Bonus Round 3: FSTs

FSTs


SASO 2017 is over, but this round is perpetually open to new fills (no new prompts).


Profess your love for your favorite ships with the power of song! In this round, we ask you to create fan soundtracks and use them as inspiration for new fanwork.


Please read this whole post before commenting to ensure that your team gets the most points possible.

RULES
  • Submit prompts in the form of a short playlist (1-6 songs) and a ship from any of our nominated fandoms. Submit only the track listing and a link to where they can be listened to; the idea is for others to interpret what you present. You may also link to lyrics if you would like.
  • Your prompt MUST include some kind of relationship. Platonic relationships are indicated by an "&" between the names (e.g., Lilia & Sara). Non-platonic relationships use "/" (e.g., Lilia/Sara). Please don't say "Any pairing," either.
  • Create content based on the playlists of others! Fill prompts by leaving a responding comment to the prompt with your newly-created work.
  • Fills may be in any form you choose (except for another FST of course) as long as they are inspired by/fit the mood of the soundtrack they are filling for.
  • Remember to follow the general bonus round rules, outlined here.
  • Here is a prompt/fill index for your convenience.

Bonus round shenanigans all happen in the comments below. Brand-new works only, please.

Required Work Minimums:
  • 400 words (prose)

If you see anyone breaking the code of conduct (e.g., causing drama, being rude) anywhere (not just DW), please contact the mods immediately.


SCORING
These numbers apply to your team as a whole, not each individual teammate. Make as many prompts/fills as you want!

For prompts: 5 points each (maximum of 50 prompt points per team per round)

For fills:
First 4 fills by any member of your team: 20 points each
Fills 5-10: 15 points each
Fills 11-20: 5 points each
Fills 21-50: 2 points each
Fills 51+: 1 point each

All scored content must be created new for this round.


Etc.
If you're hunting through the prompts looking for what to fill, a good trick is to view top-level comments only (see the line of links below this post).

Have a question? Check The FAQ first. If you still need help, feel free to contact the mods. Happy fanworking!

oikawa doesn't even show up in this sorry; spilled a little too much poetry in this one

***

Oikawa has always been moving forwards in a straight line, steadily, readily, without hesitation, without looking back. He strides ahead with his head lifted high and large eyes bright with determination. He’s absolutely beautiful when he’s going after his heart’s desires, and Hajime has always been captivated by this boy.

Except Oikawa moves with an unstoppable force, forwards, forwards, pushing harder and faster until he’s always walking on edges, running towards the horizons he will stop at nothing to conquer. Hajime has grown up believing he would always orbit around this star of a boy, but somewhere between the twists and turns of seventeen and those brightly lit orange courts, Hajime realized his centre of gravity has changed. While Oikawa continued onwards, racing farther and farther away, Hajime remained.

And one day, Hajime finds himself alone.

Oikawa’s bags were packed and train ticket booked, only a brief hug and flimsy promise to stay in touch and then he was gone. Their friendship is strong enough to withstand the long distance between them, but Hajime isn’t quite so sure that he himself is.

He wakes up late for the fourth day in a row. His alarm continues to scream, but Hajime can’t find the will the reach over and shut it off. He’s not sure what day it is. Only that it’s been too long since Oikawa was gone.

When Hajime manages to roll out of bed, it’s too late to go to class. He sits there, hair a mess and morning stubble itchy on his skin, staring down at his phone. His lockscreen is still that stupid selfie Oikawa took on their graduation trip, the one where their faces are smushed together and Hajime’s eyes are barely open and Oikawa’s peace sign is taking over half the photo—but Oikawa’s smiling wide, brown eyes sparkling, spelling out happiness for the world to see.

Hajime really misses that smile. It’s not the same through his laptop screen.

He wonders what it would be like if he had decided to go with Oikawa. If he’d tried a little harder, chased him down like he used to, when they were still scabby-kneed brats, with a bug in hand and wild summer energy driving him forwards until Oikawa’s shirt is fisted underneath him. If Hajime had been a little braver, followed the burning fire within his chest when Oikawa told him he was moving across the country, and told him, I’ll go with you. I’ll follow you wherever you will go.

