    Summary

    Kojiro only smiles, working himself out of his pants and underthings. “I’m taking the rest of the day off,” he says, in the yes-chef voice he might use on his crew. “I’m having a family emergency--” he does so love to be able to say family--”and my husband needs taking care of. So, I’m here, and there’s no use in you complaining.”

    “Oh,” rasps Kaoru, “you bastard, you foolish extravagant bastard.” His tone fluctuates like an old scale, not quite on balance between love and irritation. There is something like a smile on his lips, and all Kojiro wants is to kiss it away.

    Sometimes, sleep evades Kaoru, and work becomes the only thing that matters. His husband, though, won't let that stand.

    Summary

    Sure, maybe Kaoru and Kojiro hadn’t explicitly said that they were dating.

    But they knew every detail about each other – they had a lifetime of memories together (and the photos to prove it), knew each other’s families, had keys to each other's apartments, not to mention the fact that they bickered like an old married couple – their friends really had to be dense not to pick up on any of that.

    Point was, a relationship reveal was greatly overdue.

    Or,

    5 times Kaoru tried to reveal that he's dating Kojiro, and 1 time it actually works.

    Summary

    'Well?' Grell wants to demand, impatient. 'Are you the one that reaps the reapers?' But the only noise that comes from her ruined throat is a sickening gurgle, a fresh wave of blood dribbling from her lips.

    The Undertaker looks at her like some sort of long-lost treasure.

    “Finders, keepers,” he whispers.

    Vaguely, she knows that those words should terrify her. But she doesn’t have enough blood left in her brain to register the feeling. Instead, as he tenderly picks her up with one arm around her back and the other under her knees, just before the pain of being moved makes everything go black, her only thought is how romantic it is, that she gets to die in someone’s arms this time.

    ---

    (Fifteen years after Sebastian wins Ciel’s soul, Undertaker finds Grell dying in a graveyard. She wakes in his bed with a ring around her finger.)

    Summary

    “Jealous?” Sinbad says, voice easily and casually mocking, but there’s something else under there, an undertone that speaks of so many things Marina isn’t even close to understanding.

    “Extremely,” says Proteus, cracking a half-smile, but Marina feels like he’s not joking.

    They stare at each other for a few moments. Marina’s gaze flickers between them. Sun and moon. She wishes—she doesn’t know what she wishes. Her heart is twisting again, but in a different way from before: as though it’s half-empty and longs to be full.

    “Are you saying that you... have not?” Nay, ‘tis surely– not possible. Ridiculous to even consider. And yet... “Ever?
