    Summary

    "In times like these, it’s almost easier to convince himself that this is something he deserves. That’s been one of the most difficult parts about siding with the League so far: being able to take something, even just an hour or two under a raining sky, hiding in a train station because he wants to, and take it without looking over his shoulder for repercussions. After years of having it repeatedly drilled into his skull that his role is to give, to give, to give, the action of taking seems like nothing short of a guilty pleasure. He’d never stopped giving for the Commission. They’d taken his time, his morals, his thoughts, his identity, his life, and had snatched them from his young and tiny hands before he’d even had the sense to hold on tighter. His trainers had called it saving, but Hawks knew better. They’d been taking from him all along- and now, he was taking things back for himself too, little by little."

    Summary

    The Lawson he works at is a small one, slotted between an aging herbal pharmacy and a bookstore. It’s located just off the main street, and there’s a much bigger Family Mart two blocks away by the train station. Between the location, the narrow space, and limited stock, there usually isn’t much nighttime foot traffic, making it the perfect choice for a low-key part-time job, just enough extra cash to more comfortably offset the bills his athlete’s stipend mostly covers.

    All in all, it’s usually pretty quiet and uneventful, and tonight is too until he hears a terrific crash, the soft plaps of a lot of stuff hitting the floor, and a muffled “Crap!”

    Kazuya sighs, and goes to investigate.

    Miyuki works part-time at a convenience store. Sawamura doesn't, but it works out anyway.
