    Summary

    “It’s okay,” he says. Despite his brave face, the shake in his voice betrays his fear; his small shoulders, hunched over in anticipation, tense, and Touya can read the lines of uncertainty in his body. “It’s okay,” he repeats, curling his hand around Touya’s thumb more tightly. “Becuase nii-san is here, and nii-san is my super strong hero.”

    Touya’s breath catches in his throat.

    Shouto looks up, and his eyes— half Touya’s, half Oka-san’s, wholly genuine— meet Touya’s. “So can we go explore?”

    Or: Heroes and villains aren't black and white. For Shouto, one person (presumed dead) is both. Oh, and he's juggling the weight of three different expectations and living two different lives, which goes just as well as could be expected for an emotionally stunted teenage boy.
