Casually Screaming

this is quite possibly the funniest bookmark I've ever gotten on a fic

A collection of drabbles based off of songs on my 2023 Spotify Wrapped. Each chapter will have tags listed in the general taglist, as well as specifics in the beginning notes for that chapter. Each chapter will include the vibe (Hurt/Fluff/Etc.) so that my friends who don't like angst will know where to look. ---- Ch. 1: It's 3 am, and Yuuta is in Toge's bedroom. Toge hadn't questioned why. Now he doesn't need to. Ch. 2: "You have to choose, Yuuta," Rika says matter-of-factually, her voice suddenly devoid of any of the childlike excitement she was exuding just moments ago as she stares at the road in front of her. "It's me or Toge. You can't have both of us." Ch. 3: But sometimes, when Yuuta watches the easy way Inumaki manages to communicate with their classmates despite his limited vocabulary, it makes him feel so jealous that his chest actually starts to hurt. He wishes, more than anything, that he could be understood without words. Ch. 4: Inumaki Toge is a good person. He would give up that title in a heartbeat if it meant he got to have unlimited quality time with Yuuta.

No one's touched me since Rika started...not until you, uh, tapped me earlier. So, I was just—I didn't—" "Okaka," Inumaki said, shaking his head. They stared at each other for a few seconds before he spoke again, his eyes kind and his voice soft and his face still a little red. "Mentaiko." Yuuta had no idea what that meant. "Okay," he said anyway. ---- After their first mission together, Yuuta confesses to Toge that he's forgotten what human contact feels like. Toge spends the next few months giving Yuuta small touches throughout the day. By the time he's scheduled to leave for Africa, Yuuta still isn't really sure what to make of it, but one thing's for sure: he's not really sure he can live without it.
