Summary
Two years after Arkadii’s death, the empire lies in ruins, the board is empty, and the war is long over. At a reunion party filled with noise and ghosts of the past, Yumeko and Kira finally find each other again—alone in the quiet, where old tension meets new freedom. After years of fear, silence, and missed chances, maybe this time they can leave the game behind… together.

Summary
Kira Timurov climbs to control the chaos in her life — every hold calculated, every breath measured. Yumeko Jabami climbs for the thrill of not knowing what comes next. When Yumeko challenges her to a blindfolded trust climb, Kira agrees only to prove she can master even risk itself. But halfway up the wall, guided only by Yumeko’s voice, Kira discovers that trust isn’t something you command — it’s something you surrender to.

Summary
“We’ve decided, together, that you two will be Ellie’s guardians. Not because it’ll be easy. But because you loved us, and you’ll love her. In your own opposite, ridiculous ways.”
There was a long pause.
The words sank in like slow poison. Kira’s jaw tightened. Yumeko blinked fast, then laughed once — soft and broken.“Joint guardians,” Kira repeated, each syllable measured. “That’s absurd.”
“They trusted us,” Yumeko murmured. “Mary trusted me. Riri trusted you.”“They trusted us together,” Kira said flatly, as if the word itself were a curse. “That was their first mistake.”
When tragedy names two ex-lovers as joint guardians of a baby girl, they’re forced back into each other’s orbit with no roadmap for how to coexist — or how to heal.
Thrown together in a small house filled with memories, they navigate sleepless nights, quiet arguments, and unexpected laughter as grief slowly reshapes into something else.
It is a story about the strange ways love returns — through duty, tenderness, and the fragile act of trying again.Series

Summary
“Oh, it’s nothing terrible,” Mary said innocently. “Just a little event tonight at the student center.”
Kira’s eyes narrowed. “Define ‘event.’”
Riri grinned. “The LGBTQ+ alliance is hosting their annual speed dating night.”
Kira froze.
Mary’s grin widened. “You’ll have fun! Meet some people! Get out of that council-president shell of yours. Half the campus is terrified of you — this’ll show them you’re human.”
“I am not going to—”
“—back out of a bet,” Riri interrupted smoothly. “We had an agreement. Besides,” she added, feigning nonchalance, “you’re single, and it’s time you lived a little.”Series

Summary
Yumeko’s answer wasn’t verbal. She walked up to the table, smiling like she’d just stepped out of a daydream, and placed something into Kira’s hands.
A plastic baby.
Kira froze. “What,” she said flatly, “are you doing?”
“Your turn to tame the devil,” Yumeko chirped, brushing a strand of black hair from her face.
The baby’s eyes blinked with mechanical menace. Then it screamed—shrill and awful, like an air raid siren.
Every head at the table turned.
Suki’s hand shot up first. “Oh my god. Motherhood suits you, Kira.”

Summary
"Riri and Mary. Romantic siege. I tried to wait it out, but the noises got... passionate." Yumeko waved vaguely, like that explained everything. "I thought I'd give them privacy before I suffer secondhand embarrassment."
Kira's eyes narrowed. "And this concerns me because...?"
"Because your bed count equals two," Yumeko said sweetly. "And one of them belongs to Riri, who's clearly not using it right now."
Kira blinked again, utterly scandalized. "You want to sleep in my sister's bed?"

Summary
Kira Timurov stood near the base of the grand staircase.
She was dressed impeccably, of course. Dark hair framed her face neatly, green eyes sharp and distant. Her hands were folded in front of her lap, posture straight, controlled, commanding in the way of someone who had been trained to stand that way since childhood. She looked every bit the perfect centerpiece of the evening.
And she looked absolutely miserable.

Summary
Yumeko slipped a folded sheet of paper from her bag and held it up.
“I’m writing my thesis on modern therapy methodology,” she explained, almost academically. “Specifically the problem of therapists making assumptions too quickly.”
Kira did not take the paper.
“And you require my participation because…?”
“I test how long it takes therapists to realize the couple in front of them isn’t actually a couple.”

Summary
“Good,” Yumeko said softly. “I knew I hired the right person.”
Kira looked up sharply. “You didn’t know it was me.”
“Didn’t I?” Yumeko smiled, a small, private thing that landed somewhere between mischief and affection. “I might’ve recognized your name on the contract and hoped.”
Kira’s jaw tightened. “This doesn’t change anything.”
“Of course not,” Yumeko said, entirely too brightly. “We’ll be strictly professional. I wouldn’t dream of complicating your life.”

“Look at her,” Yumeko whispered to Kira. “She’s plotting.”
“She’s a cat,” Kira said, sipping her tea.
“She’s calculating,” Yumeko corrected — just before Nyx leapt down, sniffed the toy… and sank her teeth directly into Yumeko’s finger.

Summary
She looked furious. And heartbreakingly composed about it.
“Hi,” Yumeko said, voice soft with surprise. “You look…” she tilted her head, considering, “like you just walked out of a murder mystery and haven’t decided who the victim is yet.”
The stranger exhaled, long and sharp. “How do I passive-aggressively say fuck you in flower?”
Mary snorted from the sink, almost cutting her finger. “What did she just—”
But Yumeko raised a hand, smiling faintly. “You came to the right place.”

Summary
Kira nodded. “We split the bills. Alternate cleaning. No overnight guests.”
“Harsh,” Yumeko said. “What if I fall in love?”
Kira didn’t even look up from her notebook. “Not my problem.”
“Oh, but it might be,” Yumeko teased, leaning in just close enough that Kira’s composure wavered for a second — just a second.
Kira snapped the notebook shut. “It won’t be.”
Yumeko’s grin widened, like she’d just been given a challenge. “Sure thing, Timurov. Just until you fall in love with me.”
“Not happening,” Kira muttered, brushing past her toward her room.

Summary
Yumeko smiled again, soft this time. "You know, Dean, for someone in charge of managing people, you seem to dislike unpredictability."
"Unpredictability," Kira replied evenly, "is how institutions collapse."
"And control," Yumeko countered, "is how people suffocate."
The silence between them thickened — that sharp, invisible current that had followed every meeting since the semester began. Yumeko thrived in it, clearly; Kira endured it.
"Do you enjoy testing me?" Kira asked finally, unable to stop herself.
Yumeko blinked, feigning innocence. "I enjoy understanding people. You just happen to be... fascinatingly difficult to read."

Summary
Yumeko crossed her arms. “So. What’s the emergency? You finally ran out of people to boss around?”
Kira exhaled slowly, like she’d prepared for that exact tone. “It’s not an emergency. I just— I need to ask you for something.”
That earned a raised brow. “You, asking me?”
“Yes,” Kira said, steady but tense. “There’s a family event this weekend. A dinner. My father will be there. And… I may have told him that we’re still—” she faltered, a rare thing— “together.”
