    Summary

    Komaeda's skin was slick with sweat, mattress soaked where he’d left an ovular imprint. Salt air brushed beneath his nose, lip dripping over something chapped. His mouth was open, panting, a cold sport’s drink in his hands, wrists dangling over the edge of the dock.

    Sometimes it feels like his skin weeps for him. Like *that’s* why lymphoma causes the sweats. Almost poetic. His legs shake, the chronic pain ramping, and he breathes the Pacific air through his nose and imagines morphine through an IV drip as he counts down from ten. By the time he realizes the laughter has become crying, he can’t stop. There’s casino music in his head.

    ...

    Komaeda's been alone so long he forgets what its like to have anyone around to hear him cry.

    Hinata hears the story behind some of Komaeda's belief system, and Komaeda gets more than he gambled for.

    (Written by someone with lymphoma.)

    Summary

    “One more word and I’m going to drive us both off a cliff,” Hinata deadpanned.
    “Well, I would probably survive it. Ultimate Lucky Student and all.” Komaeda tilted his head. “But if you really do want to kill me, I’m sure we can find a way to make it happen!”

    On the way back from the third-year class trip to Hokkaido, the bus happened to leave two students behind: a tag-along Reserve Course boy who, as always, wasn’t quite sure how he kept getting himself into these situations, and an enigmatic young man who was beginning to feel very, very cheated by his luck.
    Now, if Hajime Hinata wants to get back to Tokyo, he’s going to have to face a hotwired car, 900 miles of open road, and ten days stuck with Nagito Komaeda.

    Summary

    There is a recurring dream that always comes to Trunks when his sleep is restless and fickle, his soldier body ready to rouse awake at a pin’s drop to ward off any impending threat: he is twenty years old, and he is watching his young mother burn alive in the wreckage of a plane, holding her wailing baby to her breast. Trunks blinks, and then he finds himself in that infant’s body, looks up as his skin chars, and finds his father’s face among the flames.

    (Future Trunks is back in the present for good and freed from his multitude of worldly burdens, but some wounds don’t heal so easily.)
