    Summary

    'One ungloved hand was lifted and Alhaitham flexed it once, then balled it into a fist so tight Kaveh wondered what he imagined crushing so completely within his unrelenting grasp. He wished silently, with all the odd longing and painful reverence he could muster, if it could be him.'

    Kaveh is convinced his affection can only end in madness, Alhaitham only stokes the flames.

    Summary

    "A soldier has no business in my shop. And didn't I say I have a right to decline for reasons you don't need to know."

    "Personal reasons, I assume."

    Failing to quell the irritations building up over the past hectic days, the officially awoken mechanic took it out on a trash bin. The favorite target didn't make as much racket as other hardware in his shop would, and didn't hurt anybody. Maybe hurt himself, but nobody.

    Kaveh's pretty face wrinkled in pain.

    The battered bin helplessly leans on the table leg, revealing an unsealed envelope crumpled with passion. Their back-and-forth correspondence heavily blanketed a debate that belonged more to unseemly bar encounters than a business negotiation, had professional pleasantries been omitted. Letters signed "Alhaitham" probed endlessly, and this nature of his cemented Kaveh’s confidence in the sender's identity.

    "Do you think I'm stupid? Stop trying to get into my head."

    Alhaitham wants to get his automail done by Kaveh. Also meet Mehrak, the mechanic's dog!

    Summary

    Kaveh rushes to pick himself up from the floor, bracing himself on the bedside table when his knees start wobbling. “Cyno! Good, you’re here, uh—“ He winces and rubs the back of his head. “Okay, wait…why are you– whatever, that doesn’t matter. So this means that we didn’t get kidnapped last night. Great, that’s…one question answered, at least.”

    Cyno looks between him and Tighnari, raising an eyebrow. “Anything else you want to comment on?”

    “I’m almost afraid to ask,” Kaveh laughs, strained and panicked.

    “I’m not,” Tighnari says groggily from the bed. “Can you please tell us what happened?”

    “You two got married last night.”

    Summary

    Kaveh sways forward; the grip tightens. The coffee warms. The sun rises on the desert’s unforgiving sand.

    “Alhaitham,” he sighs. “Alhaitham, I want to go home.”

    It’s a truth, one Kaveh normally buries so deep it cannot even remember what it is like to see the light. But alcohol has made him soft and the familiar smell renders him weak.

    He wants to go home.

    He always wants what he cannot have.

    Flowers and sand. Paper and turpentine.

    - - -

    When Kaveh's heats reappear after years without one, Kaveh is unprepared for just how strong his need can be. It's a good thing he's not alone any longer.

    Summary

    All it takes to ruin the careful equilibrium of a non-relationship is a handmade cup, a pixelated screenshot, and Megumi's family.

    Summary

    Proper scenting is often stigmatically reserved only for those who bear the most intimacy with each other. Close friends, sometimes family, and definitely lovers.

    They are none of those things. Not friends, never family, and certainly the farthest from lovers.

    ...

    They're different than they used to be. Scenting, once, was a second thought, an exchange unnegotiated. Now, all it does is make Kaveh spiral.

    Summary

    Dazai always knows too much, and too fast, whether it be for the better or for the worse. But for Chuuya, the realization comes slower, gradually, clumsily over the years.

    Summary

    Vanitas always takes a second too long to respond to his own name.

    -

    Then, like some kind of angel, Vanitas appeared. With the reckless abandon of a man possessed, Vanitas charged.

    To the untrained eye, it was an act of unstinting heroism. The life of one to save the many.

    Vanitas, in that moment, was not just a name; he was a symbol of selflessness.

    But Noé saw it for what is truly was.

    A suicide.

     

    -

    Or, 8k+ words of non-linear, rambling storytelling where Noé and Vanitas go to find a curse-bearer, get drunk, share a bed, confess their feelings, get hurt, and kiss. Not in that order.

    Summary

    Predictions have the capability to lead to ruin. Placing too much faith in the prognosis of your mind creates a newfound kind of dependence on yourself that when torn down will result in your own sweet, tantalizing annihilation.

    Fyodor could predict the actions of anyone, but he could not predict the way Nikolai would make him feel. He could not even begin to comprehend it when his lips began to taste like a poem, like religion, like the very antithesis of sin. And he could not do anything but allow himself to fall asunder.

    Summary

    “Four months from now will be the seven year anniversary of when you and Osamu Dazai released your hugely successful first and only album Double Black and its diamond single Corruption. After performing with Dazai earlier this year, are you planning anything special to celebrate?”

    “Corruption is insanely overrated, and I would prefer to never hear Dazai’s voice for the rest of my fucking life.”
