How to blend two paths?

[240-185]

Hi,

I just purchased Affinity Designer, and while far more better to use than Inkscape, I am stuck with something simple; I would like to fusion two curves that share the same node.

Basically, I'd like to go from the first picture to the second picture. The thing is: I accidentally managed to do it once, but I can't seem to replicate it.

The common node mustn't be the last node of the first curve, therefore "Join curves" is not an option for me.

Any help would be welcome.

Are these wide brown coloured curves/paths with an additional stroke added to make a black outline? Can you do a screen of the layers relating to this part of the graphic?

It would also help to have the object selected with the node tool active/selected.

It was one layer for all these curves.

Meanwhile, I figured out how to fusion them: select both of them, then right-click → Geometry → Fusion curves.
