   Summary

   A collection of OC shorts that take place in a timeline that does not achieve peace, about the relationships people form and the ways they try and cope. Updates whenever I feel like it.

   1. an ex-soldier's first glow off-duty, and the person least equipped to help her through that.
   2. an unexpected connection, found in the chaos of the Heliopause's arrival

   Summary

   “Can you show me what your love looks like?”

   Kotoko pauses. Her lips clamp shut. She stares, for a long moment, back at her; it’s as if she thinks she can unpeel Mahiru’s very thoughts by simply standing, silently, and observing. As if she can figure out which parts of her are already mangled enough by just the sound of her voice.

   "Okay," she says.
