    Summary

    "If it was nothing, you shouldn't have a problem repeating it," Mydei says, unmoving, but Phainon knows if his palms weren't oiled and powdery, he'd be folding his arms over his chest. Instead, they hang, claw-like, in front of him. It'd be funny if Phainon had the upper hand. "Look me in the eye..."

    Instead—in an obviously Pavlovian response—Phainon does.

    "…And ask. One more time."

    The song plummets into the bridge, petering out between them. Phainon inhales deeply, catalogues his crowded, eclectic dining/living room, at everything and everywhere except Mydei until he absolutely has to.

    "Right…um. So. Mydei…" he nods, smiles, even, despite the dread. No point in backing down now.

    "Do you want to make a sex tape?"

    Phainon has a proposition. His feelings for Mydei are (definitely) not part of it.

    Summary

    Kaveh comes home drunk (allegedly) and takes a seat in Alhaitham's lap, much like he had before they started dating.

    Summary

    “The purpose of marriage in Kremnos is to continue a bloodline. The more accolades you collect on the battlefield, the more valuable you are to your family. Very few are privileged enough to marry for love. Love is…reserved for the one you're bound to by your heart, not by the decree of the law.” 

    “Is that not the same person, usually?”

    Mydei lifts his eyes to Phainon’s, and he freezes, as if pinned in place.

    “No,” Mydei says, with as much weight as it deserves.

    He swears he hears Phainon swallow.

    “Oh...”

    On a night like any other, in one of Amphoreus's many cycles, Mydei and Phainon discuss everyone's marriage but their own.

    Summary

    Something in him—maybe some sort of last-ditch effort of self-preservating instinct—tingles at the base of his skull. A preview of the forum app icon stares up at him from beside the string of the link, its marshmallow-y thumb stuck up with a grin.

    Shaking off his last shred of reluctance, Mydei taps it. A white screen buffers, and then the horror begins to unfold.

    My [28Mβ] long-term partner [27Mα] refuses to spend his rut together because of knotting. Is his concern justified?

    After Mydei receives some unexpected news, Phainon goes looking for advice in equally unexpected places.
