- Unlike Koki, Keiji had no parent supervising home or punishing him during the week. He instead spent the course of the school day on his own, working through his textbook in time with the class, and working on homework given to him by Saboru each day, along with his usual studying he did on his own, but he did find it rather hard to concentrate. All he could think about was the punishment he was probably going through, he didn’t get to talk to him a whole lot, or at least not as much as he wanted to. Koki’s ada did let Koki call him each night and their conversations were long and it felt nice to hear Koki’s voice. Koki had a friend bringing his homework too and it sounded as though his dad was making sure he did it. Keiji still wished he could see Koki and spend time with him but obviously that wouldn’t be tolerated, part of the punishment was that they were kept apart though Keiji had no parents around to enforce it on his side Koki’s dad was plenty the enforcer for both of them, something Keiji was strangely happy about. He had never been in trouble, told off or grounded by a an adult somehow it felt nice to be treated like a kid by Koki’s family, though it also made him painfully aware of how messed up his own family life was, for him and Kaede.
That was another thing entirely. at the start of the week Keiji had made a call to his mother and she had agreed to come home on the following Wednesday to talk to both of them. It was all Kaede could think about. She openly hated their mother, and the idea that their mother might be bothered by the things they had to tell her excited Kaede, while worrying Keiji and when he looked worried when Kaede brought up the topic she would yell at him to stop worried, that their stranger of a mother had absolutely no right to question their choices or dislike them for it, if she did it didn’t matter she wasn’t important and neither were her opinions of them still. Keiji had fought hard to get approval from Koki’s parents so of course a part of him wanted his mother to accept them as well, even though Kaede insisted that their mother was hardly family Keiji kept thinking about what Kanon had said about both families sitting down and having a meal together. Koki usually didn’t seem to care about adult approval but his mother wanted them to all act like a big happy family and if that were possible all those involved would be happy right? The chances of his mother reacting well to all this was slim though. It’d be one thing if he was just coming out to his mother, it would likely still shock his mother and she may have prejudices as is but to come out to her after losing his ears on school grounds and almost getting expelled…. it wasn’t exactly the best situation to ask for her acceptance, not to mention they were also going to drop the fact that Keiji had no intention of even going to business school and he definitely had no intention of rising to her rank, Kaede would do it instead. Keiji dreaded and worried about that day no matter what Kaede said.
Still that was far enough away that he didn’t want to think about it until after the weekend was over because this weekend he was going to get to see Koki. Relentless and Shameless wanted to meet up likely to continue their physical training. Even though they hadn’t been apart for long with everything that happened if felt like they hadn’t seen them for years, they had so much news for them, he wondered what sort of faces they’d make when they saw their earless heads. They were now the same as their older group of friends, earless, considered adults by most of society, even though they were still in highschool and lived with their parents… or at least in a house their parent owned in Keiji case. He had gotten up early, antsy for the day to begin, so he was halfway through his wake up routine when the doorbell rang. Keiji wasn’t expecting anyone especially too early… it couldn’t be Koki… Keiji had been in the bathroom brushing his teeth when the sound came, he had already finished showering and had gotten dressed thankfully. He rinsed his mouth and opened the bathroom door to see his still sleepy sister who simply pushed him out of the ay claiming the bathroom for herself. keiji knew he wouldn’t get back in there now he sighed and headed down the stairs quickly fixing his hair with his hands while he took the steps. He couldn’t get used to running his fingers through the hair that used to part around his ears, the feeling of a smooth cranium had never bothered him so much as it did now. He wasn’t used to it yet so he suspected their friends and Keiji only other family member would freak.
As he approached the front door he mentally went through who it could be; a delivery, a friend of his moms dropping something off, maybe even someone she sent to snoop before the big talk, maybe it was a friend of Kaede’s or… he opened the door to see a very excited lookign Koki. Keiji was already surprised to see that it was his boyfriend before he got the wind knocked out of him in a whoosh as Koki leaped at him excitedly. His back hit the ground and his head did too, he was thankful for the thick rug at the doorway that made the impact a little less harmful to him. Still one eye closed as he winced in pain and looked up at Koki smiling despite the impromptu injury. His black haired boyfriend was straddling his hips while bent over him gathering his neck and face with kisses, Keiji laughed a little at Koki’s proclamation, in truth it really hadn’t been that long, they had been together Monday, it hadn’t even been a week but Keiji had missed Koki just as much as Koki had missed him. Keiji’s arm came up to wrap around Koki ”Me too, though this tackling thing should have a warning don’t you think?” his other hand rubbing the back of his head, giving him a teasing hurt expression.
