Summary
“Sorry, Yoshiki,” Hikaru groans as tears come out of one eye and more of him comes out of the other. “Ughh, I don’t – ”
Yoshiki can see how hard he’s trying to calm himself down, but it just isn’t working.
“It’s ok,” Yoshiki says, quiet. “It’s ok. Instead of shovin’ it back inside completely, can you try just...lettin’ it out? Just a little bit?”
He has no clue how any of this works, but maybe a half-measure is better than trying to force it all at once.
“Okay,” Hikaru says, but it sounds like a sob. More of the unknowable, incomprehensible swirl leaks out into the dark room.
“Yoshiki – shit – ‘m sorry but can I…” Hikaru’s face – what’s visible behind the bloom of him – twists in a small kind of agony. “Can I touch you? Not much. Just – ”
It's been years since Hikaru first took the body of Yoshiki's dead best friend. Despite everything - every horror and hurt - they managed to find a home in each other. Not quite friends or family. More and not. What they have is complicated, but precious.
But when Yoshiki escapes their small town – to college, to Tokyo – Hikaru follows. And things start to change for them both.

Summary
Stages of the aftermath of a confession, up to the interval before the latest 10th Mix manga chapters (2025), a good chunk of which might be summarized as: Akihiko makes Haruki cry, for different and legit (?) reasons across multiple instalments *shifty, shifty eyes* May eventually include stories from before they get together and The Future.
p.s. yes, this series title is SO original?! + apologies to anyone reading this who also happens to care about ancient Chinese literature 😅

Summary
You don’t wake up and decide you like a guy like Haruki, and then just go for it. Not after what Akihiko did. Haruki, after all, was a person you can easily take for granted, and Akihiko was determined not to do any more of that than he already did.
AKA the five times Akihiko didn't confess to Haruki, and the one time he (accidentally) did.

Summary
Kuroro wants to take him, breathe him in. He wants to burrow under his skin and live at his lips, tucked away behind his teeth. He wants and wants and needs.
Fuck. The damned nen-exorcist may have had a point.
Kurapika’s eyes flicker towards him, then, and the dull burning in Kuroro’s gut flares. The crease between Kurapika’s eyebrows deepens, but that’s the only sign that he recognizes Kuroro at all before he turns away from him completely.
“Be still, my heart,” Kuroro murmurs sourly to himself and yet he cannot look away.
(In which Kuroro must endure the side-effects of his nen exorcism. Alternatively, Kuroro is forced to have feelings and absolutely cannot handle it.)
