    Summary

    “Shut up,” Kou says hoarsely, putting up a finger. “Seriously, shut the fuck up. What are you doing here?”

    Mitsuba giggles and leans in closer, hands folded behind his back. "I wanted to know why you weren't in school,” he admits. “Daikon told me it “wasn't my business” or whatever, as if I'm not School Mystery Number Three and everything's my business. I tried spying on your brother, too, but he just stopped whatever he was saying and stared directly at the mirror I was in like he somehow knew I was in there.” He shudders. “It was so terrifying that I didn't try it again.”

    Kou snorts. “That sounds like Teru, alright. So the natural next step was to come to my house?”

    “Duh,” Mitsuba says, eyes widening slightly with realization. “God, you're sick, aren't you? Why couldn't Daikon just tell me that? Unless… Kou, are you on your deathbed right now?”
    -
    Mitsuba comes to visit Kou when he's unwell, not knowing that there's more to Kou's sickness than meets the eye.

    Summary

    Kou might’ve only met Sousuke's mom once, the longest summer of his life ago, but he remembers her well. Has met her indirectly hundreds of times since- in the shape of Mitsuba’s eyes, the similar way they enunciate their questions. (In the smell of incense, the realisation that there are some things you can never bring back. Kou stares at his untied laces, and hopes he can blame it on his burned up hand when he finds he doesn’t know how to look her in the eye.)

    or; a mother who lost her son and a son who lost his mother find a shoulder to lean on.

    Summary

    Mitsuba takes Kou's hand in his and squeezes it, so tight it almost hurts. “Take me somewhere,” he says, and when he looks at Kou, there's a familiar desperation written across his face. “Anywhere. I want to be distracted. I don't want to think about anything.”

    Kou is understandably terrified of the situation and what might be going on, but he cares about Mitsuba more than he'd ever like to admit. So of course, when he wants something, he'll give it to him.

    “Ok,” he says. “I have an idea of where to take you.”
    -
    Mitsuba's been acting strange lately. Kou takes him out for the day to try and improve his mood.

    A sequel to And I'm Your Man, context not necessarily required.

    Summary

    The night goes like this: wishes on fallen stars. DIY shaved ice on the corner of the rooftop. Brainfreeze. Yugi Amane teaching him how to find Andromeda, held captive at the edge of the horizon. The impossible tower, bent like a question in the dark. Mitsuba’s laughter when he finds that his candy has stained his tongue electric blue.

    And Kou; uncertain why the sound of it makes him feel so unexplainably sad.

    (or; kou doesn't make it out of the painted world in time.)

    AUGHHHHH I've been thinking a lot about the picture perfect arc recently. I'm so happy this fic came out 😭😭😭🙏 I really like how the characters are written and the feeling that I want to keep reading more about them. I can't describe the happiness I felt when I saw the second chapter up when I randomly woke up super early in the morning. The sun is rising when I finish reading it, and I'm just lying there in awe because of how good this was. ACJSHSHSHSH "You really don't care that I'm like this, do you?" I want to do a thousand somersaults just from reading that. This fic just described everything I love about Kou. Yeah, I know the character is like that, but being able to read it in a story such as this one adds so much flavor to it other than the canon. It adds to my delusions and love for a character when other people understand the character better than I do. God, this is such a blessing 🥹