But Hajime didn’t. And Oikawa never asked him to.

So now here he is, in this crappy little apartment because he’s afraid that if he moved, his feet might just carry him to Oikawa, never mind how they’re both grown now and they both lead separate lives. He doesn’t dare move because what if Oikawa changes his mind? What if he comes back? Comes back to me. Hajime can only keep up with Oikawa’s various social media accounts and the tv, respond to Oikawa’s emoticon-punctuated texts when the guy finds the time to send them.

Oikawa has always been a one-way train, the mysterious asteroid speeding across the sky, taking the universe by storm.

But Hajime—Hajime has only ever known how to stay.

Minor discussion of homophobia in the pro sports scene, secret relationships, jealousy.


***

“Kise!” One of the women waiting outside the store shrieked, thrusting a microphone in his face with a wide, hopeful smile. “Is it true that you and Riko are dating?”

“What?” Kise paused, resting the bag of groceries on his hip. His disguise of hipster glasses, a scarf and a hat clearly weren’t good enough to go out in public without the paparazzi finding him.

(Later, Momoi would point out to him that he’d worn nearly that exact outfit in the August Vogue shoot and Kise would realize where he’d gotten the inspiration for it from.)

He usually had a strict ‘do-not-engage’ policy with the paparazzi but he’d met Riko’s father. No way was he giving the man an excuse to come after him!

“No, no, we’re just friends. From high school.” The last addition was made quickly. See? They were long-term friends. Absolutely nothing suspicious.

“Ahhh. So a schoolyard romance is being rekindled?” The reporter beamed at him knowingly. For some reason, Kise had observed, a disproportionate number of the reporters that attacked him were female.

“No,” Kise said again, as firmly as he could while still remaining charming. “No romance whatsoever.”

“Kise, you’re much too handsome to be single,” the reporter practically cooed. The familiar click of camera phones taking photos of the scene was ignored by Kise as he started walking towards his car.

He couldn’t tell them he wasn’t single. Instead, he waved from the window of the car with one of his best smiles as he drove past them. “Have a nice weekend.”

*

KISE DENIES LOVE AFFAIR WITH RIKO!
CHILDHOOD ROMANCE REKINDLED!
KISE WON’T SAY HE’S IN LOVE
OLD FRIENDS AND LOVERS!


*

The newspaper, magazine and Internet headlines were all sent to him by Momoi along with a scolding on how he should never, ever talk to the paparazzi alone! Kise cringed slightly as he read her email. She was the best sports manager in the business, possibly due to her years of experience with managing Aomine, but her sharp tongue even carried through over text.

And he’d thought Kasamatsu was harsh!

The e-mail ended with the ominous postscript: And call Dai-chan! He knows it’s nothing but it’ll be good for him to hear it from you.

Kise sighed and picked up his cellphone. This was the third time this season he would had to swear to Aomine that he wasn’t involved with anyone and didn’t even want anyone except Aomine!

Sometimes he thought it might just be easier to come out. At least then the rumors would end.

(But so would their careers.)

Not sure what I set out to write but this wasn’t it. Warnings for violence, dubcon, sexual assault, lack of proper communication, infidelity.

***

There’s lipstick on Ushijima’s collar and Oikawa has no right to complain. He’s not Ushijima’s wife, he’s not the one who does the laundry.

But he’s never been good at keeping his mouth shut either.

“So is this your wife’s or do you have another piece on the side?” He teases, pulling the collar away from the shirt so that Ushijima can see the faint smudge of berry red.

“It’s my wife’s,” Ushijima confirms, large hands resting on Oikawa’s hips while Oikawa undoes Ushijima’s shirt.

How typical of Ushijima to not deny that he might have other lovers on the side.

