    Summary

    “So you’ve been in love?”

    “Of course not.” Gen grins, razor sharp. “It wouldn’t suit someone like me.”

    Senku stares at him, and once again, Gen finds it difficult to read him. What could he possibly be searching for? Gen’s poker face is flawless. It’ll take more than a little heartache to unravel him. It’ll take more than the likes of Ishigami Senku.

    Senku enlists Gen's help in writing his wedding vows. It's nothing a mentalist can't handle.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    this fic fucked me seven ways to sunday, had a smoke afterwards, and still refuses to buy me dinner after tossing a couple crumpled bills in my direction.

    (hooooooo boy was it all worth it tho. i was hella worried how that "happy ending" tag would come into play but im so glad i stuck thru. gen is right: it really was like a rollercoaster.)

    Summary

    27-year-old post-doc Senku Ishigami is almost hit by a car one night on his way home after finishing a model demonstrating interstellar travel might be possible, only saved by mentalist and TV star Gen Asagiri. They bicker, they part, and that should be the end of it.

    But the next day Senku wakes up to a repeat of the day he finished his model and almost gets hit by a car.

    And so does Gen.

    Summary

    "I sang a lot growing up," Ukyo says. "Music was very important to my family. The day of the petrification, I was supposed to go meet one of my cousins for a karaoke night.”

    Gen’s eyes brighten. “Dear Ukyo, are you telling me you’ve been hiding a musical talent all this time?”

    Ukyo smiles, almost shy but clearly pleased. “Guess so. I’m out of practice, but I can still carry a tune.”

    Gen leans forward, absolutely delighted. “We are absolutely having a performance night. You can sing, I can do magic. I’ll make a stage, I’ll get dear Yuzuriha to make you something indecent for you to wear - oh, the possibilities!”

    Senku forces himself to keep walking, though their voices follow him, threaded through with laughter. It’s nothing, he tells himself. Just a conversation about music. Just another trivial, unnecessary thing Gen happens to share with Ukyo instead of him.

    --

    Ukyo can sing. For many reasons, this means Senku suffers.

    Summary

    ** This is a "side chapter" to my fic On That Pale Blue Dot but absolutely doesn't need to be read with it. (It would be like.. Ch 5.5) **

    Stanley brings someone home, as usual, but for once Xeno has some thoughts about it other than eye-rolling.
