素直な気持ち伝えるのさ

Another Zero fic from Shiritori! Maybe one day I'll get over this ridiculous drama, lol, but that day is not today.

title: More than Satisfactory
rating: pg
pairing: Suezaki Seigi x Hikawa Yuuki (Zero: Ikkaku Senkin Game)
word count: 714
beta: yomimashou
author's note: More Zero fic! I personally choose to believe that Seigi and Yuuki came back together from Dream Kingdom and lived happily ever after, so this is just a snapshot of their lives after the drama. This is set probably just before the "1 year later" epilogue that you see in Episode 10 of the drama. Written for Shiritori @ writetomyheart!
summary: Maybe things are still a little awkward now, and maybe they'll continue to be awkward for some time to come, but Yuuki think that this life that they've built together is definitely more than enough for him.

( It's been about a year since Yuuki had come back from Dream Kingdom with Seigi. )

Yet another old Shiritori drabble!

title: Give Up
rating: pg
pairing: Kusano Hironori x Kato Shigeaki; some background Koyama x Tegoshi
warning: It's pretty innocuous in my opinion, but it is generally linked to the scandals, so if that might upset or offend you, please read with discretion.
word count: 1,039
beta: yomimashou
author's note: This is a late, short reaction to all the crap that went down with NEWS in June. Not really anything about the incidents themselves, but just my hope as a fan that Shige had someone supporting him. ;__; Written for shiritori @ writetomyheart!
summary: No matter how much Shige wants to feel like the main character in his own tragedy novel sometimes, he knows that Kusano won’t let him, and perhaps that’s for the better.

( 'Give up!' Shige barks, throwing his arms up as he turns back to face Kusano. )

I posted this to Shiritori a little while back, but I wanted to save it to post to my journal for March 11. It's for the anniversary of a sad occasion, but I wanted to write something hopeful, so... it's only a drabble, but here it is.

title: figuring out
rating: PG
characters: Centered around Hoshiyama Tohru, Inoo’s character from his 2015 play Karafuto Ojisan, and his relationship with an original character.
warnings: As all of my fics for this play, this deals with PTSD and natural disasters, so please read with discretion!
word count: 679
beta: yomimashou
author’s note: This is a companion to 赤いスイートピー set one year after. I wanted to write something for the 7 year anniversary of the March 11 Tohoku Earthquake, and of course, when it comes to this topic, Tohru always comes to mind. Written for Shiritori @ writetomyheart
summary: Sometimes it feels like Tohru hasn’t really made a whole lot of progress in the whole tangled, messy process of sorting through his issues, but sometimes it feels like things are suddenly, unexpectedly easy.

( 'How about we try to figure it out together?' )

This is pretty late now, sigh, but I posted a shiritori for JUMP's anniversary! I'm so proud of these guys, and I hope they're proud of themselves and happy as a group, too. Happy anniversary, guys!


title: once in a lifetime
rating: pg
characters: Inoo-centric; Hikaru/Inoo as a backdrop
word count: 930
beta: yomimashou
author’s note: Written for JUMP’s 10th anniversary! Happy 10th, JUMP ♥ For Shiritori @ writetomyheart
summary: Reaching ten years with a group of people you love and respect isn’t something that happens every day.

( Too tired to move— that’s how Inoo feels when he finally gets home at the end of the day on Tuesday, November 14th, 2017. )

And here's the second one. ^^; My first ever pinch hit! I feel bad I wasn't able to do more in the time constraints, but I hope it was enjoyable anyway!

title: Anniversary
rating: nc-17
pairing: Matsumura Hokuto x Kouchi Yugo
warnings: pwp
word count: 3,400
beta: yomimashou
author’s note: Written for mousapelli in the ho_summer exchange on dreamwidth!
summary: His goofy sappiness is something Kouchi loves about Hokuto, and honestly, if it’s an excuse for more sex on their lazy day off together, Kouchi definitely isn’t complaining.