Oikawa bites Ushijima’s throat out of vexation while undoing the shirt buttons and running his hands over the wide expanse of Ushijima’s smooth chest. Since high school, Ushijima’s only gotten bigger and more cut. When Oikawa cups his hands under Ushijima’s pecs, he can feel the ridge of muscle as clearly as Ushijima’s hipbones. They practically glisten under the soft lights that Oikawa likes for the bedroom, massive slabs of muscle that feel as hard as marble under Oikawa’s hands.

Ushijima’s nipples are large, almost aggressively sticking out from the dark circles of his areola. Oikawa loves to chew on them like candy, take them between his teeth and gnaw until they’re so tender that Ushijima shoves him away in irritation.

Someone’s been here first though. There’s a delicate little bite mark positioned just off to the left, a swollen hickey of possession. The indent of the teeth is blurred by time but the darker lines of purple let Oikawa imagine a tiny mouth, painted berry red.

Ushijima’s wife has always been an abstract before, someone whom he married for legitimancy, someone who existed to further his career the way he thought every setter should. Oikawa’s never even seen a photo of her before and that one mental image of a small, pursed up mouth making its mark on Ushijima...

His hands drop away from Ushijima’s shirt, leaving it half-undone. It’s still tucked into his trousers at the bottom, his stomach covered by the crisp white linen, and Ushijima’s looking at him in bewilderment.

“Get out,” Oikawa says flatly.

“What?” Ushijima doesn’t move.

“I said, get out. I’m not in the mood for this anymore.”

“...Is this one of your games? Like last week?” Ushijima asks, frowning down at him. His hands tighten their grasp on Oikawa’s hips and then shift, resettling.

He shoves hard enough that Oikawa lands on his back on the bed, bouncing for a second from the force with Ushijima had pushed him.

“No--” he has time to say before Ushijima’s on him, crushing him with his weight, trapping Oikawa between the bed and his chest. Ushijima’s mouth presses against Oikawa’s as if he wants to devour Oikawa mouth-first; it’s a sloppy kiss, Oikawa trying to wrench away from it and bite at the same time, but Ushjima seems satisfied.

Pleasantries over with, Ushijima tears at Oikawa’s pyjama bottoms. On the mornings Ushijima’s coming over, Oikawa doesn’t bother getting showered and changed. He’s always saved that for _after_ they’re done.

He regrets that now but it’s too late to change it.

When he starts fighting in earnest, he realizes within seconds it’s useless. Ushijima is simply too big. Oikawa’s flailing arms and legs have about as much effect as a stuffed toy being used to break down a wall. He’s wasting his energy and doing nothing to defend himself.

“Waka-chan!” He snaps and hates himself for the note of panic that’s infected his voice. “Stop!”

Safeword, what was their safeword --

“Karasuno!”

Ushijima freezes and draws back, taking his weight off Oikawa and standing at the foot of the bed instead.

“Tooru?” He asks, looking down at Oikawa gasping for breath and scrubbing at his face with his knuckles.

“Get out!” Oikawa says again and this time, the fear on his face is so obvious that Ushijima obeys.

Ushjima leaves his jacket behind. Oikawa will have to find some way to get to him.

That thought is enough to send him into half-hysterical laughter that all too soon turns into hysterical sobbing.

How could have been so stupid?!

(How could he ever forgive himself?)

Himuro can't stay away no matter how hard he tries, and he doesn't know why it's Aomine, of all people, that pulls him in the way that he does, but there's no use in fighting it. He knows, because he's tried.

It's the potential, he thinks to himself. Potential for something really good, or really bad, Himuro isn't quite sure which just yet, but he's willing to explore it anyway, in the form of stolen kisses when no one else is looking, hiding in the corners of sports centres when their teams are playing in the same place, holding onto each other like they're trying to hold onto smoke and mist. It's impossible, it's bad, and Himuro can't stop himself all the same. Not when Aomine lets out a shaky breath, right against Himuro's mouth and their fingers curl a little more against each other's skin, short, blunt nails digging into skin without actually breaking it, just enough to leave temporary marks behind that will be gone by the time they've both gone their respective ways back home.

