    Summary

    Norton Campbell is (trying to be) a normal teenager. He's doing well in his classes, he's eager to learn (most of the time), he has some acquaintances, he's even in multiple clubs. Unfortunately, that doesn't stop him from attracting the weirdest people to him. Which also includes Orpheus, who somehow ended up becoming his closest friend.

    A friend is fine. A friend is acceptable. If only it stayed that way.

    It's alright. If he ignores his feelings, maybe they will go away.

    It's just nortpheus high school au :3 except everyone is a little weird, some more than others

    Summary

    “You should be more careful with this,” Akira murmured, tapping the sharp tip of the mask with one finger. It matched his gloves perfectly. “You’ll take someone’s eye out.”

    The tip of Akechi’s boot pressed into Akira’s as he shifted, raising himself to his full height, shoulder tassel brushing against Akira’s jacket. Red eyes lingered on the mask now spinning slowly between Akira’s hands.

    “Only to those careless enough to get too close.”

    “Well.” Akira nudged Akechi’s shoulder, meeting the eyes that flitted up. “Good thing I’m known for being reckless.”

    Slender fingers brushed against his own, easing the mask out of Akira’s grip. Akechi hummed, a wonderfully rich noise rumbling in his chest. “Then I suppose you only have yourself to blame if you get hurt.”

    Akira was fine. Their plan had worked. No repercussions. Now all that was left was to take down the bastard who had put him in that room to be drugged and beaten in the first place. Nothing they hadn't done before. Easy. Right?

    Summary

    Nobody else seemed to worry about the nobody always ranging from sixth to ninth place, but Akechi wasn't fooled. He'd noticed the other’s intricate jumps and step sequences. Not to mention his increasing attempts at the quad Axel. And he wouldn't have any of it.

    --

    Or the one where Akechi's a world-renowned figure skater with multiple titles under his belt, and Akira's a seemingly irrelevant nobody catching up to him fast.

    Summary

    Joker replied by thrusting a travel cup of coffee towards Crow. “It’s a little cold. I hope you don’t mind.”

    Crow gave a small wave. “No thank you. I’m picky about my coffee.”

    “I know someone who also says they’re picky about their coffee. They say they don’t like sweets either, but I’ve been sneaking sugar in their coffee for the past week, and they told me that I’ve been making their coffee better than usual lately.” Joker twisted the cap off the cup and took a sip.

    “Glad to know that you openly admit to poisoning people.”

    “Yeah, and what are you gonna do about it? Arrest me?”

    Summary

    “I’m confused. What are you trying to say?” Akira shuffles a little on his knees, subconsciously moving a little farther away. He doesn't miss how Maruki hones in on that movement and sighs.

    Dejectedly, Maruki responds, “I care about Akechi too. He has so much pain in his heart, so much grief and anger, it’s so horrible everything he’s gone through. He deserves to have a good life. But Akira… is it fair that he hurts you because of it?”

    What?

    That might as well have been a death sentence.

    or: akira is dangling from a ledge and the only person who can save him can't stand him. funny how that works
