Four times Gon survived (and the one time he didn't) by arienai

Summary
Under the light cast by the torches that ring the shattered tower in which Gon at last comes face-to-face with Pitou, Killua stands in his shadow.
And speaks.
What if, at the precipice of the most calamitous event of their young lives, Gon made a different choice? One that alters his and Killua's fates forever.
1. Retribution: The other Ants learn to avoid Gon when Pitou takes him for his walks.
2. Intimacy: "Hey Killua," Gon tells him as they watch the stars, "Let's go to the Dark Continent."
If a simple change of scenery has done this much, a trip to uncharted territory should heal them both.
3. Mercy: "Killua," says Gon as Killua turns to leave, "Thank you."
4. Loss: Morel cradles something wrapped in Knuckle's jacket, something that seems much too small to be what it is until Gon sees Killua's shoes.
5. Hope: Gon asks Killua if he would make a good fisherman.
They plan to meet again on January 1st.
Companion fic to Four times Killua died (and the one time he didn't).

Summary
Killua and Gon find themselves facing down the men they'll be in eight years, and Killua is convinced they're keeping a dark secret-- after all, his future self seems a little shifty, and Gon's older self has a strange, dark look in his eye. The experience leads to a little more self-inventory than either of them had been betting on.
“Neh, Killua? Have I told you the story about The Little Mermaid before?”
“Mmm? The Little Mermaid? Isn’t that a children’s fairytale?”
“You know the story, right?”
“Sure. Some stupid mermaid throws away everything she’s ever known to be with some guy she met once. Then when, surprise surprise, he has a fiance and she realizes that he’ll never love a freak like her, she tries to kill him. She fails, she stabs herself, and returns to the sea as nothing more than cheap moss. It’s a cautionary tale.” Of which he was familiar with a great many more. Caution. Fear. That was how they’d kept him on a leash for so long.
Gon seemed to fall silent at that, probably stewing about his family again. He didn’t blame him, honestly, it was the one cautionary tale he’d seemed to take as a road map.