Keiji sat up leaving Koki to sit in his lap and he kissed Koki on the lips a little more deeply than he had first intended. When they broke apart he little a little guilty and a flush was beginning to appear across his cheeks, the last time they had been in this position was when they had… the blush deepened but he forced it down ”I didn’t expect you so early I’m not done getting ready, just give me a sec kay?” He pulled himself apart from Koki and stood up helping Koki do the same before heading back up the steps to his room to grab things like his wallet and phone before heading back down the stairs, stopping to tell Kaede through the door that he was heading out and to text him if she needed anything, then texting Jouyo that they were leaving the house now on route to Jouyo’s house. He grabbed a light jacket on his way out putting on his shoes and grabbing Koki’s hand before grabbing his keys off the wall and heading out the door, locking it behind him out of habit despite Kaede being home.
It wasn’t long till they were on the subway and on their way into town.

Michiaki looked back at his flat from the doorway about to leave. He really did want to consider getting as new place… maybe one that he and Jouyo could share… after all the monkey and Aizawa had just moved in together, and despite himself he was a little jealous that the couple would wake up and sleep together every night and morning. Jouyo had spent nights at Michiaki’s current flat but Michiaki wasn’t exactly fond of it, he had Suzuka had shared it for the time they had been married, there were bad memories that had sunk into these walls, even though he and Jouyo had spent time getting rid of things that once belonged to his ex-wife the house itself still felt like it belonged to her. Michiaki rolled his shoulders feeling a chill down his spine. He rubbed his scruffy jaw; he hadn’t othered to shave clean, it was a Sunday after all, He put on his shoes and headed out the door and to his car in the garage below the building. He wondered if he’d be driving the entire gang around again, the car wasn’t made for six… maybe he should switch up to a van? No, people at his company would think he was about to have a baby or a family, the only people that could look cool in such car were fathers, Michiaki had no intention of having kids at least not anytime soon even if he was going to babysit a bunch of kids this afternoon. He chuckled under his breath at his own internal joke, before sitting and turning the ignition heading out to the road. still renting a bigger car could be nice during the summer, the six of them could go somewhere to train, surea battle space could be opened anywhere and a gym was the only place proper to practice hand to hand combat but the wilderness had a much better backdrop, there was no chance of running into enemies out in the middle of nowhere and boxing atop a hill would make some great pictures. There was also something to be said about building their teamwork… Shingetsu was an extremely large organized group of villains, sure they could hold their own in a duel maybe, they were slowly learning how to work together but surely having the hike and be tied together by a rope or lend hands to one another would do much better than their current form of team building. Sort of like how the class Michiaki d made Jouyo attend had made the two of them closer, surely the same thing would happen in a hiking situation.
Hed think on it for now, it would be nice to see if Michiaki could prove his ape theory, if Souta could climb as well as a monkey then that would prove his nickname right? He parked the car outside Jouyo’s building heading into th elevator and to jouyo’s door where he knocked curtly.If they had a place together Michiaki wouldn’t have to knock, they’d live together, he wouldn’t have to drive to Jouyo’s place they’d wake up together… Jouyo called from inside that the door was open. Michiaki twisted the knob and Jouyo was right, he come in noting Jouyo wasn’t waiting in the doorway. he hung up his jacket and took off his shoes then heard Jouyo call him over. An eyebrow rose as he looked up and made his way to Jouyo’s side, all the ‘darlings’ gave Michiaki the impression that Jouyo was in a good mood, though Jouyo did like using pet names, the same one being repeated twice was usually a clear indication that Jouyo was happy. So Michiaki’s lips twitched into a smile on one side as he came to stand beside Jouyo. Michiaki looked down at the frie red hair, at the heterochromatic eyes and god like visage he had fallen completely in love with but he didn’t have time to stare at it for long because Jouyo was pointing out his window towards a sign. Michiaki followed his finger, Jouyo asked him to read the sign and Michiaki did so, and then continued to read signs that got further and further away, Michiaki sounding more and more puzzled after every one. He knew Jouyo had bad eyes but lately he hadn’t been complaining about them, Michuiaki always thought about everythign that might upset or hinder his sacrifice and had even introduced him to several doctors and eye researchers in the past that might be able to help him but Jouyo hadn’t talked about his eyes in a while, Michiaki hadn’t forgotten about Jouyo’s problem but he hadn’t thought much on it since Jouyo didn’t bring it up so why was he suddenly interested in how far Michiaki could see and read… was he just suddenly curious about what the signs said, being unable to read them himself, or had he gotten new contacts and wanted to show off, or worse was he upset about how bad his eyes were, was he sad or worried about not being able to read the signs himself? was his sacrifice in some sort of pain, was he agonizing over it, had Michiaki missed something, was Jouyo upset because Michiaki hadn’t asked him how his eyes were doing? Michiaki wouldn’t normally bring it up incase it bothered Jou but maybe he should have.
