Summary
Shortly after his return to New York, Arthur Lester is found comatose and blind in an alleyway with no memory nor idea towards what put him there. That's what he says anyway, since he has some idea considering the amount of enemies he's made in the past year. It would be a lot easier if most of it wasn't faded in strange obscurity when he tries to remember; if he hadn't gone through it all completely alone.
And then he starts seeing the same faceless stranger in his dreams.

Summary
“How’s it feel being back?”
Eddie gives an unconvincingly exasperated sigh to the plate he's scrubbing. “For all of six hours?” He can’t hold the stoicism long, Buck knows, not when he’s been having wine. Sure enough, his response is quiet, sincere. “Good. It feels good.”
Buck accepts the new plate. He takes more time than he should drying it, just to steel himself and start once he sets it down.
“So when should I—“
“Oh, I forgot to ask—“
Their voices overlap.

Summary
LAX isn’t any more packed than it usually is, and despite that, Buck still feels like the amount of people he has to be aware of enough to skirt past on the way to Terminal Five is too many. All of the chaos fogs up his head. He keeps his hands balled in the pocket of his hoodie and picks up into longer strides to get somewhere he can sit down. The gate appears out of the haze and he scans the area in time to catch a family nearby getting up to meet their arrivee. It's a guy in a UCLA sweatshirt that immediately gets swept up in the arms of the oldest man in the group. UCLA squawks, “Oh my god, put me down, put me down, Dad—”, and Buck tunes the rest out.
He shuffles through and parks in a scuffed corner seat. It creaks under his weight. Buck sympathizes.

Summary
Then he breathes, tucks the phone away in his sweatpants. He goes and opens the door.
“Hey,” Eddie tells his dad automatically, tamping down the instinctual snarked, Sure, come right in. Ramon never waits to be invited, not when it comes to any threshold belonging to Eddie. The only time he has in recent memory’s been in LA, and that was mostly if Eddie had other people over.
He gives Eddie a look while he passes him, lip curling. “That’s all you’ve got to say? Hey?”
It, unironically, is.

Summary
“Buck!”
Evan once shocked himself by plugging the coffee machine back into the extension cord because the microwave and the vending machine were also in use. He’d smelled it for a good few minutes after. Once they knew he was fine, Hen told some joke about a thunderstorm forecast and Ravi kept randomly making zapping noises at him for the rest of the day.
Hearing that voice, Evan feels it like the real, preternatural thing he’s only ever imagined. The closet door opens behind Ms. Kelly.
There’s a kid. A boy.

Summary
“I just— Did you shave your mustache?”
Eddie reflexively touches the smooth skin above his lip, only kind of self conscious. He’s half-naked and that comment’s what manages to make him feel exposed, though the adrenaline still beating in his ears is loud enough to offset it. Plus, it’s just Buck. “I’d be offended that it took you this long to notice in any other circumstance.”
“To be fair, you answered the door in your underwear, I wasn’t really looking at your face,” Buck says back without missing a beat. The end of the sentence tapers into a wheezed cut off that Buck says nothing about, sitting up and looking around the living room pointedly. His eyebrow’s asking before he does. “Speaking of, what exactly did I interrupt?”

Summary
Buck stares, poker face failing not in small part because of how his eyes are flicking up and down, up and down. He breaks the cycle with a shrug tall enough to graze his ears. “Well! It’s weird!”
“Weird enough for you to want to get rid of it yourself, apparently.”
“Hey, you decided you were gonna shave it. I’m just the willing accomplice. I wouldn’t get the chance to try this out otherwise.”

Summary
—if there’s an antennae or something I have to fucking adjust but, Louis de Pointe du Lac please tell me you can fucking hear this—
Louis is too shocked to respond immediately. The voice is faint, but it’s not hard to extrapolate when he’d been listening to it dissect his entire undeath for the more tumultuous part of the past month. All he can blurt, both out loud and through the connection, is, “Daniel?”. Lestat squawks something from the shower.
Thank fuck, Daniel answers, bright with relief. Then a moment of long silence.
So. Slight, uh. Hiccup.
Louis takes the confirmation with all the grace of a brick shattering through a window. “No,” he says, “no, he didn’t.”

Summary
A flash catches in his peripheral. He glances back up at the fire and finds somebody sitting on the other side where Malam had been hours before.
“What the fuck,” he yelps, though apparently not loud enough to wake Arthur out of whatever layer of sleep he’s managed to fall into. On the one hand, John prefers it that way, so he can get some actual rest; on the other.
“You’re not supposed to say that word,” the person— the child— says, crisp and mildly accented, more like she’s repeating the phrase than actually spouting it for him.

Summary
“You didn’t make any contingency plans I don’t know about? Back before we killed Sukuna?”
It’s not what Satoru expects him to ask at all. He pulls a face, mouth falling open in confusion. “What? No. Why the hell would we need a contingency plan? Why would I be making the contingency plan in the first place? That’s what I’ve got you… for.” His face clears of any trace of sleeping and he leans up slightly. “This is what you were mad about in the dream. Sukuna.”
Instead of acknowledging that, Suguru measuredly asks, “You want to get cremated when you die, right?”

