    Summary

    Nakamura Okuto never meant to run into Hirose Aiki again on a rainy evening in Tokyo.

    He only heard a familiar voice on the train platform, saw a pale coat and an orange umbrella through the crowd, and found himself taking the same inconvenient route home for several days in a row.

    Years ago, Nakamura had said goodbye without saying nearly enough.

    Years later, Hirose still remembers the quiet boy who loved black coffee, octopuses, and leaving too many things unsaid.

    And somewhere in the middle was Matsumura Kosei, the unlikely thread loosely tying the two of them together.

    Summary

    (might change the name when I think of something better)

    “Are you okay?” Hirose whispered, speaking low enough so only Nakamura could hear.

    ‘No,’ was his first thought, breathless. In any moment, his legs would give out and he’d fall into a pathetic heap in front of the love of his life.

    Wait- yes! He’s more than okay, this is a chance of a lifetime! His future bloodline would be told of this life-changing event, a sacred moment of history meant to be shared with all.

    Or perhaps it will be a story of caution. But instead of Icarus, it’s about a socially awkward boy dying from flying too close to gay teenager heaven. Closeting too close to the sun, if you will (literally and figuratively.)

    or

    Nakamura goes to a party for the first time in his life, and surprisingly enjoys himself. Alot.

    Summary

    Nakamura hasn't been to school in days.

    When he finally returns, he barely looks at Hirose before hurrying away.

    At first, Hirose tells himself not to overthink it. But as Nakamura continues to avoid him, the distance between them becomes impossible to ignore. Determined to understand what changed, Hirose finds himself retracing every conversation, every shared moment, and every feeling he'd never thought to question before.

    Or Hirose is now on Nakamura's side of the same coin, obsessing and assessing every conversation he's had with him in hopes to find out what went wrong, and how to get Nakamura's attention back. Based on Laufey songs Promise and Too Little, Too Late.

    Summary

    “I didn’t know you liked strawberries,” he said, gesturing vaguely to Lance’s whole aesthetic.

    Lance clutched the milk jug like a shield.

    “I—um—I don’t usually—I mean, this is just—clothes—Veronica dragged me out—I—”

    “You look cute.”

    Lance actually squeaked.
