    Summary

    To the Cleaners, their bond doesn’t make sense— they don’t know, likely won’t ever know what they went through together, how Jabber initiated and Zanka, in an unhinged rush of stress, pain and desire, met him halfway.

    They’re too similar not to have ended up like this, he thinks bleakly. Maybe it was bound to have happened, one way or another.

    After the loop, Zanka recovers. But recovery is not a steady slope, and before the healing process can begin, all infected areas must be purged. The question is: once all the ugly bits are cut away, how much of Zanka really remains?

    A continuation of Larkspur.

    Summary

    Zanka’s breaths are short and wet– he’s not long for this world. Without his mask and with that gaping wound in his chest, anyone can see that he’s not going to survive more than another minute or so. Jabber sits beside him, giddy with anticipation as he waits for Zanka's inevitable death.

    Jabber gets trapped in a time loop where Zanka dies, over and over. It doesn't bother him- he loves the look on Zanka's face as the light fades from his eyes- until he comes to a few realisations about himself, and then it really, really does.

    Summary

    Back then, they hadn't been entirely sure exactly what visions Amo’s abilities played to her victims, but Riyo's face in particular when the illusion had broken had stuck with him.

    That woman's powers are real vicious, he remembers thinking to himself as he looked at Riyo’s crumpled form on the ground. Real vicious.

    Which is exactly why he hesitates to answer.

    Or, the one where Zanka discovers who he would've seen had he forgotten his mask back in Amo's tower, and how he deals with the consequences.

    Summary

    “Don’t try to deny it,” Komaeda retorted harshly. “Maybe you don’t hate me as much as I thought, but everyone else on this island is disturbed by my presence.”

    “They’re worried,” Hinata conceded. “They never took the time to know you. They’re scared because they don’t understand what goes through your head.”

    “And you do?”

    Summary

    “We have not seen you for breakfast recently,” Sonia tells Hinata worriedly.

    “I’ve been getting an early start,” Hinata says. Nagito chances glancing up as he leans over to pick up a fresh sheet of paper off the pile. Hinata has not noticed him, or is ignoring him, perhaps. His eyes are fixed on the high shelf behind the counter. There’s a little fox family there now, too. Three little kits. They are a disgrace. The Papa Fox has to be discreetly propped up using the corner of a children’s book. Hinata should not have to look upon such trash. Nagito’s fingers fairly itch to hide them away.

    “Do you like them?” Sonia asks, noticing Hinata’s gaze. “They are so very cute! Komada has been putting them around. We’ve been helping.”

    New hobbies, misunderstandings, and Komaeda being Komaeda. Written for the 2019 Komahina exchange.
