    There's nothing quite like the bleeding red lines where you can see the outline of yourself in another.

    "if the price of life is hell, no one ever had to sell me on how nice a fire smells" by notdarthvader
    'There's nothing quite like the bleeding red lines where you can see the outline of yourself in another.'

    so this one is short but like. as compact at it is i think its absolutely STEEPED in personal meaning and love for the characters and how they could reflect eachother and sentiment and the idea of painfully seeing yourself in the other, and extending a hand.

    my favorite line: 'He can feel Chika’s tears staining his cheek from where her face is pressed to his temple, feel the way she grieves for him, for herself, for the way cages are never so easy to open.'

    Summary

    The baby throws back its head, and Kiryu can see it, small and red, only a week or two old at most.

    The woman strokes their head and kisses the forehead, cooing into the baby. “-darling-” he catches her say, the rest of her voice still too soft, too round to understand.

    Kiryu has to know who these people is, why he’s here. He needs to know who this couple and their child are. Suddenly consumed with this desire, Kiryu steps forward, and the woman’s head turns.

    He knows that face.

    Summary

    “She’s been vindicated that her son is a failure. The promise I made to her to get better, all the effort she took to give her dream away so I could have it, the faith she put in me—I just—it’s gone. All of it’s gone, the Tojo is gone. I didn’t even say goodbye to her. Not even a phone call. I…” Daigo’s voice croaked as the car idled. “I don’t remember… the last thing I said to her.”

    After Kiryu’s visit in Infinite Wealth, death weighs heavily on Daigo’s mind. Before Daigo returns to his responsibilities, he makes a detour to visit Yayoi who now lives in the remote countryside.

    "Fugue" by Foegerfeax
    'After Kiryu takes the car and leaves, Nishiki is out in the woods alone. It's a bit chilly.'

    wow… impeccable writing it got to me. Often think of this fic when thinking about the scene in the woods with Nishiki and Kiryu
