    “You’re trying not to tell him you love him, and you’re trying to choke down the feeling, and you’re trembling, but he reaches over and he touches you, like a prayer for which no words exist, and you feel your heart taking root in your body, like you’ve discovered something you don’t even have a name for.” —Richard Siken, Crush

    Summary

    “I think...I could’ve loved him.”

    Chuuya looks at him, really looks at him. He’s quiet for a long time, before he grimaces. “Maybe. In another world, another life. If you’d had more time. If someone else found him first. If, if, if. Love is a tricky thing; it finds us when we least expect it and leaves just as quickly.”

    But it didn’t leave. Akutagawa is dead.

    Summary

    The first time. The first time. Fushimi wonders when the first time became when. When Misaki sees him. When Misaki looks away. When he wakes up alone. Fushimi wonders when he became Fushimi again, instead of Saruhiko. No one calls him that anymore, and he feels like maybe he deserves it. He’s just Fushimi, he’s just that man’s son. He’s no longer Saruhiko, Misaki’s friend, Misaki’s partner. Saruhiko, co-vanguard of Homra. Now he’s Fushimi, third-in-command of Sceptre 4.
