    Summary

    Wanderer was both a fool and a liar.

    When he coincidentally met this disabled woman who was strangely convinced that he was her son, Wanderer made ten mistakes.
    A lie orchestrated by illusions that will only spare him to a bitter end. After all, the truth would always shine no matter what, leaving him alone with his icy tears.

    And the most painful part was that even when she was gone, he still coveted a mother's touch.

    Summary

    “You–” he says, stepping forwards. His features are picturesque without being delicate, soft without being undefined; his eyes are blue and filled with tears he has not allowed to so much as well against the whites. “Can you see them too?”

    There are no numbers above the murderer’s head, no name. Mona, for the first time in her life, doesn't know when someone is going to die.

    Mona can see when people are fated to die, but tries to ignore it as much as she can. Scaramouche, with the same ability, does the opposite and has taken it upon himself to make sure everyone dies when they're supposed to. Mona falls in with him anyways.

    Summary

    “You only come down here to access your gaming console, correct? Haven’t I told you,” Ei said, her voice becoming sharper, harsher, testier, “that you’re only allowed to ‘play’ whenever you’re on holiday, or when you’ve managed to accomplish something worthwhile?”

    He blinked. His grades have dipped slightly, sure, but he was still maintaining straight A’s and was one of the best students in his class, right? (Was he?)

    “You’re lucky you still live in this house, and that you still have some of the privileges I’ve let you have,” Ei snarled. “But perhaps I’ve let you have too much freedom.”

    Kunikuzushi loves his mother. After all, what son wouldn’t? But sometimes the relationships that are the closest to your heart hurt you the most.

    (I read a fic on this site and was inspired to make a fanmade prequel for that fic. It’s a form of fanfiction inception, if you will.)

    Summary

    We always knew what the King was thinking.

    From the first moment our terracotta skin was imbued with the magic of Mezalea, we felt our ruler's presence without stop. Though the kings and queens that ruled would pass, their legacy survived in us, the last tenant of their touch. Their presence was featherlight on us yet bore down without pause. It was soft and kind, a guiding voice that told us what to do.

    Whatever instruction we were given, we performed without hesitance or complaint. We didn’t have a will of our own, so completing tasks was our primary function. In that cess of our minds, the King's voice would rumble through us, giving us instruction. Whatever he said we would do, for his will was the most important thing in the world to us.

    Serving our King was our sole purpose, and we would never stray from that path.

    Godhood is not granted without sacrifice. The clones care as best they can.
