In the Form of Letters
'Your eyes, green as summer's rolling hills.Greener than emerald,I feel like I'm richer than any king.But somehow I'm still left wanting.'Chifuyu reads over the note a few more times with a smile. Just like always, the small and neatly typed poem was waiting for him under his shoe. He feels his ears already starting to heat up from a blush and he quickly ducks his head, hoping his hair will cover his reddening ears.If only he knew who his secret admirer is.
Gold Foil
"Marry me." Gojou hoarsely whispers, pleading with him. Suguru's eyes widen as he's overcome with shock and confusion. Suguru had been expecting a lot of things for Gojou to say but he had never thought that a marriage proposal would be it. In the back of his mind, he idly wonders if this is some sort of sick game that Gojou is playing. Since everything is falling to pieces, maybe Gojou just has to have one final laugh. Suguru had always thought that he was subtle about his affections towards Gojou but perhaps Gojou had known all along.Suguru opens his mouth to say no. He doesn't see the point in marrying Gojou. He wants to lash out and tell Gojou that he's already lost and his only available path is a twisted and dark road full of pain and regret. He means to refuse the offer and to tell Gojou to leave and never try to find him but those words die on his tongue when he sees the absolute desperation and panic in Gojou's eyes."Okay." He whispers.
An Aloe for My Darling
Taking in a deep breath, he looks down to the small aloe plant in a green pot. He tells himself that it's totally not a coincidence that the pot is the same bright emerald green as that pretty tattoo artist's eyes. None whatsoever. If anyone wants to try to tell him otherwise, then they better be prepared to catch a fist to their face.Pausing, Keisuke makes a face and contemplates how much of his pride is going to be wounded by turning up to this random tattoo parlor with a stupid plant- which'll probably end up dying anyway. He entertains the notion of just hurling the plant through the front window of the parlor and calling it a day but the idea of his mom crying over him going to jail again makes Keisuke put an end to that particular idea.
Petals Dipped in Ink
"So... what does this flower mean, huh?" He's always been a big fan of romance novels, manga and movies and every time there's a flower shop- there's an all knowing florist who can take a look at a single flower and tell every single meaning it holds. Chifuyu wonders if that'll be the case for this florist.Sharp eyes study him before going back to the bouquet being made. "Hell if I know, this ain't some shitty romcom movie where I know all the meanings of flowers. I just work here, man." Comes the uninterested reply from Keisuke and Chifuyu narrows his eyes. Well, that was a rather anticlimactic answer to his age old question.
A Yakisoba for You and Me
There are only three things that have remained constant for Baji. One, his undying loyalty to Toman. Two, being best friends with Chifuyu. Finally, the third-his fondness for Peyoung Yakisoba.

The Shape of Fire

In this role, you'll work as a galvanized member of an elite team of security operators protecting some of Japan's most critical- Hawks eyes flicker up from the newspaper and takes in a deep breath. He's already read through the job posting enough to be able to recite it from memory. Without a second's hesitation, he pulls open the door.
I. From the Fire I Breathe
Part one of the Phoenix Rising ChroniclesHe curses at his superiors for even offering this job to him, didn't they know how dangerous it was to play with fire? Hawks wonders if he will be able to even pull off this whole double agent thing. Or maybe he should just buy a one way plane ticket to Hawai'i and live out the rest of his days lounging lazily on white sand beaches with a nice cold glass of mai tai.
II. From the Ashes I Rise
Part two of the Phoenix Rising ChroniclesIf one were to ask Dabi when things starting rolling down the hill towards Shitsville he would know exactly where to point in his timeline, saying "There, there is where I should've just stayed in bed that day."
III. From the Cage We Fly
Part three of the Phoenix Rising ChroniclesBreaking out of prison isn't exactly an one man job. Luckily for Touya, he's got some outside help.
Bury Me in a Field of Flowers (and Don't Tell Them That I Love You)
"Tell me," Hawks' voice is like honey- smooth and almost sickly sweet, "What do you like about me the most?" Dabi can see that shit eating grin, even if he wasn't looking at the hero- the smugness dripping off of that question is nearly enough to make him drown. For a fleeting heartbeat, Dabi mulls over how it would feel to drown in a vat of honey. He concludes that it couldn't be the worst way to go.
Build Me a Funeral Pyre

