    Summary

    Having been the recipient of that (accordingly) rare touch leaves Takumi a bit wrongfooted, but at the same time, he misses it. Omokage… smells good, he’s realising. Maybe it would be more accurate to say that Omokage has such a powerful smell amidst all the others that he can actually focus on it… but Takumi feels as if it’s more than that. There’s something very familiar about it, almost comforting, like he feels at the end of the day when he sinks into his bedsheets at home, or… Karua’s arms.

    The reminder of Karua makes Takumi shudder, suddenly overcome. He stares down at his hands—human for now—and shudders again. As he watches, his nails start to elongate and darken, as if to become claws again. This time Takumi’s able to halt the motion by clenching his fists, but seeing his body change so easily, obviously, and immediately before his own eyes makes an overwhelming sense of revulsion twist in his stomach.

    “What happened to me?” is all Takumi can croak in light of all that.

    ---

    Omokage helps Takumi pick up the pieces after a late-night attack and life-altering transformation.

    Summary

    “I find anthropology very interesting, Shinguuji-kun,” Kiibo protests. “I would have rather enjoyed your presentation.”

    Iruma clears her throat. “Yeah, but Momota’s not a fuckin’ anthropologist, and his voice doesn’t stay the same pitch when he gives a demonstration. ‘Sides, he wasn’t doing a powerpoint. It was a whole obstacle course and simulated emergency procedure. It was kinda a big deal.”

    “Did you catch it?” Rantaro asks hoarsely, lifting his head. Iruma shakes hers.

    “Naw. He wanted to keep it to the people closest to him. His sidekicks, his folks.” Iruma gives Rantaro a pointed look, and he groans, his head falling back into his hands.

    “I’m a horrible person.”

    “You certainly could have done better,” Kiibo murmurs.

    ---

    Rantaro misses Kaito's practical examination.

    Summary

    Well, Ouma was kind of joking. But he wasn’t kidding that he can’t die like this. Unless Amami gets a silver tooth, the worst that’ll happen is that Ouma passes out for a while and then wakes up once his blood has sufficiently replenished itself. Besides, no matter how hungry Amami lets himself get, he’s never taken more than Ouma has offered. He rarely even takes the full amount. So Ouma isn’t scared of this—and admittedly, though he understands the person that Amami is, he still fails to understand why Amami continuously refuses to seek him out.

    Maybe it’s just hard, to ask someone for something as vital as their blood, even willingly offered. Ouma can’t pretend like he wouldn’t be the same, in Amami’s situation. But it’s real easy to be holy given that he isn’t.

    “Come on,” Ouma prods, “you look totally miserable, Amami-chan, and that’s no lie.”

    ---

    Amami does the same thing as he always does, so Ouma makes sure he's taking care of himself. Simple as that.

    Summary

    “For the past seven months,” Vash begins, “there has been one night per month where Wolfwood has just disappeared from the apartment.”

    “Which are also the nights that Chapel took his last seven victims,” Meryl repeats. Chapel being the freaky assassin/serial killer who has been terrorising their small town for the past year or so. The majority of these killings have seemed to have some kind of political motive—but not all of them. A few of the victims have been wealthy heirs or prominent celebrities, too. But the fact remains—

    “I thought it was just a freaky coincidence at first. I mean, Wolfwood’s… a college student, and a barista. There’s no way he’s actually…” He lets out a laugh, and it’s reedy, betraying his nerves. Vash winds his fingers through the hair on the back of his head and thinks idly it might be time for a trim. “But then there were the other things—like the way he stopped that car from hitting Millie.”

    Millie nods sagely. “That was very impressive. The car dented!”

    ---

    Vash trusts his roommate of almost a year, but not to a fault. He'd have to be an idiot to ignore the clear warning signs, and they all point to Wolfwood being... a serial killer.

    Summary

    His eyes drift back to the banner with his name on it, lingering on the kanjis in his family name. If his classmates knew what Rantaro has done… the amount of people who have suffered because he’s just so damn useless… would they still want to put on a party like this? Would they want to know him at all?

    It’s better that they don’t know. Rantaro is too selfish to lose them. But he’s also…

    Being here just feels… wrong. Rantaro takes a breath to try and calm himself as he’d done this morning, but it’s harder to draw in air this time. His hands curl and uncurl at his sides. The next step he takes is backwards, in the direction of the door, and then he’s turning around entirely, reaching up to grip the strap on his bag.

    As the door falls shut behind him, Rantaro thinks he hears Kaede call out, but he doesn’t stop to listen to what she’s saying. He just—he needs some air.

    ---

    Rantaro's class throws together a surprise party for his birthday. It unearths some complicated emotions, but fortunately Rantaro's boyfriends are able to help.
