    Summary

    "More coffee?"
    Mydei looks up and for a moment feels like the breath has been knocked out of him, words lost in the face of the man who is hovering by his table. Handsome. Beautiful. Winsome is how Mydei would describe him in one of his books. He has clear bright eyes and an expression so sweet and boyish that it puts him in mind of a puppy.
    Unfortunately, because of his surprise and inappropriate staring, it takes him a beat too long to answer and the man's smile turns from friendly to something more knowing. Like he can see inside of Mydei’s head and all the indecent thoughts he’s trying to desperately put a lid on.

    Summary

    Phainon is twenty-nine years old, possessing a degree that does nothing but sit in display, and working odd jobs. Oh, and also close to losing his home thanks to Aedes Elysiae’s delightful housing costs.

    An opportunity comes in the form of a Jadeslist posting made by concerned parents seeking a ‘date’ for their son, Mydeimos, who has been suffering the curse of being single for all twenty-one years of his life. The pay? Nymphbook Air and twenty-five thousand Balance Coins.

    Phainon might just be the person for the job.

    (or: one sweltering summer, two people who are absolutely not in love, and a play in three acts.)
