    Summary

    He expects to see nothing adorning the front porch except a single sunflower in a vase. He knows this because he had had it delivered from the Yamanaka’s shop as a welcome-back gift. Or maybe as a way of saying, “See there’s still beauty here, life, something worth coming back to.”
    What he didn’t expect was that the flower had actually been planted in the soil and was standing proudly in front of the house, basking in the last kisses of the dying light. The sight makes him stop in his tracks: the image of Sasuke devoting time to find a correct spot for the plant, giving it a home, is almost laughable, and still. It’s sweet when he pictures it.
    Sasuke crouched on the dug-up ground, his kimono dirty with fresh soil. Naruto smiles, something small.

    (He got pretty good at imagining his friend where he’s not)

    or

    Naruto deals with himself in the aftermath of the war, looking for comfort in the only way he knows how.

    Summary

    “You could have died.” Anger is all over the other man’s face, sculpting every bit of his features, carving deep shadows on his troubled expression.

    “You seemed too eager to.”

    The cook scoffs loudly at that, “What’s that supposed to mean?”, he snarls mean.

    Zoro tries to lift himself up a little to face this but the simple movement proves to be harder than expected and he’s barely straightened when a sharp pain passes him through as a nail, a nasty sting that makes him moan in pain clutching at his side. He hears the clank of the ashtray’s glass hitting the bedside table and then the cook is there, a hand behind his shoulders while the other adjusts the pillows so that they provide better support to his back.

    Zoro looks up at the man as he’s working on fixing him up; brow furrowed, mouth closed shut, he reminds him of a child who’s trying so hard to be serious just to prove he’s not sad.

    Four times Zoro got a little too close to death for Sanji's likings and one time they were in it together

    Summary

    But the more he shared the more he feared his shadow would eventually grow bigger, in a way that it would be impossible not to see. And Zoro’s eyes had an intensity that made him feel seen in a way that was just a bit too uncomfortable, a bit too painful. So he didn’t join him on deck some nights, as the coward he was. He knew the other would wait for him in vain.

    But Zoro’s eyes also felt like the night sky, in those depths black holes that could swallow him whole and garlands of stars to grab onto.

    Summary

    Ah, that’s it. Dazai’s newly acquired weapon, the one he perfected during his time at the Agency. Because it can be nothing other than that, can it? The display of sincerity, so uncharacteristic of him, the straightforwardness of it all sending chills down Chuuya’s skin, rippling, sharp things that threaten to cut him up any second.
    But why does it look so real then? He can almost hear nostalgia singing the jingle of a game left abandoned on a shitty play station while slender fingers comb through his messy hair.

    or Dazai and Chuuya meet after the cannibalism affair has been taken care of. What's to come is still uncertain; Chuuya realizes it as they dance around each other (literally too).

    Summary

    He tries to replay memories in his head, snippets of moments he put away, hidden like a secret, like a wound during a fight, a gash not to look at or else the pain will get to you and you’ll collapse. But he’s frantic now and so he puts himself through it, gritting his teeth, his body completely tense, fists tight. He’s so desperate to recall something other than the ache, something that could hold him back in turn. He will dig until his nails bleed and his skin will peel off finally unveiling something, anything.

    or Gojo feels that something important is slipping through his fingers and desperately tries to hold on tight

    Summary

    Sure he was taught what good manners were. Be frugal in your actions. In case of suffering it is appropriate to help, to offer support if needed. Brief contacts were allowed in some cases of high formality, certain passages of ritual ceremonies.
    Officially though, there wasn’t much room for indulging in the comfort of a simple human contact, none for actively pursuing it.

    Summary

    It was not that up until then Sizhui had been oblivious to Jin Ling’s strengths. 
    It didn’t matter how bravely he saw him fight during night hunts, or how fierce and determined he had looked standing up for himself and his battles, or or or. What struck the young Lan the most was his kindness. 
    He’s aware that Jingyi would probably laugh at him if he regrettably dared to say it aloud.

    or Sizhui reflects on how much they have both grown
