    Summary

    in a world where flowers paint themselves on your skin for every person you love in your lifetime, hajime has had purple asters crawling across his skin since he was twelve.

    all for a boy who has climbed mountains and mountains and conquered them, with hajime always wondering if there will come a day when the boy can no longer come back home—or a day when the universe deems the world unworthy of this boy and finally takes him back home, into the skies to meet the stars that are much like himself—only that he is much brighter, only that he is much greater.

    all for a boy who has marigold blooming on his skin, because he is a child of the sun, of the universe, of metaphorical golden thrones with a crown that fits only him but also because he is not capable of love outside of this: all-consuming and greedy and taking and taking and taking.

    but tooru is his tooru and hajime will give and give and give because there is not much to lose if everything has always begun with this very same boy that is the reason for the purple asters on his skin.

    or,

    a narrative on oikawa tooru over the years through the eyes of iwaizumi hajime, but in poetics and the addition of flowers.

    Summary

    Clearly Iwaizumi had a checkered past. Kyoutani has never asked about it, nor has Iwaizumi ever brought it up. He knows it’s a sore spot for his mentor, just like the gorgeous Monte Carlo he keeps hidden away is, so he leaves it alone. Out on the streets, you learn a little something about when to turn a blind eye in order to survive; Kyoutani knows better than most to leave the past of men like Iwaizumi well alone.

    It’s probably got something to do with the boy in the polaroids, though.

    Retired pickpocket & conman Iwaizumi Hajime receives an invitation he can't possibly decline, pulling him back into his old life to work a job with his old friends and ex-lover Oikawa Tooru. His mostly-legit apprentice Kyoutani gets dragged along for the ride. It's a complete mess.

    Summary

    When Iwaizumi was tasked with training a newbie, he thought it wouldn't be a problem. When Iwaizumi met Oikawa, he realised that problem is not the word to describe what is happening.
