Summary
"What was that, Charles? The hourglass. What exactly did it do?”
Charles forced himself to look into Edwin’s eyes, into that same pained look that he hated from mere moments ago. Then he glanced at the object in question.
“Freaky Friday,” he muttered. Charles took a deep breath. Then another. “Edwin, why are you hurting?”

Summary
When Gon moved to York New City, he didn't expect housing to be so difficult to find. Luckily, Leorio had a lead that carried Gon to the front door of 405B Hunter Street, a townhouse with an open room in an apartment shared with a mysterious and eccentric young man named Killua. Such an opportunity could open doors to mystery, mayhem, and the greatest adventure of Gon's life.
Or, the Sherlock Holmes AU that no one asked for.

Summary
Killua's thoughts are spiraling in his head so fast that he can’t make sense of them. It reminds him of when Illumi- No. But what if… NO. The pain between his eyes sharpens so much he sees static.
His body quivers as it tries to process contradicting commands while his brain screams and he settles for sitting on the metal stairs until he can control them enough to walk straight. Enough to convince Gon that he’s just tired. Enough to maintain this facade until whatever this is just goes away. Unless it doesn’t, a voice whispers from somewhere inside of him. Unless Illumi planted more than one-
(((In which Killua wonders if Illumi really only planted a single needle... or if there might be something he is missing)))

Summary
Gon Freecss is a high schooler on Tofua’amotu, a small island in the middle of nowhere. He’s always felt like he was missing something, or someone. He wonders who or what it could be. His father maybe? One day, he inexplicably begins to have vivid dreams that he is a boy named Killua Zoldyck, who lives in a mansion and goes to school in York New City, a big city on the mainland. When he wakes, he’s back in his home. As his Aunt Mito and his friends at school tell him how strange he acted the day before, he begins to put it together - he and Killua are switching places when they sleep! They agree to work together until this strange phenomenon comes to an end. Gon did not anticipate, however, the strong bond he begins to feel with the strange boy from York New. He finds that he doesn’t really want it to end…
Gon has so many questions, and he must find the answers in the limited time he has. Why is Killua’s body always so painful to be in? Why are they switching places? And what will he do when the switching stops, possibly never able to see Killua again? Maybe it really was all just a dream that he will learn to stop chasing…((A Killugon ‘Your Name’ au))

Summary
“Do you think they drifted apart?” There was a somber note in Killua’s tone.
Gon hummed in response. “No, I don’t think so.” Killua was staring at him again, hanging onto his every word. Gon sensed that there was something about the story that had struck a chord in the other. “I think space and time are different up there, y’know? Kind of like how space and time feel different when we’re together.”
(Or Killua celebrates Gon's birthday with him and learns that even in different traditions the stars always have a lot to say.)

Summary
The boys have very different reactions to learning about each other's scars.
Edwin:
The scars make up everything Charles was before, everything he is today, as intrinsically linked to him as his cricket bat, and because of that, Edwin treats them as if they’re sacred.Charles:
Charles quickly learns that he hates Edwin’s scars because not a single one of them was caused by Edwin himself; every scar on his body was caused by someone who wanted to hurt him intentionally and that alone is enough to make him feel like he’s swallowed glass.Bookmarked by cafeaulater
