THIS. IS. SOB-WORTHY. STUNNING. SPECTACULAR

If you didn't already have me from the header, you'd have got me from the first paragraph alone.

The hard rock glinted in the light like a beacon in the dark welcoming weary sailors home. For Taguchi, it inspired nothing but a hopeless feeling of being lost.
This particularly got me. The complete detachment of the simile coming around to show that what it should make him feel and how it doesn't. Yeah that makes sense <.<

He could feel the sharp edges of the fitting cut into his skin and he breathed in sharply, the colors around him blurring for a split-second into a beautiful cacophonous symphony of lights.
PERFECTLY BEAUTIFUL! I love this word choice.

"It's me," Taguchi said and smiled.
I can so see this ;A;

I love the snapshots of it. The way within a little snippet of dialogue is a miniature universe of a progression in Taguchi's spiral.

Taguchi grabbed it and tried to grind it into dust, but the only result was scratches on every surface.

He liked the scratches on the mirror the best
My heart really started to break about here.

"Taguchi," Nakamaru said, grabbing his shirtsleeve.

Taguchi looked at him with a frosty smile.

"I'm worried," Nakamaru said softly.

"Me too," Taguchi replied.

The Tagumaru in this is so understated and yet so brilliantly-crafted. I kept re-reading this line and Maru's concern and Junno's inability to see all that concern around him, being thoroughly blinded by his own hollow pain.

"Fix me," Taguchi whispered hoarsely.
I LOVE all the dialogue in this. I just need you to know that. It's jarring without saying much.

He knew how, he knew when.

It was just a matter of time.
Just so exquisite

Everything exploded into ribbons of searing brightness the moment he heard her voice
Dear LOOOORD~~ D:

I haven't enough words for how this caught me and made me ~feel~. It was a good kind of torture and I'm going back to read and read this because it was done brilliantly and you're very talented. You're amazing. Please write Taguchi forever. I love LOVE it~
