    Summary

    “You back with us, Slug?”

    “Yeah... ‘m fine...”

    It was then that Chuuya realized something was off. As an adult Dazai had larger hands but they were now wrapped around the executive's clenched fist. Chuuya’s voice was pitched too high. It could have been due to the sudden onslaught of fatigue that was straining his voice, but he knew all too well his voice always carried a deep tone, gravelly and rough when exhaustion hit.

    No. There was something very off.

    “Good morning, Little Mafioso.”

    ----

    For someone who can remember nothing of their life before the age of seven, navigating through Yokohama as a young boy ends up being more of a challenge than the mafia executive expected. Unsure what is causing Chuuya to revert to a child while still having his adult mind is frustrating but when it's discovered that he could suffer permanent effects, the situation becomes a little less cute.

    Summary

    “Sorry, Yoshiki,” Hikaru groans as tears come out of one eye and more of him comes out of the other. “Ughh, I don’t – ”

    Yoshiki can see how hard he’s trying to calm himself down, but it just isn’t working.

    “It’s ok,” Yoshiki says, quiet. “It’s ok. Instead of shovin’ it back inside completely, can you try just...lettin’ it out? Just a little bit?”

    He has no clue how any of this works, but maybe a half-measure is better than trying to force it all at once.

    “Okay,” Hikaru says, but it sounds like a sob. More of the unknowable, incomprehensible swirl leaks out into the dark room.

    “Yoshiki – shit – ‘m sorry but can I…” Hikaru’s face – what’s visible behind the bloom of him – twists in a small kind of agony. “Can I touch you? Not much. Just – ”

    It's been years since Hikaru first took the body of Yoshiki's dead best friend. Despite everything - every horror and hurt - they managed to find a home in each other. Not quite friends or family. More and not. What they have is complicated, but precious.

    But when Yoshiki escapes their small town – to college, to Tokyo – Hikaru follows. And things start to change for them both.

    Summary

    'Larkspur' and related angiosperms. Please take caution when perusing the Poison Garden: these flowering plants are lovely to behold when in bloom, but have the potential to be rather deadly.

    Summary

    "You think I hate you? You think I'd ever kill you?" Sokka holds Zuko's face in both hands, blood dripping from his lips. "I'd fall on my spear for you. I'd find you anywhere. What do you think that means?"

    Rescued, but imprisoned, Zuko finds himself no further from death on a water tribe ship. Sokka, the chief, would see him bleeding out on the boards of the deck as justice. He's a fire bender, the evil of the war that his father rages through their world. Zuko hasn't been a part of that war. Not for years. Now he's thrust back into it against his will, finding himself fighting on a side he never expected to be a part of. Maybe he'll find a cause worth fighting for; someone worth fighting for.

    Summary

    In a moment of desperate clarity, as the world crumbles toward inevitable darkness, Tobirama attempts the impossible. Hurled backward through the fabric of time itself, he awakens in a younger body during the blood-soaked era of warring clans.

    With fragments of another's memories entangled with his own, Tobirama navigates the delicate threads of history he once helped weave. Each careful intervention creates ripples through a tapestry he thought he understood—strategies shifted, words measured, confrontations reconsidered.

    But when fate places him face to face with the very men whose paths he seeks to alter, Tobirama discovers an uncomfortable truth: changing destiny requires confronting the darkness burning within himself as fiercely as in those he once condemned.

    Some cycles, it seems, are not so easily broken.
