    The Cold Place is never really cold. Not for him. Just snow that goes on for ages, and ages, and ages, and ages...

    Summary

    During the manor, there was a very brief time where Heathcliff hated Yi Sang with all of his envious heart. The mirror, which saved Yi Sang from his suffering, brought Heathcliff to his ruin. That same mirror that Yi Sang adored, created, and loved destroyed Heathcliff's life.

    Then he remembered the look of utter betrayal Yi Sang cast towards Aseah, the furious in his eyes that Heathcliff had never seen from him before, and he decided to deal with his own damn problems before blaming them on someone else again.

    There's apparently a million different Yi Sangs to love. Well, Heathcliff won't love all of them, but he can try his hardest to at least talk.

    Summary

    At length, once, he spoke to a woman named Don Quixote on the art of assassination. He learned quite a few things that were soon lost in her time, with the barrage of requests and the spinning, relentless clock hands.

    However, he began to experience these exhilarating thoughts once more with the student who had been entrusted to him in his time of need.

    Yi Sang's entrusted friend Heathcliff of the Shi Association is, presently, acting strange.

    Summary

    “Hullo there,” the Rabbit says, facing him. Yi Sang instinctively shrinks back in his seat – it is the emotion a prey feels as the predator stalks them through the glass, when the Rabbit (covered in blood, bleeding from a head wound, licking the gore off his lips with something unstable in his eyes) approaches him with a red blade. “Who’re you?”

    Misery that folds between two trains, interrupted by a predator-prey. Yi Sang is cleaned up.

    Summary

    Quixote: Hark, Heathcliff. Why am I saved as ‘Quixote’ in your phone?

    Heathcliff: What, were you peeking, lass?

    Quixote: Nay, nay! I took only the smallest of peeks - nay, the tiniest of peeks on your device, and my name had shown on the notifications screen! Only the smallest of peeks – accidental in nature, verily!

    Heathcliff: Well, what's wrong with Quixote?

    Quixote: Forsooth, it forgoes my title of nobility, which I acquired through strife and bloodshed, valiant efforts to become a proper Knight-Fixer! Verily, thou shan't disrespect my good name!

    Heathcliff: Okay, lass, I'll put you in as DQ. How about that?

    Quixote: Fie to thee!

    Don Quixote's shitty anniversary party turns Heathcliff's amicable relationship with his coworker into a romantic comedy where he's the comedic relief. Cheers.

    Summary

    “Then can we interest you in anything else? A luxury pillow? A bouquet of flowers? Women appreciate the romantic things – and you might not be providing that! They won't tell you that you're not doing enough for them until they've already left you, good sir, so you have to start taking the initiative or she'll leave you to the dust!”

    Heathcliff purses his lips and stares at the ring on his own finger. Dark gray and juvenile and only coming off when he doesn't want it to get dirty. He throws his head back and thinks about Yi Sang's tired expression. Yi Sang smiling, face red from three cans of beer. Yi Sang looking at him with disgust and saying, “Heathcliff, I was never truly satisfied in our relationship, for you did only the bare minimum for me,” or something smart like that.

    ...

    In the end, he buys the most expensive bouquet of crimson red roses that he's ever purchased.

    Heathcliff loves Yi Sang with all his heart. The next part is what's scaring him.

    Summary

    “...Ah! I see,” Hong Lu says, clapping. “It's make-believe! What role do you play then, Yi Sang?”

    Yi Sang watches as Don Quixote relinquishes a mighty blow with Rocinante into Heathcliff's crotch. Heathcliff howls. Even Sinclair winces.

    “The audience,” Yi Sang replies flatly.

    Don Quixote and Heathcliff, locked in fierce and unyielding duels for the good princess Sinclair of the kingdom Limbus... and other things related to such an occurrence. That's all.

    Summary

    It's not as if Yi Sang did not know Heathcliff was beautiful. The extent of his beauty, however, has become apparent to him; Heathcliff has always been gruff, and prickly, and hard to approach, but Yi Sang has – with care and gentleness, like a lover – unraveled the skin beneath Heathcliff’s meat. Heathcliff simply loves to please people he likes. Heathcliff likes Yi Sang. Is this act to please Yi Sang, his superior, or Sang Yi? Is it both? If Yi Sang and Sang Yi are one in the same, would he pleasure both of them upon asking without a moment's notice?

    “B – Boss,” Heathcliff says, voice trembling and raw, “can I fuck him?”

    A discussion of the differences between the mirror selves/an art study through the lenses of an observer.

    Summary

    Don Quixote, fearing Yi Sang would never kill the offending insect, squished it with her hand. He looked slightly upset at this.

