Summary
Allen used to tell people about the reason behind his scar, behind his hair. He would remember the dreams and shiver, his bones aching with the fear and pain echoed in his heart.
But no matter how he tried to explain it, no one ever really understood. He was greeted by a concerned smile and hugs, with words of "That must have been so hard," and "I'm sorry," as if it could fix things. Never by anyone saying

Summary
Allen never liked keeping memories. They were such painful things. The past was a curse that only turned him into someone twisted, someone with secrets and fear and always terribly alone inside his head. There was no value in something that weighed him down, kept him from moving in the mornings. And then Allen remembered a cure.
If memories hurt so much, he just has to forget.
An AU in which Allen is an amnesiac who doesn't want to get better and Kanda wishes he'd never gotten attached to such an idiot.