Nodding to himself, he decides that for the sake of pure irony- he will name himself Dabi.
In Time
"Aww, c'mon, Suguru. It ain't that bad. It's not like anyone will notice." Gojou looks over the rims of his glasses and Suguru frowns at the bottomless blue. Sometime between Suguru waking up in Ieiri's office and now, Gojou had gone back to wearing his shades in lieu of the white bandages. When Suguru had asked about it, Gojou just laughed and said it's like old times, having Suguru back so why not go back to the shades? At the time of the explanation, Suguru thought that it was a stupid excuse but seeing him in the shades does give him faint pangs of nostalgia. Right now though, he just rolls his eyes at his reflection in the glasses.Leave it to Gojou to say something so stupid."Satoru, I don't have an arm. I'm pretty sure people will notice."
Asunder
Satoru has never been a sentimental man. He has never held a love for the various homes he's lived in. There's no nostalgic feeling for a long passed childhood spent in the dying sunset's light on a muggy summer evening. There's no want for forgotten friends and teachers.Yet, something continues to yank him backwards.There is a void in his heart, it aches and yearns for something that he finds himself often out of breath. No matter how many times he asks himself 'What am I missing?' he never has an answer.
Of Frost and Flame
Natsuo tightly grips Touya's hand, yanking him back. Even being five years younger than Touya, he still has more than enough strength to stop his older brother in his tracks. A thin dusting of frost begins to creep over his skin, soothing both his and Touya's burns. All around them, a pale azure fire flickers and dances like taunting ghosts."Take me with you." Natsuo pleads, his voice thick from the smoke. Touya pauses only for a second before nodding.-A story where Natsuo runs away with Touya all those years ago.
Eidolon
Floating a meter off from the ground is a ball of blue light with a silvery wisp of a tail. Centered in the core, is a swirling white light. For a second, it hovers as if unsure what to do before it starts to glow softly. Natsuo finally seems to gain control over his body when he has to shield his eyes from the pulsing light. When most of the bright light dissipates, Natsuo looks back up.Taking the hitodama's place, is Touya. Natsuo mutely watches as Touya turns from a translucent silver spectre with flickers of blue that dance around him to a form that looks slightly more solid. If Natsuo doesn't peer too closely, the shimmering azure outline is almost invisible.Touya floats around Natsuo in circles before stopping in front of him. "Guess there's something that only you can do before I can move on to see the light or something?"-In which, Natsuo must help Touya figure out why he's still tethered to the mortal realm.
Sometimes Love Can Be a Bowl of Ramen
"You really okay with this?""With what?" Suguru glances up from the counter, quirking up a brow. It's not really like Gojou to beat around the bush with him."Like, living like this. I mean, I'm not saying that it's a bad way to live but you were one of the strongest sorcerers alive." There's another pause and Suguru can just about hear the unspoken words 'we were the strongest' that hang between them. "Are you fine with being just a ramen vendor?"
Until the Sun Rises in the West...
"Hey," Suguru cuts off Gojou. For a few seconds, he mulls over what he wants to say. "I was serious earlier.""About what? That my personality is like a dumpster fire?""Well, that too. At least you finally admit it." Suguru chuckles. "What I meant was that the girls really do want to see you again. They've been bugging me for the past month." He trails off, hating that this'll just stroke Gojou's already inflated ego.

May I offer you some fan art in these trying times?I don't draw often so this won't be frequently updated
Collections: WIPS

When he's not making sure Dazai doesn't get killed, Chuuya is haunted by hazy and painful memories of a time when he, himself, was a human.
Morning Glory
"I'm just here to get the Avatar." Ryuunosuke's voice is terse and clipped. Behind him, the being stops moving. The silence is only broken by its raspy breathing before it starts to chuckle again."My, my. What an interesting turn of events for me. First a visit from the Avatar and then a child touched by the spirits coming to retrieve him? If I had known that I had guests." It trails off as it shifts again. His keen ears listen as it stretches upwards and crawls across the ceiling. "I would have properly put in the effort to greet my respective guests."
Feathers From the Crane
"Why are you bothering to fold all these cranes anyway? Is it something for school?" Natsuo asks, toeing back towards the sofa that's neatly lined with small cranes. Touya owlishly blinks up at Natsuo and smiles softly."A friend told me that there's a legend." Touya slowly starts, holding the half complete crane close to him, looking down at it fondly. "If someone folds one thousand cranes, a wish of theirs can come true."
Where the Clouds Meet
Tenko will probably always be such a mystery to Oboro. He had found the young boy alone in the streets and covered in dirt and scabbed over wounds on his face. It made Oboro so sad to see everyone skirt around Tenko like he was some sort of little monster. Though, he does have to be honest with himself that the haunting and wide eyed thousand yard stare was enough to even make Oboro give pause for just a second.Ultimately, he knew that leaving a defenseless kid out on the street would only result in the young child's demise. After all, Oboro had always been a firm believer in saving as many people as he could and that extends to the broken orphans of Musutafu's streets.-In which, Oboro finds and adopts Tenko.
In the Wolf's Jaws
Hawks knew that something would always rule him but he had thought it would've been the Commission. Not his heart that continues to thunder against his ribs each time he sees Dabi. Tall, dark, handsome and dangerous Dabi."You know, I remember watching an interview of yours. It was pretty old but whatever. Some lady asked what your biggest weakness was, if I recall. Your answer was fire." Dabi muses. "What a shame it would be if these pretty wings of yours go up in flames." Hawks understands the thinly veiled warning behind Dabi's words. He knows that playing with fire is far too dangerous but when it comes to Dabi, it seems that all of his rational thoughts fly out the window.