Himuro runs his tongue over his lip, finding himself ridiculously pleased with the fact that Aomine thought to bite it the last time they were together, just two days ago. The actual pain from the bite is gone already but the memory of it still lingers and Himuro won't let it go, digging his own teeth into the exact same spot like he can recreate it, sucking on it, even though he knows that it's not going to be anywhere near as satisfying this way.

"You're slipping, Captain," Aomine teases when Himuro calls him. "The way things used to be, you could at least pretend to stay away from me until the next time we actually saw each other. Are you missing me that badly already?"

Himuro sucks on his lower lip a little harder and blatantly lies, "I'm not missing you at all."

"You're thinking about how we kicked your ass, then." Aomine is grinning on the other end of the line, and Himuro is still getting his head around the fact that he can actually tell, just by listening to his voice.

"It was a practice match," Himuro replies. "I won't lose next time."

"You can't beat me," Aomine says, and there's no bluster to his voice. He's just stating the facts as they are. "You can try as many one-on-ones as you want, though. You're interesting enough."

"Interesting enough." Himuro laughs. "Just what I always wanted to hear."

"You're plenty interesting, on the court and off the court too," Aomine murmurs, his voice pitched a little lower, and it makes Himuro shiver.

"Next time," Himuro says, as if they're not already planning to drag each other off somewhere private the next time they cross paths.

"Yeah," Aomine agrees. "You can count on it."

I used to listen to Hikari no Saki and Arigatou ALL THE TIME back when I was super into PoT, holy crap, it's been so LONG

Also I'm just realizing how hilarious those songs are because they sound so TENDER but then you look at Ryoma and Tezuka's normal characters and there is... a difference.

At the same time I'm laughing so hard at the tenimyu because it's so much more real...

Btw thanks for reminding me that Junko Minagawa will be my queen forever and always because her voice will never stop being my favorite

I'm not entirely sure how I ended up here, but this was the first thing that came to mind when I listened to Days of Moments.

***

By night, Taka walks the streets, one hand by his sword. The streets are not nearly so crowded as they are during the day, but the people who are out at the late hour are not necessarily ones Taka would like to meet. He fears the streets at night, but the streets also fear him, for he carries a cursed blade. He rarely draws it, but when he does, it refuses to return to its scabbard until it has tasted blood. So cursed are the blades of the smith Muramasa that the shogun himself has banned his retainers from carrying any of his works.

Taka doesn't care about such regulations. If it makes others less willing to test him, he'll carry the cursed blade. He doesn't like fighting after all, and he's not so close to the shogun that anyone will raise issue over his sword. Out here, in a small town far from Edo, he's not even sure how many would recognize Muramasa's signature on his blade.

He walks alone down the streets, past the shadows that lurk in alleys, waiting to jump on an unsuspecting traveler until they see who it is and fade back deeper into the darkness. He walks alone, but sometimes he thinks he feels another presence with him. It's something almost like a ghostly touch, but he doesn't feel any of the fear he feels at the thought of ghosts and demons. Sometimes he suspects it's a kitsune, but he assumes a kitsune would get up to more mischief, and he can't imagine what about him would attract the attention of such a creature. Whatever it is, it stays silent and hidden, making its presence known only in subtle whispers of wind and an occasional rustle of cloth.

As the months drag on though, Taka thinks he's seeing more and more of the apparition. He's not sure what to make of it, but it doesn't seem to threaten him. Maybe it's just the long, lonely nights getting to him, but sometimes, when his mind starts to wander in the last hours before dawn, he thinks he sees a scrap of fabric on the wind, an ornate brocade that flickers back out of sight as quickly as it appears. Other times it's flash of fur, as red as autumn leaves or white as snow.

It's not until one night, when he finds himself in a fight he doesn't think he'll win, that he finally sees his companion in their true form. He's walking home after his patrol, the bell having just tolled the seven strokes of the hour of the tiger, when he's ambushed by six men. He draws his sword in an instant, his blood boiling in response to the sword's power, but even as strong as he is, he struggles against the six ronin. An opponent's blade bites deep into his arm, and he barely keeps hold of his own.

