    Summary

    Kaoru thought he was over getting all weird and emotional at random times just because something reminded him of his mom, but Souma can't seem to stop making his life more difficult.

    Summary

    Was it a form of personal torture, keeping him around? It seems less like Natsume is the ghost of the past he promised to be and more that he is the haunted. But Tsumugi is more disturbed than he is, and that uncomfortable fact is what pushes him to speak up from where he sits leaning on the bookshelf.

    "I don't understand why you don't hate me."

    Summary

    "Unperturbed, Souma sallied forth as always. 'I fear you have forgotten something. Your tea will begin to separate at this rate.'

    '...Are you being serious?'

    'As ever.'

    Souma leaned in close to Adonis, tucking his arms into his body, soft noises leaving his mouth as he adjusted himself. 'I had said that it would be wrong of me to not grant you a proper tea ceremony. And I would like to help you become more comfortable with staying in seiza. What better way to do so than to incentivize you in this way?'"

    --

    Souma helps Adonis practice his seiza on a hot summer's day.

    Summary

    Rei can’t acknowledge it, not for longer than the sliver of a second. He’s a weak man on his best day, and that’s certainly not now, with Ritsu touching him, lying prone beneath him, offering what he wants so willingly. There are too many risks, too many other forces at work to indulge in their private vices here, he tells himself. He’s doing what’s best for both of them.

    Ritsu can tell what he’s thinking. He knows him too well, every sensitive spot on his body committed to spiteful memory, and Ritsu’s never hesitated to aim his blows low.

    “Aah, I see how it is. Anija’s too busy for me again, right? You’ve got lo~ts of new friends you’d rather hang out with instead of your lame little brother. What am I supposed to do? I really would be better off throwing myself at some geezer— at least he’d touch me.”

    Summary

    “Of course.” Natsume says, passed over again. He’s already tuning out whatever empty platitude Rei’s plying him with as he steps around him, out of his sight before he can think up a reason to make him stay.

    He swallows the ache down, ignores the acid on his tongue, and retreats to the safety of darkened rooms.
