    Summary

    He was just a boy.

    His tiny hand was trembling where it clutched the wrapped hilt of his Nichirin blade, making the pommel rattle against its sheath with the faint, unmistakable clink of metal on metal, his little form swallowed up in the black and white uniform of a hashira, poorly tailored to fit someone so small.  In all of Kokushibou's centuries of bloodshed, the thousands of slayers felled by his hand, driven to him like lambs to the slaughter by the orders of the Ubuyashiki clan and their hopeless war, never before had they sunk so low as to send before him a child.

    He looked so much like Yoriichi, all those years ago.  That sweet little face looking up at him, smiling as bright as the sun, eyes shining with nothing but pure adoration as he clutched that pathetic excuse for a flute—terribly carved by the graceless fingers of a five year old—to his chest like it was some precious, perfect treasure.  ‘I think about this flute you gave me as if it were you, brother.’

    The demon that had once been Tsugikuni Michikatsu took his hand off his sword.

    __________

    Or, how Kokushibou enters his 'father' era five centuries too late and somehow, one by one, adopts a hoard of child soldiers.

    Summary

    “Do we get second chances in this life, Todd?” Neil asks him like he expects a negative answer. Todd doesn’t give that to him.
    “Yes. We do. I know it.”
    “Do you?” Neil grins, playfully elbowing him. “Did you at least wait to take it? That second chance? Until the world was more peaceful? More kind?”

    Ten years after the death of Neil Perry, Todd Anderson wakes up with a second chance.

    Summary

    The bet was simple, if Charlie could steal that stupid stone bust from Nolan’s office within the week without getting caught by ANYONE - student body and faculty alike - then Meeks would have to do what he said for the day.

    In the sea of people, Charlie stood on one of the arm chairs. Charlie spotted Meeks immediately, with the biggest shit eating grin on his face and Meeks’ stomach drops like a stone. “Suck it Meeks, Nuwanda never loses!”

    Summary

    Neil is always called handsome. Either genuinely by his mother, or jokingly by his friends, or even in a haze of flustered giggles by the girls at the annual formals.

    So, when the poets begin to test out a theory that Charlie stumbles upon by accident, Neil finds himself in quite the odd position with one particular boy.

    Summary

    “Should we draw up a contract?” Knox jokes, sitting up a little straighter in his chair, a burst of confidence coursing through him.

    Yeah, he’s going to help Todd romance the hell out of Neil.

    [Knox and Todd make a pact: by the end of fall semester, Knox will be with Chris and Todd will be with Neil. If only life and Charlie Dalton would stop getting in the way.]

    Summary

    They don’t know how they ended like this. One minute, they were whispering as loud as they could about the last meeting, voices ringing with excitement, high on the buzzing feeling of breaking the rules and coming together to, if for naught but a few hours, truly live; the next minute, they were kissing, Neil’s hands coming up to Todd’s face to cup his cheeks as Todd’s gripped onto his shoulders, his sweater, his clothes bunched up in his sweaty fists as they tried not to make too much noise whilst they breathed each other in, over and over.

    Summary

    “Ah, Mr. Anderson,” Mr. Keating says, “do you expect us to believe you’re the only student in Hellton history who sleeps well under that crushing weight of impossible expectations?”

    Pretty much, Todd wants to say. Behind him, Neil sighs.
