Summary
And in thirty minutes or so, Will’s going to be there, in front of him, and he doesn’t know what he’s going to say. ‘Hi Will, sorry we never talk, even though that’s kind of your fault too,’ or maybe, ‘Hey Will, remember when I said ‘best friends?’ How’s that working out for us?’
What about, ‘Hey Will. I’m glad you’re here. I’m lonely every day and I miss you’?
Absolutely not.

Summary
“–anyways, it depends on if I feel like being on time,” Goro finishes, curt to the end.
“Well,” Akira smirks into his McFlurry, looking entirely too pleased for someone who would definitely be waiting no less than twenty minutes in the sun next time. “At least you’re honest.”
(Written for Palette: Goro Akechi Zine, VOL 2)

Summary
Goro had taken the day off, since it was Akira’s first full day back. But it was only 11 in the morning and he already felt... raw, sunburnt, exhausted. It was something he’d expected but had no idea how to prepare for, something that came hand in hand with being in Akira’s orbit.

Summary
philophobia [ fil-uh-foh-bee-uh ]:
(n.) (from Greek "φιλέω-φιλώ" (love) and "φοβία" (phobia)) the fear of falling in love or being in love. The risk is usually when a person has confronted any emotional turmoil relating to love. This affects the quality of life and pushes a person away from commitment. A negative aspect of this fear of being in love or falling in love is that it keeps a person in solitude. It represents certain guilt and frustration towards the reaction coming from inside.
Theo knows what the problem is, but that doesn't mean that he's going to do anything about it.
