Summary
🖼️ Illustrated fanfiction 🖼️
Ash Lynx, a foreign student in Tokyo, sought peace when he crossed the ocean, but the nightmares and memories that haunt him have followed, leaving him restless and aimless.
Across the city, Okumura Eiji, the reluctant heir to a powerful yakuza empire, gazes over Tokyo from the rooftop of his father’s building. He feels the suffocating weight of duty, wondering how much longer he can pretend in a world that feels so wrong.
When Ash crosses paths with Shorter Wong, the eccentric leader of a Chinese gang, he’s drawn into a different side of Tokyo—a world brimming with danger, alliances, and the unexpected rush of feeling alive.

Summary
Eiji's grand-mother passed away. In the quiet of a New York night, Ash builds a blanket fort to ease Eiji’s grief. Inside their makeshift hideout, they find a warmth and comfort that words can’t reach.
He finds it hard to believe that the boy next to him—this one, with his brow furrowed and a gummy bear half-dangling from his lips as he concentrates—is the same person that strikes fear into the hearts of so many. A gang leader, dangerous, untouchable. Yet here, under a makeshift roof of blankets and shadows, he’s just... Ash.

Summary
One lazy afternoon, while folding laundry, a simple touch ignites something they've both tried to ignore. Teasing words turn into something more, and in a heartbeat, their lips meet, breaking months of holding back.
“Matching towels? You’ve gotta be kidding me.”
Eiji chuckles, his grin now wide. “Why not? You love pretending you’re not the domestic type... but look at you.” He gestures to Ash’s attempt at folding, then adds, “You’ve been folding your clothes all wrong, by the way.”

Summary
Extreme canon divergence/ AU: What if Eiji never injured himself and therefore never came to the US? The events of Banana Fish still happened, but differently, as Eiji wasn't there to influence them.
Without the injury to slow him down, Eiji Okumura continued to pole vault and eventually won the bronze medal at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics (which actually took place in 2021). Two and a half years later, he finally arrives in New York City. Haunted by feelings of inadequacy, he's ready to give up pole vaulting and create a new life for himself as a photographer. However, the immigration process in the US is long and complicated, and there's no guarantee he'll even be accepted.
Eiji wants a shortcut, and Max Lobo suggests one in the form of a fake marriage to Ash Lynx.

"Insaisissable et mystérieux, il refusait de créer la moindre intimité avec qui que ce soit. Et il avait de bonnes raisons à cela. Dix annnées s’étaient écoulées depuis qu’il avait pris la décision la plus douloureuse de sa vie…" Un univers alternatif où le destin, encore, réunira Ash et Eiji.

Summary
“Beauty needs a witness.”
“So does a testimony.”
Ash gave a laugh at that, the sound throaty and true. “Well,” he breathed. “You're a damn good crime, then.”
Artistically, carnally, lovingly: “You have all of me, Ash.”

Summary
Eiji is leaving, and Ash is not himself.
Bundled up and bitter like a sulking Christmas present, like the pit left behind by a fruit devoured; Ash is not himself, right now. He hasn’t been himself in such a long time he isn’t quite sure what he’s like to begin with, but he just knows that he hasn’t always been like this. This…
Eiji clears his throat. Ash looks down at his feet.
Needy.
On being codependent.

Summary
Max sighs and sets down the paper he’d been reading from, folding it shut on the table near the bed he stood over.
“Your funeral's in two days, kid.”
