Summary
He crosses his arms around his chest, hunching over himself. "So, um. Is it... real different than bein' in a human body?"
It clicks at him again. There's an answering shiver in Yoshiki's ribs, a mix of fear and itchy curiosity. Against his better judgement he inches forward, lifting his hand into the space between them. The thing tracks his movements with a noiseless twitch.
"Do you feel other things the same, too? Like... if I touch you, can you feel it?"

Summary
Yoshikaru Week 2025, Day 5: Date
"Hey, Yoshiki... look." He stops to marvel in front of one display in particular, but his arms are slack at his sides. The creatures bobbing inside are mostly transparent, but the light shining through them highlights their multicolor reality: the blue of their bodies; the yellow-green of their internal organs; their numerous tendrils, tipped with purple and fluorescent pink. The placard beneath the tank reads 'Flower Hat Jellyfish'. "This one kinda looks like me."
He's right. They're beautiful.
Or: Yoshiki and Hikaru visit an aquarium.

Summary
Is it selfish to accept this love, if Hikaru never had any choice but to feel it?
“Yoshiki, look! Mincemeat cutlets!”
“What’re ya talking about?” Yoshiki squints against the blinding snow through his bangs. The snowfall is thin and wet. It’ll probably be gone by tomorrow, but the cold seeps into Yoshiki’s core. Winter has come early this year.
It’ll have been a year soon. So soon. Just a few more weeks.
Time refuses to stop, more of a monster than anything else Yoshiki has encountered.
Or: Yoshiki grapples with whether or not “Hikaru” has the autonomy to truly love him if his companionship is the result of fulfilling a wish.

Summary
'The passion caused by the great and sublime in nature, when those causes operate most powerfully, is astonishment; and astonishment is that state of the soul, in which all its motions are suspended, with some degree of horror… A mode of terror or pain is always the cause of the sublime.'
Or, -
"If I come out," Hikaru says, "all the way, you promise you won't be scared of me?"
