MANAGER OKA MY BELOVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[that-was-anticlimactic]

it's like a fire, a stranglehold

When he didn’t answer, Oka sighed. From the corner of his eye, Reki saw Oka drag a stool over to his work space. Great. He propped an elbow on the table, putting his chin in his hand (his stupid, tapping, rubbing, shaking hand) then looked away. His other hand bounced in his lap. “Reki,” Oka spoke again. There was a familiar edge to his voice, the kind of edge Reki heard every time Oka tried talking about feelings, ugh. “What’s up?”

“Nothing,” he grumbled, a slew of cooing following the word. He sounded so stupid. His fingernails gripped his thigh, pinching angrily.

It hurt like hell.

He couldn’t stop.

[or, reki's hands hurt so much & oka helps him out]

Summary: In the middle of his break, Hiromi gets an unexpected visit from Manager Oka.

@flashfictionfridayofficial​

Amaryllis Spray…

Poinsettia Power Charge…

Jonquil Rocket…

Hiromi types frenziedly on his phone while chugging a can of sweet melon drink.

Yes… yes! These are all the perfect skate moves for his next beef!

An alarm sets off. Hiromi examines his phone-screen, resetting it. Only thirty minutes left of his break. He bites his sandwich, wolfing it. Parking in the alley usually keeps him out of sight from customers and the store's manager. 

Ugh… 

Hiromi's heart clenches up painfully.

Why… why, why did she have to love someone else…

His thought stutter a halt as a set of knuckles rap against Hiromi's car-window. 

Manager Oka beams from the outside, waving cheerfully.

The lump of sandwich in his throat chokes him. Hiromi scrambles to get out, nearly barreling into the other man. "Y-You!" Hiromi bellows, raising a finger.

"Hiya," Manager Oka greets him, chuckling. "Sorry for catching you at a bad time. I, uh — well, I had your order."

"Oh," Hiromi grumbles, his cheeks pinkening. "Come around to the back."

He leads, hearing Manager Oka's footsteps steadily behind him. 

"Wow," Manager Oka points out, nodding to the array of bluish-purple irises and snowdrops and yellow tsubaki in a garden-plot. "Did you plant them yourself?"

"Mhm! For special arrangements!" Hiromi says excitedly.

After a moment, he forces himself to scowl and deepen his voice.

"Give me the freakin' order…"

Unfazed, Manager Oka unzips the carrier-bag, presenting Shadow's new custom-made board. "I had trouble with your sketch you provided on the deck's concept art, so let me know if — " As Manager Oka helpfully goes on, Hiromi notices Shadow's personal design backgrounded in red chrysanthemums and several 'birds of paradise' flowers. " — I can redo any of the changes — "

"Did you research these flowers?" Hiromi demands, turning pinker than before.

"Hmm?" Manager Oka glances over the skateboard, nodding. "Sure I did."

"AAACK!"

Hiromi runs his fingers through his tuft of orange hair, nervously sweating.

Love? 

Why would he use flowers meaning love and freedom and joy — AND LOVE?!

"Birds of paradise symbolize warmer climates, don't they?" Manager Oka points out, and Hiromi gawks. "Red chrysanthemums for the deep passion to your interests? Did I get that wrong or something?" 

Hiromi nearly collapses, swaying, tugging his brown apron over his head.

"Erm… it's fine as it is…"

Manager Oka shrugs.

"Alright then," he says, zipping the skateboard in and passing the carrier-bag to Hiromi. "By the way, it's nice to see someone who embraces his masculinity — and at the same time, someone who isn't afraid to enjoy pretty flowers. That's the manliest thing I can think of." Manager Oka eyes him, grinning.

WHH — ?!

Hiromi drops his apron, gawking harder.

"You can surprise me where I work next time," Manager Oka offers, disappearing out the gate with a wink and another chuckle.

After a long, heart-pounding moment of silence, a blushing Hiromi returns in. 

He woozily stares at the ceiling.

Hiromi's face beams.

Yes… yes!

one of the things sk8 did right was manager oka finally FINALLY we had an adult in anime with COMMON SENSE

[aralana765]

Reblogging this for Reki’s birthday!! Happy infinity day and debut anniversary to my favorite son (don’t tell my other children, they’ll get jealous)

It’s Reki’s debut night at S as Sunflower and his birthday! Today marks the last chapter in To Build a Chef, the third fic in my Sunflower series! (It also lines up with the last chapter of To Build a Programmer, fun fact).

