    Summary

    Because, it was everything they’ve ever wanted. It was the reason behind every move they made. The reason the Calamity went to the underworld and back for it - quite literally - and fought against every type of man, woman, and beast to secure it. It was what Yato risked their lives for, what kept Yato awake at night slaving over maps and puzzles, and the very reason the captain and his calamity came to be.

    In which a captain returns home to take his bride.

    Summary

    The furthest her memory goes, is sudden existence, gently held in a calloused hand. She is a bow, carved and curved in an elegant sweep of deep lacquered bamboo, with exactly seven, glittering gold arrows tipped in obsidian black. Her bowstring is a vibrant red, and as her master pucks the edge of it with careful fingers, she feels, in some visceral, instinctual way, that she is to obey, protect—die for her master. With a whisper, she is pushed and pulled in a bright shine of light, and left blinking in disorientation as she discovers that she is standing, that she has feet, a body, a spirit, a name.

    “Kichi,” her master says her name, hand outstretched and lips pulled into a soft, knowing smile. “You may call me Father.”

    —In which Hiyori is pulled to the far shore, and bound to a master with a name.

    Summary

    Chuuya ends up conducting the meeting with a three month old baby in his arms. If his subordinates are confused by the smaller mirror of Chuuya, they do well to hide it. Kouyou laughs at him from behind the silk sleeve of her kimono, Dazai laughs openly, and Chuuya thinks he sees a flash of silver as Dazai’s phone is tucked out of sight. There’s bound to be at least ten pictures of him and Aya on that phone, if Chuuya cares to check.
