    Summary

    (SPOILERS FOR THE MANGA)

    Yoshiki kept his head down and stared at his clasped hands, struggling to stay present. The 5:30 morning train to the prefecture’s capital had been the earliest one they could find.

    “Hey,” Hikaru whispered from beside him, “you think this plan will work?”

    Yoshiki frowned, pressing down on his knuckles with his fingers. Despite wearing a long sleeved shirt, his newest gnarly scar was clearly visible on his hand, covering most of it. He still couldn't get used to it. “If it doesn’t, we’re both as good as dead, so…”

    -----

    When the mysterious company makes a move against Hikaru, he and Yoshiki are forced to flee Kubitachi, becoming a part of a plan that isn't even their own. Blindly putting their trust in Tanaka and accepting his help, the two run off to Tokyo. Things don't go how they expected. Both boys are forced to survive in an unknown environment as Hikaru is being hunted, keeping secrets from each other (and themselves) while struggling with inner turmoil.

    Underneath it all, what keeps them going is their quest for acceptance and understanding.

    Summary

    He crosses his arms around his chest, hunching over himself. "So, um. Is it... real different than bein' in a human body?"

    It clicks at him again. There's an answering shiver in Yoshiki's ribs, a mix of fear and itchy curiosity. Against his better judgement he inches forward, lifting his hand into the space between them. The thing tracks his movements with a noiseless twitch.

    "Do you feel other things the same, too? Like... if I touch you, can you feel it?"

    Summary

    A collection of stand-alone short fics and one-shots that tackle moments during episodes, between episodes, and beyond. Mostly canon compliant, (at least in my mind), besides a few older stories that have since been jossed by Steven Universe Future. Very character and relationship focused! :D

    Do pay careful attention to the tags, as I often tackle delicate mental illness related topics.

    I will update the order to keep it chronological with any new stories I add to this series.
