Summary
Arthur leaned heavily against Kieran and hummed contentedly. His eyes slipped shut of their own accord. Slowly, as though scared he might spook, Kieran’s arm snaked around Arthur’s back, and his hand rested on Arthur’s far hip. Wherever they touched, Arthur’s skin tingled pleasantly, as though it had been waiting for this all his life.
Was this what it had been like, before all his relationships had grown too complicated? Had he ever had something as soft as this? Loving Mary had never been easy, and God rest her soul, he hadn’t stuck around Eliza long enough to feel anything as easy as this.
Because it was easy, somehow, leaning against another man—this particular man—and let himself be soft, just this once. Every now and then.
-----
Kieran and Arthur spend some downtime bonding in between missions with a slow living, ephemeral vibe. Eventually, this will be canon divergent. Ongoing.

Summary
This blossoming warmth in his chest did not start with Burdock Root. No, it started with a smile. It was handing it off to the boy, rough and dirty fingers brushing for just a breath. It was the wide-eyed shock, the openness in Kieran’s expressions, uncaring who saw what he felt. It was the uncertain crinkle around his eyes as they turned up toward him, despite that he would stand taller, if he were to stand tall at all.
It was the soft smile blooming across Kieran’s face, warm as the sun and shining just as bright, if crookedly, like the sun winking through shy clouds. It transformed him, turned boy to man, and suddenly that beard and those kind eyes fit his face. Became more charming, the patchwork nature of his facial hair, that one spot on his chin that wouldn’t take to stubble.
Arthur tipped his hat down and turned his back, just in case his face betrayed whatever this was stirring in his traitor’s chest. A warmth that spread to his cheeks.
He would call it butterflies if it weren’t so ridiculous.

Summary
Ichiro and Samatoki have been dating for months, and all Samatoki wants is one goddamn date. Frustrated that Ichiro keeps putting his brothers first, Samatoki reserves a winter cabin for the Christmas weekend—but Ichiro insists on bringing his little brothers. Forced to cohabitate with the younger Yamadas, Samatoki must figure out how he fits into this established family when all he has left is a found one.
That alone would be a challenge. Afterall, it's hard enough for Samatoki to steal a single moment alone with his boyfriend with his kid brothers around. It only gets harder when they're snowed in.

Summary
“Shut up.” He sounds angry. That’s fine. “Why are you really here?”
Chuuya has a strand of hair that’s freed itself from its loose tie, and it’s dangling just over his face. Dazai clenches his hands into the pockets of his coat to kill the urge he has to tuck it back into place.
“I just missed you,” Dazai says with a shrug.
“Bullshit.”Three instances of Dazai realizing he has an aversion to being touched, plus one where he actively seeks out touch from Chuuya despite that fact.

Perfection. Painful butterflies with glass wings that cut on the inside. Happy tummy flips one moment and then angst the next. Perfect. Dazai self-hatred. Suicidal thoughts. "Constant clotting apathy"???? I'm not okay

Summary
"What do you think, old friend?" he asks wearily, claws summoned to scratch beneath the tiger's chin. "Would the Honmoon save a guy like me?"
(Jinu doesn't betray Rumi at the Idol Awards. It still doesn't work out the way they hope.)
