    Summary

    ”Oh, is that ugly Takumi I spy?” came floating to his ears from the cage in the center of the yard, and yeah, of course nothing about this place was going to calm Takumi’s nerves.

    ”Sure is,” Takumi bit back, learning by now that Eito does this just to get a rise out of him. He’s better off if he doesn’t make a fuss. Takumi made his way over to the cage, examining his target. Eito looked relatively relaxed; he was on his side, laying propped up on one arm with a book laid out beside him. How he didn’t feel sore from reclining on the hard cage floor, Takumi would never understand. “I brought you breakfast.”

    Summary

    Takumi will admit, he did not think this through.

    After returning from the past, he is faced with a crucial decision, to kill or to spare. He chooses the third option, to play it so that Eito never knows that he can time travel. This, however, means that he has to keep a close eye to stop him from hurting anyone again, and well, what’s the harm in having a little fun along the way?

    It escalates.

    Summary

    “What have you been doing since graduation? You didn’t continue your studies.”

    No, I didn't, Phainon thinks distantly. I wasted every scrap of promise you thought I had.

    Outwardly, his professional mask holds through sheer habit. He smiles and answers lightly, “I’ve been keeping busy, Professor.”

    Anaxa hires someone to accompany him to academic events while corporate interests threaten his controversial research – and his life. That someone turns out to be Phainon, once his most promising student.

    What Anaxa doesn't know: the service is an escort agency. What Phainon doesn't know: how to stop falling for him all over again.

    Anaxa thinks this is just a job. Phainon is trying very hard to keep it that way. But keeping Anaxa safe is one thing – keeping his distance is another.

    Summary

    “That’s not childish.” If he had a heart, he’s sure it would be pounding. “That’s the definition of peace. The soul’s greatest desire. It is never too far out of reach.”

    “Isn’t it?” Phainon whispers, but his brow gentles, posture relaxing into the chilly night's air. “And what is it you desire, Anaxa?”

    A touch, as the baby dromas snuggles close, and for one fleeting moment, an image crosses his thoughts. Watching the sunset, satisfied from a day fulfilled by the gentle touch of companionship and a homecooked meal. They'd have a home, together.

    “Peace,” Anaxa says eventually. “I, too, desire peace.”

    Anaxagoras has fifteen days left to alter the course of Amphoreus' history for good, and he's resigned every hour to it wreathed in the slow and agonizing deterioration of a body that is already dead. The plan was to spend the brunt of it alone, in the solitary halls of his quarters.

    The plan did not include Phainon, who shows up at his door in the middle of the night, asking for a place to stay.

    or: Anaxa is dying. Phainon disagrees.
