I’ve been writing fanfiction for years, but this is my first and only story for ASOUE.

I am so grateful to everyone who reviewed or otherwise expressed support for my story. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

For those who prefer to skip the plot, the following chapters have V/K scenes:

Chapters 8 (Contact), 9 (Beautiful), 10 (The First Time), 11 (What Endures), 13 (Beneath the Surface), 15 (Children of Misfortune), 20 (He Knows), 22 (One of Us), 31(The Other Side of the Fire), and the Epilogue.

(I don't count the Prologue as a chapter, so Chapter 1 is “Disappear,” the installment after the Prologue.)

Thanks for reading!
