Summary
Phainon's expression doesn't change, still blank and almost as if he's looking through Mydei. He doesn't like it.
"Are you alright?" He asks, kicking at his thigh lightly.
Phainon hums, gaze still thousands of years away before it refocuses sharply on Mydei. "When am I not?" He asks, lips tilting in what's shaping up to be a smirk.
"Do you want me to answer that?" Mydei asks drily, crossing his arms.

Summary
Mydei’s head whirls up to face him the very second Phainon walks into the carnage that marks the Titan of Strife’s descent. The man stands among the dead carcasses of beasts, but Phainon cannot force himself to tear his gaze away to survey the situation beyond that when their eyes meet.
They have the exact same shape and spark behind them, the slitted pupils. But the color. They are much more vibrant than they used to be, almost liquid gold like the blood running through their veins. Captivating.
“Welcome to Amphoreus, Nikador,” Phainon greets as smoothly as he can, his steps barely faltering as he walks closer. He imagined himself saying those words a million times over, and that’s the only reason his voice doesn’t crack.
Mydei studies him for a heartbeat. And then, a wild fanged grin spreads across his face, allowing Phainon to finally break his gaze away and take his appearance in.
or; Phainon ushers in the new dawn of Era Nova. All that's left is the lengthy wait for that one person to follow him into it

Summary
“Glad to see you back among the living,” Phainon says through a yawn, clearly having spent the night in the uncomfortable chair in the infirmary by Mydei’s side. Like he often does.
Mydei’s head hurts. Just the regular kind of pain, easily managed by ignoring it until it goes away. But what makes it worse, is the confusion at his predicament. The memories returning to him in death used to vary in time and people who appeared in them. Why is it always Phainon nowadays?
“Fuck you,” Mydei says, hoarsely. He feels like he is losing his mind.
Phainon’s mouth locks mid-yawn and he blinks down at him stupidly, tilting his head with confusion. It’s probably fair, he hasn’t even done anything to earn Mydei’s ire as of late.
or; Human brain lives for a few more minutes after dying, replaying the most cherished memories. Mydei starts seeing Phainon after each of his deaths.

Summary
Mydei almost snorts at the way Phainon’s jaw clenches, invisible to an untrained eye.
“Perhaps another time?” Phainon laughs easily, placing himself at Mydei’s side and smoothly extracting him from the woman’s grip. He places his hand on Mydei’s nape in a friendly manner, tugging lightly on his hair. “We have some important business to attend to right now. Sorry to take Mydei here away from you, I’m sure he was having the time of his life.”
or; 5 times Phainon is a jealous and possessive idiot over Mydei, and 1 time Mydei returns the favor

Summary
Perdikkas comes into view, stepping closer to blink down at Phainon and Mydei on the ground. “You’re all here?”
Ptolemy scoffs, kicking lightly at the dirt. “Guess who has the extraordinary pleasure of being assigned the babysitting duty to the dumbass trio over here?” He rolls his eyes with a sharp sigh. “Not Peucesta, clearly. Lucky bastard.”
“Don’t lump me in with them,” Hephaestion protests. Ridiculous. Everyone knows who instigates the fights just as often as Phainon and Mydei.
“We don’t need babysitting,” Phainon says at the same time, words muffled as Mydei’s hand smashes his head into the ground, resuming their fight now that Ptolemy is distracted. Phainon almost bites down on the dirt by accident.
or; Phainon finds Mydei drifting at the Sea of Souls after Aedes Elysiae is destroyed. Pulling the other kid out of the water might be the best decision of his life
