    Summary

    As Ainosuke fixes the watch on his wrist, his nose catches an unexpected scent. Curious, he brings it closer to his face and breathes deep. There’s a cologne lingering on the leather, faint but unmistakable: it smells like a garden after the rain. Only there's something else underneath, a hidden depth that dances on the edges of his senses, just out of reach. Ainosuke has never smelled anything like it. It could have only come from the watchmaker’s wrist. Ainosuke closes his eyes and tries to reconcile the image. Their correspondence together had been bland, almost colourless. It seems at odds with the watch sitting against his wrist, beautifully warm and cared for.

    -

    After having his antique watch repaired, Ainosuke finds himself drawn to the alluring scent left behind by the watchmaker.

    An Omegaverse AU.

    Summary

    “I’ll fix it. Tell me how.”

    “Take them off.”

    “Excuse me?”

    “You heard me! Take them off. Take them off right now!”

    Tadashi raises his hands in defense, hoping Ainosuke will lower his voice. It isn’t like him to throw his tantrums in public, so he’s clearly upset, but it is precisely the public nature of it all that makes him hesitate. At best, he might only be cited for indecent exposure. At worst, he could rock the Shindo campaign with a scandal, and then everything really will be ruined.

    A wardrobe mishap on the way to a meeting with campaign investors prompts an unexpected shopping trip. Indulging in the chance to spoil Tadashi, Ainosuke inadvertently exposes his true feelings.

    Summary

    In her observations thus far, Vash has two moods.

    His first and most-preferred front is one of purely joyous whimsy—an unflappable simplicity that makes him easy to like and even easier to dismiss. His second, rarer temper is of the kind that only comes out once the party's over.

    It’s when his gaze drifts to the stars or the smoggy wormglow above and he just seems ancient, mellow and deliberate in his pathos. That’s where the intrigue lies for Meryl, this hidden dimension of slow commiseration. The other side of the coin, she’d probably say, for a deeply sensitive soul with too much compassion to give.

    Often, when he thinks no one is looking, he seems like a man in mourning. She just can’t figure out what he thinks he’s losing this time.

    Summary

    "The sun is inching its way towards the horizon from below, bringing the darkness of the sky to a deep, soft blue. A few stars remain, twinkling in the vast vacuum of space. How far the light must have traveled, for how many millions of years, for it to reach this place, so far from home. How alone it must be, how isolated, how terribly lonely.

    Ainosuke was like that, once. Lonely by design, craving the company of the only person who was always by his side."

    Ainosuke wakes up early, and spends the extra time outside. Tadashi joins him.
