    Summary

    Futaba sighs, walking farther to collapse on a nearby bench. “… it’s called Hanahaki. It’s actually a super popular trope in stories online—that’s how I recognized it. People who have it… well, you saw how Akira was. They grow flowers in their lungs and puke it up when it gets too bad.”

    “And do you know its origins?" Goro asks. "Anything that could link back to Maruki? He must have added it for a reason.”

    “... Yeah, I think so. That’s kinda why I wanted to talk to you about this alone.” Futaba brings her knees up to her chest, wrapping her arms around them. “People only get Hanahaki if they love someone who doesn’t love them back.”

    or; a strange status effect fills Akira's lungs with flowers. Goro is left to care for him—and to grapple with what the disease means.

    Summary

    After Goro let out another irritated sigh, the barista of his favorite cafe finally couldn’t stop himself from breaking the silence.

    “So, what was it this time, detective? Because something happened, right?” Ren asked. He couldn’t hide the hint of curiosity in his voice.

    “Are you trying to tell me you haven’t seen the news today?” He hoped he didn’t sound as tired as he felt.

    “Uh, no. I was actually waiting for you to tell me in person. It’s more interesting than these clickbait articles, you know?”

    Summary

    “You–” Akira begins, chokes on the word, tries again, “you’re here again. How are you here?”

    “Hm?” At this, Akechi gently pulls him away, eyebrows knitted in concern as his hand moves to Akira’s cheek. “What do you mean? I told you yesterday that I had plans to go shopping with Mother here, didn’t I?”

    Akira’s blood runs cold in his veins.

    or; Goro's greatest wishes become reality, and Akira must break him out of it - that is, if he can find the heart to.

    Summary

    The smile on Ren’s face grew as he watched the new gardener hiss and scowl at a dying strawberry plant. The new gardener had only been there for two weeks, but that was long enough for Ren to be sure that he had no idea what he was doing.
    He watched as the new gardener picked up the hose and sprayed the stream right into a group of strawberry plants. Strawberries that were very clearly dying from overwatering.
    The new gardener was pretty though. And very entertaining to watch.
    Well, maybe today was the day for him to make introductions. He wanted to at the very least learn the name of the strawberry drowner before he was inevitably fired.
