Summary
Gorou is well aware that the middle of an ongoing battle is far from the most appropriate place for a reunion, and still—
He can’t help it. He really, really missed Kazuha. It’s too familiar, the sound of his voice, that boyish lilt that has kept him awake well into the night—first with stories and poems and words that sounded more beautiful than Gorou could have ever imagined, if only because they were Kazuha’s, and then—and then just with the memory, the ache.
All the space that the sound of the drifting wind couldn’t hope to fill.
(Gorou doesn’t know what drowning is like, but hearing Kazuha call him a friend after so long feels too much like coming up for air all the same.)
Or: Gorou isn't the best at saying what he means, but that's okay.

Summary
Kazuha has been raised to bring honor to his family name. He’s been raised with it tucked behind his ear, curled under his tongue. He’s been raised with it pushing at his ribcage, clawing and clawing and clawing, yet another reason to keep quiet, to smile pretty and pretend nothing inside him feels irreparably twisted.
So.
He says yes. When they tell him he’s to be married off, Kazuha says yes.
If he might be permitted to steal a taste of freedom amidst everything else—well. It might just be worth it. Worth whatever awaits him after.
Or: Kazuha leaves home, meets Gorou, and maybe, just maybe, starts to hope.
