Summary:

The Fifth Holy Grail War left Sakura with a barely human body. She is loved all the same. (I have no idea how to write smut)

There are just so many small moments I’m noticing that I absolutely love.

First, she goes and sits next to him to greet him as he wakes up when he falls asleep in the shed and oversleeps.

Then there’s this moment where she says she’ll make breakfast on her own since he was up late last night, and he refuses that because he doesn’t want to put that on her.

And then when he can’t, he apologizes to her for not being able to help her.

She always checks their gas valve twice. And just the way she says that and how proud she looks about it, it’s such a cute moment between them.

And finally, there’s this scene with them locking up the house before they go out and figuring out when each other will be back.

Shirou slowly walk toward Sakura, while she tries to tell him how she isn’t worth saving, it all ends in him telling her “Let’s go home”, the differences being that in Spring Song the stakes are higher.

Like, in Lost Butterfly, Shirou is walking towards Sakura and she is telling him everything wrong with her while he just brushes it all off, and in Spring Song she is actively using her shadow magic to attack him, but his body is brushing all those attacks off too.

And in Lost Butterfly, he doesn’t know exactly how to save her, but he’s willing to do what he can to save her right now in this moment, whereas in Spring Song he knows exactly how to save her, and he uses Rule Breaker and saves her completely.
