    Summary

    “You’re not a bird, Sunday,” Mr Yang breaks the silence. Sunday’s eyes flick to him just in time to see him shake his head, his brow furrowed. “Nor are you flightless.”

    “Aren’t I?” he retorts. It’s too late to back out now that he’s started the conversation, now that he’s laying himself bare in front of the one person he respects most on this train. “What is it that differentiates me from an injured dove, Mr. Yang? My body might be fine, but to say the same of my mind –”

    “You’re not an injured dove either,” Mr. Yang cuts in, firm. Final. His gaze lifts from the tea, eyes blazing with something Sunday can’t name. “And even if you were, you would’ve gotten better with help.”

    Or: Five times Sunday floundered while trying to find his place on the Astral Express and the one time he felt right at home.

    Summary

    “Satoru?” The word rings, fuzzy in his ears as it whines like tinnitus, familiar and heart stopping.

    ‘I’m dead.’ He can’t even hear his own thoughts over the loudness of the world, staggering where he stands, eyes still fixated on the sky, on the sun. ‘I’m dead, I died, I felt my heart stop, this can’t be, it can’t-’

    “Hey,” it comes again, a little more urgent than before, a little closer, another hammer to his ears and all the noise shrieking behind his eyes. He recoils hard enough to go stumbling as a hand reaches for him, covered in flesh rather than empty bone, tan and recognizable. Unbelievable.

    There’s something wet trickling from his nose. Bile stings on the back of his tongue. The words dissolve into the rest of the white noise as he stares up at the blue of the sky, and tries to remember if he’d ever had a hallucination as bright as this.

    ‘I have to be dead,’ he thinks. Somehow, he isn’t.

    Or: Gojo Satoru goes back in time. He makes a couple of changes for the better.

    Summary

    “That’s… This can’t be real, right?” Yuji’s prior confidence had left him. “And even if it was, it’s never that easy. Knowing my shitty luck, I’ll just end up making it worse. We shouldn’t screw around here unless we have to.”

    “While there is wisdom to be had in your caution, don’t paint yourself in such a negative light.” Choso wondered if Sukuna was to blame for the sudden shift in his attitude. The curse had been silent since Yuji had reclaimed his control over his body, but that was only from the perspective of an outside observer. There was no telling what Sukuna was up to while hidden in a place Choso’s ears couldn’t reach.

    “Not even if it’s true?”

     

    ♦ Yuji and Choso separated from the rest of their makeshift team while on their way to meet Master Tengen, find themselves displaced eleven years in the past. How this came to be is uncertain, but with the opportunity to prevent the disasters of their time from ever transpiring at their fingertips, how can they sit idly by and wait for the world to catch up to the grim reality they left behind?

    Summary

    Freminet holds his vision close to his chest, shoulders slumped, eyes cast downward. “You have a daughter.” How could a man like this care for a child? “I wasn’t aware.”

    The Doctor turns his back to him and strides over to his desk, riffling through papers. “For a long time, I tried to ignore it. But she must be dying now, and this— this disturbance is getting in the way of my work.” He shakes his head.

    “Touching.”

    “Don’t get used to it. I don’t care much for children.”

     

    Freminet is sent to find Il Dottore's runaway daughter, distorted as that word may be. He usually completes missions with mechanical precision, so what could go wrong now? Everything, apparently.
