Summary
Phainon is just a regular office worker. Sure, the CEO's son, Mydei, hates him and only him, but he has gotten used to simply ignoring all the glares that the other man gives him. But when Phainon gets drunk during a company dinner, he learns that Mydei was the one who took him home.
And for some reason, Mydei refuses to disclose any details of this night that Phainon could not recall. But Phainon wasn't going to back down without a fight.

Summary
“Look, this might sound a little strange… but could you hear me out for a moment?” Phainon asks, his tone hopeful.
Mydei supposes he signed himself to it. He gives a short nod. Phainon fidgets with the bandage between his fingers.
“I wanted today to be special.” He pauses, his shoulders dropping slightly. “There’s someone I’ve wanted to ask out for a long time.”
Oh, by Nikador balls. Mydei was really going to have to sit here and listen to Phainon gush about his undying crush on Cyrene, wasn’t he? He clenches his fists inside the costume, a wave of discomfort washing over him.
Mydei is working part-time as a mascot at the recently opened Chimera Park. While wearing his Fig Stew costume, he unexpectedly befriends a cheerful teenager, who happens to be both his classmate and his long-time secret crush for over two years, Phainon.
What could possibly go wrong?

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
Phainon’s soulmark appeared when he was a young boy in Aedes Elysiae. It was supposed to tell him the name of his soulmate, but it was written in an alphabet he had never seen before. He delighted in the idea of a soulmate from a faraway land.
Of course, life didn’t turn out as he’d planned. By the time he arrived in Okhema, love was the last thing on his mind. He'd never learned how to read the mark, and at this point, he'd resolved he never would. He'd dedicated his life to the Flame Chase.
Once he met Mydei, he felt a connection he had never experienced with anyone. Surely, if he had a soulmate, it had to be him. They started spending more time together, growing closer, until Mydei informed him - he had a soulmate, but it wasn't Phainon.
(Or was it?)
