Summary
The humble room in which they found themselves was filled with the warmth of the summer sun. The season's blessings smiled in their direction. Musashi basked in it, for as long as time would permit him. Moments of peace were scarce when you're still searching for a way back from the front.
Even now, Musashi Miyamoto bleeds.
In moments like this, Baiken’s presence felt like a blessing — not that he'd ever admit to something so silly.

A fucked up love letter to my Sotenbori lover by bantam

Summary
Distancing everyone from the fire that was only as real as his mind made it out to be. But it was strong enough for Kiryu to push others away. He didn't want them to get burned. He always felt distant from people, no matter how loud , how vivid their affections and care were. Sometimes he was so deep in his own little void that it felt like miles and miles away from him, so faint. Sometimes Kiryu just didn't want to waste their time. He knew he'll drown in his head again and will drift away naturally from them. So he just saw all this as him quickening the process. The only person who stayed close was Nishiki. His light was just too bright, sometimes even too overwhelming.
He wondered if Majima was drowning in a void too.
Was he just as lonely?Series

Summary
Seeing Kiryu so animated and happy (as much as a stoic guy as him could be) made his heart swell and his stomach twist in ways that were frightening to Majima. He knew he had some sort of crush on Kiryu from the start, someone who could be tough andd strong and so unbearably adorable at the same time, and a sweetheartwho's ready to help anyone in need? What's there not to like.

Summary
During his search for Shroud, Robert, in a moment of weakness, has a one-night stand with a man he later realizes is none other than Flambae, the arsonist villain he fought almost three years ago. Thinking they will never meet again, Robert moves on, continuing his search for Shroud until he falls right into his trap. After months of coma, his life takes an abrupt turn when he´s recruited to work for the SDN as the dispatcher assigned to the Z-Team, a bunch of former villains who now work as heroes in order to lessen the penalties for their past crimes. It is of course there where Robert once more stands face to face with the fire-wielding man, having to navigate their shared past while trying not to get burned alive.

Summary
Flambae was between his legs, head leaning against his thigh. It was a bit of a tight squeeze for the two of them to be inside the suit, and this was really the only position that worked even with the chest panel open. Not that either of them were complaining, Flambae liked kneeling for Robert when he got tired, and Robert liked having the hero’s body heat so close to him.
Or: more sub!Flambae propaganda, this time with a weird amount of fluff

Summary
One of the main characters - the only surviving witness to a murder - has just woken from a coma. Not only is she entirely cognizant, but the first thing that the subtitles say she asks for is a lawyer.
“What are you fucking giggling about?”
The other person that’s been paying attention is Flambae. He’s right next to Robert on the couch, his arm slung over the top behind his head. One foot is propped up on the other knee, also pointing towards Robert, which has him caged in the corner by the arm rest. It’s probably some fucked-up power move. Robert has been ignoring it just to spite him.
“It’s just not how comas work,” Robert shrugs.
“Right, and you know because you’re a fucking doctor,” Flambae quips back.
“I know because I was in one, asshole.”
------
During a quiet night in, Robert realizes that his coma and injuries aren't common knowledge among Z-Team.
Most of them take the information in stride with jokes aplenty.
Flambae does not.

Summary
Herman is known online in some circles as Mecha-Man’s #1 fan. After Mecha-Man retires, he’s completely devastated until someone dares to ask him why he likes Mecha-Man so much.
Of course, he’d pass away if he knew the person that asked him WAS Mecha-Man. Good thing that the account is anonymous…