Thanks so much to @mediaraiz for the incredible art she’s made for the series so far (2 pieces for To Build a Programmer and 2 for To Build a Chef). It’s all been incredibly beautiful, and I couldn’t ask for better!

[cum-villain]

I was watching the later parts of Sk8 with people this morning, and I had a realization that is probably obvious to some of you, but hadn't really hit me before.

One of the major themes of Sk8 is connections to others: Having people around to make life fun; dealing with the pain of losing those around you; that despite how painful it can be, you have to try again to have any happiness. I'll start off talking about Langa.

The Langa in the show is a Langa who just lost one of the most important people in his life, his father. Because of this, he's in a strong depression. Snowboarding, a hobby since he was a toddler, gives him nothing, because all that he can think of is that he can't snowboard with his father anymore. He's in a new country, far away from everything he's ever known. He's lost almost everything, and all he can really think about is finding a way to help support his mother, searching for a job.

But then, he has something: He meets Reki, he makes a friend. He learns how to skateboard, a hobby similar to his old one, but this time he has someone he has be with again. He's no longer alone in his depression, he has people in his life, and eventually, he can even laugh again.

When he and Reki fight, he loses the person who brought him to this hobby, he isn't happy anymore. He doesn't want to skate just to skate, he also wants to skate because it's a connection to his best friend. When he's in the zone, is all alone, the thing that brings him back to his senses, back to living, is a reminder of his best friend; "Fun", something that he can only have in the real world, the world with his friends.

Meanwhile, Adam didn't have someone to pull him out of his abyss; Originally, Tadashi helped him not be alone, and through him he met Cherry and Joe, but because of Adam's father, they were pulled apart when it mattered most. Adam was all alone, with no way to have fun anymore. And when that happened, he had two choices: die, or find a different way to live. And he ended up choosing the second, putting winning, the value his upbringing beat into him, above all else.

But he didn't actually want this. He told himself that he was satisfied with winning, that he didn't need connections with other people, but in fact, not having a friend was what led him to his despair. The funeral beef was essentially a suicide attempt; he had nothing left, he didn't win properly anymore, so he might as well die along with his Eve. And if Eve doesn't exist, all the more reason to end it. Because "Eve" wasn't really someone he was in love with, it was an idealized dream of someone, anyone, rescuing him from himself again.

And Tadashi ended up realizing this; The crux of what destroyed Adam was losing connections to people, being successful at his hobbies or his career wouldn't bring him any happiness if he was alone at the top. His current method of bring Ainosuke-sama happiness was flawed. So he trusted Adam's happiness to Langa, someone who he thought could teach Adam have connections with other people again. And his trust was warranted, Langa managed to bring Adam back and teach him that it was okay to want friends, that he had people willing to be friends right in front of him.

You see it with other characters as well. Kojiro and Kaoru, friends since they were 5, with the iconic line, "At least we have each other, right, Kaoru?". Miya, who made it big, but lost his friends, and didn't want it at all. Shadow, who skated so that he could connect with his manager. Reki and Oka, who knew they would never be able to win, but that wasn't the point, was it, what brought them happiness was their friendship with other skaters, skating as a ritual of love. And not in the way Adam thinks of it, "love" as something painful and malicious, love as something that brings people together.

[starlightshadowsworld]

So I see you’ve watched Sk8 the infinity! I’m glad you seem to enjoy it! I know you really love Lange and Reki, but is it alright if I ask you about your thoughts on the other characters? Like Cherry, Joe, Shadow, Miya, Adam, Snake, etc?

I remember watching that show when ep 11 came out and I had a brain rot about that show for MONTHS! So glad Season 2 has been announced!

Season 2's been announced?

Damn I be making great timing lol.

Sure of course it's alright to ask.

Ima just get this out the way, I hate Adam. I hate him. I can sympathise with his back story. And I find his past with Joe and Cherry intresting.

But man everytime he's on he's onscreen I am uncomfortable.

I'm glad he regained his love for skating but dear god stay away from these kids.

Snake, I don't particularly like him. But I find him and his motivations intresting. The insight he has into Adam and who he is, the fact he's his mentor in a way.

His entrance into S was amazing. I like how his conversation with Reki helped Reki realise his passion for skateboarding.... Really wish he hadn't taken him into a love hotel for that conversation though.

