Summary
I am Phainon of Aedes Elysiae.
Before the outside world gets to see him, he makes sure to wash his face, brush his teeth and style his hair. One, two, three layers of clothing so he doesn’t have to see his own skin. A drop of cleansing oil to soften the hands and brighten the face.
A smile.
A tilt to his head and skip in his steps.
Welcome, Phainon of Aedes Elysiae.
or, an Icarus who has flown too close to the sun, and his descent from the top of the sky in a world that isn't quite his

Summary
And as the wave of rage washes over him, fierce and ever-sharp, he catches sight of it: the darkness that has been tearing him away closing all around him, suffocating him. Furious, heartbroken, he tries to scream, and as he does the lines of code choking him begin to glow the dull red of hot metal. He tears at them with his hands, ripping them away; they cling to his body like spiderwebs, growing ever brighter.Phainon is faintly aware of Mydei shouting, but that is happening somewhere else. Here, in the dark, he sees only one thing: a single line of blinking red code that makes his blood freeze solid.
modified boot sequence initiated: irontomb.exe
irontomb shatters the peace of the exotale and phainon resolves to sacrifice himself and end things permanently. mydei and the other heirs have a different outcome in mind.Bookmarked by ocreta

Summary
"It's... I think it's a ritual? Professor Anaxa said it is. He likened it to two water droplets merging into one, but that seems a bit inaccurate."
After all, if two water droplets were to fuse into a bigger droplet the sum of their size, then how would they decouple? Would it even be the exact same two water droplets if they managed to be split? Oh, but Phainon recalled a stranger analogy from Cyrene, "Maybe you can think of it as a really, really, really tight hug."
Mydeimos narrowed his eyes. "What are you spouting?"
"I'm saying that it's hard to explain."
The Month of Weaving brings along a romantic time of celebration; and thus, the topic of fusion surfaces.

Summary
“The full moon draws near…” Anaxa murmurs to himself as he looks up to the star-filled sky. The black cat responds with a meow from the side, getting up from its spot to bump its head against the back of Anaxa’s hand in what seems to be some form of an apology, and the gesture draws out a soft chuckle from the witch. “The preparations are almost complete, either way—something like this won’t be enough to hinder my plans. Unless something catastrophic happens to the potion that’s already done brewing, we will proceed as scheduled.”
“Meow.”
“Yes, Khaos, I’ll be careful, and you should be too. We wouldn’t want any accidents from occurring, would we?”
“Meoooow.”
“Exactly.”
An accident occurs at the peak of Anaxagoras' newest and biggest spell, and he is left with his cat familiar turned into an oversized man. Khaos struggles in his new body.

Summary
“Cipher,” comes Phainon’s muffled voice somewhere to her right. “Ciiipher.”
Fuck. She had hoped that he was sufficiently quelled the last time, but the deliverer boy bounced back quicker than she thought. Though honestly, she should’ve seen this coming.
“Cipher.” There was banging on the wall, now. “This is important, I swear.”
“I’m not doing this again,” she shouts. “I won’t. Not since you dropped that stone bust of the little prince on my floor. I told you not to do it, and you did it anyway and now you won’t even take him back because you’re worried he’ll break even more, and I don’t have a trash can or a hammer or a void to throw it into.”
or: Cipher is trapped between Phainon and Mydei on the 3.7 banner and has to act as the middleman. Someone get her out.
