Summary
Where Yuki’s headphones customarily sit, curled gently around the slender column of his neck, there is a soft collar of rumbling black fluff.
“We have a cat,” Yuki says.
He says it like a fact, like something everyone should already know; like, the sun is bright, and Haiji is a monster, and, apparently, we have a cat.

Summary
“You get along well with Yuki,” he says softly, not looking away from the eggs he’s frying for lunch. “Don’t you?”
“Well enough, I guess,” Nico says, finally, looking up in time to meet Haiji’s gaze when he turns around.
“It’s good he has you to look out for him,” Haiji says finally, features softening as he smiles, lips curling up gently. “You’re good for each other.”
Nico stares at him for a moment, letting the words settle around him. It’s not how he would have phrased his relationship with Yuki, half antagonism and half snarky camaraderie, but something about Haiji’s words rings true nonetheless.

Summary
Haiji laughs again: a small, quiet thing, barely more than a breath, but Kakeru can still hear it. Haiji’s smiling, though, soft and fond and proud, and Kakeru can’t help but smile back, even as he gives in and pulls Haiji closer, letting Haiji lean into him more, taking more of his weight so it’s not all resting on Haiji’s knee. They’re so close now, closer than Kakeru thinks he’s ever been to Haiji.
Haiji’s hand moves from where it had been clenched in Kakeru’s jacket; he wraps his long fingers around Kakeru’s wrist instead, high against the curve of his hand, his thumb curling until it presses gently against the hollow of Kakeru’s palm.
“Kakeru,” Haiji says, eyes shining, his mouth curving soft and sweet and beautiful like the empty road. “Don’t you understand? You make everything seem possible.”

Summary
They sit in silence for another long minute, Haiji’s eyes drifting to the stars again, listening to the quiet sound of Nico’s fingers tapping together, restless again without something to occupy them.
“So if Kakeru is longform poetry,” Nico says finally, “what are the rest of us?”
Haiji laughs, sudden, unaccountably delighted by the unexpected question. He tips his head side-to-side slightly, thinking it over.
(Or: Haiji and Nico talk about friendship and self-worth and belonging, but mostly about poetry)

Summary
He first sees the picture in the paper when he's letting himself out of the hospital, doctor's orders be damned, bandage on his forehead and cuts on his hands and bruises all along his body, and one of his aides hands him the paper and says, "Guess you're gonna have to meet-and-greet the guy who saved your life, sir."

Summary
“Great, so now I’m the only one single in the apartment. How lucky of me,” Mira said in feigned annoyance, earning her a smile.
“I mean if you’re really interested, I know of at least two Saja Boys that have shown interest in you…” Rumi started teasingly.
Mira went wide-eyed and made a vomiting sound. “EW. No. Rumi, GROSS.” She was loud and direct on purpose. “Ew, I don’t even know which of them would be more insufferable."
But boy was she about to find out.