Cherry is great. I may have geeked over Carla a wee bit, I think Carla as a concept is so cool.

I love how Cherry tries to exude this image of refinement and prestigue... That gets immediately destroyed when Joe shows up.

I love the bond they have, I'd like to know more about their past. I absolutely get why Cherry wanted to race Adam and holyshit that race.

Joe is great. I love how both of them are mentors to the kids, but especially Joe. Seeing him reach out to Reki when he was at his lowest, because he understands is great.

Because as much as they try to paint Joe as a "simple minded gorilla" he's got a ton of heart and he's very smart. And I like that Cherry knows that, I just love seeing them interact and bicker.

May be starting to ship Joe and Cherry.

I love Miya. Miya is definitely one of my favourite characters. He's such a little nerd. I love seeing him with everyone else because you know he's having fun.

There's something to be said that Adam could've become Miya if he regained or never lost Joe and Cherry.

Miya is everyone's snarky little brother, seeing him open up and have friends is just great. When he convinced those women that Joe was his dad and Cherry was his mum 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼.

Absolutely broke my heart when he told Reki he was breaking his promise to him.

Because it shows how much Reki and the others mean to him, he's afraid of losing them. I don't blame Miya or Shadow for their involvement in that.

Was it mean? Yes, but I think they'd have stopped if they knew how much it was affecting Reki.

Because they've made jokes like this at each other constantly and everyone was okay with it. I think they'd regret it if they knew.

I absolutely love Shadow. Shadow went from the enemy to stressed out single parent and we love to see it.

He didn't adopt these kids, they signed the papers and showed up at his house.

He's a great rep for alt people, looks scary but is soft on the inside. His crush on his co-worker is adorable, I love that his day job is as a florist it's sweet.

I love that for all he says he truly cares about them.

And not on the list but Manager Oka, love him. I love how he's always keeping an eye on Reki and Langa. His talk with Reki after the fight, I like him he's good.

Apologises this was quite long 😅.

OKAY MY BEST FRIEND AND I CAME UP WITH ANOTHER LMK IDEA THIS TIME IT'S AN AU

LEGO MONKIE KID SK8 THE INFINITY AU

MORE DETAILS BELOW

So characters!

Reki - MK

Langa - Redson

Miya - Mei

Joe - Sun Wukong

Cherry - Macaque

Shadow - Tang

Manager Oka - Pigsy

Adam - LBD

Tadashi - Mayor

Obviously someone of the characters wouldn't act exactly like their sk8 counterparts but the general premise is there. Yes, DBK is dead I had to kill him for this BUT REDSON STILL HAS A MOM SO IT'S FINE! Also I know some might think that pigsy would work better as Shadow but Reki works for Oka and MK works for Pigsy it makes sense! I'm just now remembering that Sandy would work really well for Shadow but honestly I find it funnier if he was just MK's parent, cause we see Reki's mom so Sandy is just gonna be MK's guardian AND BAI HE CAN BE HIS LITTLE SISTED OMG MY BRAIN! This is making me too happy I'm having too much fun with this.

I think Shadowpeach as Matchablossom works a little too well honestly. I'm just now realizing how similar some of these character dynamics are and honestly I'm living for it. Let me know if y'all want more of this or if you have any thoughts on this au!

Red Splattered Snow

by terminallyCosplay Reki shivered, debating for the millionth time if this was a good idea or not. Honestly, he didn’t want to do this, but his back felt like it was against the wall. He wiped his mouth off and knocked, leaning into the doorframe. It was late, but he could still see the lights on. He shivers, trying to force himself to smile, but he can only manage a grimace as Joe opens the door. “Too late to get some dinner?” Reki asked, trying to joke. Before Joe could even think through what he was seeing, Reki collapsed in the doorway of Sia La Luce. Whatever doubts he had, it was too late to turn back now.  Words: 1895, Chapters: 1/?, Language: English Fandoms: SK8 the Infinity (Anime) Rating: Not Rated Warnings: Graphic Depictions Of Violence Categories: M/M Characters: Shindo Ainosuke | Adam, Sakurayashiki Kaoru | Cherry Blossom, Nanjo Kojiro | Joe, Kyan Reki, Oka Shokichi, Hasegawa Langa, Chinen Miya Relationships: Nanjo Kojiro | Joe/Sakurayashiki Kaoru | Cherry Blossom, Hasegawa Langa/Kyan Reki Additional Tags: Hurt, Abuse, Comfort, Physical Abuse, Heavy Injury, Blood and Injury, Found Family source https://archiveofourown.org/works/57901270

Chubby Tummy

Fandom: Sk8 the Infinity

Paring: Lee!Reki, Ler!Langa

Word Count: 2510

Warnings: Body issues, Self conscious/self loathing issues, mentions of bullying and slight fat phobia.

