Summary
Ren is the first to clear his throat. “So… Bringing you along did help?”
“Joker,” Morgana calls hysterically, “are you saying that out of all people, the Black Mask is your soulmate?!”
Well. Ren is pretty sure it was the Black Mask who said the words, not him, but he still kind of ends up nodding, but also shrugging because what the fuck.
Soulmarks are found on everyone’s left arm; the first words your soulmate will say to you.
Usually, this would make meeting your soulmate a relatively easy task.
Ren doesn’t have that kind of luck.

Summary
Ren lets himself fall apart for a bit, thoughts crashing and rising inside his head like raging waves. There would be no next weekend for them, he realizes — not for this Akechi and him, at least. Maybe Ren wouldn’t have a next week at all, considering he was already running on borrowed time and desperation.
He found the wrong Akechi again. He knows this. Even if his Akechi forgot everything about himself, even if he changed his identity on purpose, Ren has this feeling he could just discern the truth no matter what. He stares at this lump of joy next to him, lovely despite the furrowed brows and occasional groans, and he can tell: this is not his detective prince.(Ren walks through universes to return a leather glove, while the world he knows won’t stop crumbling all around him.)

Summary
Congratulations, his past yells at him. He died as the horrid villain everyone always wanted him to be. He died, he’s gone, a bunch of people are drinking champagne in his honor—Congratulations, even his mother says.
Except Goro Akechi is only dead in theory. In practice, he’s the man awkwardly standing in front of an old electronics store, now, watching a familiar host gossip about his disappearance.(No one bothers to arrange him a funeral. So, Akechi Goro does it himself.)

Summary
The first letter is soft and humiliating at the same time. The second letter is a ketchup-stained napkin. When the third one comes, written on coffee-scented paper, Goro already knows the reason. The stranger writes to him, more often than he should: he talks about crimes, cats, and questions that can’t be answered—and it’s haunting, really, how similar he is to the brilliant boy Akechi Goro never stopped loving.

Summary
“I’m going to give you the one thing you want most in the entire world. The one thing your heart yearns for, even if you don’t realize it.”
Goro draws in a sharp breath at the sight of the familiar silhouette in his kitchen, long and lanky with tousled black hair. It’s been more than a year, but he still hasn’t forgotten the way Akira moves.
Akira turns and smiles, his messy dark hair falling over his forehead, his eyes a brilliant sunflower yellow.
“Ah, but there’s a catch. You’ll always know it isn’t real.”
