    Summary

    Prince Cyno is waiting for him at the entrance. Wordlessly, he takes Tighnari’s hand and kisses it stiffly, dutifully. He is strikingly handsome, but his expression is sharp and severe. Disinclined to laughter, to joy.
    “Your Highness,” he says, and does not smile.
    “Your Highness,” Tighnari says, and despairs.

    a tale of two princes.

    Summary

    At the celebration feast, Nilou asked Cyno if he would be happy continuing to be the General Mahamatra.

    Cyno said, “It’s not about being happy. There are merely a lot of things that I must do.”

    Alhaitham can’t say for certain why Cyno’s words bothered him. In a way, the sentiment is unsurprising; Cyno is, after all, dutiful to a fault. It makes sense that he puts his work over himself. Even so, Alhaitham wonders what the shape of Cyno’s happiness would be, if he allowed it to take form. If he ever allowed someone like Alhaitham to witness it.

    Which he certainly never would.

    Or: In the midst of the Akademiya’s rebuilding, Nahida sends her closest advisors on a trip through Sumeru.

    Summary

    The last place on earth Sakusa Kiyoomi wants to be is on this godforsaken ship sailing across the seas to attend a boring science lecture, but it is a necessary evil if he wishes to avoid attending his grandmother's birthday celebrations.

    That is, until his ship is boarded by a band of pirates and Kiyoomi finds himself in extremely unwanted company.

    He can cope with most of the rambunctious crew; though they're armed to the hilt, they're relatively harmless.

    He cannot, however, cope with human hurricane Miya Atsumu.

    Summary

    The mystery athlete gives Kiyoomi a once over in the mirror. “Yer pretty tall,” he observes. The twang of an accent rasps low in his throat. His brazen eyes drift to Kiyoomi’s legs, and something like exhilaration glints gold in his gaze. “Good quads, too. Ya ever played volleyball?”
     
    Ah. So it’s volleyball.

    “I’m a dancer. Ballet and contemporary, mostly.”
