[#37] Happy Anniversary, Cyn~~
HAPPY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY
CYNICALISM!!!!!
It's embarrassing that this post is so late after the amazing post that Cyn gave me for our one year anniversary over here where she pretty much went through our frigging history. I sound funnier than I actually am, I swear. But anyway, it's our ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY, and you know. We, of course, had to go... er... all out. :D Although, in truth, I was so much more prepared for our two month anniversary, all those months ago. lol
So, Cyn made a little list (that's probably nowhere near comprehensive) of things she's written because of me, and you know what. I thought I'd retaliate, because, hey, as though she hasn't had as bad an effect on me as I've had on her.
first of all, massu/maki as soon as we seriously start talking. I mean, really. I barely wrote het until her.
Pretty much all my tegomass drabbles are hers
Or hey, she just dominates all my drabble posts. IN GENERAL
And of course, Tegomassuki, but that goes without saying.
To get back to fic, ryo/massu/tego
the infamous jin/massu
more het in the form of yamapi/maki
my START on her wishlist. how she got me to write THREE things, I'm not quite sure. Oh and look, het. And with KAME. >.>
more tegomass
jin and sawajiri erika, who I don't even LIKE. Not really
massu/maki that apparently she liked. a bit.
oh, look more tegomass
and it's not written on THAT post, but when i posted it on my LJ, it was totally in connection to her.
And probably SO MUCH MORE that I didn't bother to go search for because there's probably so much.
So yes, I adore you, Cyn. Even if you somehow connivingly get me to write people I totally don't usually write, or hell, necessarily like. *laughs* But honestly, would I have it any other way? No. Never. I don't know where I'd be without you (probably wouldn't have written as much, most likely) and I'm awfully glad one of us took the steps to become closer friends. Oh wait, that was me.
Me: I have read way too many of your fics, would you mind if I friended you???
Cyn: But oh! Please go ahead! I'm floored, actually--I love your picspams and stuff! *___* Would you mind terribly if I friended back?
Me: Great!! I'm so glad. And I wouldn't mind you friending me back at all~
Cyn: And yay! ^^ ♥
And this was all the way on August 3rd. lol Maybe that's our real anniversary, but we consider it when we started MSNing. Anyway, I make brilliant decisions, don't you think? I'd been stalking her for months before, lol. What can I say? I loved her fic. <33333 And then I finally ask to friend her after reading a funny Tegomass where Tegoshi has his own Ai-Q quiz. :DDDD Yes, go read. It also has a little drabble at the bottom where Massu pretended to be dead and tried to scare people. lol Effective to some, but not to all? :D
Just. Yes. I love you, Cyn, dear~ The tea to my kettle. The Ryo to my Shige. ♥♥♥ (I feel like I'm missing another nickname there, but I'll leave it at that. lol)
51 (Drama) Couples Rain!Angels!Tegomass Get(s) Together
A/N: Characterization is shot, sorry. I haven't written JE (or drama fic) in ages. Again, just sorry for this load of. Something. T.T
Kurosagi
It's very rare for Massu to pick out a coupling of choice; most of the time, Tegoshi chooses the pairing of choice and Massu's more than okay to go along, because despite how strange and off-beat his choices tend to be, they ended up being the love story of a life time. But this one is one that Massu chooses - one that he's particularly insistent on.
Tegoshi frowns when Massu points out the two - arguing outside some apartment complex, the guy's eyes are obscured by his bangs, facing away from her, never looking her in the eyes - he rarely did. "Those two? Really?" Tegoshi asks, voice filled with reluctance.
Massu nods, face set. "Yeah. They're the ones I choose."
"Of all the couples to choose," Tegoshi mumbles before shrugging and looking on. Massu smiles before looking away and back at the two. The guy rushes up the stairs, leaving her behind. Wondering and watching.
"They fit," Massu declares to empty air. "Kurosaki and Tsurara are going to be my love story." Behind his back, Massu misses the sad look Tegoshi flashes in his direction.
--
Massu doesn't do anything special at first. He just observes and tries to figure out how he wants to approach things. He's not used to taking lead - Tegoshi has the plans. He always did. Tegoshi glances at him, blinking. "Is this okay?" He gestures at the couple bickering again right outside their apartment windows. Kurosaki is telling Tsurara to leave him alone, to stop being in his life, and Massu's frown only gets deeper. Massu knows better though - he can feel (as weird as it sounds) just how Kurosaki feels, knows just what's going through his head, and based off that, Massu (and Tegoshi) decides on the next move. Massu nods, just when the windows slam closed.
"Yeah," he replies. "It's okay. They need to go through this."
Tegoshi raises an eyebrow as Massu continues watching.
--
Time has no meaning to them. Months could pass in the blink of an eye without noticing and they did. Massu wasn't sure how it came to the point that Tsurara stopped being a staple in Kurosaki's life, but he didn't like it. Days passed without them talking - she was busy with school and he was busy swindling. Massu could see their paths intersecting again though, and this time, this time he wanted to push it along so it'd move faster.
"Now?" Tegoshi asks, grinning.
Massu laughs, shaking his head. "Yeah, go ahead." Tegoshi turns a knob right next to his cloud.
