    Summary

    “You're asking this knowing everything,” Maru says. “The pressure of your clan. The scrutiny it will put on both of us.”

    “Yes."

    “And knowing,” Maru continues, his voice wavering, “That my life will never truly be my own. That as a warrior, I belong to my people in a way Earthlings don’t ask of their leaders.”

    “Yes,” Tsurugi says again, softer still.

    Maru’s eyes burn. He reaches out and cups Tsurugi’s face.

    “You chose me anyway.”

    Tsurugi leans into his touch without hesitation.

    “There was never a choice.”

    ⟡ 5 years after the Simurians arrive on Earth, Tsurugi and Maru enjoy a rare morning all to themselves.

    They have learned the hard way that, as important representatives for their people, maintaining coexistence demands more from them and their relationship than they'd anticipated.

    But this morning is all their own, a time for normalcy and plans for the future.

    Summary

    Abandoned by his parents, Megumi Fushiguro survives through sheer stubbornness, stolen food, and the aid of his shadows. He doesn't trust easily, because why would he?, but he's determined to live long enough to find his father and kick his ass.
    Enter Gojo Satoru: obnoxious, powerful, and apparently someone who knows his deathbeat father. He claims he wants to help and though Megumi doesn't really buy it, Gojo is determined to aid him anyway.

    (Or in which Tsumiki’s mother leaves behind only the child that wasn’t hers, and Gojo Satoru finds himself trying to earn the trust of a boy who’s never known safety, and decides to raise him anyway.)

    Summary

    Maru pushes himself off of him, and falls on his back next to him. Tsurugi's vision blurs, the world dissolving, until it's just the two of them. Laying on the ground like open wounds. 

    “Shut up, Maru. Don’t make me regret not killing you.”

    “As if you could have,” Maru says. His face turned to the stars above. And for a moment Tsurugi wonders what Maru is looking for every time he looks up into the vast darkness of the night sky irritated with stars.

    Tsurugi exhales. “You—You still haven’t realised it, have you?”

    Maru turns to face him. A confused look on his face. The way the stars reach down to sparkle in his eyes, to lighten the dark shadows that have come to settle into his hair, makes Tsurugi’s heart flutter against his chest. He doesn’t look away. Not now, not ever.

    “I might not be able to take you out in a fight,” there is a pause in his words, as if it could make the gravity of what he is about to say less frightening. “But I could have slit your throat the second you passed out.”

    “Then why haven’t you?”

    or Whether you come as a lover or an executioner, I am ready to receive you.
