    Summary

    Over a year after Riko's death, Suguru still hasn't found his footing again, even though everyone else seems like they've moved on. He feels like he's being crushed under the weight of everything, with no way out, until he finds himself taking care of a few kids that give him a reason to keep going.

    Canon compliant until right before the mission to Nanako and Mimiko's village.

    Summary

    Yoshiki could accept that his best friend was no longer his best friend, but merely something else. Something that should be inhumane and wrong and filthy, but it would be his. Yoshiki could cope just fine. As long as Hikaru kept looking at him with those bright eyes and did those stupid impressions and promised to come bother him in Tokyo. As long as he greeted him in the mornings before school and they could continue to text about the newest additions of Master Master and Hikaru promised not to leave.

    He didn't care what this version of Hikaru really was. He didn't care. Hikaru's here and he's staying.

    Yoshiki would make sure of it.

    Summary

    "Yer an idiot. Starve then, if ya don't want curry."

    The door didn't fully shut behind Yoshiki after he left. The crack allowed a stripe of light to slice through the otherwise dark room.

    Hikaru turned on his side, toward the door. The light stopped just short of him.

    "Yoshiki..." Hikaru's fingers stretched along the floor. They clasped around the light, the action only illuminating his dirtied knuckles and short nails. The very depths of himself ached with something he was so tired of having to feel. "...I've been starving."

    Summary

    'The passion caused by the great and sublime in nature, when those causes operate most powerfully, is astonishment; and astonishment is that state of the soul, in which all its motions are suspended, with some degree of horror… A mode of terror or pain is always the cause of the sublime.'

    Or, -

     

    "If I come out," Hikaru says, "all the way, you promise you won't be scared of me?"