Even with a shorter blade in his other hand, the tides quickly turn against him. He's certain he's going to be defeated when there's a sudden flicker next to him, and then there's a kitsune at his side. The kitsune is far more beautiful than he imagined, dressed in rich robes over russet fur capped with white. Taka wants to tell it not to get involved, not to risk sullying itself with the dirt of the street and the blood of battle.

But then the kitsune opens its eyes to smile at him, and he's lost in the deep, deep blue that seems to hold the universe within it. Any complaint he may have made dies on his lips. The kitsune is a beauty to watch, as deadly as it is graceful, and Taka barely gets in another strike in the fight as the kitsune brings down the ronin in a heartbeat.

Then the kitsune turns to him, and to the blood dripping from his arm. Before he can stop them, the kitsune tears a long strip from his own clothes and uses it to bind the wound. Taka sucks in a breath, unsure whether it's from pain, or from the kitsune's touch and lingering gaze. He's not sure what to say. What does one even say when faced with such a creature?

"We meet at last, Kawamura Takashi," the kitsune says. "Though I wish it could have been in better circumstances."

Taka is speechless, staring until the kitsune pokes him in the small of his back. "Resheathe your sword, proud samurai. It's time you went home. I will accompany you, if you would permit."

I am not 100% sure what sort of explicit you were after but this might not be it? Warnings for a little torture, blood, self-harm, gore, demon/angel religious stuff, general darkness.

***

“Why did they let you come down here?” Midousuji asks, turning his head to watch Manami prowl. His glittering wings are spread to their fullest extent, shining like glass in the second before shattering, and the glow of holy light that illuminates each feather is painful for Midousuji to look upon.

So of course he looks. Of course he stares as his eyes start to burn.

“Some demons are so loathed, even by their own kind, that nothing but an angel’s touch will serve to punish them,” Manami says in return. The instruments of torture are laid out neatly on shelves with buckets of cleansing acid to plunge them into if they should grow slippery with blood. The variety is really quite impressive - but useless.

He turns and the pity in Manami’s smile scalds Midousuji worse than acid ever has. “And since we were so intimately connected in life--”

“Is that how you angels talk about it?” Midousuji asks, jaws opening wide to let his teeth chatter together in the way that had so terrified the living. Manami watches calmly, his hands resting at his side. “Fucking turns into an ‘intimate connection’?”

“Do you miss intimately connecting with me?” Midousuji grins, wide and reptilian, his lips stretching thin above sharp teeth with red gaps where some of them had been wrenched out.

“No. Angels are incapable of such desires.” Manami’s tone is even but there’s a slight smile on his lips as he approaches. He lifts one hand ceremoniously and like a benediction, rests his palm against Midousuji’s cheek.

The reek of burning skin immediately fills the air. Angels cannot touch something so corrupt without being burnt by it. Demons cannot be touched by something so pure without being burnt by it.

This is why angels rarely accept the requests to torture demons, no matter how much the demons might deserve it. They cannot inflict pain without suffering equally.

The skin cracks and peels away from Manami’s hand and he sighs.

Midousuji doesn’t scream either. He laughs, wild and exultant, even as his body thrashes against the rack.

“Heaven hasn’t changed you too much. You still enjoy this.”

“Yes,” Manami admits with a beatific smile, pressing his hand down harder so the skin grows raw and wet, splitting open to give away to scorched flesh. “Oh, yes.”

He leans down, seals his lips against Midousuji’s and smiles as his mouth sears black and bloody.

The intimacy of their connection in life was never about sex but pain.

Kise knows how easy it is to hide behind a pretty face, a laugh or a smile that isn’t quite so real but enchanting anyway. He knows sleight of hand, sleight of voice; he knows all of Himuro’s tricks and yet, there are parts of him that Kise can’t see through no matter how much Kise turns up the charm and tries to needle them out of him. It’s vexing; Kise’s not patient and he’s not used to dealing with people resisting more than a token amount. But then, if he knows how Himuro operates it goes both ways to an extent.

