Summary
Kafka doesn’t deal with crying very well. She realises this now, in the very moment she is faced with it. She feels struck by it— perhaps not so much by Stelle’s tears themselves, but by the way her arms are frozen in place at the sight.

Summary
Still, like a selfish child, Kafka wants more. She wants more than just to see or to watch, like she’s some voyeur staring through a window into another life. She wants to hold, to feel, and to love.

Summary
The first thing she felt was the warmth of the sun on her clammy skin, causing her to tense from the temperature difference—since when were the usual domains so cold? Then, the faint aroma of warm pastries, sweet and floral, which relieved her senses after growing so used to the scent of rotting flesh. Oh, how she couldn’t wait to finally go back to the real world and take a proper shower, even if the filth she was covered in now wouldn’t carry over there.
Hesitantly, amber eyes peeled open, dragging across everything in sight. The wash of honeyed sunlight that cascaded through the stained glass windows patterned like plum blossoms, framed by curtains pulled back; the fine china set about the cream-coloured table, steam still filtering from the tops of delicate teacups full of tea; the heat that flushed her cheeks when she realized who was situated amongst all of it, a fragment of a tender reprieve embedded into the unforgiving code of Herta’s magnum opus:
Ruan Mei.
Or, Stelle runs into a familiar face amidst her journey in the Swarm Disaster and tries some pastries along the way, too.

Summary
Stelle's self care has slipped in the wake of the conclusion of events in Amphoreus. Naturally, her companions aren't going to let that slide, especially given how she was the one bothering everyone about self care before all this. Dan Heng comes up to feed and comfort her first; March stops by again with him later.
