as i was reading, couldn't tell at first which of them the "you" was -- but i started to suspect that it was miyuki, and then this cinched it for me:

and, actually, saying that he "made" himself a fixture—that's not totally fair, considering you let him do that, considering it was never a one-sided process. let him get close, let him see you, the bits and the pieces and the cracks, let him become someone you turned to and relied on and looked forward to seeing—

that's just so *miyuki*! i almost wish you hadn't explicitly said kuramochi's name, because the voices were so clear. :3

such a great read, in any case!
