    Summary

    It was supposed to be a three month trip to a secluded town in order to observe and take care of any demonic activity. It was supposed to be three months of easy work, consisting more of comforting the townspeople than exorcisms.
    So how did it end up here?

    AKA: Kyoujurou's three month mission takes a nosedive for the worse when his first exorcism fails - sentencing him to suffer through the presence of a rather intolerable demon for the foreseeable future.

    Summary

    One of the wounds hasn’t closed. The worst of it is on Akaza’s back, right beside his shoulder-blade, one end curving over the slope of his shoulder to reach towards his collarbone.

    Kyoujurou frowns. It almost looks like something left behind by a whip, not a sword. He must’ve landed it from above to cover this much skin.

    set after blue hour.

    Summary

    “I found something in the bathroom,” Will bows his head a little, hands on his knees. “Some kinda magazine.”

    Mike stills.

    It’s subtle. Would’ve gone unnoticed to anyone but Will.

    Mike’s shoulder draws back just slightly, as if bracing for impact.

    “What kind of magazine?” he asks, aiming for casual. He almost hits the mark.

    Will watches him too closely, their thighs brushing on the blanket-strewn mattress.

    “Not Playboy,” Will says, quieter now. “At least… I don’t think so.”

    A small beat encompasses the two. Mike nods slowly, taking in this information a little too factually.

    “Were you digging through the drawers or something?”

    There it is. A little too quick, defensive maybe.

    “I… I wasn’t digging,” Will says, maybe a little too quick. Then softer, “I was looking for a spare towel.”

    The cicadas outside seem louder suddenly. The hum of the house presses in around them. Mike looks past Will, towards the stairs, like someone might materialize and overhear.

    Will hates the instinct.

    “It’s not mine,” Mike says, voice quiet, eyes narrowed.

    “I didn’t say it was.”

    Summary

    “D’you ever consider I did it on purpose? I am a bit of an attention-seeker, you know.” Perhaps Mike is drunker than Will initially thought.

    “What?”

    “How else could I get the chance to talk to you alone?” Will feels like the air was just knocked out of him. Of course Mike is joking, but there’s a hint of truth to the statement. He was looking for ways to get Will alone. Will isn’t sure whether this information excites him or terrifies him.

    “You’re nutty,” Will says, physically shaking the worries from his head.

    “Maybe so,” Mike says, “but it worked.”

    A collection of moments between cowboy Mike and saloon worker Will as they start to understand what they want in life. Story set in the Red Dead Redemption universe. Byler Big Bang 2024
