Summary
As the child grows, as heartbreak after heartbreak shatters his soul, as the dark of his cupboard digs into the ice in his chest, the little shard finds itself sinking deeper and deeper.

This changes things.

The sword in his hand is not Backbiter. It is celestial bronze and light. Warm and familiar, comforting without the sharp edge of malice he's learned to live with.

Summary
"I was worried," the man repeated. "I didn't know how to explain myself. How to say things right to prove who I was and how I was here. I... Should have had more faith in how brilliant you've always been." The words and smile, the trusting warmth in his eyes, it's like a sucker punch to Kisuke who has never been the subject of anyone's open faith and belief in his abilities or really, himself as a person.

Summary
They spent most of their lives chasing after each other, never quite realising that through all those years, they never really had the chance to just be. To grow up together and actually know each other. They had lived their entire lives in love with the idea of each other. On memories and dreams and the symbols they've become in each other's minds and each other's hearts that when they finally meet, it took too long to realise that none of their pieces quite fit.

Summary
You grew up hearing stories of a time long forgotten where some humans were born special and mighty creatures of all shapes and sizes roamed the world.
As you grew older, you dismissed your grandmother's stories the way your mother did eventually. The way your father always told you to. Tales passed down through the generations, fantastical true, but nothing more than that. Dreams of a power that resonated with who we are as people, singing with the strength of our souls.
You still remember your grandmother's words. "Never forget the magic in your soul, my dear. Stay true to who you are and when you need it the most, it will shine through for you."
You remembered hearing it as a little girl, wide eyed and full of hope as you dream of magic. You remember the bitter taste they left in your mouth as the years went by. As life did what it did best and started tearing down all your hopes and dreams one by one.
Then of course the monsters came.

Summary
It's a tangle of very specific things that happen just right that leads all of them to how they are. Alive. Bruised, battered, scarred, and irreversibly changed but alive still. Hanging on by the skin of their teeth.
A bird whose wings are clipped cannot fly away if taken from its cage. A cat whose claws are dulled cannot fight back if threatened. So afraid of the danger she would find, they removed Tsuna's only way of fighting back.

Summary
Sometimes souls were too bright, too strong, too great to be cleaned by the cycle of rebirth. Sometimes souls would be twined too closely to properly let each other go. And sometimes, sometimes Fate meddled just enough to change what would have been a never ending cycle of anguish into an eternity those deserving of it can enjoy.
Naruto hadn't expected to wake up again. Not after bleeding out on a battlefield in a dying world with her team by her side, the man she had loved dying months ago to save her only for her to throw away his sacrifice. She had not expected to remember. Nor did she expect to find him again.
It turns out, life may not be too cruel, after all.

Summary

Some souls cling tighter. Some souls are born with steel in their hands and fire in their hearts and they live as they died. Fighting. Reborn, fragments of their old selves start to bleed back. Half forgotten dreams and echoes of something that we know should be. It could stay that way for the rest of one's life.
Until something tips that delicate balance.
