Summary
Katsuragi sighs again and reaches down for the kid’s cloth-wrapped wrist. As soon as their skin makes contact, the hair on the back of Katsuragi’s neck stands up. It’s as if every fiber of his being tenses, and he swears he tastes metal in the air, and instinctively he knows that he’s just stepped onto ground zero.
It’s ominous enough to give him pause, but he isn’t about to leave a lost child to fend for themselves in the middle of an abandoned domain just because of a flash of intuition.
“C’mon, let’s get you cleaned up.” As Katsuragi leads the small teenager by the wrist, he can’t help but think:
What in Celestia have I gotten myself into?
—
katsuragi wasn't expecting a new roommate.
he certainly wasn't expecting a creepy, inhuman roommate.
but that's just the nature of fate, isn't it?

Summary
There’s nothing for a few seconds, and then the puppet hears more shuffling. A grey eye peeks through a crack in the door.
“Hi,” comes a soft voice. “Are you lonely, too?”
Nothing good lasts forever.
But the same can be said for the bad.
—
three things died that day:
an innocent child,
any hope for a better future,
and the puppet's foolish desire to become human.

Summary
He remembers all too quickly, and for perhaps the first time in his life, he thinks he’d prefer to be back in the nightmare.
The Dendro Archon who has stolen everything from him sits at his feet, eyeing him with equal parts curiosity and apprehension.
He is not supposed to be awake. Why does he have to be awake?
—
healing comes unbidden and slow, but it comes nonetheless.
(healing is found in the patience of a goddess willing to take a chance on a worthless puppet...
and all too ready to invite herself into his life.
healing comes unbidden.)
