Summary
She overheard a man pray, once. “I want to live forever,” he’d pleaded.
If she’d had the strength to admit it, she would’ve told him that immortality is its own torment.

Summary
A cross-dressing swordswoman and a blind puppet find common ground in their travels across Inazuma. She’s looking for her missing brother. He’s hunting down the yokai that stole his body.
Kunikuzushi struggles to keep his path when embroiled between his mission to break his curse and a new friendship, while Lumine struggles between her adventures and a duty to the city that threw her out.
Over a months-long trip across Inazuma, they will face many dangers and grow closer than either ever expected.
(Dororo AU, no familiarity with Dororo needed to understand this.)

Summary
"Why make both of us suffer," Lumine says, tempering her voice to be sweet and coaxing as she tries to keep up with his rapid strides. "I’m sure you can have a more comfortable dinner without me around to make things miserable."
He stops in his track and looks back at her, and his eyes are burning with an insistence she doesn’t understand. An ire that could only be cultivated through years and years of hatred, sharpened and whetted over and over again. When he speaks, his scorn is palpable despite the chill of the night, words pointed like a knife. "I’ll suffer the misery gladly," he says, "if I can see you suffer that same misery alongside me."
or: when the job offer is too good to be true, think twice before accepting—then accept it anyways.

Summary
“...Say I choose to play your little game,” Wanderer says, “and I choose to follow these rules. You still haven’t told me though.”
“Told you what?”
He leans close, just until their foreheads are touching.
“What’s in it for me?” he whispers. “What do I get out of this, Traveller?”
“...My undying gratitude?” she says weakly.

Summary
You live at the foot of a mountain with your husband, where there is nothing more for you to want in the peace you’ve cultivated together.
Until he comes home after a blizzard that should have killed him, bearing a smile that does not belong to the man you once married.
