    Summary

    The fight with Dottore went as badly as Sandrone feared. She'd had plans laid that she'd hoped would work in her absense, but none of them involved this. The instant she died, she awoke ten years earlier, in the middle of a tea party with her lost friends. She has no idea what's caused this, or even if it's real, but she has ten years to save the woman she loves and her best friends.

    Summary

    The town called the killer Ghostface.

    A masked murderer stalks the quiet streets surrounding Teyvat University, leaving behind a trail of carefully orchestrated murders and a police force chasing shadows. As fear spreads and every ringing phone becomes a source of dread, one person begins to notice that the killings aren't as random as they seem.

    Sandrone has always trusted logic over rumor. While everyone else searches for a monster, she searches for a pattern.

    Columbina simply watches with a smile.

    Soft-spoken, peculiar, and impossible to read, she drifts into Sandrone's life with unsettling ease, offering innocent conversations and gentle smiles while secretly delighting in the other's growing fascination with the case. The closer Sandrone comes to unraveling Ghostface's carefully constructed game, the more Columbina finds herself captivated by the only person clever enough to understand her.

    After all, every masterpiece deserves someone who can appreciate it.

    And every Ghostface story needs a final girl.

    Summary

    Nicole looks at Alice and thinks about shooting stars—how they burn brightest when they're falling, how you can't hold onto something moving that fast. That's what Alice had been from the beginning: all fire and forward momentum, brilliant and untouchable, the kind of person who leaves everyone else scrambling to keep up. Nicole had watched people try. Watched them reach for Alice like she was something that could be caught, something that could be held.

    She won't be one of them.

    The realization settles in her chest, bittersweet and certain. Nicole will never catch Alice, even if she tried. Maybe especially if she tried.

    Nicole has never known what it’s like to desire anything until she meets Alice.

    Summary

    The world seemed to tilt sideways. Jahoda stood up on shaky legs. "We're... you think we're dating?"

    Ineffa's expression shifted, her systems clearly struggling to process contradictory information. Her optical sensors dimmed and brightened rapidly. "Error. Statement does not compute. Jahoda, running diagnostic: are you experiencing cognitive malfunction? Scanning for head trauma indicators—"

    "I'm not—Ineffa, stop." Jahoda pressed her hands to her face. "We're not dating. We've never been dating."

    Silence. When Jahoda looked up, Ineffa had gone completely still, the tray trembling slightly in her hands.

    Or: What are you talking about boss Nef? It’s totally normal to kiss your roommate!

    Summary

    "So," she said, licking her lips, voice tight, "do you have anything to say for yourself or are you going to keep standing there looking like a dopey idiot?"

    "Hmm, no I don't think so," Columbina tilted her head thoughtfully.

    Sandrone's nose wrinkled and her eyes flitted lower. Columbina's pants were riding low, the harness that'd thrown her into hysterics earlier still visible.

    "You go out into public wearing that and—What? What were you expecting?"

    "I wasn't expecting anything," Columbina said.

    "You're genuinely the worst."
