After the day of the promise, she has had enough. Tamao is constantly uncertain about when to give up and which boundaries to honor. She continues to tease her beloved sister and push her past her breaking point.    To be honest, Yashi wished Tamao had dropped dead when she shot at her parachute. Before the mission starts, before the two human teams merge into one, Yashi has told everyone in the squad that she has unexplainable discomfort while staying in the same place as Tamao...

   Tokuko checked the driver of their ship thoroughly before leaving the navigator room. She has been the one who controls this ship since the start of this mission. But now, she's switching to another role that is much more important: sneaking onto the first ship and stealing the vault key, which is secured very well. When the sun is rising, the sky is dimmed with faint light, and the new-day clouds are dyed a pastel pink tone. Tokuko has fluently mastered the control board and all buttons...

Riel had been minding his own business, doing his best to ignore the snow and the biting weather, when a snowball landed right between his hairline and the neckline of his jacket. It shattered on the impact, oozing down his clothes across his skin, and he hissed and ducked on instinct. It was a good instinct, too. Another snowball whizzed right past the stop where he’d been standing. Maybe it wouldn’t have landed right in his face, but Riel was glad that he didn’t have to find out the h...

Makenna hummed along with the music playing on her radio, her fox tail swishing to the beat as she carefully plopped mini marshmallows in the mugs of hot chocolate sitting on her serving tray. Once she had the marshmallows in the mug, she stashed away the bag then carefully grabbed the tray and made her way to the living room where her friends Rhapsody and Lisette were sitting and chatting away on her couch. ...

- I can do it! You all can trust me! Yukino said to the adults who were worried. This is the past day's morning when the human ship landed for a quick but important repair. Yashi and Sasaki have already left to search for material providers; Hoshi enters the forest to find Yukari, Tamao, and the Matsuhiro sisters. Only Tsukino, Tokuko, and Yukino stay to guard the ship. The mint catgirl was the youngest here and also the most energetic. Both the commander and her aide are in a tired st...

The ship controlled by humans is now heavily damaged. After providing support to a small group of humans who just finished messing up an Arma Caeli ship, they fight alongside another ally ship controlled by the Fauns. With the two powers cooperating, the battle has been much easier for them. But this won't last long, since the Fauns ship wants to go in another direction to keep guarding their realm, while the humans want to find the Arma vault. They separated, and the humans fell into another...

Huizhong’s home always had that holiday atmosphere. It had taken Kendall three years to realize that this wasn’t about the atmosphere itself — not about the apartment, the time of the year, or the food served, but rather about Huizhong himself. It was their third year coming to Huizhong’s for Christmas. They were excited about it, which they thought spoke volumes about the situation. Kendall was the last one to arrive. When Huizhong opened his door, his dimple...

Kirifuren waited for Yukari in the forest. Looking at the large fire slowly starting to cover the new base, she let out a sigh. This is not really a base; it's more like a warehouse that Arma Caeli has built. But it's not a matter; as long as she can destroy something, then her efforts definitely didn't go to waste. There are no fuel barrels or explosive bombs in this place; Yukari has been overthinking when she was worrying to death for that. It's just a normal large fire, and Kirifuren is s...
