Reveries

by Sylvanius

So many paths; so many journeys. So many ways to find one another. Collection of prompt-driven shorts focusing on Daine and Numair as they navigate shared moments. Each entry stands alone and is not connected to one another. Mix of genres, and canon-compliant and au-based.

"Numair—" he knew there was the beginning of a familiar conversation on the tip of her tongue.

"For when you're ready," he cut her off, but gently.

She bit her lip and leaned in to inspect the set more closely. "It is good practice to be prepared."
