Haruka’s nearly finished picking up the pieces of his life when a jobless grump parks himself on his living room floor and shakes up what he has left to figure out.

"What do you want to make?”
He hasn’t thought that far, brain still focused on what’s missing from his lanterns. “I don’t know yet.”
“You know that shitty art in our room in California? ”
“What about it?”
He shrugs. “Just a jumping off point. It was so ugly, maybe you can make it nice. What were those? Daisies?”
Haruka laughs a little bit. “Not even close. But I’ll think about it."

It's Haruka's birthday--and he's stuck spending it with Nagisa, somehow, in Tokyo's gay district. So when Nagisa wants to give him a present, he wants exactly none of it.
What he doesn't realize, though, is that there's something for everyone in Shinjuku ni-chōme.

Summary
“Were we like that?” Ikuya muses. “I don’t remember.”
“It was the other way around with me. They’ll never live down being seen in public with my hyperactive ass. I’m not sure if I was a bad influence on you or not,” he says. “You were always ready to pop off too.”
“I was a powder keg. You were just the match.”
Asahi has spent the last decade regretting everything he didn't say.
Trying to get over Ikuya led to a fractured relationship he did nothing to mend, landing him in the arms of the wrong person. When Ikuya left Japan to pursue a different path, a heartbroken, guilt-ridden Asahi assumed he'd never see him again.
Now in their thirties, Ikuya is back, and he's…different. From their broken places a new connection forms - but their shared history and Ikuya's own pain threaten to ruin them.
This is a companion piece to hypothetically, this time from Asahi's POV. Context may make it difficult to read as a standalone piece.

Summary
But right then, standing in the darkness of their living room with only the yellowed beams of streetlights streaking in through the windows, Rin Matsuoka glowed with earnest, beaming with so much unabashed happiness that he seemed to create starlight of his own.
Haru suddenly couldn’t speak, couldn’t even breathe, for the sight in front of him was overwhelming.
In between the last snowfall of winter and the first blush-pink blooms of spring, it dawns on Haruka Nanase that he may be in love.

Summary
Hiyori is on his best behavior. He gets to know other people. He doesn’t make trouble, even when an old acquaintance resurfaces to try him. And he's sure to implode as quietly as possible, because the only thing worse than driving Ikuya away is dragging him down with him. Can he make the most of this last chance and learn to be a true friend to Ikuya before Ikuya gives up on him?
Meanwhile, Ikuya is confused, and starting to wonder if he’s cursed. He's finally trying to get to know Hiyori for real, so why does he seem further away than ever?

Summary
“How was your day?” Natsuya asks, slurring through his words.
“It was alright,” Nao says simply. He wants to say that it would be better if Natsuya were home, but he doesn’t.
“What about you? How was your day?” Nao says instead.
Natsuya hums for a minute. “I was on a plane for most of it. Airplanes are too crowded.”

Summary
He accepts the small airline cup and the miniature package of cookies the man slips in with it, even though he’s not hungry, setting them down on his otherwise empty tray.
“Thanks,” he mumbles, which causes the siblings to remember their manners.
“Thank you!” they chorus in unison, and Haru wonders if that’s a sibling thing or just a side effect of living together their whole lives, because Rin and Kou still pull that off without even trying.
He’s nervous, for some reason, about seeing Rin, despite the fact that they’d seen each other in Iwatobi less than forty eight hours ago. Maybe it’s the fact that they’ll be together in a different country, or something like that. Haru tries to remember what it felt like last time, when he and Rin came here together, but he can’t pull the feeling from his mind.Or: If you thought Rin was over-reactive, try Haru when he has a crush, because apparently his brain doesn't know how to handle it.
