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
"Why did he reach out to you instead of me?”
Shoko feels Gojo’s question on her skin first, the heat of his words. Something softer than anger but still filled with hurt. She starts to inch away but Gojo catches her by the shoulder, keeping her in place, their bodies lying parallel on her bed with scarce space between them. Sweat sticks his palm to her skin. She can feel his heartbeat in her bones, rapid and alcohol-addled.
“I don’t know,” she says. Gojo’s grip on her shoulder tightens for one moment then loosens, his hand falling to the mattress. She hears him turning away from her, a door slamming shut.
“I think you do,” is all he says before reaching out to turn off the light, plunging both of them into the dark.
Or: After Geto defects, Shoko and Gojo reckon with what he’s done to them and what they are to each other.

Summary
“Megumi stopped talking.”
Satoru’s grip tightens on his bag of snacks. “He’s not much of a chatterbox.”
Maki steamrolls past the deflection. “He’s not okay, idiot. You know it.”
“What do you want me to do?” Satoru says lightly. “Tell him his crush isn’t really dead? Surprise, he’s coming back? That’s the only thing he wants to hear. That’s the only thing that could make him feel okay.” He pops open a packet of gummy worms, shoves three in his mouth. “No one in our world is okay."
Gojo might be projecting.

Summary
A small, dark part of Megumi is glad Gojo is taking this lightly. Apparently Yuji wasn’t all that special to him. The thought makes him feel guilty, but that emotion is preferable to the crush of grief and fear and regret that he feels over Yuji’s death. So he lets himself stew in it, as a distraction.
He’s sad that Yuji is dead, but Gojo’s not, and that is a relief.

Summary
Two opposing things couldn’t both be true. The truth, Minho thought, was singular, immutable. Untouchable and unchanging.
Looking back, he had been so young.
