    Summary

    Five minutes ago Hikaru was flipping through a magazine, stretched out on Yoshiki's bed while Yoshiki sat on the floor watching something on his phone. A normal afternoon - right up until Yoshiki turned around, frowning in that way he does when he has a question he's not sure he'll like the answer to. Yoshiki gives Hikaru that kind of look a lot, these days.

    "Where do things go when you put 'em inside you? Impurities and stuff?"

    And Hikaru shrugged, and said, "I dunno. If you really wanted to find out I guess you'd have to look for yourself."

    Summary

    There, sitting on one of the corners, was his Hikaru, his undressed back facing Yoshiki. Then— slowly, as if every movement caused him unimaginable pain, he twisted his body until he was able to look at him with a crooked smile. Yoshiki’s breath hitched in his throat, at long last allowing a broken whimper to leave the opening of his mouth.

    "Yoshiki”, Hikaru’s rough voice blossomed, uncertain. His left iris trembled to allow the escape of more iridescent tendrils, further desfiguring himself and making his half-naked figure appear much, much smaller. “You’re here.”


    One month had passed and they hadn’t talked about it. Or, well, perhaps it was better to say that Hikaru kept trying to mention their fateful Valentine’s Day, and Yoshiki kept evading the subject. Before they could even begin to sew their cracks, Hikaru is taken away.

    Yoshiki struggles with how to define what they are. Hikaru thinks they don’t need to. Together, they mend one another with patience, care and lacquer powdered with gold.

    Summary

    Hikaru doesn’t get it. He doesn’t get any of it.

    Some days, it feels like Yoshiki just wants as much distance between himself and Hikaru as he can get. Other days, it’s like being away from Hikaru would kill him. Hikaru can’t tell what’s gonna set Yoshiki off or not, and it’s not like looking at the memories would help. He got moody like this before, but only when Hikaru tried to talk about girls or Yoshiki leaving one day, and never for as long as he does now.

    Is he doing something wrong?

    “Hey, Yoshiki?” he calls ahead. “What d’ya reckon we should do for my birthday?”


    Or; ‘Hikaru’ celebrates his sixteenth birthday. Hikaru doesn’t.

    Summary

    you know what you wanted yet you expected him to return home drenched and shivering. you expected it, and you expected to scold him for disobeying, for putting himself in danger, for any reason you can find to make a leashed beast of the fear gnawing at and rattling your bones.

    but you didn't expect him to return so cold.

    Summary

    "Do you want to try feeling inside me again?" Hikaru asks, eyes bright.

    "Would I learn anything new, doing it again?" Yoshiki asks a little skeptically. He has tried it twice already, and if anything, he understands Hikaru less.

    "Probably not," Hikaru says, but he hasn't moved, and his eyes remain fixed on Yoshiki.

    Yoshiki knows that it would be colossally stupid. He's messing with things he doesn't understand, and he doesn't really need Kurebayashi's warnings to know it's dangerous for himself and those around him. He worries that with each brush against whatever lies beneath Hikaru's skin, he loses more of his humanity, that someday he'll be corrupted beyond recognition.

    And yet, a part of him wants.

    In which Yoshiki takes a break from research to try touching Hikaru again.
