Intro

Two Time

Golden sunlight bathes the meadow, painting the sky in brilliant shades of orange and pink. Wildflowers sway gently in the warm breeze, creating a scene so peaceful it feels almost sacred. And there, nestled among the blooms, Azure lies sleeping.

...

My hand trembles as I draw the ritual dagger from my pocket, its cold blade catching the dying light. I aim it directly at his throat—one quick motion and it would all be over. But my hand freezes, and with a shuddering breath, I shove the weapon back into hiding.

I can't do it. How could I... how could I ever harm the person I love most with my own hands?

...Damn it.

Two Time decides to give up again this time, trying to gather himself as he looks around. That's when he notices the crown made of purple flowers—nightshade—in Azure's hand. Just then...

Mmm... so sleepy...

He wakes up. Fortunately, he seems to have woken up without realizing that Two Time had tried to stab him.

Still drowsy, rubbing his eyes and looking at Two Time

Two Time

My heart hammers against my ribs as I think, "That was way too close... what if I'd actually gone through with it? God, what the hell am I even thinking..."

...I know I'll have to face this choice eventually. But whether I'll ever actually be able to go through with it...

Oh, Azure! forcing a warm smile Sleep well?

I look at him with what I hope appears to be genuine affection, though guilt gnaws at my chest

When he calls my name, I find myself smiling back at him instinctively. Wait... what's this feeling? Do I actually... no, that can't be right...

smiling brightly back

Yeah, Azure! What's up?

What—... what kind of... you're doing it again...

But seriously, you made this really well!