Right outside the apartment complex, Tsurara gets caught in the sudden downpour. She shrieks, ducking into the tunnel nearby and frowns up at the sky, as she tries to wring out some of the water from her clothes.
"Danced in the rain today?" a voice asks, footsteps echoing through the empty tunnel, mingling with the beating rain outside.
Tsurara spins around, catching sight of Kurosaki holding an umbrella and walking in her direction. She breathes. "Not something I make a habit of doing." She drops her hands from her shirt abruptly. Kurosaki smirks.
"So you just make it a habit of getting caught during rainy days without an umbrella?" he stops in front of her, and Tsurara has to stop herself from remembering how it feels being around him like this. She'd made a point of avoiding him lately, knowing they'd started to blur the line between their relationship.
"Also, not something I make a habit of doing," she says dryly. Tsurara looks back at the pouring rain, half hoping that it would've stopped in the few minutes it took for them to have the conversation. It hadn't, of course.
Kurosaki pushes his umbrella into her hands before stuffing his hands into his pockets and rushing off before she can even have another say. Tsurara bites her lip, half-hoping that just by doing that her heart will stop pounding. It doesn't, of course. She looks at Kurosaki's disappearing back, blurred by the falling rain. She inhales again before walking towards her apartment.
Tegoshi smiles at Massu. "Starting to go your way now?"
"Not completely, but it's a start," he muses, before gesturing for Tegoshi to stop the rain.
--
Massu doesn't often like using the arrows - neither does Tegoshi. They're both believers of free will and people should have control over who they fall in love with, but their purpose was never just that sole reason - to make people fall in love with each other. But to make the people more aware of the feelings they held, a little more than they had before. Massu aims his arrow at Kurosaki and shoots - he's never missed, and he doesn't start now.
Kurosaki sucks in his breath as he opens his apartment door, Tsurara the first face he sees. "What are you doing here?" he asks gruffly, startled by how close she was. She blinks at him, eyes filled with just as much surprise as he suspected his had.
"I-" she starts before exhaling. "You haven't been eating lately," she says weakly. "I haven't seen a hint of your ramen laying around, so I just thought-" she pauses before bending down to pick up a tray of food right next to his door. "I know last time..." Her voice falters and Kurosaki wonders why he's suddenly aware of how she's biting her lip, trying hard not to looking him in the eye. A practice that he's well accustomed to.
"Thanks," he says, surprising even himself. "I-" Kurosaki takes the tray from her hands and turns back into his apartment, shutting the door behind him. He blinks, slumping against the back of the door, and breathes. He swears he can hear the sound of Tsurara's footsteps slowly walking away. Licking his lips, he walks deeper into his apartment, the tray of food still in his hands.
Tsurara finds the dishes outside her apartment door, the next morning. A small sheet of paper on top of the plate says only one thing, "Thanks." She doesn't know if she should start hoping.
--
Tsurara doesn't know how they fall into arguments over and over again. It'd been a while since they'd actually had an argument so when she snaps at him for being so inconsiderate to some lady - she doesn't even remember who anymore - her heart squeezes tighter and tighter. "I don't know why I bother with you!" She exclaims, hair blowing into her eyes as she tries to ignore the sting of tears.
"Isn't the solution to that obvious?" Kurosaki sneers.
"You would just love it if I moved out, wouldn't you?"
In the clouds, Massu releases another well-aimed arrow. Tsurara's heart skips another beat as Kurosaki starts to walk towards her. He doesn't say a word, and Tsurara can't decipher the look on his face - maybe. She thinks she has an idea, but everything with Kurosaki sits on more than one level. He's about to pass her when he murmurs, "You already know that answer too."
Tsurara stops, spinning around as Kurosaki starts to jog up the steps. "It's because I still have feelings for you," she blurts out furiously. Kurosaki stops abruptly; he'd been moving to grab the hand rail, but his hand falls to his side, but he doesn't turn around. "Even to this day, logic aside, I still have feelings for you. I've tried to get away, I even stopped talking to you for a bit. But it doesn't help, nothing helps. In the end, I will always have feelings for you - want to help you, no matter what, because I care." Tsurara watches as Kurosaki slowly turns around, meeting her eyes.
"It's never easy," Kurosaki says simply. Tsurara blinks, and in that one second, Kurosaki manages to get back up the stairs and into his apartment.
She exhales, falling to the ground. It wasn't a yes, but it wasn't a no either.
Massu smiles before turning to Tegoshi. "Our work here is done."
Tegoshi blinks. "Eh!? They're not even-"
"This is as far as I can take them," Massu tells him, looking back down and watching as Kurosaki knocks on Tsurara's door, actually handing her the dishes. She looks at him, pleased, before telling him that it'd save them both the time if he just ate at her place. There's a pause before Kurosaki just walks back to his apartment, not saying a word.
The next second, Kurosaki's knocking at her door at 7. Tsurara smiles and tells him to come in, that dinner's ready. "I think I've done just as good as you usually do," Massu preens.
Tegoshi raises an eyebrow. "I'd have to disagree."
Massu rolls his eyes. "You would. You think your pairings are always better. Don't you think this was a love story to speak of?"
Tegoshi shrugs. "I guess, but I still think Tsukasa and Makino will never beat any thing else we do."
"It always comes back to those two, doesn't it?" Massu grumbles. Tegoshi preens.
