Summary
When Gen met Senku for the first time, his life wasn’t yet a tapestry of lies.
The higher Senku’s rockets flew in the sky, the better Gen got at lying.
“Have you been watching me, Senku-chan? Can you still tell when I’m lying, even through a TV? Or are you somewhere in space, turning off the news when you hear my name…” his voice was light, but his brows were tightly drawn above his eyes, stuck on the ceiling of a flat too big for him.
The space was large enough for hopes and memories to tangle together, bouncing around the walls until they came back in the familiar mix of unattainable dreams.
When Gen met Senku for the first time, he was nine.
**
At the peak of his career, Gen accepted a role in a new popular show.
The last thing he expected was to see his old childhood friend on the set—ten years and the weight of past lies heavy between them.- Language:

Summary
Gen had no plans when he packed a bag, bought a plane ticket for New York, and ultimately ran away from home in the span of a night, simply functioning off the need to disappear. Needless to say, taking a transcontinental trip across America via train with a science-obsessed stranger was not what he had expected when he decided to abandon his lush lifestyle in Japan. But even then, Gen couldn't help but want to join the eccentric stranger in his journey of chasing the stars. More specifically, he wanted to chase him.

Summary
Yesterday night, Matsukawa had told his parents that he was joining math club, which lead to several confused smiles from them as they tried to figure out his change of heart.
“Didn’t you say you were allergic to competitive math?” His mom had asked. “I mean, don’t get me wrong, we’re very supportive of your decision, but-”
Fortunately, or maybe unfortunately, they’d let it go because no sane parent prevents their child from joining math team, which is intellectually beneficial and looks very nice on college applications. This, in turn, prevents Matsukawa from having to explain that he’s joining- dear god- because of a crush.

Summary
“You'll have to let me think about it,” Hanamaki says to him while they're looking at soup stocks in the supermarket one evening, because he knows being with someone is not as simple as he'd like it to be.
(At this, Matsukawa does not fret. He goes for the snack aisle, instead.)

Summary
“I never considered it waiting around,” Miles says. “I never expected it to become anything more. You were giving me all that you were capable of, and—maybe it wasn’t exactly in the form I hoped for, but it was more than enough.”
“Miles,” says Phoenix, giddy. “That’s fucked up.”
