    Summary

    The war in China shot the hearing right out of your left ear, but you never told no one about it. No one ever noticed, anyway. It keeps you up at night, ringing—a certain pounding of the heart that storms up through your neck. Would be nauseating, had nausea found a place in your stone-stomach. Your stone demeanor, thick as brick. It helps the act—not hearing too good helps the stoicism.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Held off on reading this because of the 2nd person POV tag, but I'm glad I did. The simple writing style, combined with the brevity of the text, give the story an easy-to-read flow. Also, the decision to style the dialogue in italics gives a sort of quietude throughout the read (which fits well with the theme of hearing loss). The Kudos/Hits ratio is completely deserved.

    Summary

    The spy mission to Russia is on a short break and Tsukishima is definitely about to have a nice, relaxing time recharging his energy.

    Tsurumi gets slightly woozy at an officer ball, but handles it well and causes absolutely no trouble.
