    Summary

    “Hayakawa, I told you. We’re going to hell.”

    Outside, thunder growls like a many-throated beast. Aki realizes, as lightning slashes across the devil’s face, that Angel’s expression is something he’s never seen on him before. He looks stricken.

    ~~~

    Aki and Angel get more time than they should.

    Summary

    (There's someone at the door. Topknot still hasn't come home, remember?)

    (I want the strength to change things this time. I'll make a contract with any devil.)

    (There's a woman on the shore.)

    (I want to do everything I can to help you stay alive.)

    (There are bullet holes in the rock beneath the snow.)

    --

    In the moment of his death, Aki Hayakawa makes a contract with the Angel Devil. In exchange for this miracle, the Angel Devil demands Makima's life. The events thereafter remain unchanged, and the Gun Fiend is later neutralized by Chainsaw Man.

    One universe over, Aki Hayakawa has sat up in the street.

    Summary

    On nights like this, the city breathed in red. Sirens stitched the darkness together, neon puddles trembled under the weight of passing cars, and somewhere below the fire escape, another devil screamed its last.

    Aki didn’t hear music—not really—but he heard something in the hum of streetlamps, in the distant subway rumble, in the wind that tugged weakly at his coat. Something steady. Something like a pulse.

    Beside him, Angel stood with his hands hanging uselessly at his sides, pale wrists glinting under the city glow. He looked like he always did during patrol: bored, tired, and pretending not to care about the things he very clearly did.

    Aki breathed out, slow.
    “You ever danced before?” he asked.

    Aki extended a hand—not close enough to be dangerous, but close enough to invite.

    Angel stared at him for a long moment, wings pressed tightly to his back, distrust flickering behind his eyes. People didn’t stand this close to him. People didn’t ask him to dance. People didn’t try.

    But Aki didn’t move.
    Didn’t waver.

    Below them, the city kept its rhythm.
    And slowly—carefully—Angel stepped forward, his hand hovering a trembling inch from Aki’s palm.

    Summary

    “You don’t like your wings?” Aki asked, passingly curious, or maybe just polite.

    “I think I just don’t care either way.”