However the worrying turned out to be needless as Jouyo’s next words were that he could read all of the signs as well. Michiaki was part relieved and part confused. His eyebrows furrowed, he of course was happy to hear this but he wanted to know the reason. Jouyo parted from him sitting on the bed, sighing heavily which only peaked Michiaki’s curiosity more. Then Jouyo explained that it had been going on for a while that his doctors couldn’t explain it he paused and Michiaki studied that his expression wasn’t an excited one, he didn’t seem happy with the change if anything he looked a little dejected, worried, jouyo went on to explain why as well. He was afraid it wouldn’t last, their eyes met and they both held their gazes as Jouyo confided in Michiaki that it all started after he accepted their relationship. It was rather strange that the two were connected, michaiki didn’t know if it was common for pairs to help each other with their disability as their bond strengthens, it really sounded like fairytale magic… then against he magic that they wielded was really, so maybe their relationship could cast some sort iof spell, healing one or the other as their relationship deepened… it was stretch but what was happening with Jouyo made it plausible right?
Jouyo’s gaze became a little heated now as he said his final words. Michiaki couldn’t help the wolfish grin that spread across his face, Jouyo could see his godly body in HD…. ”It must be quite the view, I’ve been blessed with the ability to see your godly visage and form since the beginning…” He smiled confidently before letting himself become a little more serious. He crossed the room sitting beside his sacrifice on the large bed, touching Jouyo chin forcing Jouyo to face him, looking into his different colored eyes ” I can’t say for sure if this is permanent but if it is linked to you and me then I promise it will last forever because as you know I have sworn myself to you, I’ll never leave your side Jouyo-sama. If it is a coincidence,and your eyes relapse I will always be here to support you, you know that right?” he gave a space for Jouyo to answer ”In the meantime we shouldn’t be spending our time worrying about the chance of your sight disappearing we should be celebrating every moment that you have it. So stop letting it weigh you down, we should go somewhere to celebrate, name a place and I’ll take you there.”He only wished they could go now, but the kids, Aizawa and the ape were on their way. Michiaki wouldn’t mind cancelling but it would be rude and this training was important, especially for the two youngsters who were at the highest risk.
Speaking of which Jouyo’s phone suddenly went off… that was likely one of them, Michiaki didn’t release Jouyo right away though, first he leant forward kissing right above each eye tenderly, praying inwardly that Jouyo was worrying for nothing, that his eyesight would get better still, and that Jouyo would be happy. He then released Jouyo so he could check his phone. trying to lighten the mood back up he tried for something that would hopefully elicit a chuckle from Jouyo ”It is however unfortunate that you don’t just see me in HD but the others as well, I’m sure that part isn’t as pleasant as when your eyes fall upon yours truly. Though I suppose I can happily say I’m the only one you’ve had HD sex with, thankfully you probably couldn’t see the ape half as well, which I think is a kindness in that case.” Sometime he forgot that Jouyo and souta had a past, but thankfully Jouyo’s relationship with Souta was strictly of the friends with benefits type, and the end of their relations had left a bitter taste in Jouyo’s mouth promising that Jouyo was much happier in Michiaki’s arms then in Souta’s. Though it did sometimes confuse him that Souta must have played the top in that previous relationship, it was hard to imagine, not that Michiaki had any desire to pause on the image that formed in his head.