Summary
It’s less a blur than it is fractured moments of horrible clarity. Buck isn’t sure how they make it into the ambulance, but he can remember Chris rolling his eyes when Buck told him to not answer the door for anyone while he went to recon the pizza. The delivery guy was lost, which wasn’t uncommon since the entire block of residential buildings Buck lived on decided it didn’t need anything as simple as numbers to mark which was which, so if he didn’t get a pretty dedicated person, he almost always had to go downstairs.
It wasn’t the first or seventh time. Chris knew the drill. He’d flicked a piece of popcorn at Buck in an echo of what Buck had done to Eddie half an hour earlier, and told him to be fast, he was hungry. Sure thing, your majesty, Buck had bowed and Chris had laughed in that crackling way he did now while he steadily became more of a teenager. Buck smiled about it the entire way down. On the second flight, he’d realized he was still wearing his apron, debated going back up to leave it, then didn’t.
The explosion came next.

Summary
“I think the time to get rid of them is closer than we thought it’d be.”
Suguru flicks his gaze back to Satoru’s profile. His eyes aren’t glowing anymore but his tone is bone chilling, flat and not doing anything to conceal the real rage underneath it. It always makes Suguru’s nerves flare when he gets like that. He sounds so much like he did when he first unlocked his Eyes: detached to the point of destruction. There’s only one group of people he could be talking about that way.
“What happened?”
Satoru’s nostrils flare on a hard exhale. There’s a twitch in his brow Suguru usually smooths away. “Yuuji died,” he says and Suguru turns to face him fully, not quite registering what that means.

Summary
So it becomes a thing. ‘It’ being Buck coming the next night with an overnight bag, and then the night after that. ‘It’ being Buck finally deciding to take the extended leave, to all of their surprise. ‘It’ being Buck sleeping on his couch. Eddie starts every morning watching Buck teach Chris some new breakfast sandwich combo, the sunlight streaming in through the window turning them both golden so he couldn’t look away if he wanted to.
(And he doesn’t. It’d probably take nothing less than rapture for him to blink, and even then, Heaven could wait a few seconds.)

Summary
Okay, let’s work backwards. He was kissed. He was kissed, by Tommy. He was kissed, by Tommy, who is a man. He was kissed, by Tommy, who is a man, and Buck kissed him back and liked it. A lot, actually.
“Oh shit,” he says to himself and presses his entire palm over the lower half of his face to contain the rest thats about to come up.

Summary
He glances up when Satoru gets close enough, the fairy lights catching gold in his irises. He doesn’t look as haunted anymore, which makes every bit of Satoru’s current exhaustion worth it. Satoru settles on not even calling him out for the cigarette, this time. He nudges at where he approximates Suguru’s socked foot should be.
“Make room,” he says and bullies his way into Suguru’s cocoon. Suguru hisses as he burrows into his side. Adjusting to each other isn’t hard, and the blanket is more than big enough. When they’re in a satisfying tangle of limbs, Satoru sighs and lets himself relax back. The smell of tobacco will never not be nasty to him, but his two best friends being firmly viced has kind of Pavlov’d him into finding it vaguely comforting. It’s also clear by the stale sweat-stink Suguru hasn’t showered, but Satoru doesn’t care. He even sticks his nose in his lank hair until Suguru gently butts his head away with his own.
Suguru blows a stream out away from Satoru and asks, “Did you guys have fun?”

Summary
Satoru doesn’t give a shit if he could kill every curse in the whole country with a flick of his fingers: if Suguru’s not at his side to watch it happen, he couldn't care less about doing it. That’s just the kind of surety you have when you’re an arrogant, all powerful teenager and the person you love most in the world happens to be the same.
It’s selfish. It’s the truth. A truth he’s had to come to terms with more than ever considering just how close death’s circled them in the past year. So the fact he feels like he’s right on the edge of— he doesn’t even know, something bad, something that could take Suguru from him—
He’s kicking the sheets off before the thought’s even fully formed.

Summary
Whatever swell of fondness she’d started to feel shrivels away when that same light catches on something on her coffee table. Shoko stares at a smooth glass ball, dark and laced through with orange like the glow of an active volcano. Her hand falls limp at her side. She walks forward detached from her body, falling so suddenly to sit on the couch, she lands on Satoru’s ankles. Neither of them move.
Since he’s clearly not volunteering the information, Shoko asks. “Where’d you get it?”
Satoru taps his thumbs together where his hands are folded on his chest, once, twice. “He gave it to me,” he answers.
No punctuating laugh. No Gotcha!. No stuck out tongue Shoko always swipes at.
Just silence. Truth. He wouldn’t joke about this, anyway.

Summary
The situation itself isn’t bad, though. Gojo clearly has control and Yuuji’s just here to learn, so he’ll save questions for the end. It’s not like Gojo’ll answer them now anyway. Yuuji respects him and thinks he’s super cool, for sure. Explaining past the obvious or like, at all, is just clearly not one of his strengths. So, right, okay. They’re in Gojo’s domain. Yuuji’s hanging onto Gojo, Gojo’s carrying him under one arm, his other hand firm on the top geyser part of Mt. Fuji’s head (yanking on it, gross), and while it's all happening, Fuji screams, “Fucking Geto—“
The world shatters. Yuuji muffles a shriek into Gojo’s shirt. The sounds of the forest and the lake they’re on flood back in like a door’s been bust through. After a long enough pause, Yuuji peeks out.
