    Summary

    So when he’s told that, in the end, it’s going to be something as mundane as illness that will finally kill Akira—well. It’s the most ridiculous thing that Goro’s ever heard.

    It should matter that Akira is far bigger than life and death.

    (Akira Kurusu is dead, Akira Kurusu is dying. Goro loved, loves, will always love him.)

    Summary

    There’s a thrumming coming from somewhere — loud, deafeningly loud, but Ren is the only one who can hear it. It takes him a moment to realize that it’s him: his pulse, his heart, his own rising understanding that something is wrong. “Akechi,” he says, strangled and smiling, “this really doesn’t matter.”

    But Akechi is already reeling back, already buttoning his shirt, already gone — again.

    “Ren,” he mimics, eyes flashing, “it really does.”

    Ren lets details of his first time slip. Akechi doesn't think it's as harmless as he does.

    Summary

    Longing for purpose, village physician Rhys follows a dashing red-haired knight to a world of intrigue and adventure.

    But a mercenary company is no place to hide. Secrets catch the light, and Rhys's growing curiosity about the group's thorny and reticent bowman may risk more than just his life.

    AU-ish: 90% canon-compliant with one major divergence. A wartime romance about honesty, goodness, and what it means to be understood.
