    Summary

    The plan was never as simple as it seemed. Shinobu Kochou was going to survive pre-med, secure her white coat, pursue her goals, dreams and uphold her family’s legacy. There was no room for distractions... or so she thought.

    Giyuu Tomioka was used to the loud pressure of the football stadium, but he wasn’t prepared for the quiet danger of Shinobu Kochou. What starts as a tentative friendship quickly evolves into a situationship that neither can define nor quit. It’s a touch-and-go game of stolen hours between midnight study sessions and 5:00 AM practices, played on the edge of their hearts.

    The hazards aren't just in the lack of sleep or the blurred lines. In this game, the most dangerous thing you can lose is your focus.

    Summary

    “Sir,” she said, sliding off the bed with slow, deliberate movements, “I don’t know how you got in here, and while I admire the commitment to whatever historical show you're cosplaying from, I do own pepper spray.”

    “I am Giyu Tomioka,” he announced with confidence.

    “That does not answer the question!”

    “I am from the Taisho era.”

    Her mouth gaped open as she could only ask, “You are from where?!”

    “The Taisho era,” he repeated calmly. “Early twentieth century.”

    “Of course you are,” she declared. “Naturally. That makes perfect sense. Why wouldn’t an ancient swordsman materialize in my bedroom at seven in the morning?”

    ___

     

    Past Giyu time travels to see Modern Shinobu in the current era.

    There is more to Past Giyu than he seems.
    There is more to Modern Shinobu than she even remembers.

    Summary

    As Shinobu relentlessly pushes Giyu, she begins to recognize the quiet intellect and crushing burden of guilt he carries, slowly falling for the man beneath the ice.

    Giyu, meanwhile, is thrown off balance by her persistent presence and unnerving mix of mockery and genuine warmth. He struggles to process the confusing intensity of his own emerging feelings.

    Through shared missions, competitive banter, and moments of vulnerability, the emotional dam Giyu has maintained for years finally breaks. Overwhelmed by the truth of Shinobu's affection and his own powerful need for connection, Giyu is forced to abandon his silence and take decisive action.

    This is a journey of two souls, bonded by shared loss, who ultimately find healing and a vibrant, blossoming love that proves even the most burdened spirits can achieve beautiful, well-deserved happiness.

    Summary

    Because I want you to live, she once said to Giyu when she was still an angry little nurse. Even if you don’t want to.

    --
    Shinobu fell first, but Giyu fell harder. People like her—beautiful, talented, bright—don't fall in love with the likes of him, Giyu tells himself. But it doesn't matter, because it's too late.

    This is how GiyuShino fell in love in between the events of the manga.
