    Summary

    Nicole is a stranger to romance. The curse placed upon her by the Heavenly Principles made it a subject too dangerous to touch. Even now, years after Alice broke said curse, she still treats the subject with cautious fear. When Barbeloth challenges her to write a love story, Nicole does not back down in spite of her reservation. Not when winning the bet means Barbeloth will take care of Nicole’s share of the most boring job of the Witches of the Hexenzirkel for the next three months.

    In her search for inspiration, Nicole discovers that Varka would make the perfect protagonist to her love story. She dedicates herself to a period of careful observation to better understand the Grandmaster and in the process, definitely, definitely does not gain any feelings for him. Nicole is an angel, she knows better…right?

    Or the time Nicole tried (and failed) to write a love story.

    Summary

    He reminds you, “On our wedding night, I told you that we had to move forward, and I meant for us to do so together. You might think I’m a savage and that our way of life is barbaric. But that doesn’t mean I won’t offer you my support when you’re struggling. That is my duty as—”

    You lash out, “I don’t care about what your duty is, Shen!” Pivoting around, you grasp the edge of the tub and hold onto it as you stare at your husband. He gazes at you with equal anger, but his simmers beneath the surface.

    He spits out, “If it is not duty binding us, then what will? Tell me what you want, and I’ll do what you ask. Is that not how a good husband should behave?”

    Summary

    Zayne was your best friend in childhood. But he moved, and things changed. You haven't seen him in years, but a chance crossing sends you spiraling. Turns out, you harbor some bitterness for the friend who abandoned you so long ago. But it's old history, nothing worth getting into at this point, and Linkon is a big city -- you'll never run into him again. Right?
