    Summary

    Joseph reflected, numbly, staring at Caesar’s slack face, that he’d probably loved him the instant Caesar had first called him an idiot. He’d hated him with such intensity that when there was nowhere for the hate to flow, he’d just begun to love him, pure and simple, with just the same fervor.


    Joseph and Caesar, student athletes and gigantic idiots, fall in love over the course of a year (ish).

    Summary

    “Red is fortuitous, A-Qing. We are not,” she whispered once when he had begged to have just a single red ribbon to put in his hair, the color looking so pleasing against the paleness of his skin and the coal of his hair. “It is an honor where we’ve been disgraced, a celebration when we’ve no worthwhile event…”

    A criminal’s son. Mu Qing would never be worthy.

    But Hong’er? Hong’er came to this earth in red, in between clock strokes of minute time where the stars had aligned for favor or misery. It was stupid prejudice that made people think the younger child was nothing more than a wretched omen.

    Summary

    December twenty fourth is a day of mourning. It’s easy to forget, right now, riding up an escalator to the jaunty tune of a poppy Christmas song, Yuji humming off key in Megumi’s ear and Yuta enduring an older lady reaching to arrange his hair, falling over his face. It’s easy to forget, but at the same time, Megumi can see the physical manifestation of what they survived on Yuji’s face, and Yuta’s shifting eyes; fists that clench around the handle of an invisible sword. Megumi is reminded of it by the fact that Satoru isn’t here with them right now. He should be grateful. Satoru and Yuji in a mall together is worse than Yuji alone. But Satoru would flounce around with food and drinks, try on clothes, always find something to get Megumi even if it’s a useless thing that Satoru knows he doesn’t need.

    Megumi is upset about this new absence often. He steps off the escalator; this time Yuji has Megumi’s hand leading him through the hall towards the medium sized shop, the door framed by black marble and the shine of a chandelier falling against the regular tile of the mall floor. Sheesh. Overkill. So Satoru.
