Happy Birthday Akechi Goro!
I offer you a story of domestic fluff with your boyfriend. That’s it. Just a small concentrated dose of fluff, romance and hockey.
Enjoy!(No worries, you don’t have to know anything about hockey to enjoy this. Ren doesn’t either. He just knows how to be a dedicated boyfriend.)

Summary
Even though there’s a storm outside, even though he’s alone on the inn’s second floor where no one can see him, Goro crawls to the windows and draws the curtains. Sweat crests his brow as he holds them shut between tightened, trembling fingers.
Eight months. Eight months since he was mutilated. He hates the reminder of it. He yanks on the curtains, arcing his back as pain burns down his shoulder blades, lips parted in a silent cry.
It’s Joker’s fault.
———
After helping a hungry thief escape the palace gardens, Prince Goro is publicly dewinged and disinherited by his tyrannical father, King Shido. Hurting, resentful, and desperate for an accessible target for his revenge, Goro tracks down the thief-turned-mechanist who unwittingly upended his life.

Summary
Companionship and jealousy went hand in hand for the young detective Akechi Goro and the rebellious thief Amamiya Ren. However, those feelings had far longer to fester than one simple year. Envy leaked from the corners of their hearts, even as inarguable best friends in their childhoods. Be it homework or playing, saving one another from scrapes or loneliness, even spending a night wandering a festival side by side, the taste was always faintly bittersweet. Through the memories stored within precious photographs, the now 28 year old Ren knows that no amount of resentment could ever outweigh the deeply rooted love between them, just like it never had two decades prior. They always had and always would be two halves of one beautiful whole.

Summary
The person nestled in his little alcove, washing up in relative silence save for the occasional hum. There's not even a hint of fog in the air, 'cause for some reason, he prefers cool (or even ice-fucking-cold) showers. 'Helps him keep time' or something. Ren has other theories, though.
That person is his rival, his roommate, his boyfriend, his soulmate in more ways than one- Goro Akechi. Many, many words can be used to describe him, depending on who you ask.
Goro would (and has) call[ed] himself 'quick and efficient' in the shower, among far less charitable names.
Ren would call him 'a fun target to mess with', among a sea of sentiment.
