Theme set: Delta
Title: Pandora (All Gifted)
Rating: PG
Warning[s]: Implied character death
Notes: Inspired by kemu songs, someone's fic (about the two being drunk) and Defying Gravity.
#01 - Air: It was too hard-Akashi couldn’t see-he wanted to pull away-it wasn’t letting go-he couldn’t handle being trapped while Kuroko was being suffocated.
#02 - Apples: The forbidden fruit, and Akashi offered it to Kuroko, who accepted without thinking, and now he was trapped with Akashi, and the smile that he gave was not unlike that of a mischievous fox who didn’t really understand the consequences; even then, Kuroko couldn’t find it in himself to forgive Akashi, nor could he ever forgive himself for his stupidity.
#03 - Beginning: Akashi hadn’t expected to meet his friend, Kuroko, here with nothing but the clothes on his back, and he was not expecting to actually like the boy that had offered a hand, but he decided that Kuroko was a beautiful person, both inside and out, and Akashi decided that Kuroko would be a decent friend to keep around.
#04 - Bugs: Bees buzzed around them, and it was annoying, but Akashi smirked when Kuroko scooted closer to him subtly; even then, it wasn’t subtle enough to go past Akashi’s notice, but he would never say that out loud to Kuroko.
#05 - Coffee: Akashi made a face as he drank his drink, the taste something he hadn’t really acquainted himself with, while Kuroko continued to sip on his vanilla shake; vanilla coffee, despite what Kuroko said, wasn’t all that good.
#06 - Dark: It was impossible to see, and Akashi wanted to curl into a ball, but he held firm and stared ahead; there was nothing but a voice reminding him that it was his fault, that he caused Kuroko to resort to this, to become this monster that was wreaking havoc over the village, his home (never Kuroko’s, the one outcasted, the one who was forced to be the sacrifice for a demon who taught him too much, who gave Kuroko the power to decimate the village that hated him, that despised his heritage.)
#07 - Despair: “I’d sooner buy defying gravity,” Kuroko sang softly, and Akashi couldn’t help but think it was his fault as he watch his lover (former lover) throw himself off the edge of the building, and no one ever really noticed he was gone until a week later.
#08 - Doors: There is no escape, and he knows this too well, but it doesn’t stop Akashi from trying to escape, and it doesn’t stop him from wanting to leave.
#09 - Drink: Kuroko wasn’t the best drunk; he was too much like Akashi, and the rest of the group didn’t know if the appearance of another Akashi, especially when they were making out.
#10 - Duty: Akashi knew that he was expected to have a child with a woman, to take over the corporation, but he didn’t want that if Tetsuya wasn’t there with him; he even made sure to tell that to his parents.
#11 - Earth: They knew that in the end, there was nothing to separate them, even when they died, but it still hurt to know that Akashi was being buried before him, but Tetsuya knew that he would be there soon enough.
#12 - End: “It’s over, Tetsuya.”
#13 - Fall: Kuroko tried to run, but the pain in his legs and knees made him topple over, and he was sure that he was to be killed, but a man with shocking red hair saved him, and he offered a hand.
#14 - Fire: Akashi felt warmth, but the wind was whipping around him, and he should have felt the biting cold, but he didn’t, so he accepted it as something that was unnatural, but natural to him (never suspecting his companion as the source of warmth.)
#15 - Flexible: “I’d rather not know, Tetsu.”
#16 - Flying: Despite what Akashi thought, Tetsuya managed to defy gravity, and he was happy, extremely so, when he arrived at a home where he could forget everything-family, former lovers, former friends.
#17 - Food: Kuroko knew one thing; he would never allow Akashi to ever cook again.
#18 - Foot: He didn’t really look, but it seemed as if he was staring ahead, walking with confidence even when he really wanted to just bury himself in his bed and sleep to forget the pain of betrayal (of seeing his lover with another person similar but better than him.)
#19 - Grave: Akashi watched with horror as Tetsuya’s coffin was shown-the Generation of Miracles hadn’t kept contact for a while but even then, Akashi had suspected that he would know if (when) something major happened to one of them; he wasn’t pleased to find out that he was wrong, especially in this fashion.
#20 - Green: Envious, that’s what he was; Akashi didn’t like that Kuroko allowed his friends to hang off of him, to touch him, to receive his kindness, but he didn’t say anything because Akashi also knew that Kuroko wouldn’t like it.
