    Summary

    “They tortured you,” Eiji says, his voice hardly above a whisper.

    “Eiji, I mean it--it looks about a million times worse than it really is.  I bruise like a peach.  Always have.”

    Eiji’s expression changes slightly, from pain to puzzled curiosity.

    “You bruise like a peach?” he repeats, as if trying the phrase on for size.  “I’ve never heard that expression before.”

    Ash’s shoulders relax without him meaning to.  It’s much easier to discuss silly idioms than it is to watch Eiji worry himself on account of Ash.

    “Yeah, you know, because peaches are so soft that they bruise easy.  It’s just an English saying.”

    Eiji smiles.

    “It makes sense,” he says, nodding.  “And I like it.  It fits, for you to be a peach.  You’re both so sweet.”

    Ash can’t help it--he barks out a sharp, startled laugh.

    “I’m a lot of things, Eiji.  Sweet isn’t one of them.”

    In which wounds are treated, in more ways than one.

    Summary

    It’s peaceful in the blind, quiet, still. It smells like mold and forgotten beers and a whiff of cigarettes, but the wind that blows through the cracks in the boards is crisp and fresh. There’s a word for it, Daryl knows, for the smell before rain. His earth science teacher had said it one day. Daryl’d written it down and then the teacher had pretended to keel over with shock. A Dixon, taking notes? Just for that Daryl doesn’t want to remember the word, doesn’t want to like it. But he remembers anyway. Petrichor.

    He’s thinking of this, half drowsy on top of Merle’s stained sleeping bag, when they come.

    Summary

    The first time they meet, Suguru and Satoru do not like each other. Arrogant, cocky, insufferable, they think. Despite the smirks Shoko gives Suguru, or the sighs Yaga gives Satoru, they do not like each other.

    Until a mission changes that.

    Summary

    At twenty-eight, Gojo's reality is nothing like he could have ever imagined. He's a divorced, caretaker of two, and is barely keeping it together. To say the least, he's given up at the happy ending he once imagined.

    When an old friend reenters Gojo's life, it might just be enough to turn it all around.

    Summary

    Getou realizes, as Satoru rubs at his eyes and blinks them vigorously after a training session one day, that his eyes hurt him more than he’s willing to let on. Which, Getou thinks, is completely predictable of his idiot best friend who he is apparently cursed to care about.

    Or, how Gojo got his glasses.

    Summary

    A mission gone horribly wrong leaves Keith badly wounded and team Voltron cut off from their lions. Normally, the Red Lion would be there in a heartbeat, if she was still talking to him that is.

    “Wait, no, no, no, no,” someone babbles anxiously, rushing over to him and gently but firmly forcing his hand back down to his side. It falls limply into the grass, uselessly skimming through the thick brush just like the rest of him. “That’s the only thing keeping you from bleeding out right now, removing it would be very, very bad.”

    Summary

    Every evening they walk home together, Kuro smelling of salt and suntan lotion, Kenma’s hands sore from scooping ice cream all day, and it feels nice. Peaceful.

    He’s glad Kuro came, after all.

    ((During the two weeks he spends manning his uncle's ice cream booth on the coast, Kenma decides that maybe he likes his best friend back, after all))

    Summary

    The Wastes are all Keith has ever known.

    For nineteen years, the arid desert is all he's seen of the world; his only reprieve from monotonous existence being his father's fantastical tales of heroic deeds and perilous battles among the stars. He can't help but feel drawn to those stars—their beckoning voices a constant tickle in the back of his mind. He dreams of following their call to adventure, but as the years pass, dreams dwindle and concede to obligation. What were once fantasies of purpose and fulfillment wither away entirely, and Keith has officially resined himself to a life of empty nothingness.

    Until one day, fate literally comes crashing into Keith's life, and he is swept up into an epic tale of his own.

    Summary

    Despite being an up-and-coming inspector for the Musutafu police, Bakugou is always under the oppressive thumb of Chisaki Kai. Solving a series of grisly murders by day, he's forced to do Chisaki's bidding by night; working under the table to rid the city, and the police force, of mafia influence.

    When an order to assassinate a member of Usagi no Akuma, a notorious mafia group, takes an unprecedented turn, Bakugou is forced to make a choice. He's thrust into the middle of a dangerous triangle between the police force, the Hellflame Mafia, and Usagi no Akuma, and all paths seem to lead to destruction.

    Summary

    In the position Dabi’s in, sprawled out on his back with his dirty boots hanging off the end of the sofa, Hawks can make out the length of his body even beneath the coat. As he noticed last time they met, Dabi is slim, scrawny even, the figure of a man who hasn’t known the luxury of three balanced meals a day in quite some time. Perhaps he’s just naturally lean, perhaps he’s on some sort of drug.

    Perhaps he’s sick.

    Summary

    Sakaar is a planet with plenty of recreational substances to use and abuse. Which is fine, sort of. The problem comes when you leave.

    Or, the one where a problem Loki didn't really think about becomes a problem Loki really has to think about. Or, drug withdrawal in space.

    Summary

    Because, after all, Dazai leaving meant Chuuya finally had some quiet moments to himself, didn't he?

    But Chuuya knew he was just lying to himself.

     

    Or: Chuuya deals with Dazai's abandonment a lot worse than Dazai expected. It all builds up in the container until it finally spills over, because after all, how much can a container hold when there's far too much to be spilled?

    Summary

    “Careful. Your left side needs stitches,” the brunette cuts in sharply before turning his head away with a scoff. “Oh, don’t give me that look, Chuuya. You won’t bleed to death.” A pause, mouth widening in offense at the redhead’s narrowed eyes. “Who do you take me for? Of course I bandaged it.”

    Chuuya glares, winces again.

    Well, fuck.

    Maybe he overdid it.

     
    Or Dazai and Chuuya have thoroughly unacknowledged ways of being there for each other. Today it just happens to involve talk of princesses and hands combing through red hair.

    Summary

    Maybe that’s because his insides feel like snakes, trying to slither their way out of his mouth, pulling along all the blackness that’s still festering in him. He wants to drop to the ground and scream, tell Sam that he feels like a wound barely scabbed over. He’s not healing, he’s just making himself more palatable so he can be of use.

    S1E4 compliant. Spoilers for this episode.

    Love markings are a human evolutionary quirk. When one person loves another and they touch skin-to-skin, an influx of hormones leaves them with a coloured marking permanently etched onto their skin.

    Summary

    Dazai takes the time to check in on Chuuya. What he finds isn't what he wants.
    ____________
    “He’s hurt, isn’t he?” Dazai asks, although it’s not really a question. Chuuya’s gait the other day had been wrong, wrong in a way that wasn’t caused by a night of wonky sleeping or a stubbed toe.

    Kouyou hesitates, but a look at Dazai’s face seems to tell her she’s not going to get away without having this conversation. At least, not if she doesn’t want to alert Chuuya to his presence and get him riled up.

    “He is.”