Summary: Reki inures his leg and that causes him to not be able to skate for awhile and he gains a bit of a tummy he isn’t a fan of. Even after recovering, it’s still there. He refuse to tell Langa but what better way then to tickle it out of him? But when Langa goes to tickle his tummy…

_______________

“What’s been up with you lately?” Langa had asked, his voice laced with a twinge of concern. Recently, he had noticed.. Reki had been acting rather strange the usual. He couldn’t exactly place why. While the bluenette knew his boyfriend excruciatingly well, he could sometimes be a bit of an airhead and not understand certain things. So when Reki started oddly following Miya’s instructions on a diet, and eating normal sized portions instead of nearly matching up to his own portions, Langa was a little weirded out. Not only that, but Reki wasn’t as enthusiastic about going swimming, or he was doing things like insisting he always needed his hoodie on. Perhaps the Ocean-Eyed-Canadian would never understand, hence, why he decided to ask.

Reki gave him a confused look at the sudden question. It was just like Langa, he always asked about feelings for some odd reason.. but.. he couldn’t tell him. He knew Langa would immediately tell him it was fine.. but he was.. admittedly embarrassed by it. He had gained.. a bit of a tummy. And he had nothing against anyone who had a little bit of chub but to Reki, he couldn’t say he was a fan of it on himself. It puckered out just slightly, showing off all the scars he had from skating and patterned with gentle and light freckles over his skin… and he absolutely hated it.

“Huh-? What are you talking about..?” Reki asked back, cocking an eyebrow in the air as he looked at him. Langa was giving him that blank stare that you could only see the concern in if you knew Langa. And oh.. how Reki longed to stare in his eyes forever, but he got quickly side tracked by Langa’s next question. “You’ve been acting all weird lately. You go quiet when something’s up. You haven’t been talking as much,” Langa observed as he grabbed a drink of his water.

Reki finally looked away, his amber eyes shooting to the floor, his fingers were twirling a pencil that he had been using to sketch in his note book. “I’m fine,” he murmured and he heard Langa let out a small sigh, that’s how he knew Langa definitely wasn’t falling for that. Just like Oka, he had gotten way more than used to his little ‘I’m fine’ episodes where he definitely wasn’t. Langa had stood up from the floor, approaching the bed in a certain way that made Reki’s heart skip a beat. The redhead’s back was soon pressed flat up against the wall, the former snowboarder’s blue eyes staring intently into his own.

“Are you going to tell me or do I have to make you?” Langa asked him, and Reki swore his heart leaped into his throat at the threat. Langa only used one method to get information out of him… and that was to tickle the absolute hell out of him. Reki would be lying if he didn’t say he enjoyed it… and he didn’t know why he did. But the feeling of being tickled was exciting to him, so instead of a normal person and immediately running away or giving into his demands, he just stared at him with flushed cheeks.

Langa gave him a look of determination. “Safe word is… sketch,” he said, eyeing the pencil and paper that Reki had been using before tossing them both to the side. Reki then gasped and moved away as Langa cornered him on his bed, the redhead was already giggling like crazy despite the fact that Langa hadn’t even managed to touch him at all. He brought up his knees to his chest so Langa couldn’t reach his upper body so… Langa went for a different route. He gently began to drag his nails over Reki’s knee which caused him to shriek. He slammed his legs down where Langa would then grab one of his ankles, softly scratching his nails over his socked foot.

Reki would explode into high pitched laughter and giggles. He was stupid ticklish everywhere and oh gosh, it tickled so badly. He curled his toes as Langa repeatedly raked his nails down the trapped foot which the redhead swore he was already going crazy. That motion on his feet always drove him insane. He curled his toes as he flopped around, trying very hard to not kick Langa with his other free leg.

