    Summary

    Eyes flickering back to the unexpected company Satoru had found himself, he watched Suguru’s lips curve up into a slow smile. A crooked smile. A nice smile, Satoru thought. ‘Yeah, I can snowboard.’

    ‘Yeah? Then why the skis?’

    Satoru shrugged, because it was simple really. ‘Faster.’

    Now it was Suguru’s turn to snort, animated by his amusement in a way Satoru hadn’t yet seen. ‘Dude,’ he snickered, peering at him across the empty seat. ‘Skiing isn’t faster.’

    And that sounded like the challenge Satoru had been waiting for all week.

    Satoru finds his unexpected Valentine in the form of a slightly eccentric stranger on a snowboard.

    Summary

    Sandalwood, cardamom—the lingering scent of blood clinging to his clothes. Iris, violet—his tender stare shining with barely unrestrained desire.

    The scent of years past and something Gojo can no longer touch. Of a past where he thought things would be different, a person no longer existent— of two people no longer existent, paths deviated and separated.

    And inside that hidden dark box of desire, the one Gojo hides and turns away from, he yearns for him like nothing else.

    Summary

    It’s the same now. His contempt for the system that offers up shamans like sacrifices makes him eye non-sorcerers with suspicion, but the connection he shares with Satoru makes him laugh into his mug. The way he talks, the way he smiles. The way he sometimes chews with his mouth open, and the way he teases Satoru. The way he looks out for him, when he forgets to look out for himself. He isn’t the same person he was eleven years ago, and neither is Satoru, but then again, are they not? How else could Satoru explain how their conversation settles into an easy rhythm, cradled by a sense of familiarity? At the sight of the man sitting before him, his heart cheers in recognition, and his soul settles in peace.

    A story about power and who holds it, life and who saves it, lessons and who learns them, and second chances and who gets them.

    Summary

    Gojo Satoru is one of Japan's most celebrated literary writers. At least, that’s what his publisher tells him.

    Geto Suguru is his book publicist, which is slightly inconvenient as he’s also: 1) his high school best friend who left him before graduation and 2) the love of his life.

    When Suguru hands in his notice, Satoru makes it everyone’s problem.

    Summary

    Satoru’s gaze fixes on him. He draws in a deeper, more steadying breath, and says, like he’s confessing a secret, “Two weeks ago I thought I’d spend the rest of my life alone. I was resigned to the fact all I’d ever have of you was the memory.”

    Then he’s reaching for him, touching his fingers to his cheeks, caressing his jaw with the same tenderness he always has, even when they were teenagers, even before they’d known what it truly meant to love each other.

    “But you’re right here,” he sighs, closing his eyes. “You’re with me. All of you.”

     

    Or, A series of one-shots following Satoru and Suguru's reunion.
