    Summary

    Seeing Victor’s face haloed by the blinding bright shine of the catastrophic meltdown makes the destruction feel almost beautiful.

    Cardia drinks it all in. Her chest feels so warm being held like this, a gentler heat than horologium’s scorching transformation. She can breathe easily now, but she feels breathless in a whole different way when she remembers the softness of Victor’s lips pressed to her own.

    She’s in love with him. She already knew that, but in this moment, those words come to mind unbidden.

    She’s in love with him.

    And then a pane of glass shatters, startling her out of her reverie.

    “We better get going.” Victor says.

    “Right…”

     


    Or, immediately following the finale of his route, Cardia and Victor make their escape.

    Summary

    [ MAJOR V3 SPOILERS ]

    He glances around and sees Maki and Himiko in their own pods, putting up various degrees of struggle. “What…” Shuuichi croaks, winces.

    “The killing game!” One of the people - a man with dirty yellow hair and a grey suit underneath his coat - smiles with a smile so fake that had it not been for his words, Saihara would’ve punched him. “It wasn’t real.”

    It wasn’t real.

    It wasn’t real.

    Summary

    Told mainly from Gurranq's perspective, the Clergyman witnesses the Tarnished visit him time after time, slowly regaining his own consciousness and memories of time passed with each Deathroot delivered to him from their palms. Though with this awakening comes something else, something less sinister and far more tender.

    Summary

    Its mouth forms a small 'o', a soft noise escaping it. "Oh. We kidnapped you?"

    For several moments, he is at a loss for words. He almost wants to laugh. Such a situation seems utterly beyond the pale. Some figment of a bizarre, fever-induced dream, distant from any known or lived reality. But the fog of his mind and leaden state of his limbs feel far too real to be constrained to any hypnagogic fantasies.

    When his snakes gaze upon the blurry lines of this mongrel's face, there is not an iota of shame to be found. It is as though the severity of their words has entirely failed to occur to them.

    "Kidnapped." He echoes.

    It blinks. "Uh. Yeah."

    Of all the humiliating possibilities—this?

    OR

    An unwise Tarnished attempts to force Messmer the Impaler to assist in opening the gate of divinity, only to end up stranded alongside their companion and a very angry demigod.

    (Or: the worst roadtrip known to man.)

    Summary

    He reached for the knife, wrapping his fingers around the still-stained handle. He exhaled, closing his eyes as he whispered the silent prayer. The blade’s point drove through the fabric, and he felt it meet flesh…
    And he stopped. His heart was racing, his hands shaking as he held the knife to his middle. His entire body froze, rigid, unable to move.
    What am I doing?
