    Summary

    Zanka had always had a particularly sensitive sense of smell, even as a child. It was something he was forced to hide as a Nijiku son, as this sensitivity didn't always work in his favour. Strong, heavy smells would linger in his head, making him dizzy and nauseous, until all he could think of was getting away from them, overstimulated and shaking. His family had seen it as a point of weakness, though it often felt to him that every part of himself was a potential weakness growing up.
    -
    Or Zanka is picky with the smells he likes, it just so happens that he really likes Follo's.

    Summary

    Spoilers for some of the events in the Gachiakuta manga!

    Goka remembers Zanka, small and tiny Zanka with his chubby cheeks and large, blue eyes that held all the naivety of a kid with no idea of the legacy he was born into.

    He remembers Zanka, giggling and hiding under their older sister's large coat while she walked.

    He remembers when Zanka grew up. When he began his training and grasped the expectations placed on him. He remembers his little brother no longer needing him.

    Goka reminisces about his little brother, and what they used to mean to each other.

    Summary

    Zanka has failures and hurts stacked up high, like poorly-filled crates in constant disarray he just can't line up right. It's disappointing. He's disappointing. But eventually, maybe he won't be, if he keeps trying.

    If trying's all he can do.

    Summary

    Mike has finally made it as an author. But writing about your own past can get complicated, especially when fans start to draw conclusions that point Mike in the direction of the person he's been writing about all along.

    And living life is hard. Especially when you're doing it all on your own. But grief and love are a lot more similar than you might realise. They both tend to wake us up from the monotony of our lives.

    OR: Mike has a horrible time, which somewhere along the way turns into a wonderful time.