    She did not care, and her other arm finally managed to yank the glass out of Sinclair's flimsy grip, and she set it towards herself and lifted her chin, as if to challenge him to take it. Then, for extra show, she cracked her knuckles, rolled her neck, and said, “My good Sinclair, do you think the lance mineself carries every day is light?”

    Summary

    “I – how could I,” Heathcliff replies, and his breathing picks up. “Fuckin’ – mutt shows up at your door askin’ for help with stupid shite like t-this. You'd… throw me away as soon as I asked… I –”

    “Take your E.G.O. off,” Yi Sang says.

    An unknown abnormality changes Heathcliff's eye color, and other things that happen alongside that.

    Summary

    The man eyes him warily as if unsure if Yi Sang is joking or not. Yi Sang sighs heavily once more; his fellows will receive not only a scolding but a reminder that they are not terrorists or tormentors, simply activists… “The Technology Liberation Alliance frequency searches the remnants of the Lobotomy Corporation branch facility in search of new equipment,” Yi Sang says, wishing he had a fan to cover the displeased grimace on his face. “You must have been found there. Naturally, as I am their leader, they brought me to you…”

    “‘Kay,” the man says. “Enough said. Let me go.”

    The Technology Liberation Alliance brings in a vagabond from a Lobotomy Corporation branch facility expedition.

    Summary

    He slowly trudges to the alleyway; the mud has disappeared under his feet at this point, replaced with concrete, and he wonders when the landscape became a sprawling urban city instead of his peaceful nowhere. His wings flutter. The glass brushes against his cloth. He must fly once more. From there, in the sky, perhaps he may break from loneliness. Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps. Goodbye.

    That child who becomes lazy and knows nothing is greeted by the electric shock of the sky. Goodbye.

    Summary

    A new factory opens, and production increases, and slowly a supernova happens in the sky, something bright and intense and firey that no one in the world can see, for innovation takes priority over the natural. The colors on the wall dance. He stuffs a hand in his pocket; he sneaks a glance at Yi Sang.

    Yi Sang is similarly entranced. It's an unknown look on him, who is always so serious, or cunning, or coy.

    Heathcliff looks away.

    Summary

    “What Yi Sang is trying to say,” Ishmael interrupts, "is that while we were in the Mirror Dungeons fighting those cyborg things, you got wrapped up in all the pink ribbons and totally lost your mind. You rampaged for a bit and then fell unconscious, but now you're still all loopy like you were earlier. So, what the hell?”

    “Wha’ th’ hell?” Heathcliff repeats. Then he snorts and looks up at Yi Sang. “Are my eyes pink? Like ya said?”

    Getting hit by an abnormality's status effect that lasted longer than a Mirror Dungeon run wasn't Heathcliff's ideal end to the day, because every action he seems to take predicts some sort of shameful regret in his future. Especially about Yi Sang.

    Summary

    Everything is falling apart. Everything has fallen apart. The world has ended – she was his world, and she has been erased. The apocalypse has come, paradise is lost, the Second Coming is here. The bird flies without a master, the dog fights without a leash. Chaos forms a tempest in his heart, a calamity without stopping that he prefers less to the infallible her, whom destroyed him and made him destroy others.

    It's like dying.

    At the end of the world, there's the Limbus Company Bus, and there's Yi Sang.

    Summary

    “I propose,” Don Quixote said, with great confidence, “that we make a dish.”

    Yi Sang and Sinclair peered at her with slight interest. She continued: “A dish, my good fellows, contains all the sentiments in the world, as long as such a meal is bathed in the love you feel whilst you prepare it! Hark! She will have no choice but to truly grasp in the depths of emotion we feel towards our good friend and her return when we have devised a meal so crafty it is irresistible!”

    “Hm,” Sinclair said. “It… could work.”

    Summary

    “So!” At once, Don Quixote realized she said nothing at all, and during her rant she had made to stand while banging her lance on the ground to make a point. “Yes,” she said, smiling gracefully. “Indeed.”

    Summary

    This is a death sentence, and he has no choice but to take it willingly, say, “thank you for giving me an opportunity,” pray that he makes it out alive and can pay his rent next month while starving because he can't afford meals. This is a death sentence. The phrase rings through his mind, makes him drop the papers to his desk and clutch his forehead, his skull ringing fiercely: this is a death sentence. This is a death sentence. This is a death sentence.

    Ha-neul is a Grade 8, barely getting by with each passing paycheck. Suddenly, he's on a solo mission with a woman named Eloise Nevada, scouring an abandoned branch facility in Nest 12; branch Y-5629.

    He doesn't like what he finds.
