    Summary

    “Yew berries,” Izuku easily responded. Hitoshi’s pout didn’t lessen. “You’re people call it the fruit of the Graveyard Tree,” he supplied with an almost mocking sweetness. The tone wasn’t at Hitoshi’s expense but at those silly enough to fall prey to the tree.

    Izuku didn’t let himself be disheartened by the startled breath. Hitoshi had been cunning at their encounter, able to avoid Izuku’s queries with ease aplenty and knew of the Fae’s lack of lies. He didn’t shy but stared at the offering. And Izuku felt his heart flutter at the gentle whisper Hitoshi let out as he uttered:

    Pay heed of the Graveyard Tree--
    Never aging, never dying
    with branches of inviting shade
    and flesh red berries--
    but the tree is lying

    Bark of poison,
    seeds of sleep,
    its only yearn is to keep.

    Selfish, seeking, always creeping,
    growing , knowing, overflowing.

    Play not near it, keep a distance,
    for the Graveyard Tree,
    is ever bearing.
