Summary
In the liminal hour before dusk fades into night, Kojiro makes his way up to the long bridge connecting Okinawa island to an islet in the Western bay.
Fireworks, in every colour imaginable and a few more, illuminate the sky. But there is one light moving strangely; hurtling down toward the earth as if with a purpose. It’s hard to notice amongst the pyrotechnics, but the light appears to be on course for somewhere in the surrounding Itajii forest, just north of the Fair. Kojiro is the only one watching. He heads towards the fallen light’s landing site, pulled as if by a tide.

A new year brings in a quiet period for Kaoru, work-wise.
The late morning is sun-washed and citrus-scented and Kaoru is bumping elbows with Kojiro where they eat.

Summary
As if to illustrate her point, Santana’s thumb starts stroking the same cheek her palm collided with maybe six hours ago. She nods her head; in no universe is there a good, healthy ending to this. “Yeah,” she just says, because maybe Quinn Fabray’s the only person in the world that can leave her at a loss for words.
Season 2 AU.

Summary
Landing in Fukuoka after a turbulent plane ride with his luggage trashed doesn't have Kaoru in the best state of mind for what might be the most important introduction of his life. Re-introduction, because he'd grown up in the Nanjo house even more than his own.
“I don’t want to be any trouble,” Kaoru says quickly.
“That’s funny,” Kojiro says, dropping a kiss high on his temple. “Usually you like causing trouble.”
Kaoru swats at Kojiro’s chest and his parents laugh.
“I’m trying to make a good impression,” Kaoru hisses and Kojiro looks at him like its the funniest thing he’s ever said.
“You’re about twenty-three years too late for that,” Kojiro teases, scooping up Kaoru’s hand before it can collide with his chest.Alternatively: Kaoru is not the same person he was when he last saw Kojiro's parents seven years ago. He's better now. He's worthy of their son - he hopes.

Summary
When did this happen? When did Kaoru's life become so inexplicably intertwined with that dumb ape?
OR
3 times Kaoru's life would have been better if Kojiro was there and the one time that he is and Kaoru realizes how important his best friend/boyfriend is to him.

matchablossom, canonverse, a little H/C, so sweeeeet.
'“Kaoru. I don’t know what you’re thinking, but before your brain spirals down any self-doubting rabbit hole, you need to know that I like doting on you.” Kojiro’s thumb smoothes over Kaoru’s knuckles in a rhythmic pattern, calming the storm inside him. “I’m happy whenever you’re happy. And I just so happen to know everything about you, from your weird little habits to your favourite sock brand – yes, I know you have a favourite sock brand, don’t even try to lie.”'

Summary
An object traveling at a certain velocity was not always aware of its own destination until it encountered something blocking its path.
Sometimes, the damage was catastrophic.
Sometimes, Kaoru realized, one was not a traveling object, but the obstacle in the path of an oncoming train.
The day of Cherryblossom and Adam's beef, Kaoru decided to wear his glasses.
It changed everything.

‘If he called, she would respond, but he did not think hers was the voice he needed to hear. “Kojiro, I think I made a miscalculation.”’