He quickly forced his mind to forget such thoughts looking at Jouyo instead ”Everyone’s on their way I presume?”

Souta awoke to his fighter staring down at him, if it had been anyone but his familiar fighter, not only would Souta had hit the person and run but he would have found the action creepy, thankfully it was Aizawa and souta was used to his fighters obsession with him. A smile spread on his lips as Aizawa said good morning, blue hues studied Aizawa’s face; his strong chin, his calming brown eyes, long eyelashes, soft lips. ”hmm? Good morning.” His voice was hoarse and therefore quieter than Souta had expected, he cleared his throat and pulled his elbows up to either side of himself rising in the bed. One of the arms came up to rub at the sand in his eyes, looking at the light at pooled into the room from the window, he tried to remember what was going on that day. He didn’t have work, hence being able to sleep in and they were meeting the others. ” Shouldn’t we be getting ready or something?” He yawned, knowing it was he who had slept in, Aizawa obviously awoke before him, Souta wondered why Aizawa hadn’t just woken him but it was a sunday so Souta was grateful for being allowed to sleep in. A sudden idea crossed his mind and he looked at Aizawa with his usual devilish grin ”Wanna take a shower together?” Despite the fact that they were living together and had been a couple for so long, Souta still found it effortless to get a rise out of his fighter with questions like those, He loved making the blond haired fighter blush, he really had a talent for it as well.
They had some time since they both woke up rather early most of the time, sleeping in for them didn’t mean they woke up that late, Souta didn’t mind being a little late to their gathering though, it wasn’t as if he wasn’t used to being tardy and a morning shower was all the excuse Souta needed. They were living together now so they were supposed to cherish their time in their new home, so who could blame them for taking a little time in the morning to appreciate their indoor plumbing and each other. Souta would bet anything that Shameless would do the same given the opportunity. Souta didn’t wait long for a response before sitting up and pulling he boyfriend towards the bathroom after him, already wide awake and ready, though he’d be craving coffee the minute they got out he was sure, but for now he was excited enough that he was awake.
After they go out Sotua made coffee on the new coffee maker he had been sure to buy on moving day. when he had lived above the restaurant he had gotten used to drinking the coffee made in the cafe, still nothing was like home brewed. They grabbed food and Souta got dressed. Since they had begun living together Souta had began to indulge in something else that usually got his fighter rather heated; wearing Aizawa’s clothes, which were of course big on his figure was small for a full grown male whereas Aizawa was way beyond average, so he looked at bit like a kid where wearing Aizawa’s clothes but if he was naked in one of Aizawa’s shirts it worked particularly well in getting Aizawa fired up. However going out in public that way might make for some awkward situations for Aiza so he refrained wearing his own clothes.
He still wore gloves anytime he left the house but truthfully he was getting better at controlling his new found powers, he was able to simply turn it off now, so long as he focused, but turning it on still caused an uncontrollable explosion of memories, but he was working hard at trying to slow down the abundance of images, bottlenecking them, and trying to see one at a time, so that the power could be of use to them in the future but so far he couldn’t do it for long without causing a headache, still in was something. Aizawa was ever conscious of Souta’s struggles to control it and was considerate, looking out for him, asking how he was, sometimes it made Souta feel like Aizawa regarded him as fragile, or breakable but he knew Aizawa was just too sweet for his own good and didn’t worry in a bad way. souta was getting sued to how over protective hi boyfriend could be, and tried desperately not to go off the handle when he felt he was being babied. You would think he was used to the baby treatment being the youngest of four boys, and the baby of his family, but it was more like he had been babied his entire life and wanted to be an equal at least next to Aizawa. Though he knew what with his recent attacks and how things had been going Aizawa’s worrying was warranted and Aizawa saw him as an equal and a man, so he couldn’t hold it against Aizawa.
The taste of strong coffee chased away his conflicting thoughts as he leaned against the counters looking at Aizawa ”Want some?” He was referring to the coffee. Aizawa didn’t drink it often but Souta had convinced him before. he looked at the clock on the wall absently thinking that they should get going and considering pulling down the travel mug to bring with them but he wanted to at least relax while drinking his first cup, if Aizawa didn’t want any he take the second cup to go then.
