    Summary

    Killers don’t have plants, a balcony, an address. Killers don’t have nice things like that. They don’t have friends, family. They don’t have a home to come back to every morning. And they don’t have a person to give a set of keys to as a gift, and invitation. A gesture into an internal world so much bigger than good and bad, black and white, killer and saviour.

    ……

    Things move too quickly for Akutagawa and Atsushi to ever communicate, so they are always out of step with each other when it comes to their… situationship. After an intensely intimate hook-up, Atsushi finds a strange set of keys slipped into his bag.

    Update for May 2026: some minor edits to description and chapter count. This is where this fic evolved beyond my initial Big Bang description!

    Summary

    “I thought you’d be a black tea person,” Atsushi says.

    “Hm.”

    “But you chose jasmine.”

    “I choose what suits the hour.” Akutagawa doesn’t look away from the dark sidewalk. “And the company.”

    The umbrella jerks with how hard Atsushi nearly trips over a puddle. He swallows, keeps his hands steady on the handle. The word company sticks with him, warm and fluttering where it shouldn’t.

    atsushi takes a night job at a tea shop and learns about timing, patience, and how the leaves open when treated properly. somewhere along the way, the work becomes something he looks forward to. so does the regular who keeps coming in near closing.

    Summary

    It was still there when he made his way back to his assigned patch. And still there once he’d pulled all the low, creeping weeds from between the thick, woody stems of the lavender bushes.

    “If you are dead, you realize I will pull up this weed,” he muttered to it on his fifth pass.

    It, naturally, did not reply, though whether due to a lack of investment in its chosen home or a lack of vital signs was unclear.

     

    In the aftermath of Aeor, in the Clay Family gardens, Essek encounters, speaks to, and has a mild existential crisis over, a bee.
