    Summary

    Tsukasa Tenma, prince of Kamiyama, saved Rui from poverty with the condition that Rui serve him loyally and eternally.

    Rui has never experienced a Christmas where he has truly been warm. Maybe it isn’t the palace and the riches that make him feel safe, but the prince himself.

    Summary

    Oh. Something is different. Something is right. And that fact is unfathomably wrong.

    The body slotted against Akito’s is warm, the clean edges fitting seamlessly into his vague graphite shape. The cool breaths falling against his mouth taste like life, and his head spins with the love that beats in time with his pounding heartbeat. And something impossibly sweet turns in his chest.

    Lips move and breath forms. Lungs turn stiff and blood vessels empty– filling, turning, burning, with the wonder of an infant. The blanket is unspeakably warm. And the mattress dips with a familiar figure.

    The bed is not empty.

    He can barely believe his eyes.

    After Toya's death, Akito struggles to live alone.

    But maybe what's dead isn't truly gone.

    Summary

    Akito slowly sits up against the headboard and briefly fusses with her hair. Today is a new day, and the stains of yesterday are not allowed to linger in the new light of dawn. She’ll wake up in the same creaking bed, jog beneath the same leaves, work the same boring hours, and fall asleep to the same sound of wind between the immortal trees.

    Then she’ll wake up in the same creaking bed and do it all again.

    It’s different from how it used to be, but it’s the same, in the end. Living is living, and Akito is living. Even if a day feels like a trek through a sandstorm, she will move forward.

    Everyone has gone somewhere and became nothing. Akito and Toya are no different.

    This is among some of the most wonderful pieces of fan fiction I've ever read, and that's not even close to an exaggeration. The way that the author uses metaphors and symbolism is something that I could only dream of. I truly wish I could leave a million kudos on this because of how amazing it is !
