    Summary

    “The quickest route to anywhere is a straight line,” Akechi says. “He’s a target, and I refuse to give up that easily. I’m doing this.”

    Morgana turns his skeptical gaze on him. “Are you sure? You weren’t feeling so great earlier...”

    Akechi watches their target for a moment longer, and the illusion of his soft yukata and softer hair dispels under his glass shard of a smile. There isn’t a trace of pain on his face anymore—only simmering, dark excitement. “As I said. I don’t like to lose.”

    And neither does Ren. Yeah, they’re head to toe in yukata and sandals, and yeah, everyone is right: this is so, so stupid. Ren is so stupid. But he’s gonna climb this roof and catch that goddamn cop.

    He meets Akechi’s gaze beat for beat. “Let’s do it.”

    Who says you have to see Morgana speak in the Metaverse before you can hear him in the real world? Not the few hundred officers who arrested Ren in Sae’s Palace two years ago, that’s for sure.

    Summary

    Part of Yuki was convinced that Kakeru was making fun of him. He never knew when jokes went too far. He never knew when to stop pushing Yuki’s buttons. And he knew he was good at teasing him. Part of him hated Kakeru for that, for being so easy with his touches, for hitting him where it hurt.

    “What are you doing?” Yuki said. Kakeru reached up and brushed the hair out of Yuki’s eyes, tucking the strands behind his ear with warm fingers.

    “Nothing,” he said. Yuki watched his eyes. They were big and watery and still unfocused from the weed.

    Summary

    Yuki fixates on Kakeru's chipped nail polish at some unholy hour of the night.

    ---

    "If pinned down, Kakeru is a 3:47am friend, a witching hour companion, a dark-of-night conspirator, which is how Yuki finds himself leaning against the jagged brick wall of some 24-hour convenience store at an hour when nothing and no one should actually be awake."

    Summary

    “Yuki!” Momiji chirped, loud enough that Yuki brought the phone further from his ear. “You’re in Tokyo, right? Aya said you were. Haru and I are going to Shinjuku tonight, you should come!”

    “Shinjuku?” Yuki raised his eyebrows. “Is Rin coming?”

    There was a pause. “No, she’s not.”

    “Huh. Okay,” Yuki said. “But anyway, I can’t come, I have plans with Kakeru tonight.”

    “Kakeru?”

    “Uh, Kakeru Manabe, he was the student council vice president in high school.”

    “Oooh! That guy!” Momiji’s voice became slightly distant, he was no longer speaking into the phone. “Haru, Yuki is going to bring his hot-loud-high-school-friend.”

    OR

    In which Momiji orchestrates a situation that involves 2 beers, a shot, and 2 cocktails.
