Atsushi was new to romance. /is new to romance. He had never thought he would ever be loved much less wanted. The love he knew was carved into his skin, an angry red that has stayed close to his side despite the years that have gone by. Now he’s on his first date with his own love. 

And Atsushi is so sweaty and nervous. 

It's stupid, really. Atsushi was the one to ask out Akutagawa in the first place. He decided on what to do today. He picked the cafe and even paid for their drinks which Akutagawa hated. And Atsushi suggested they go to the park. So why can't Atsushi initiate anything else.

He tries to swallow down his nerves as he stares at Akutagawa's hand swinging next to him. His fingers twitch next to him and Atsushi mourns in his mind because even their shadows are holding hands, but Atsushi can't reach out and hold Akutagawa's.

As he looks away, there's a hand sliding into his. Atsushi freezes up, eyes wide with blush crawls up his cheeks, and watches Akutagawa thread their fingers together. "Weretiger, enough strategizing. Holding one's hand is not that complicated."

Atsushi sighs, rolling his eyes. "I was working on that. I wanted to wait to the right moment," he confessed. He takes a sip of his drink to hide the red on his face.

"There will never be a right moment for hesitation. We can't afford it. I expect that you should know that more than your detective colleges as someone who has cut through time and space," Akutagawa teases, but it's hard to pay attention when Akutagawa's thumb rubs circles into Atsushi's skin and makes his heart dance.

Giddy, Atsushi smiles and swings their hands together. Akutagawa scoffs, but lets him anyway. Atsushi counters, "That's easy for you to say, Mr. Lawn-mower-I-jump-before-I-think."

"Fine, I'll demonstrate."

Akutagawa stops walking and pulls their joined hands closer, forcing Atsushi to stumble into Akutagawa's space. Before Atsushi can say anything or apologize, Akutagawa's eyes flick down to his lips. "I'm going to kiss you now," he warns and that's all Atsushi gets before there's a pair of lips on his own.

When Akutagawa pulls away, Atsushi is left speechless. Meanwhile, Akutagawa looks too smug when he says, "Don't hesitate, Weretiger. Take as you want." He punctuates it with another soft kiss and Atsushi thinks his heart is going to explode.

Atsushi is a good boyfriend though and listens to Akutagawa as he leans in for another and another.

As he creeps through their dark apartment, Akutagawa's feet drag across the floor. A full day of overseeing market deals and an unexpected gang threatening the Black Lizards. Akutagawa couldn't let bugs undermine his squadron like that so discipline was obviously necessary. His bones and muscles ache for his partner now. The coat on his back feels heavy and at 2am, but the dirt and grime from the day can wait until tomorrow morning.

One year ago, Akutagawa had never dreamed of homesickness, but when he opens the bedroom door to Atsushi reading by the lamplight in bed, he is home.

Akutagawa comes home late to Atsushi still awake and reading. Just some feel good bedtime cuddles~

Finals week.

No one has ever said they're a fan of finals week. Higuchi thinks that would be an original thought if someone was actually a fan. It's a gladiator ring of stress and citations. She's going a bit stir crazy studying and doing essay prep and idiotic group project and office hours; it's becoming a bit much. Higuchi lives in the library now.

Higuchi is stressed trying to write her final paper and Louisa shows up with some support.

Treat for @dramaticwriter <33 they’re so silly I loved writing them!

“His birthday comes every year, you know,” Akutagawa comments unhelpfully when he steps into the cafe kitchen. There’s flour dusted from the counter top to the floor in one corner and stacks of sandwiches and snacks shoved into another. There were about a million dirty spoons and piping bags surrounding her with a dirty mixing bowl just out of sight too.

“Humor isn’t your strong suit,” Lucy groans, not looking away from the cake. Her wrists were sore and her eyes were giving her a headache, but she couldn’t stop; it had to be perfect.

Lucy plans something for Atsushi's birthday and Akutagawa helps in his own way.

Treat for @leftoverbriocheloaf <33 I love their shenanigans so much I gotta write more of themmm

There's an air of dust and age seeping out of the walls of binders in here. The metal shelves here probably hold more information than the local library. Sigma would know. They wrote them. After the events of the airport, Sigma woke up with a job. They were instructed, interrogated, and tortured for the record every memory of Fyodor Dostoevsky from start to finish.

All the files are condensed and organized in their humble little storage closet. The survival of all of humanity relies on their ability. Their life's purpose is either in this shitty closet or destroyed with the rest of the Sky Casino.

Their own personal files are a measly two pages.

"Sigma, what are you doing in the storage closet?"

Sigma is caught in a spiral by Kunikida.

(multiple times the agency tells Sigma that they belong + the time Sigma shows they fit right in)

My gift for @littencloud9 <33 This was so much fun to write and wow I love putting Sigma through the wringer! Yay
