    Summary

    It’s a breezy Sunday with darkening clouds cloaking the horizon when it starts with one, simple, request.

    “I want you to deliver this to the Mist Hashira.” Gyomei requests, stepping into the space that Genya now calls his room. Ruffled bedding, pressed flowers, and a shelf in the corner where the sun lingered the most dedicated to his bonsai trees.

    “A parcel?” Genya asks, blinking at the small box in the hands of his mentor. He held it gingerly in spite of the bone-crushing strength burrowed beneath his fingers. “And why me? Isn’t there supposed to be a Hashira meeting next Friday? You could give it to him then.”

    Gyomei contemplates his mentee's words, thin lips flattened as he still held the parcel steadily in his palms. The silence stretches for a moment or two long, and Genya fears he may have been too disobedient in the face of curiosity.

    “The Mist Hashira is.. sick.”

    Or, when Genya is tasked to deliver a parcel to Muichirou, he instead finds himself thrown into an array of mourning and healing, all while learning about his feelings for the Mist Hashira, Tokitou Muichirou.

    Summary

    He was gone, B. At Christmas. What, you had to sit here and wait?”

    John B looked up. “That's not what I'm talking about. You were there right? You saw what happened.”

    “No shit.” JJ was on his feet before he realized it. “Dude came in looking for a fight. It’s like… Cut 101. You don’t throw a punch unless you want one.” He shrugged, but it came out tight. “Especially not at my dad.”

    “You’d know, huh?”

    The second it slipped, JB froze, like he wanted to grab it back, but JJ didn’t give him the chance. He stopped cold. Hands curled.
    “What the fuck does that mean?”
    __________

    JJ lives by unspoken rules: don’t mix the Pogues with your family, don’t cry, hit first, and for fuck’s sake never, ever piss Luke off.
    Breaking one was all it took, and the rest went with it.
    Now John B hates him, home is off-limits, and he’s stuck half-frozen on Kie’s bedroom floor trying to figure out where it all went to shit.

    Summary

    Sanji turned just in time to see it, an explosion, violent and blinding, blooming right where he'd last heard Zoro fighting. A column of fire engulfed the side of a fractured building.

    In the space of a heartbeat, Sanji saw a figure hurtle through the upper wall. A green haired figure, swords flashing like dying stars before everything was swallowed in a cloud of fire and dust.

    Or

    Sanji is stuck in a cave with an injured Zoro.

    Summary

    Sasuke finds himself, somehow, still alive.

    So he tries his best to do just that; live. He cooks. He reads. He takes care of the neighbourhood cat. He lays awake, dulls off, wakes up tired. Some nights, he listens to Naruto snoring. And some days, his old friends come over uninvited.

    Summary

    “A far pop and a shrill whistling sound catch their attention and they look up just in time to see a burst of sparkling yellow, followed by another in purple, until the whole sky is shimmering and snapping with fireworks. Naruto grabs Sasuke’s arm and shakes, pointing excitedly at the spiraling flares and rockets that shake the air and bathe them both in dancing colors.”

    Six months after the massacre, Sasuke prepares to spend his first winter solstice alone and drowning in memories. Sitting at the pier, however, he’s unexpectedly joined by another lonely soul.