“NO- eheheeheh- Lahahahanga- c’mohohon man! StahaHAHAHAP!!” He shrieked as Langa gently scratched beneath his toes, and Reki would snort hard. Even Langa was chuckling now, his boyfriend was so insanely ticklish everywhere and he thought it was adorable. Reki didn’t know this, but he could tell that he was loving every second of this, as he knew Reki secretly loved being tickled.

Langa stopped just to move up and straddle his waist. Reki blushed darkly, and would of freaked out had Langa not almost immediately began to squeeze and gently kneading into his ribs which caused the redhead to laugh all over again. He would twist around frantically, a few times pushing on Langa’s hands to get free.

“Should I try counting? I’ve always loved that game,” Langa asked and Reki shook his head at that.

“Nohohoho- I- ehehehe- I hahahate thahahat gahahame-“ he whined out in reply.

Langa chuckled and began to move down, beginning to stick his hands beneath Reki’s shirt to start tickling his stomach and the redhead gasped out immediately, his eyes going wide. “Sketch!” He almost shouted. Langa looked a little surprised at how.. frantic his boyfriend has shouted it and he climbed off of him gently but fastly.

If Reki didn’t look embarrassed before this entire ordeal… he definitely looked embarrassed now. Shameful even and he wouldn’t even meet Langa’s eyes. It was quiet for awhile, Reki didn’t want to speak and Langa was patiently waiting for some sort of explanation for what happened.. but after awhile of waiting, he gently moved forward. His hand gently caressed the side of Reki’s face… and the redhead’s amber eyes finally gazed over to Langa’s concerned bright blue ones. “Love… what’s going on? You know you can tell me..” he said gently. He grabbed his tanned hand, kissing the back of it over and over again. He would shower him with all the love and affection that Reki would need.

Reki looked away again. He hadn’t ever told anyone just how shameful he was of it, it was so embarrassing to him. “I…” he said, pausing after a few moments.. he was gradually looking more upset about this.. and he looked like he was in an uncomfortable territory. He.. wasn’t the best at expressing or talking about his feelings and he was trying really hard to figure out how to do this. But Langa… oh god Langa, he was so sweet, so gentle, so kind to Reki. He moved forward, cradling him to his chest, gently playing with his hair and Reki would melt into it. He had always loved his hair played with… it was an instant stress reliever.

“Take your time Reki,” Langa told him and the redhead sighed gently. After a few moments Reki pulled away, he seemed.. a bit almost agitated with himself. “But.. it’s.. man, it’s just, it’s such a stupid reason to get all worked up about,” Reki said. Langa was looking at him, still patient as ever to try and get him to relax. “If you are upset about it, it’s not stupid Reki” he told him and the redhead sighed gently, especially when Langa reached forward to card his fingers through his hair. He reluctantly leaned down on him again. It was now or never… he decided to rip the bandaid off.

“I… I guess I was.. eating more then normal when I.. had inured my leg for a few weeks… a month back… and I gained a bit of weight..” he said.. feeling a bit awkward and stiff, rubbing the back of his head, he shifted his position again. “And… it went all into my stupid stomach… I’ve been trying to loose it and I guess avoid anyone seeing it. Man, this is so lame..” he groaned, he was so embarrassed getting worked over something so small and minor. He covered his face with an uncomfortable sigh and Langa couldn’t help but frown. This.. broke his heart knowing Reki had been keeping this bottled up for weeks now. No wonder he had been feeling so self conscious lately. “And… and the people at school…” Reki trailed off.

Langa felt his blood boil. What had people been saying to his Reki? Before he could let that anger spill over.. he decided right now was not the moment and he was going to make sure his boyfriend was okay. “They don’t matter,” Langa said firmly which caught Reki off guard since he typically talked in a gentle tone. The bluenette switched their position, so Reki was on his back as Langa hovered over him.

“You know Reki… when I fell in love with you.. I firstly fell in love with you soul..” he said, gently point at his chest. “It’s so firey and warm.. like the sun. It’s passionate, kind, clever, and smart… it’s fun, something only you could ever remind me of in my darkest times,” he continued and Reki was already flushed. “But what came with that was sometime who matched it, someone as equally as beautiful as his soul.. that has the most beautiful hair..” he said as he gently ran his hands through it and Reki pleasantly hummed at the feeling.

“The most beautiful eyes,” he said gazing into them

“The sweetest cheeks,”

He kissed them.

“The prettiest lips,”

Langa’s lips met Reki’s

“The ears that rarely listen to what anyone says-“

He smooches hen and Reki giggled at that and the joke.

