Summary
Killua’s earliest memory is not being able to breathe - a heavy, suffocating haze tracing back to the torture training that’s been a part of his life since birth.
Sometimes it feels like he’ll never get away from it all, that he’s cursed to drown in the weight of his family’s ambitions for him, all because he happened to be born a Zoldyck.
But it’s different, at times. When he’s with Alluka, witnessing the amazing things that his little sister is capable of, things don’t always seem as grim.
… and Gon.
The world seems pretty different when he’s with Gon. Simpler and easier, like the weight that’s always sat on his chest isn’t so heavy after all.
To breathe is, in some ways, to be free, and that’s something he’s been fighting for his whole life.
My first ever contribution to a HxH Big Bang, exploring Killua's past and aiming to fill in some blanks there. Also written to be consistent with Postcards, and generally as canon-compliant as possible <3
