    Summary

    The sun finishes its descent, clouds stained deep wine purple and fading rose pink.

    Zagreus breathes out slowly, not quite a sigh but deeper than a usual exhale.

    “That was different from it rising,” he admits. “I don't know if it was entirely your intent, but this has all been quite romantic, Hypnos. A handcrafted shore? A day of fishing? The sunset? Aphrodite would be impressed, if not worried you're going to put her out of a job.”

    “I don't need to impress her,” Hypnos says dismissively, “just you.”

     

    (Technically an epilogue to my other work, Sleep Schism, but also absolutely can be read as a standalone. In fact, I encourage it; Schism is rather long, but this is probably the perfect little fix most people are looking for- much more bite sized.)