“Your… nice neck..”

Reki laughed at that, Langa couldn’t come up with a component for it, plus he was nibbling on it.

“Okay okay- I get it-“ Reki whined- he wasn’t sure how much more he could handle of this. But he was darker than his hair currently with he flustered he was. “I’m not finished yet though, I have one more thing,” he said, and Reki looked up at him. “And your body Reki.. it’s gorgeous, because it’s yours. I’d love you no matter what, you’d be beautiful, and handsome no matter what. I’d never care what size, gender, or anything you are as long as you are Reki… I’d love you in any form you’d take. And if others can’t see that then they are missing out..” he said as he leaned down and kissed him.

Reki’s eyes were watery… nobody would ever talk to him the way Langa would. Nobody would ever treat him the way his boyfriend did and he was convinced of that. He loved him, he loved him so incredibly much it hurt. And hearing him say those words…. Made him feel good and.. happy. He’d happily kiss him back. After a bit, Langa pulled back, staring at him lovingly as he gently dried Reki’s watery eyes with his sleeve.

“Thank you Langa… I love you…”

“I love you too… now… shall we continue?” He asked, gently tugging at the bottom of his hoodie. Reki was staring at him, his eyes a little wide as he tried to form a response with his mouth. “I-uh-“ he said before nodding. Langa smiled, he just wanted to see Reki laugh again, and he knew this would make him smile all over again. He wanted him to be happy.

He gently lifted up the shirt, and it took everything in him to not just stare at how adorable his tummy was. It wasn’t long till he began to knead his hands into it, the slight chunk on his stomach gently wiggling around with the fingers. Something Reki didn’t realize was this slight chunk was… incredibly ticklish. He was laughing so much louder than usual and his boyfriend was loving every second of it.

“OH MY GAHAHAHAD- Lahahahanga- WAHAHAIT-“ he yelled as Langa began to now tickle the area around his belly button. And wow.. did it tickle so bad… but he loved it. And knowing Langa was loving this, and seeing how he admired his stomach when he saw it sent butterflies to his tummy. Langa really did love him, didn’t he?

He didn’t get much time to think however, as Langa leaned down, blowing a giant raspberry into his stomach which caused him to shriek out into new waves of hysterical laughter. Langa had to say he was finding this absolutely adorable. “My sweet adorable Reki is so ticklish here..” he said and Reki just about died, he loved his hands up to pull down his headband over his eyes to cover himself since he was so flustered. Bad move.

Immediately, Langa’s hand darted to his underarms which was one of his worst spots, as he continued to blow raspberries into his stomach. Reki shrieks and wormed around as much as he possible could. His feet rapidly drummed on the bed as he laughed.

“AHAHAHAHAHAH- PLEHEHEHEASE- LAHAHAHANGA!!!!” He shouted. His laughter was filled with squeaks and loud deep snorts which Langa had to try really hard to not laugh at. Tears were brimming his eyes as he laughed loudly, and Langa would continue this for a bit longer until Reki was silently laughing and wheezing.

Langa then finally pulled back as Reki panted heavily, a giant goofy smile staying on his face. The bluenette laid down next to him, gently kissing his cheek and pulling his headband back up so he could see his eyes. “Feeling better?” He asked and Reki nodded his head. He seemed so much happier than he was earlier. Langa seemed pleased with himself. He was just happy to know he could make his boyfriend feel better.

He reached forward and played with his hair as Reki caught his breathe. The long term skatboarder would more than happily lean into the touch, snuggling into Langa as he did that and they were now tangled in each others arms.

“Hey Langa..?” Reki asked as Langa hummed in reply, looking down at him. “Thank you..” he said softly, looking up at him with a loving look in his eyes. “I really needed that…”

Langa smiled at him gently as he softly grabbed his face with his hands and kissed his head. “I’d do anything for you… you know that..” he told him softly. Reki felt his heart grow warm as he then smooched his lips softly. He didn’t think he could love anyone more then he loved Langa.. not ever. “I’d do anything for you too..” he told him softly. The bluenette would smile on response and wrap his arms more around him as they decided to rest together.

“Hey.. Langa..?” Reki asked again after another moment of silence.

Langa hummed again in reply.

“Y’know how you said you’d love me no matter what form I took?”

“Um, yeah?”

“Would you love me even as a worm?”
