[Yami no Matsuei] "A Truce During Crisis" (PG)
Author's Note: Written for < lj user="fuda_100">'s "natural disaster". Featuring Tsuzuki and Muraki.
A severe earthquake struck an urban area in Kyushu; every shinigami had boots to the ground, including Tsuzuki.
He moved through the tent city set up to assist the survivors, helping the dying cross over, but now he rested, outside a medical tent. A breeze lifted a bit of canvas, revealing Muraki, clad in blood-spotted scrubs, asleep on a crate. Tsuzuki started, but paused, gazing on his nemesis, unshaven, dark circles under his eyes.
Tsuzuki reached out, hesitated, put a comforting hand on Muraki's shoulder. The pale man opened his good eye, glanced at Tsuzuki's hand, nodded, closed his eyes.