Not long after they found themselves heading down to the subway, gloves on Souta’s hand and velcroed tight to his wrists, a long sleeve shirt and jacket protecting his arms as well. It was already May but it was still a little brisk above ground, and dry and chilly down in the subway, soon however it would be warm out, Souta was aiming to no longer need long sleeves and gloves by that time. After all, he hadn’t gotten to go to the beach with Aizawa yet and he hoped they could. he couldn’t exactly wear a long sleeve shirt and gloves at the beach, though he didn’t want to know what the seawater and sand had seen, each grain of sand probably had it’s own set of memories ingrained on it, the idea sent chills down his spine but wanted to not use the gloves come summer gave him a goal he could see, and it wasn’t one that far from his grasp. He didn’t often practice removing the gloves around Aizawa, although he liked having Aiza around to support him, he found it hard to concentrate when he knew he’d worry Aizawa if he slipped up, if he shook, or lost himself mid attempt Aizawa would go into mother hen mode and almost stunt his progress because he was so worried and souta would want to put the gloves back down to help his fighter calm back down, so for now he practiced at work, collecting dirty dishes without gloves on; the dishes were cleaned a lot and therefore had few memories on them and the memories that were there weren’t full of heavy emotions or all that long or overwhelming so they were good for practicing on, and without telling Chisue he could always tell if the dishes had been cleaned properly, and he could make the girls redo them, not that he could tell them how he knew.

Keiji sat beside Koki on the subway. Since it was a Sunday morning there weren’t many people on the car with them, even though their were so few people Keiji still felt like people were constantly staring at the two of them, like they knew what the two of them had done, likely they were just surprised how young the two kids were, or at least looked despite not having their ears. Keiji could pass as a little older than he actually was, but Koki… in a lot of ways still looked young, it was part of his charm, his bouncy attitude only added to it, making him possibly look even younger. keiji had always found it cute, but he knew Koki shocked more people than Keiji did. Keiji tried to ignore what might be going through strangers heads upon looking at the pair, especially considering they were hand in hand and touching shoulder to shoulder, and hip to hip, it was obvious they were couple, Keiji just hoped they didn’t secretly hate him for tainting the younger boy beside him; as usual he was worrying for no reason, he should take a page from Koki’s book and not care what others thought, he should just focus on the only person that mattered; Koki, they were so close and here Keiji was worrying about everyone else. He sighed blinking slowly before letting his head lean against Koki’s bringing himself to forget his worries and instead inquiring ”What do you think the others are going to do? Oh yeah I meant to ask who the heck gave you the lube?” he knew it was either Souta or Jouyo and he didn’t know whether he should thank them or hit them for planning all this out. He said the lube part quietly so the rest of the car wouldn’t hear them.
Keiji narrowed his eyes at Koki’s answer but just straightened shaking his head once the culprit was revealed. ”I guess we were lucky to have it but it’s still rather bad influence to give that kind of stuff to a sixteen year old. “ There stop came and they exited the subway and out into the brisk streets, heading for the familiar highrise, Keiji, ever the responsible one shot another test Jouyo’s way to warn him that they were ten minutes away, truthfully he did because he didn’t want to get to Jouyo’s door and see the shameless pair dishevelled, and caught by surprise. The only person that could pull off the ‘just had sex’ look was Koki in keiji’s opinion. They had to buzz Jouyo’s room to get let in and were soon walking toward the door, Koki knocked excitedly, he was obviously bursting with energy. Keiji didn’t know how he felt about that. he was happy about what they had done too, it had felt amazing and he didn’t regret it, nor was he ashamed of their age, though he was a little embarrassed about the time and place it had occurred but despite that he didn’t know how he felt about ‘shouting it to the world’ or even about how Koki was likely going to bounce into the room and shot it to Jouyo, they were sure to get teased by the older pairs, Koki would adore the attention while Keiji was sure to be red as a tomato and wanting to hide under the couch.
However despite his feelings the sound of the door opening eventually came.
~
Souta also walked hand in hand with his boyfriend, behind ageless by about ten minutes, not too much. If Aizawa warned Jouyo or Michiaki more likely, that they were on their way Souta didn’t notice; he wasn’t the considerate type, the only person he was sentimental, sweet or considerate for was Aizawa, no one else was good enough for such feeling from Souta. They buzzed in and headed up next, Souta wondered if the twerps had beaten them there.