Himuro doesn’t call him on it; he pushes back with the sense that there are teeth that he’s hiding, guarding; Kise’s daring him to bite and draw blood, show what’s under this porcelain mask. Himuro defers, demures, pushes again, but he’s going about it all wrong. For someone like Kise, that’s only going to spur his determination on. Maybe other people leave well enough alone, but Kise’s just going to keep chipping away, pulling back like he’s digging in his heels at tug of war.

Himuro lets him stay over at night, falls asleep first, shadows of his lashes on his cheek (he’s let Kise see his other eye at least, but that seems to make him even more inscrutable, tricky like a layered puzzle, simpler at the crust of it). He drapes his arm over Kise’s waist, and it means nothing when he turns away in the morning.

Kise wakes up, cold with a dry throat; Himuro’s sitting up and he freezes like a feral cat at the top of a wall, just a microsecond before he oh-so-carefully pretends to relax. Kise’s sick of this shit. He pulls himself up into a sitting position, pulls the covers away from Himuro and wraps himself in half. Himuro looks tired, leaning on tense arms, light from the street casting streaks across his face.

“We’re never getting anywhere if you don’t let me in,” Kise says, leaning his head on Himuro’s shoulder.

Himuro’s body is still tense, as if in releasing it everything would crack, and maybe it would; maybe he’s held together with cheap glue.

“Everything about me’s boring,” says Himuro, a lie so unconvincing Kise’s almost impressed he’d tried it. “What if I don’t want you to get tired of me?”

His tone is too light, a loose piece of paper flying away in the wind.

“The only thing I’m tired of is this,” says Kise.

Ren’s so clueless about his own feelings.

***


Abe is the most amazing person in the world. No matter what he says about Ren's control being the real deal or how Ren is the star ace of the team, Ren knows the truth.

It's Abe who keeps it all ticking along. It's Abe who tells him what to throw. It's Abe who stands up for him against bullies. It's Abe who makes sure he eats enough and sleeps and it's Abe who talks him through the panic attacks and gets him to calm down.

Abe is the center of Ren's world and has been ever since high school started.

It's so natural to Ren that he doesn't even realize when hero-worship develops into something more.

At first, it feels harmless to always be watching Abe. Abe is better at social situations than Ren is! He knows how to act and how to talk to people so they don't get mad at him. As long as Ren sticks close to Abe, Abe will cover him too and the group will accept him as being part of Abe, like an extra arm that knows how to throw.

Watching him in class is a little different though. Ren doesn't need to watch Abe then. He should be watching the teacher and learning from him, but Abe sits right next to Ren and Ren can so easily look sideways at Abe without getting caught.

Maybe it's just because of his trust in Abe, Ren thinks to himself hopefully. Maybe he looks at Abe so much because it helps him to calm down. Abe is soothing, a constant promise that no matter what happens, there's one person in the class who'll have Ren's back!

He tells himself that's it and when he catches himself glancing at Abe in the locker room when they're changing, he rationalizes it as being interested in how his growing adolescent body compares to Abe. There's nothing strange about comparing yourself to your idol. Everyone does it.

But then his stomach starts to flip when he sees Abe and he can't figure out why. He's not nervous around Abe anymore and he certainly isn't scared of him! So why does his stomach act so strange? Why does it flip even more when Abe smiles instead of when Abe's angry?

His old habits start to resurface, Ren growing even more on edge as his reactions become more pronounced and strange. Sometimes just being around Abe is enough to make his heart start pounding like the pre-clude to a panic attack; Abe putting his arm around Ren has gone from being helpful to starting his heart jack hammering.

Ren doesn't want to admit to himself that he knows what's wrong.

He just wants to fix it before it spoils the best friendship he's ever had.

the world is burning around them, and yet kuroo raises his glass toward the barkeep and shouts, "get us another round!"

"how are we supposed to fight tomorrow if you're going to make us drink ourselves sick?" daichi teases, yet he's throwing back the last of his drink.

