Title: Everything About You

Characters/Pairings: Hayakawa Vito (Smile), MC Kamiyama (The Quiz Show 2), Shuichi (Ao no Honoo)
Summary: Solitary confinement is just that. Solitary.
Notes/Warnings: For JE Smut/Kink Meme Nov. '09. Spoilers for all three I suppose. Character death.
Solitary confinement is just that. Solitary. He has four walls and the things he’s tacked up on his board. He’s been judged to have good behavior, and his reward, much as he feels he isn’t worthy of anything positive, is an hour of television a week.
The guard rolls the TV in and sits in the room with him. It’s the same hour every time, and the guard’s a fan of a quiz program. Vito doesn’t get to see many people - just the usual guard rotation and now, MC Kamiyama. He’s not a fan of the program. It’s cruel to expose people’s darkest secrets and call it entertainment. But the guard loves it, slapping his knee and chortling every time Kamiyama reveals someone’s dirty past. Vito just wants to read.
But when the TV’s gone and the laughing guard with it, MC Kamiyama doesn’t exactly leave. Vito’s alone the majority of the day and entirely alone at night, and on TV night he tends to wake with his blanket twisted and his hand down his pants, begging for the quiz program host to expose his darkest desires.
“I know everything about you,” he imagines Kamiyama whispering in his ear as he strokes himself roughly. “The things you would never tell Hana.” The things he did when he was younger in the gang, how he might have enjoyed some of it. And how having taken a life sometimes makes him want to take his own.
He always comes before Kamiyama tells the audience, smirking at him while Vito’s holding back tears and reaching for the thin, scratchy tissues from the box in his cell. “I know everything about you,” still echoes in his mind as he falls into a fitful sleep.

They’ve moved someone new to solitary. The guard likes to gossip. When the guy was a kid, he murdered his stepfather, murdered a friend. It had been all over the news years ago, but Vito had forgotten. Now the guy’s next door on permanent suicide watch - that’s why they’ve moved him here.
The guy had tried to kill himself, throw himself in front of a truck, to avoid the shame of capture. He’d almost succeeded. Instead he stood trial and faces death the same as Vito. But this guy is different from him, the guard always says with a frown. This guy doesn’t regret what he’s done.
When Vito’s in the yard, getting his short allotted time with fresh air, he hears the guy screaming. “Probably tried bashing his head against the wall again,” the guard tells Vito. He doesn’t regret what he’s done, killing two people, but he seems unwilling to face the punishment he deserves.
They try an experiment. They bring the guy into Vito’s cell for TV night. Of course, they’ve got him sedated and strapped down, and Vito tries not to make eye contact with him. MC Kamiyama’s dancing in his tuxedo, exposing people’s lies, and Vito wonders what secrets are in Shuichi’s head. Why isn’t he ashamed of the things he’s done? Why is he happy to have murdered two people in cold blood?
Shuichi is entranced by the television, eyes glassy while the guard laughs when the guest loses the Dream Chance round. Vito knows everything he’s done - knows that he killed Hayashi to protect Hana. He regrets the killing with every part of his being, but if he hadn’t done it…
Maybe Shuichi killed to protect someone. Maybe there was someone worse than Hayashi Seiji. Maybe that’s why Shuichi has no regrets for the things he’s done.
He wakes in the middle of the night again, hand around his cock, and he sees MC Kamiyama quizzing Shuichi. “D,” Shuichi says. “If I didn’t kill him, he would have hurt someone special to me.”
“Correct,” MC Kamiyama says in Vito’s mind, just as arrogant as ever. “Shuichi, we’ll be fulfilling your dream. We’re going to let you escape.”
Vito’s crying when Kamiyama’s voice brings him to release, sticky and warm across his stomach.
--
The guard doesn’t even sound surprised when he comes in the next day to say that Shuichi is dead. He’d requested something to eat, something he was deathly allergic to. Vito can only sit in silence and wait for the guard to roll the TV in next week.
