Lyrics:

"Stolen? Just whatever do you mean?"

Feigning ignorance today as well? Having made a vow, to you and you alone-- But I'll declare this "loveless" love of mine in front of you.

"Stolen? Just whatever do you mean?"

Committing myself to this performance, set lines and all, Those memories we've desperately created and clung to, They blend together and feelings between us intensify.

Blabbering on about stuff, could you shut up for a bit? Because everything you say is starting to look like a lie. Is there even anywhere left for you to run?

Though really, I guess I'm just as guilty as you are.

1, 2… 1, 2, 3!

Dance away, you li-i-iar! This love has swelled up like a balloon-- Would it turn into a lie with the prick of a needle? Let's find out on the count of "I-Love-You!"

Just let it soak in, li-i-iar! For this love that's grown so old, Go ahead and drain it untill there's nothing left. For no matter where we go,

There's no fixing us.

"Stolen? Just whatever do you mean?"

Feigning ignorance today as well? Having your heart hidden away so that no one can touch it, A thirsty dance, carving that carbonated melody.

"Damn it! You figured it... wait, whatever are you talking about?"

Screwing up time and again is no reason to drop the act, Having fallen into this bottomless ocean, When will you even realize that you're drowning?

Everyone and their mother is laughing at you, Even I've become unable to see you as anything but a "lie--" But somehow I still have these feelings for you--

Ah, yes--I really am just as guilty as you.

1, 2… 1, 2, 3!

Dance away, you li-i-iar! There's nothing you can apologize for now, Since we're already partners in this crime called "love!" Who cares if there's no going back?

It's swallowed you up completely, hasn't it? Li-i-iar-- But turn me inside-out, and I look just like you. It's nice to meet you, "Crime" and "Punishment," No matter what you say,

This love's really gone off the rails.

Dance away, you li-i-iar, This love has swelled up like a balloon-- Would it turn into a lie with the prick of a needle? Let's find out on the count of "I-Love-You!"

Just let it soak in, li-i-iar, For this love that's grown so old, Go ahead and drain it untill there's nothing left. For no matter where we go...

Dance away, you li-i-iar! There's nothing you can apologize for now, Since we're already partners in this crime called "love!" Who cares if there's no going back?

It's swallowed you up completely, hasn't it? Li-i-iar-- But turn me inside-out, and I look just like you. It's nice to meet you, "Crime" and "Punishment," No matter what you say--

Takes place some time following Kokichi’s suicide attempt. Kurochi wakes up without Jaden in bed, but much to his relief finds both him and Kokichi sleeping peacefully on the couch. (Starts with light angst, ends with fluff)

Kurochi stirred, flipping over in bed to reach for his boyfriend, only for his arm to fall against cold empty sheets. His eyes fluttered open.

Head stuffed with morning cotton, he struggled to sit upright. The comforter slid down his torso to pool in his lap, heavier than normal while Kurochi still ran through the disoriented process of waking up. He rubbed the sleep from his eyes, blinking away his blurry vision as if it would make Jaden materialize on his side of his bed. When he didn’t, Kurochi’s stomach knotted.

He remembered the struggle Jaden was going through as of late, how distant he’d been. As he thought of the red flags, fear clenched around his chest like a fist crushing his windpipe. It dragged Kurochi back down into his previous insecurities, how he couldn’t help Kokichi, he couldn’t help Jaden, he was useless to help…

Shuichi thought long and hard about what to get the twins for their birthday, and he thinks he has the perfect gift. (Oumasai, Shuochi, Jadochi, Jadichi)

TWO DAYS LATE WITH STARBUCKS

This was written for day 21 of @oumaevents‘s Ouma Month, with the prompt "Birthday!" Duh, what else am I gonna do on the twins bday? More angst? I mean, now that you mention it...

JKJK xD

This was also written as a gift for FJ! Love you FJ~! <3

Jaden, the boy who rarely speaks that Kokichi may or may not have a crush on, betrays him. In a video game. And laughs about it. Crush totally disowned.

Kokichi cried out in protest as his character slipped off the stage, nudged off by Jaden’s. The Game Over screen flashed, and he turned to Jaden with a pout. Jaden’s shoulders shook with unrestrained laughter, clear proof that the cold-blooded (video game) murder was absolutely intentional.

“Jaden!” he exclaimed, shoving the other boy’s shoulder. “Now we both have to start over! We’re supposed to work together!”

Jaden covered his mouth as if it would hide his mirth. After a couple moments, he signed, “The checkpoint isn’t that far back, it’s fine,” before devolving back into laughter.

Kokichi huffed. “You’re so mean.”

“It was funny though.” Jaden had the gall to not look one bit apologetic for it.

Ship Asks are the real chicken soup for the soul baybee

I can’t come up with memes/quotes myself for the life of me, so I just looked through random quotes until something reminded me of them. Only did the 3 ships mentioned in the ask, otherwise we’ll be here all day.

Jadochi - “A sense of duty is useful in work, but offensive in personal relations. People wish to be liked, not be endured with patient resignation.“ (Bertrand Russel)

This is possibly more general for Kurochi in a relationship, because he has to unlearn his tendency to resign himself to things he doesn’t want to do, because it’s his “duty” to as a partner. It’s very unhealthy, and something he mostly disentangles himself from with Jaden. Jaden is also really patient with him, but not in the negative way mentioned in the quote.

Kairochi - “If you greatly desire something, have the guts to stake everything on obtaining it.” (Brendan Francis)

This is obvious for Kaito, but it’s true with Kurochi, too. It’s just most things that he wants, he’ll suppress/second-guess himself into inaction. But he does work hard and persevere, and he’ll sacrifice a lot for the sake of things (or people) he does care about. So it seems fitting for both him and Kaito together.

Jadichi - “Anger repressed can poison a relationship as surely as the cruelest words.” (Dr. Joyce Brothers)

This song works for Oumota, but like--

What if... Jadichi?

Also every time I find a song where Kura sings something that Jaden can relate to I desperately cry over the fact Jaden can’t speak above a whisper because what if he had this voice????

Writing Prompts

The overhang provided meager shelter for the two of them, squeezed together beneath as the rain rolled over just before them. Kokichi dramatically bemoaned their awful luck, clothes soaked through before they’d managed to get out of the rain. Jaden laughed silently, shoulders shaking from Kokichi’s antics.

Their shoulders were so close together, Jaden’s body heat radiating into Kokichi’s arm. It was distracting, and Kokichi trailed off into silence. The crashing sound of rain on the pavement dominated the world once more.

Unfortunately, their overhang still wasn’t adequate. Water managed to sneak its way through the cracks; Jaden inhaled sharply at the sudden cold on his shoulder, jumping to move out from under its assault.
