Summary
Fire.
Blazing heat rains down from above.
She’s surrounded by flames.
She falls.
A star streaking down from the heavens.
Burned up by the atmosphere, nothing but a certain and inevitable end. Like a shooting star, there is a wish hung on her demise.
Live.
A wish for life.
One that begins with death.
The same dream haunts her in the dark. Visions of her descent, her final moments, of another life perhaps. Her own death.
"Nightmare, darling?" A leather gloved hand carefully brushes a few strands of hair out of her face, pulling her from the throes of darkness, from the inferno that engulfs her.
Kafka.
Why is she here? Himeko pushes her away. This is not how she wants Kafka to see her. Whenever Kafka shows up, they fuck, and Himeko is not in the mood for that tonight. Some part of her wants more than that. But she knows that's not possible, after all, who would want someone who sees her own death whenever she closes her eyes?
///
The three times that Himeko has a nightmare and Kafka is there to wake her with milk for her coffee, and the one time that she isn't.

Summary
Ei smiles softly, and Miko was just about ready to combust into tiny pieces of constellations right there. Here lies Yae Miko, cause of death, pretty girl covered in tattoos with soft smiles and offers her lavender scented jackets.
Or that florist and tattoo artist AU that nobody asked for but I still wrote it anyway.

Summary
EiMiko Modern AU: After a terrible accident involving her sister, Ei disappears, leaving no trace behind, even leaving behind her girlfriend, Yae Miko. 5 years later, just when Yae has picked up the pieces of her broken heart and has the confidence to move on, she spots a familiar face in the crowd, and the life she has so painstakingly built for herself is turned upside down once again.
===
“…the ocean.” Ei says quietly.
“What?”
“I love you as much as the ocean loves the shore.”
Yae turns to look up at a blushing Ei, who keeps her eyes trained on the horizon, refusing to make eye contact. “Because I love you the same way the ocean refuses to stop kissing the shoreline, no matter how many times it’s sent away.”Latest update: Chapter 14 - End of a Tide

Summary
Himeko feels conflicted. If Kafka’s so good at bringing peace at her fingertips and metaphor, why can’t she do the same in reality? Why surrender to a fate that inclines you to kill, blood spilling at your feet? Himeko felt confused, because she’s starting to waver. She has the Express— a family to look after as a mother figure. She has the Express where she can be at an arm's reach in the universe she loves, making wishes at every dying star in the galaxy.
And now she hates that she wishes this becomes real, too. Something that lasts forever.
or
Himeko has insomnia, and Kafka offers to be her companion in every night she's available.

Summary
Kafka doesn’t love. She obsesses, she lusts, she wants and she devours, but none of those are born from love.
Her so called ‘feelings’ for Himeko are no different, no matter what it might look like to others.

Summary
To Himeko.
Breath hitching, Himeko traces over the letters with her finger. It trails lightly over the uppercase 'H,' pausing briefly over the arches of the 'm,' and then digs its way over to the looping 'o.'
That is her name. Someone left this here for her. Someone left a container with her name on it, on a planet that's dying under the weight of its own blizzards; a planet that Himeko has never seen before in her life.
or, Himeko, Kafka, and the letters they leave for each other across galaxies.

Summary
“Look at it from every angle, Ei,” Yae continued. Ei guessed the annoyance on her face still showed. “They send their most powerful spies on an assignment involving a corporation they’ve been chasing for decades. We blow this mission, and we can kiss both of our careers goodbye— I don’t know about you, but I like the cut I get from working.”
Ei closed her eyes for a moment. She knew that Yae was right. Still, she didn’t quite like it, but she guessed that she had to learn to endure it.
“I’ll tolerate these arrangements,” Ei finally said, and she held Yae’s steady gaze. “But I will be warning you once, and once only. I don’t need the company of others when I do my job.”
Yae flashed her a fox-like smile.
—
Or, Ei was tasked with an assignment, one involving guns and a certain partner who only seemed interested in toying with her.

Summary
Yet, there she was, reading a scroll on horn concealment spells down the street while some ill-mannered folks whispered to their partners about how they heard from a friend of a friend that the Raiden Shogun had developed the likeliness of horns.
Big, red, and pointy horns. At least according to the rumors of the common people.
An omen, some Inazumans murmured to one another, that their nation was now entering a state of war or insanity or perpetual animosity due to its nature.
Thinking back to Ei’s easy smile and tranquil laughter around the once-but-never-again isolated Tenshukaku, Yae didn’t believe that even for a second.
—
Or, Yae knew for a fact that Ei had new bloodstained horns, but she couldn't fathom why.

Summary
“I meant what I said,” Kafka replies casually. “Not everything is about you. I could just be here to get my brunch, minding my own business."
“You really expect me to believe that?” Himeko says hotly. “How awfully convenient that you were sitting outside the one restaurant where I was on my first date in months.”
Kafka shrugs. “Coincidences can be so funny when they want to be, can’t they?”
—
Or, Himeko tries to move on from a volatile relationship by going on dates again. Kafka is never more than a few steps behind.

Summary
Between everyday dilemmas of back-and-forth business tosses and overflowing emails, fashion mogul Kafka proves to be quite the elusive—and annoying, competition. Dressed in dry disdain and functioning off of three shots of espresso, Himeko spends half, if not most of the time, juggling between wanting to strangle Kafka or kiss her.
Or: Friends to lovers to enemies to fake-lovers to lovers again(?) modern CEOs AU.
