Summary
Dear Kenma,
I don't believe in soulmates; my mother seared that lesson into my skin. What does it mean, then, if you're the only person I'd build a kingdom with? Picture this: the battered strategist, smiling up at his defeated knight as they're surrounded by corpses. Their nation has fallen and their flag's singed to ash, but they stay stalwart and strong while they still have each other.
We know how this ends. I'd take the villain's sword for you.
Kuroo writes letters to Kenma he'll never send.

Summary
Kuroo will move into a residence a twelve-minute bike ride from campus, start his classes and hopefully make some friends. Taking the first steps into adulthood. It means a fresh start, new beginnings, growing up.
It means moving away from Kenma.
Kuroo and Kenma at midnight, and the expanse of unspoken words between them.

Summary
“This is the worst collab you’ve ever pitched.” Kenma scowls, his face contorting into an adorably familiar look of disgust. “I’m not that kind of streamer…”
“But,” Kuroo grins, triple-checking Belle Delphine's view count at her prime to be super certain, “you could be. Wouldn’t that be something?”
Or: Kenma sells his gamer boy bath water.

Summary
Of course Kuroo misses Kenma–it’s a grief that joins the many you acquire on the way to adulthood. The end of their friendship floats somewhere in Kuroo’s mind bank along with his mother dying or losing at Nationals, a dull ache as opposed to a constant hurt. Rejection would resuscitate the pain, the yearning, the reminder that it’s his fault Kenma won’t take him back. But there’s no avoiding that pointed gaze, no escaping Kenma’s sharp, catlike stare: their eyes meet, and Kuroo doesn’t have to be a mind-reader to know they’ve both realized the same truth.
Paris has brought them back together.
Kuroo and Kenma chase each other across the globe into Paris's heart.

Summary
He could stay, find shelter in the sheets and the body behind him and wake back up in a few hours as if he’d never brought the ice pick in the first place. He could stay, and Kuroo would let him.
But that would be a wretched thing.
—
Kenma wakes next to Kuroo, and they reckon with the heft of what that means.
