    Summary

    “Your pronunciation’s even worse than a toddler’s.” 

    “That’s because you’re a terrible teacher,” Phainon says, petulance in his voice thin over affection.

    Only then does Mydei fully turn to his side to face him, eyeing the way the dim light seems to catch the silver of Phainon’s hair. He reaches over without thinking. “Like this,” he mutters, thumb pressing against Phainon’s bottom lip to force the correct shape. “Your tongue here,” his touch lingers. “And don’t enunciate the last syllable too much.” 

    Or, when Phainon asked Mydei to teach him the Kremnoan language, he expected refusal. Much to his surprise, Mydei agrees. But as the words come easier, so does everything else Phainon was never supposed to understand.

    Summary

    As soon as Phainon stepped foot into the garden, his eyes immediately zeroed on Mydei sitting in the sea of bright flowers. His parents were beside him, quietly talking to each other.

    Phainon’s breath hitched but before he could walk away and try another day, Beagle Coconut broke away from the mini chimera formation at Phainon’s legs with an excited shriek as soon as it spotted Fig Stew sleeping near Mydei. It barreled into the poor creature, talking a mile per minute and ignoring Fig Stew’s sleepy hissing and bristling fur. Beagle Coconut’s blue eyes sparkled like two little stars as it relayed everything that happened to it in the short time they were separated.

    Phainon felt himself die a little inside. Was that how he acted when he was away from Mydei for a few days?

    a strange curse had befallen the newly restored Amphoreus causing all of her people to wake up with breathing, living manifestations of their emotions. Phainon tries to deal with it the best way he can but it's hard, not only because he, for some reason, has three manifestations but also because now he has no choice but to face the true emotions of people closest to him. specifically... Mydei's.

    Summary

    Phainon swallows around nothing, looking at the new boy, taking in his striking, angular face and sharp, golden eyes that never leave the Headmaster.

    “Who's that?” he asks no one in particular, his voice a little breathless even in his own ears.

    “Mydeimos Kremnos. You know those Kremnoses," the fourth-year standing next to him whispers back. "He's practically wizarding world royalty."

    ---
    By his seventh year in Hogwarts, Phainon likes to think he’s gotten pretty good at this wizarding thing. On top of being both the Gryffindor Quidditch captain and a Prefect, he has plenty of friends and decent grades—everything he needs for a memorable but not too difficult graduation year. But when the Triwizard tournament is announced to return, and Hogwarts welcomes international guests, Phainon finds himself inexplicably drawn to Durmstrang’s would-be champion Mydeimos. When the Goblet of Fire spits out both their names, it’s sure to be an exciting year.

    Summary

    Sinking to rock bottom looks different to different people. Some know they’re on the way when they lose their job. Others may feel the slip when they’re spending more time in casinos than in the comfort of their own home. Sometimes it’s as mundane as simply noticing your hairline receding from excess stress.

    Phainon knew he was sinking to his own rock bottom when he woke up sweaty and seconds from orgasm after a wet dream about a fucking lingerie model.

    Or, Phainon accidentally develops a fixation on a man thanks to his own traitorous mind, and instead of behaving rationally, he continually makes the problem ten times worse. Apparently, having a PhD in understanding the human psyche does not make you immune to the biological weaknesses of it.

    Summary

    The hand he took that night was small, but so very warm. And the hug he was given in the carriage was reminiscent of how his sister would comfort him when the night was too dark. The child spoke of many promises to train him, to become his mentor, and to make him invincible. Stronger he will be, and he will find all of those who had dared take away everything he had ever known. Anger was an emotion that used to be foreign in his heart, but now it wraps around him like chains, digging into his skin and branding him so he may never forget his reason for existence.

    He survived. Therefore, he must pay for it with his life.
