   Summary

   The war ends.

   Which, unfortunately, means Obanai and you have to survive it.

   Recovery is uglier than either of you expected. It lives in untouched meals and reopened stitches, in nightmares violent enough to tear scar tissue back apart, in the awful realization that the Demon Slayer Corps taught both of you how to keep people alive but never how to live beside them afterward.

   Love, it turns out, is even worse.

   Summary

   Gift for Katonyx! Based on their Kinktober fic "Boxed In" (amazing writer, wonderful articulation. Love them.)

   Iguro Obanai is a dick. This is known. Iguro Obanai hates you. That is also known. You hate Iguro Obanai. Mostly. Mostly you're confused and retaliative when he's outwardly bitchy to you. How long, though, can one disguise lust as hatred?

   Summary

   Obanai spends years believing the scars across his mouth make him difficult to look at.

   Unfortunately, that becomes someone else’s problem the second you see them.

   Companion/sister fic to “Beautiful is Boring,” except this version is significantly more unwell about it.

   • i need everyone to understand that this is romance to ME

   Summary

   Obanai shows you the scars beneath his bandages expecting pity at best and revulsion at worst.

   What he gets instead is your hands in his hair, your mouth against every inch of ruined skin, and the horrifying realization that you might actually love him exactly like this.

   Summary

   Nobody could ever really understand Y/n L/n, not even his own family. Everything about him remained a mystery after he had disappeared from the public eye when he was 10.

   Y/n was known as the ultimate wasted potential all across Japan. He had showed great promise for a new era of soccer when young. His skills and mindset were beyond other kids his age. And people all over were either trying to recruit him or interview him.

   But even with all of that, Y/n still vanished from the soccer world without a word.

   It seemed that the idea of soccer and Y/n was long gone... but maybe, this Blue lock project is just what he needs to reignite that spark.