#21 - Head: “I think that everyone should stop and think this through before they attempt it,” Kuroko said, as if he was meant to listen to his teammates’ plans that involved spying on him.
#22 - Hollow: Akashi didn’t know why he felt so empty after saying those words to Kuroko, but he didn’t think that it would affect him years later when he saw his friend with someone, laughing and smiling in a way he never did before.
#23 - Honor: Akashi won, and he felt no remorse for winning the way he did; victory was everything, and if he had to resort to underhand techniques, then that was fine (he ignored the voice in his head that said he shouldn’t have destroyed Kuroko’s spirit so harshly.)
#24 - Hope: Kuroko wanted to think, believe, that their victory against Rakuzan, but the rational part of his mind rejected the idea.
#25 - Light: “I wish to be the shadow that makes you shine brighter.”
#26 - Lost: Akashi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as Kuroko frantically paced, obviously worried about his puppy that decided that adventuring without his owner was the best idea ever; Akashi didn’t like the puppy, didn’t really care for dogs, but seeing Kuroko worried and being neglected made him wish for the dog’s appearance.
#27 - Metal: The blade felt nice against his wrist, but Kuroko knew that going against the God that destroyed his world would be better; revenge would taste sweet when he stabbed God (for Akashi, for the Generation of Miracles.)
#28 - New: Akashi couldn’t be seen by anyone, and he had a new appreciation for Kuroko; he didn’t realize how painful it was to be forgotten and invisible.
#29 - Old: “There’s a story about this boy,” Aomine began, “Who was hated by the world; rumor has it that he and another boy left the village to venture out, but they said that he just disappeared into the sunset,” not knowing that he was speaking to the reincarnations of the boys.
#30 - Peace: “I wanted a peaceful life, not this,” Kuroko griped, wanting to cry as he stared at his friend’s dead body.
#31 - Poison: “Didn’t you know that was the price,” the girl replied, not feeling a bit remorseful of Akashi’s lost life or Kuroko’s despair.
#32 - Pretty: “The sunset’s nice, but I wished you were here to see it with me.”
#33 - Rain: “It surely will rain tomorrow,” the text said, and Akashi told Kuroko that he should believe it.
#34 - Regret: “I want to redo my life so that I don’t lose anyone.”
#35 - Roses: He pricked his finger, and he watched, almost fascinated, as he bled; this was Akashi’s present, and it was so like him-Akashi was pleasant to look at, but he was vicious and violent, and wouldn’t hesitate to hurt anyone.
#36 - Secret: There was nothing to be said; Akashi couldn’t say anything to his family, and Kuroko’s family didn’t care, and their friends were too nosy, so they never told anyone.
#37 - Snakes: Akashi groaned as Kuroko stared at the boa constrictor evenly, not even batting an eyelash as the creature was moved closer.
#38 - Snow: “It’s cold now, Akashi-kun; I wish you were here with me.”
#39 - Solid: He felt heavy weight against his back, but Kuroko accepted that Akashi would be the person to push his weight onto him.
#40 - Spring: “Tetsuya, when will you bear my child?”
#41 - Stable: Their relationship teetered between unhealthy and healthy, but neither cared.
#42 - Strange: “Tetsuya, are you okay,” Akashi asked in a queer moment of kindness, and Kuroko was tempted to throw the question back to him; Akashi never really cared so much for one’s physical status.
#43 - Summer: “Akashi-kun, why are you staring at me,” Kuroko asked as he stripped to his boxers.
#44 - Taboo: “We will never talk about that night, agreed?”
#45 - Ugly: The horrible, hideous truth was that he was too afraid to say anything, and he lost his chance when he said nothing.
#46 - War: Everyone wanted Kuroko, but Akashi wouldn’t (couldn’t) lose against his former teammates and Kuroko’s new teammates; everything is fair in love and war, after all.
#47 - Water: Akashi smirked as he could see through Kuroko’s soaked white shirt.
#48 - Welcome: “Okaeri,” Kuroko replied, waiting for his lover to come and kiss him.
#49 - Winter: His cheeks were red from the cold and Akashi’s confession, but he couldn’t help the slight tilt of his lips that indicated that he was not disgusted (and was in fact quite pleased) with the idea of Akashi wanting him.
#50 - Wood: “Why did you set the cabin on fire?”
