    Summary

    Hikaru doesn’t get it. He doesn’t get any of it.

    Some days, it feels like Yoshiki just wants as much distance between himself and Hikaru as he can get. Other days, it’s like being away from Hikaru would kill him. Hikaru can’t tell what’s gonna set Yoshiki off or not, and it’s not like looking at the memories would help. He got moody like this before, but only when Hikaru tried to talk about girls or Yoshiki leaving one day, and never for as long as he does now.

    Is he doing something wrong?

    “Hey, Yoshiki?” he calls ahead. “What d’ya reckon we should do for my birthday?”


    Or; ‘Hikaru’ celebrates his sixteenth birthday. Hikaru doesn’t.

    Summary

    “Indou-san,” Hara-sensei greets as Hikaru stands in front of him. “How are you holding up?”

    It’s a question he has always hated, right back since fifth grade, when his daddy died. It’s a question that forces him to look at himself, at what he’s feeling, and decide what other people want to see and what’s too ugly to reveal. It’s exhausting. Can’t Hara-sensei tell just by looking at him? Can’t he tell Hikaru doesn’t want to wake up most mornings? Can’t he tell that it’s wrong, that Hikaru shouldn’t be the one standing here? Or is Hikaru really that good at tricking others into not looking that closely at him?

    It’s what he’s done his entire life, after all. Only one person even tried.


    After the death of his best friend, Hikaru tries to fill the space he left.

    Summary

    "Dude, you've got it bad. Go talk to her."

    "What? No!" Adrien frantically shook his head. "She hates me!"

    "She doesn't hate you," Nino sighed. "Adrien, you're being ridiculous."

    "No way, she scares me."

    "Dude, it's Marinette."

    "And? You've seen her talk to Chloé, right?"

     

    Adrien is head over heels for the clumsy, kind, and feisty girl who sits behind him in class. The problem? She hates his guts. The solution? Some well-timed wingmanning from Alya and Nino. What could possibly go wrong?

    Summary

    After the defeat of Gabriel Agreste and the disappearance of the mysterious peacock miraculous user, Marinette is left to try her best as Guardian and pick up the pieces. With the kwamis left in hibernation, no leads on the missing peacock miraculous, and no way to contact her beloved partner, she's left to her wit's end on where to proceed.

    That is, until the prime suspect of the peacock wielder coincidentally takes up an apprenticeship at her parents' bakery. Adrien Agreste, son of Hawkmoth, has seemingly planted his roots in her home while Marinette was away for an apprenticeship. This could either be a disaster in the making, or the perfect opportunity to retrieve the missing miraculous... either way, it's war.

    At least, it would be, if the gosh darn villain weren't so sweet!
