Summary
Albedo likes to paint and Wanderer likes to break things.
The former also had the power of Khemia which can be used to create life, meanwhile, the latter has only brought about death and destruction. Albedo cannot fathom why creating things for the sake of creating things is such a hard concept for Wanderer to understand, meanwhile, Wanderer doesn't know why Albedo always holds back even though he holds so much power.
This fic is about how Albedo teaches Wanderer how to paint. Or at least that’s how I intended the fic to go, there was a lot to unpack first.

Summary
“Do you think you could use ashes to make a heart?” Wanderer asked the alchemist.
“We all begin and end as dust. Perhaps it would take a long time, but as everyone returns to earth, the earth will give back to us.”
The phrase that Albedo had muttered before immediately comes to mind, “…Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.”
“Exactly. As we all turn into ashes and dust upon our passing, we all start with ashes and dust as our beginning.”
———
Wanderer goes to Monstadt at the suggestion of Nahida, and there he befriends a creation who was nothing like him, unable to do anything but point out how many differences the two of them had. Meanwhile, Albedo discovers how many similarities they shared with this mysterious new wanderer, eventually realising how alike they really are.
