A/N:
- Written for
smallfandombang round 5
- Written for prompt/trope square 'soul bonding/soulmates' in my Trope Bingo round 6 card
- The title of this fic comes from Miyano Mamoru's song
'Kuon'. I chose it because the
English translation of the lyrics is perfect for the story.
- I did the arts myself in case anyone is curious
