    Summary

    The distant crash of the waves rumble in sync with his stuttered breaths as he crosses the crest of the hill with a heavy heart, the horizon vanishing behind him, leaving only the steadiness of land to comfort him. Leorio and Kurapika don't seem too phased by it, but they don't know it as he does. They don't know how Gon's heart pumps saltwater and how his lungs were made for to hold, made to be submerged in violent depths.

    When the Kiriko hoist them in their large claws, soaring at dizzying heights, Leorio shouts something about not looking down.

    But Gon is only looking to the sea, always to the sea.


    or: Gon, and the ocean

    Summary

    Sometimes sleepless nights lead to strange conversations.

    "Should I be worried about the trouble you're causing?" she prods.
    Childe shakes his head with an expression that is almost rueful.
    "I wish. No, just passing through."
    "Pinkie promise?"
    He lets out an awkward laugh, stretching out his hand. Lumine locks her finger with his—the soft leather of his glove is slightly cool to the touch. This is silly but perhaps silly is what she needs right now.
    "I most solemnly swear I don't mean harm to anyone in Sumeru." He looks mischievous and serious at the same time, like a teenager.
