  2. Summary

    Sakura Haruka was born cursed.

    At Furin, he expects that won't be a problem- if he's strong enough, he can keep everyone else away from him. That's why he picked it. But upon arriving, he learns that not only is Furin not what he expected- it's that he might not even be the only one here hiding a secret or two. It's weird... but maybe in a place like this, it's alright to be a monster.

    (or: a wind breaker monster au)

  3. Summary

    Makochi has a problem.

    Specifically, it has a runaway problem- in the form of a scrappy child who refuses to let anyone get close to him. No one knows where Sakura came from, or how he got here- he's wary of people and never sticks around for long. Bofurin has its hands full just trying to wrangle the eleven year old. But with time and effort, maybe they can slowly coax their latest stray into trusting them...

    (or: 11 year old runaway Sakura Haruka finds his way to Makochi, and slowly learns to trust people again.)

  4. Summary

    Sakura Haruka has been straddling two worlds from the day he was born- the child of a bakeneko mother and a human father, left to fend for himself in a world that's hostile to both parts of him. He's never really had a place to belong-

    -at least, not until he arrives in Makochi.

    (or: local bakeneko gets adopted by the entire town- and learns to love himself in the process.)

  5. Summary

    A decade and a half later, Natsume finds himself in the very same shoes his foster father once occupied- staring down a clearly neglected teenage boy, adrift with no place to call his own.

    This time, he knows he can do something about it.

    (or: the one where an adult Natsume adopts Sakura.)

    Summary

    “Oh! There you are, Haru-chan!”

    Sakura’s eyes widened, but the red flush Ren would have expected from a high school student whose mother surprised them at school never appeared. Instead, Sakura’s eyes widened, his mouth slacked, and his face paled.

    “M—mom?” Sakura looked dazed, blinking as if he were waking from a dream.

    Summary

    It’s clear to most—Sakura is a bit stingy with cash. He avoids the vending machines unless he’s desperate—usually on his third day without food, when the gnawing in his stomach is enough to make him woozy and irritable. Kotoha knows the only way to get him to order anything at Pothos is to assure him that it’d be on the house—he’d still drop a few 50-yen coins in the tip jar when she’d have her back turned, though, just to momentarily quell the guilt playing in his ears like a godawful song on repeat.

    Unfortunately, he wasn’t stingy enough.

     

    Or:

    Sakura gets kicked out of his apartment, but it's fine. There are plenty of empty classrooms at Furin, and working part-time at a coffee shop can't be that hard. He'll make enough to rent a new place soon enough. Probably. Hopefully.

    Summary

    Natsume deftly folded the paper, leaving bloodied fingerprints on the back of the thick parchment, and tucked it into his mouth. He clapped his hands, the crisp sound piercing the chill air, as he threw his head back and closed his eyes. The ink began to separate from the paper and flow as if carried away on an unfelt breeze. There was a flash of light, and the shadow was gone. Natsume fell back to his knees, breathing heavily.
    The courtyard fell silent. The icy wind had died down, and the circle etched in the dirt had faded away.
    Then his eyes fluttered open, and he saw the Fujiwaras standing at the gate.
