turns his gaze to the horizon, lifting something to his lips. A cigarette, Norton realizes as he blows a ring of smoke out into the night air.
"Really makes you wonder why we're here," he says suddenly. "Life will go on without us, whether we win or lose, live or die. Makes you question what the point of living is." He waves his cigarette through the air. "Is it so worth it?"

Summary
“—and it’s—what’s that sound?” Kunikida asks, breaking off to shoot him a puzzled frown.
Dazai barely hears him, a ringing in his ears that he knows has nothing to do with the alarm coming from his phone. It blares with three short, sharp barks then an odd growl, deep and primal sounding. He knows instantly what it means, having picked it specifically for one thing only. The thought of actually having to hear it never really sank into his mind, only putting it there as a precaution.
Now, it chills him to the bone.
“No,” he whispers through numb lips. “He wouldn’t…”
or: Chuuya uses Corruption without Dazai there to stop him.

This is where he meets Childe. Tartaglia. The Harbinger, as Beidou likes to say with distaste. Ajax.
Kazuha doesn’t know all those names yet. He will soon, but at the moment, he only knows Childe as a tall, handsome stranger sitting alone in the crowded Wanmin Restaurant, who’d smiled warmly at Kazuha and asked, “Want to share a table?"
