Summary
Are we living a life that is safe from harm? Of course not. We never are. But that is not the right question. The question is: are we living a life that is worth the harm?
Kaneki Ken loves medicine.
He loves his father's old textbooks. He loves the colorful anatomy diagrams. He loves the rhythm of scientific articles, the shape of words like 'fossa' and 'muscular dystrophy'. The research projects/work shifts/studying/crying don't leave time for Kafka, but those books were for creepy little orphans, anyway. Which he isn't anymore, because he's not a kid anymore, because soon, he'll never be that kid again.
The world is hurt or be hurt. It is better to be hurt than to hurt others. But to be a doctor is to heal hurts without hurting yourself. To be a doctor is to be free.
Kaneki Ken is growing up. Kaneki Ken is moving on. Kaneki Ken will become a doctor or die trying, because hope is a thing with teeth and he'd bite through his tongue before going hungry ever again. And god help anyone who gets in his way.
aka: an au in which kaneki ken is premed instead of a lit major, with mixed but (ultimately) uplifting results
cw: suicidal ideation.

Summary
Kaneki Ken's life wasn't easy. After all that has happened physically and psychologically he departed from the world, others would call him cruel and cold, a monster, but inside he was just a person. A person who needs love, a hug, a caress, someone telling him that everything was going to be okay and he wasn’t going to be alone. All he ever wanted, all he needed, was a family. A family.. with a touch of purple.

Summary
There is nothing quite a horrifying as seeing someone you trusted turn into a monster.
Of course, that is exactly what Urie sees.
He sees ghosts and ghouls and men pull each other apart. He sees the horror that Aogiri Tree scatter. He sees the volatile nature of a person's quest for power.
Urie Kuki sees may strange things.
Though none so strange as the Akako.
[this isn't likely to be updated, but i'm not deleting because i still really like what i've written - even though later canon characterisation no longer fits this]

Summary
"If only Kaneki had consumed all the energy that surged within Tsukiyama's veins, he could have reached an unimaginable level of power, he would have been invincible-- He would have been perfect."