( 'Happy anniversary,' Hokuto suddenly says. )

After rewatching Bakaleya, I don't know why I didn't love this pairing as much as I do now before. XD; It's so great. This is just a short shiritori thing, but hopefully it's enjoyable!


title: 半端ない (“not half-assed”)
rating: pg-13
pairing: Sakuragi Ren x Mashima Kenji (Tama and Uchi’s characters in Shiritsu Bakaleya Koukou)
warnings: The characters portrayed in a romantic relationship in this fic are 16/17. However, there’s no explicit content, and the actors were both adults at the time they played the characters.
word count: 1,395
beta: yomimashou
author’s note: I rewatched Shiritsu Bakaleya Koukou recently, and I was inspired! This pairing was somewhat interesting to me at the time I saw the movie back in 2012, but I think five years later, they stood out to me even more. The details of their relationship are extremely vague in the movie, so this is sort of a little glimpse into my idea of a possible backstory for them. By the way, I think this is clear in the movie, but “KikuKou” is the abbreviation the characters use for “Kikunaga High School” (Kikunaga Koukou). The phrasing “not half-assed” is my best delinquenty-sounding translation for “hanpa nai”, which the characters often say in the drama, but it really sounds less goofy and more romantic in Japanese, so I’m sorry about that. |D;; Written for shiritori @ writetomyheart!
summary: Admitting that he’d fallen in love with Sakuragi Ren was the easy part, Kenji thinks, it’s figuring out what to do from there that’s the difficult part.

( There’s just something about Ren that made it impossible not to fall in love with him. )

Neverland was on my mind since I'm going to see the show again tomorrow in Nagoya (so... I'll be away yet again... just for the weekend, though), and somehow this happened! It's sort of weird, so read at your own risk, but... I hope it's enjoyable anyway XD


title: Brightest
rating: nc-17
pairing: Kusano Hironori x Kato Shigeaki
warnings: porn!
word count: 1,250
beta: yomimashou
author’s note: This is set in an AU based on NEWS’s Neverland album and tour. In the album, it’s explained that there are seven elements that make up “Neverland,” one of which is “ray” or “hikari” (which I would translate as light, but, it’s their album! XD). In the tour, Shige’s “area” is refered to as the “Ray area,” so… in this fantasy AU based on the album, that translated to Shige being from the Ray country and having the power to control light. The title is from the song “Brightest” on the alum!  Written for shiritori @ writetomyheart!
summary: Shige looks even more beautiful than Kusano can comprehend all lit up by the lights around them; he practically glows, as if he’s a star, a supernova, a source of light all of his own.

( It’s late, and all around town, lights are out. )

It became my turn at Shiritori while I was in Hokkaido, so I figured I'd write about Hokkaido! By the way, this fic has nothing to do with the Dostoyevsky book by the same title, oops. XD;

title: The Idiot
rating: r
pairings:Kato Shigeaki x Kusano Hironori ; side Koyama x Tegoshi
warnings: brief and non-explicit description of sex
word count: 3,290
beta: yomimashou
author’s note: This was inspired by my recent trip to Hokkaido to see the first show of NEWS’s Neverland tour. XD; I hope this is what was going on behind the scenes. Written for Shiritori @ writetomyheart!
summary: Maybe being around Kusano makes him an idiot, but Shige can’t bring himself to care.

( 'You idiot!' Shige bursts. )

Today has been really busy, but I managed to get out a goofy shiritori. XD; For some reason, fics about cats are my favorite genre.


title: Cat Person
rating: pg
pairing: Yaotome Hikaru x Inoo Kei
word count: 1,033
beta: yomimashou
author’s note: Ever since the episode of Itadaki High JUMP where Scottish Fold cats were ranked as Hikaru’s favorite kind of cat, I’ve been saying that Inoo should get one, and it’s become sort of a joke that maybe Hikaru would actually start to like them.
summary: Inoo wonders what sort of strange irony had made him into the complainer and Hikaru into the cat person.

( 'Morning~' comes the sound of Hikaru’s voice from the hazy edges of Inoo’s consciousness. )

I'm sorry it's been forever since I wrote fic; life has been super busy as of late, what with job hunting and what have you, so I haven't had enough time for fandom stuff. But the next round of Shiritori started up, so at least here's a little something!


title: private
rating: pg
pairing: Yaotome Hikaru x Inoo Kei
word count: 900
beta: yomimashou
author’s note: Set after the 2016.12.3 episode of Radirer, where Inoo did a corner where he read messages that fans wanted him to say to Hikaru for his birthday. Written for Shiritori @ writetomyheart!
summary: For Inoo, the idea of making a show of his relationship with Hikaru onstage is too embarrassing and wrong to bear, and so he tries to keep his private life private.

( Inoo laughs embarrassedly to himself as he and Hikaru make their way to Hikaru's manager's car. )
