    Summary

    7 years with Mafuyu also means 7 years pretending not to be with Mafuyu. And maybe Ritsuka is getting sick of it.

    Summary


    "pâro" - the feeling that no matter what you do is always somehow wrong—that any attempt to make your way comfortably through the world, will only end up crossing some invisible taboo.

    Haruki steps forward, places a hand on Ritsuka’s shoulder. Is it pity? It’s hard to tell. Ritsuka doesn’t need nor want pity, he just wants to be seen, heard. Acknowledged. And maybe that’s what this is, but Ritsuka doesn’t dare take a guess, lest he be disappointed.

    “You can spend the night at my place, if you want.” A gentle squeeze. “I’m not going to lecture or yell at you. But I do think we need to talk. Alright?”

    Summary

    And it’s like the ground opens, the way Itadori’s stomach jumps—like he’s swallowed a lit sparkler and his insides have gone to crackled heat, light, smoke. He’d thought, after all these years, he’d completed the catalogue of Fushiguro’s vocal range (bored, annoyed, intrigued, amused-but-pretending-to-be-one-of-those-first-three-things, etc.) but now Itadori realizes there’s a whole new index of sounds his friend can make: dark, thick, urgent.

    ***

    (The line between obligation and intimacy blurs after a mission at a nightclub. Fushiguro's longing comes to a head and Itadori has to navigate new feelings about it all.)

    Summary

    It’s been a little more than a month since everything almost went to shit, since the Armed Detective Agency and Port Mafia faced off against Dostoyevsky, since Yokohama almost lost its fragile, balanced peace.

    And it’s also been just about a month since Ranpo emerged from Poe’s book, all pride and glowing accomplishment for solving 500 murders in a week, and just a passing comment about the other guy losing patience and starting punching people.

    --

    Chuuya emerges from Poe's book, exhausted, to discover that Dazai has been severely injured. Standing guard in the Agency's infirmary, Yosano, Kunikida, and Chuuya find unexpected common cause in their desire to keep Dazai in one piece despite his best efforts to hide his vulnerabilities from everyone around him.

    Summary

    "Who disturbs my slumber?" a voice booms out, into the water, very clearly able to be heard, which isn't how the physics of sound and water work, but that's a problem for later, because Dazai recognizes the voice instantly.

    "Why are you sleeping in the Yokohama harbor?!" Dazai says, back, wasting most of the rest of his oxygen as he swims backwards several feet. Of course, for Dazai, the words just come out as a vague series of muffled sounds and air bubbles.

    Despite Dazai moving backwards, the tentacle he'd been touching – because that's undeniably what it is – snaps out quicker than Dazai can track in the dark water, wrapping around his waist and pulling him closer.

    Lovecraft frowns. "I have seen your face before."