"live a little daichi!" it's nishinoya who claps his hand hard on his back before leaning back to his original spot molded to ennoshita's side. "when else are we gonna get the chance?"

"he's right for a squirt." kuroo places down fresh drinks, ignoring nishinoya's protests. "i thought you'd know all about living a little."

daichi tries to hide the smile curling on his lips, but he can't help himself. not when kuroo being so close eggs on the alcohol warmth burning through his veins. unlike nishinoya and ennoshita whose he's known for a while in this town, popping in and out of his employer's shop, kuroo hails from across the ocean. he's still getting accustomed to life here, and yet he's not so different from them at all. he fit right into their group as another misfit looking for the same kind of fight and glory, ready take the chance and play the risk around the war the world has so readily presented to them. daichi can't help but like the guy for that.

"i'll be living longer if the general doesn't find us hungover or late." daichi takes the fresh glass from kuroo, cocking an eyebrow at him as the other two laugh from across the table.

they all know it's not the general or the hangover that any of them actually fear. it's not knowing what horrors will show up tomorrow, or if they'll live to see the end of it - daichi can see it in how nishinoya slips an arm behind ennoshita, feel it when kuroo scoots a few inches closer.

"a toast," ennoshita says, leaning forward, "to the four of us, to tonight!"

it's the perfect kind of moment, daichi thinks as the sound of clanking glasses rings through the bar. he closes his eyes as he drinks cold beer and prays that he never forgets this. no matter what happens, he wants to remember his longtime friends happy across the table, of his new friend shoulder to shoulder with him, giving him a grin like he's ready to promise him the world as long as they make it.

god, daichi really hopes he makes it.

***

Emperor of Creation is almost halfway through their winter tour, and Chihiro is ready to go home. He's fundamentally not cut out for this part of being in a moderately successful rock band. The first time they went on the road, he practically begged to be replaced by a touring guitarist, but as usual, Akashi wouldn't take no for an answer.

Today he's hiding on the bus, where it's quiet and hopefully no one will talk to him until it's time for sound check later. Of course, those hopes are dashed when he's pulled out of the novel he's reading by the sound of the bus door opening, and then the sound of footsteps, and then the sound of Akashi.

"Chihiro," says his lead singer.

Chihiro closes his book, but doesn't reply. Five, four, three, two– and as expected, Akashi pushes the curtain of Chihiro's bunk aside and climbs in next to him. Akashi has never had any respect for Chihiro's personal space, onstage or off.

In a recent and horrifying turn of events, Chihiro's finding he doesn't really mind it as much as he used to.

The rest of the band is... somewhere. Probably off with one of the other groups on the tour. Maybe the guys from Kirisaki. He thinks Reo mentioned something about knowing their frontman.

"You didn't sleep last night, did you?" Chihiro asks, and it's not a real question, because Akashi's left eye is a little bloodshot and the way he almost snuggles against Chihiro's side screams I'm exhausted and losing my inhibitions and probably on the verge of breaking down, again, if I don't start taking better care of myself.

Akashi doesn't bother answering. "Are you busy? I want to write."

"Why would I be busy," Chihiro says, monotone and caustic. "Fine. Give me your notebook. I had a piece of something in my head this morning anyway."

Maybe he should feel special about being the only one allowed to touch Akashi's songwriting notebook. Mostly it's just a reminder that Akashi is getting under his skin, like... a tick. Or an IV. Something sharp and unsolicited. A piercing needle, his lyricist brain supplies. Leaving something for you to remember him by.

(It's also a reminder of how apparently notebook-touching privileges are a special perk that come with being The One Who Was There To Talk Akashi Down From Doing Something Really Stupid.)

Akashi is practically wrapped around him now, their bodies fighting for bunk space. When he hums a few notes to match the words Chihiro is scribbling in the margin, Chihiro can feel the vibration against his ribs, and wishes he could hate it.

---

When Reo comes back to the bus to do her makeup and corral her bandmates for sound check, she finds Akashi and Mayuzumi both asleep, tangled up in each other like they're afraid to get close and even more afraid to let go.
