Favourite fanfic about the killugons?

A mischaracterisation about them that is very annoying? Do you like their hairstyles with their hair down? How did you meet them in the first place? Your first impression of them vs. today's impression of them?

oh anon it's very hard to pick a favourite HAHA but i wanna plug Dreams Like Water, Like Wind by xyliane again, I read it all in one afternoon and it made me feel so many things ;w; (I really should re-read it, it's got everything you love to see: strong slowburn killugon, gon risking it all to save his something-more-than-just-a-friend....sigh i love them)

and well. okay i wrote like several paragraphs about what my personal hcs are for gon but deleted it all. BUT all i need you to know is this: gon is way more selfless than the gon haters make him out to be. this boy is full of love and trauma

i tend to stick to gon and killua's canon hairstyles cause i think gon's spikes are a hilarious contrast to killua's soft fluffy hair, but i like seeing other people's art of them with their hair down, especially gon!

and first time seeing fanart of hxh was from an old deviantart user I followed, I cannot for the life of me remember their username now but they made some pretty sweet art of gon and killua being besties hanging out in a forest, and this was back in 2011. I tried picking up the anime in 2013, but stopped on ep 3 right before killua showed up (tragedy!!!). when i finally watched the entire show through in 2018 i was sold for life!

first impressions of gon and killua after watching the show fully: oh my god they are lovers who don't really know what word to use for describing their relationship yet. my fucking god. they are a pair do not separate (and when they did separate in canon i remained hopeful that it wont be a permanent one)

current impression: they really are the best shounen m/m pairing of all time!!!!! i haven't seen much else that could rival them (controversial take but true to me. i love plenty other ships but nothing's been the same as them).
